Whenever America becomes obsessed with something, there are side effects. When we went nuts for IPiratesI a couple of years ago, for instance, the market was suddenly and inexplicably flooded with pirate-themed porn movies. And now were obsessed with vampires and since vampire porn has already ...

Id like to give this film zero stars, but it seems a bit unfair to give a film zero stars simply because it doesnt succeed at anything. Not sucking can sometimes be half the battle. Nothing about this film downright sucks. Its like Andre Agassi with normal hair. He looks great with the bald ...

The word melodrama doesnt have much currency in movies these days, but in its best moments IBrothersI proves that the old genre can feel alive and well when done right. Even without major insight on its subject matter, the movie carries emotional heft thanks to stronger-than-usual performances ...

People were sobbing so loudly near the end of my screening of IEverybodys FineI I felt like quite the heel, sitting dry-eyed toward the back, mentally groaning every time another sentimental bow was tied around remaining plot threads. The movie is pretty much the IMarley and MeI of this holiday ...

A movie simply cant have the same lived-in feel as a novel, but all of Jacksons attempts at replicating it fall entirely flat. For fans of the novel, IThe Lovely BonesI isnt just a misfire, but a sad, pale replication of something that should be elegant and deep.

In one scene, someone calls Pippa Lee an enigma. She replies by saying, To be perfectly honest, Ive had enough of being an enigma. I want to be known. Well Pippa, dont get ahead of yourself because its the enigmatic elements that make IThe Private Lives of Pippa LeeI curiously ingenious. Based ...

Whenever the action stops, the movie becomes howlingly bad-- Matthew Sand and J. Michael Straczynskis script relies far too heavily on meager laugh lines about Mikas vanity or Raizos overconfidence, and its far more convinced by its serious moments than the audience ever is. But if the drama ...

Ive seen a lot of terrible, juvenile movies this year-- a IlotI, trust me-- and yet none of them really earned the description horrifying the way IOld DogsI does. Its not just that it stars Robin Williams and John Travolta, two actors who we know are capable of better, or that it relies on ...

For most epic films it would be horrifying to cut half of it, leave in all the action sequences, slap on some subtitles and release it for international audiences. But John Woos IRed CliffI, which screened in Asia as a five-hour cut, works pretty well in its breakneck two-and-a-half-hour cut

Ill come right out and say it: Richard Linklater is better than iMe and Orson Wellesi. Sure, the indie superstar and inspiration to many a director including Kevin Smith is responsible for quite a few mainstream movies, but none have ever been so boring and lifeless as this film. iSchool of ...

Is every extraordinary true story worth adapting to film? It seems as though weve heard everything before, especially when it comes to down-on-their-luck athletes defying the odds. Well, Michael Ohers story is pretty much just that, so the success of IThe Blind SideI will rest in your hands.

a little less serious as well. Its impossible to...
have a truly light touch with the material-- Stephenie Meyers writing prevents that entirely-- but Weitzs efforts result in a movie thats a little ...

Pet peeves are dangerous. They can be the tiniest of faux pas yet completely tarnish your impression of a person, restaurant or even a movie. Its clear from the start that ISerious MoonlightI is likely to be a serious drag, but the utterance of the phrase I could care less seals the deal. Its I ...

IBad Lieutenant: Port of Call New OrleansI has been done to twisted perfection. Herzogs maniacal movie refuses to flinch as it gleefully leaps into an underworld of degradation and despair in which our hero is barely a hero at all, even if he gets results. And in the end even if McDonagh gets ...

You know that feeling when youre doing something you shouldnt and are on edge about someone catching you in the act? Okay, enough dancing in circles. Have you ever watched porn in the privacy of your own room and been terrified that your mom will walk in and catch you? Of course you have! Thats ...

All the things you probably hate about traveling, says George Clooneys Ryan Bingham, are warm reminders that Im home. Ryan is a man in constant motion, a man who sees people as sharks which, should they stop moving, will die. He refuses to die and so he lives in the air, flying from one city to ...
