Movie Review: Defiance
Friday January 16, 2009
Daniel Craig will always be associated with the
James Bond film franchise having tackled the lead role in two highly successful Bond movies (with a few more on the horizon). Craig's superb as the super-spy and boy can he handle action scenes. But Craig's not just Bond. He's taken on a diverse collection of film roles over the past 15 years, delivering outstanding performances as a killer in
Infamous, a member of the Israeli team assembled after the massacre of Israeli Olympic athletes in
Munich, and a business man never referred to by name whose plans for retirement from the drug trade are put on hold in
Layer Cake. Craig adds yet another exceptional performance to his resume with his starring role in the dramatic thriller,
Defiance, set in 1941.

This one is made for kids and teens, and any adults who wander into the theater will just have to understand they're not the target demographic and deal with it or leave. Of course the fact the film's loaded with adorable, talented canines will help soothe any adult's ruffled feathers once they figured out they've been duped into seeing a kids' movie.
