Movies with cinematographer David Tattersall

Sitting down to watch Memory, I was prepared for yet another Liam Neeson-As-Righteous-Avenger movie (the kind of thing that has inexplicably become his bread-and-butter since the success of Taken). Much to my surprise, however, Neeson and director...

For Jackie Chan, The Foreigner represents a change of pace. Best-known for light-hearted action/comedies, Chan has never before descended to the level of darkness required by this film. In this thriller, directed by James Bond filmmaker Marti...

Revenge of the Sith is the most technically accomplished of all the Star Wars movies. Putting aside other important aspects of the cinematic experience (like storytelling, for example), it’s hard to argue that the special effects work in the th...

Seeking Justice is making a token theatrical stop on the fast track to home video (which is where the distributor, Anchor Bay, makes most of its money). A cheap and cheesy thriller that feels like it was (badly) adapted from a beach novel (although...

With the arrival of this "adaptation" of Gulliver's Travels, author Jonathan Swift must be spinning in his grave fast enough to make a top dizzy. If Swift was alive, no doubt he'd demand that his name be removed from the credits. Little of his sati...
