Max Payne 3 does a lot of things right — from the relentless, blood-soaked gunplay to HEALTH’s astonishing soundtrack.
Charlie Chaplin’s The Great Dictator, a masterpiece of both comedy and propaganda, is rightly regarded as one of the most important motion pictures ever made. Meaning it’s well worth watching in its own right.
