However, after watching The Da Vinci Code, I caught a glimpse of possible scenarios concerning Christianity and its past and future. But then, this is just a movie and filmed for entertainment. And on that premise, I can honestly say that I loved the movie. Fast-paced and unpredictable. Great cast and a superb director."

That being said, the film is enjoyable to watch and a great addition to the growing universe of Star Wars. And if this is any indication, I would say Solo could end up Howard's best film ever."

John Nash is a great man with his inner demon and Crowe brought it out magnificently on screen. I didn't know it was helmed by Ron Howard until I stumbled into this site. And now I want to get a copy of this film!"

A Beautiful Mind - #4June 13, 2018"Ron Howard did a great job on Cinderella Man. Not only because of the fight scenes. He captures the real story of the Great Depression. Russel Crowe and Renee Zellweger brought their characters to life with their performances. Oh, Paul Giamatti was also great in this one. 5 stars for me!"

Cinderella Man - #5June 13, 2018"Well, the first two Robert Langdon films worked so it's not surprising that Inferno will also be a good film? Tom Hanks really owned Langdon and it seemed that Dan Brown created this character with Tom Hanks in mind. With Ron Howard, this movie would make many more "best list.""

Inferno (2016) - #6June 2, 2018"Ron Howard has truly emerged as on of the greatest film makers of our time and his offering In the Heart of the Sea offers more proof to support this statement. Strikingly beautiful, In the Heart of the Sea is a sweeping epic that is very well cast and acted. Two thumbs up."

In the Heart of the Sea - #7June 13, 2018"Well, Jim Carrey was in his element in Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas so it is an indication that the movie itself would be good. But it wouldn't be half as good, in my opinion, if another director took this project. Ron Howard brought the book to life!"

Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas - #8June 13, 2018"Tom Hanks is back as Robert Langdon. Angels & Demons follows the tradition of The Da Vinci Code with its fast-paced action and unpredictable twist. Forget about what you know about religion and just watch this film."
