Finding Neverland(Hľadanie krajiny - nekrajiny) - Drama by Marc Forster. Johnny Depp portrays Peter Pan author James Matthew Barrie in this sad, but sweet and good-natured film. Barrie struggles to find a successful dramatic voice until he happens upon the widowed Sylvia Llewelyn Davies (Kate Winslet) and her four sons. Through one another, these five people create an alternate, more innocent world. At points a tad too sentimental, but in the end a thoroughly enjoyable and successful film featuring fine performances.

seemingly been waiting his entire career to complete the project. Everyone's favorite Scientologist/lovebird, Tom Cruise, stars as Ray Ferrer, regular guy, who's suddenly forced to save the world. Dakota Fanning and Tim Robbins also star.
Saw (Hra o prežitie) - Horror by James Wan. What begins as an intriguing chamber drama (literally) too quickly becomes a sloppy, by-numbers thriller. The premise of two strangers who find themselves chained in a dark, dirty basement is certainly interesting, but the subsequent plot developments, including some irritating flashbacks to familial melodrama and some "gritty" police procedure, suck all the life away.

"Do ľava," (to the left) I yelled, "Nie, do prava" (no, to the right), I gasped. "Dolšie," I screamed. "Nie, nie, horšie..." My Slovak girlfriend collapsed in laughter. Was it something I said?
