For 107 minutes, the film “The Art of Racing in the Rain” is based on the best-selling novel by Garth Stein, is a heartfelt tale narrated by a witty and philosophical dog named Enzo (voiced by Kevin Costner). Through his bond with his owner, Denny Swift (Milo Ventimiglia), an aspiring Formula One race car driver, Enzo has gained tremendous insight into the human condition and understands that the techniques needed on the racetrack can also be used to successfully navigate the journey of life. The film follows Denny and the loves of his life – his wife, Eve (Amanda Seyfried), their young daughter Zoe (Ryan Kiera Armstrong), and ultimately, his true best friend, Enzo.
It is a film full of emotions and characters have to face through life’s most difficult challenges. Death is a symbol of a kind life prolonged. Definitely, the story involves normal people in trouble emotionally and the dog was believable as a dog, a best friend, and an observer. Dogs are the best spiritual guides and soul protectors.

During 97 minutes, directed by Claudia Llosa “Aloft” is a journey through the power of the mind, a journey that forces us to confront the immensity of such concepts as love, order, chaos and faith. Jennifer Connelly, Cillian Murphy and Mélanie Laurent star in this character-driven and mythic film. Set in the immense, raw beauty of the Arctic north, Claudia Llosa jumps between the past and present to weave a magical and otherworldly tale of loss, grief, and forgiveness.
A mother who abandons her child for the common good; a son who abandons himself and his own ability to feel in order to bear the weight of tragedy; and a woman who abandons her life to follow her one obsession of curing herself. Three characters – complicated, human, flawed – reveal themselves to us, reflecting on the difficult balance of creating a full life while assuming its fragility and uncertainties.
ALOFT is a journey into a cathedral of healing and into a world full of belief and trust and has one of the best engaging stories. Connelly, Murphy and Laurent had the best roles in a well structured character in behavior and performances. In some moments, the viewer can feel unpleasant experiences with each character and emotions that distinguish the story so this film is a journey back to ourselves.

Terrence Howard, was successful with “Empire.”The show, filmed in Chicago and directed by Lee Daniels, saw unprecedented gains in viewership week after week, until second season despite the finale was so poorly written for some, for others the diversity was because it has heavily features members of many different ethnic groups on a regular basis, which it mostly does not, nor does it aim to. Terrance Howard is the best in his role and dynasty was great in its day empire is better and more realistic.

During 106 min. this great film (‘3 Coeurs’) with unique French style and contempo which involves a love triangle with a Parisian man Marc (Benoît Poelvoorde) who meets Sylvie (Charlotte Gainsbourg) after missing his train back to Paris. Instantly and intensely drawn to one another, they wander through the streets until morning in rare, almost choreographed, harmony. A thwarted plan for a second meeting sends each in a separate direction –Sylvie reunites with her ex and leaves France; Marc falls in love and marries.
What neither knows is that Marc’s new bride is Sylvie’s sister, Sophie (Chiara Mastroianni). Upon Sylvie’s return to France, the spark between her and Marc is reignited in ways that will forever alter the relationships between sister to sister and husband to wife.
This film reflects part of reality of life. Sometimes one moment changes our lives. Catherine Deneuve still looking quite remarkable. Many locations are settled in Paris and a provincial town south of Lyon. In general it’s powerfully emotional film that references great romances of the past. Even the whole film is spoken in French, you will have the English subtitles so some dialogues are more enjoyable in French; especially, if you understand the basics.
