A comedy about contemporary art? My goodness, that
is an exciting prospect. (Untitled) stars Adam Goldberg as
misunderstood sound artist Adrian Jacobs, whose bizarre atonal music alienates his peers. His brother Josh (Eion Bailey) is an artist as well, painting friendly, unassuming abstract ...

Seeing how much I enjoy movies about ladies
and movies about road trips, I figured the rare
combination of those two would be perfect for me. In Thelma & Louise , the eponymous duo are best friends attempting a temporary escape from their boring lives and significant others for a weekend ...

I saw the Harry Potter exhibition at Boston's
Museum of Science this weekend, and afterward all my
mom, grandma, and I wanted to do was hang out and watch the movies. We sat down for Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone , which I hadn't seen for years, and I found myself able to be both more ...

I guess this movie is based on a
true story. Huh. After his wife leaves him, small-town
journalist Bob Wilton (Ewan McGregor) decides to go to Iraq to report from the front, with the hope he'll prove himself more manly and useful. He ends up crossing the border into the country with Lyn ...

was Bridget Jones's Diary , because we love England,
Colin Firth, and Jane Austen. Bridget (Renée Zellweger) is a thirtysomething "singleton" who works for a London publishing house. At Christmas, her pushy mother (Gemma Jones) introduces her ...

My housemate and I have recently admitted our
deep-seated guilty love of all things romantic comedy. I
am well aware of their many stereotypical and often sexist problems, but I can't it: sometimes I just really like to stop thinking for two hours while I watch a light-hearted romance with ...

Despite the disappointment of the first Mad Max
, I was ready to give the second one
a chance. These movies have to be famous for a reason, right? Set in a dystopian Australia that's fleshed out better than the first film (there's a severe oil shortage which leads to a destructive world war), ...

Excuse my cussing, but Holy Shit, Sunset Blvd
is phenomenal. I can't believe it took me this
long to see it, because if I had watched it years ago I could have seen it 20 times by now. Failing screenwriter Joe Gillis (Warren Holden) narrates the tale of the months leading up to his murder, ...

A neo-noir about privileged high schoolers? Assassination of
a High School President 's set-up is appealing, but
also impossible to watch and not compare to the near-perfect Brick . Aspiring young journalist and general dork Bobby Funke (Reece Thompson) is asked by the editor of the school ...

Come Halloween time, my housemates and I were
for some reason really in the mood for Hocus
Pocus , which held fond memories for us of younger, carefree days. In the much-mythologized, colonial Salem, Massachusetts, the Sanderson sisters (Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy) ...

Just in time for Halloween, I got to
see the creatively terrifying Pontypool . Set in a
basement radio station during a heavy snowstorm, the story examines how formerly-big-time talk radio personality Grant Mazzy (Stephen McHattie), his no-nonsense producer Sydney (Lisa Houle), and their ...

My mother visited last weekend, and, citing that
she hadn't seen a movie in theaters since Harry
Potter , I thought a French film about fashion and romance might be a good mother-daughter outing. Coco Before Chanel traces the early life of the famous designer, played with fervor by Audrey ...

After seeing Taken , I checked out Pierre
Morel's other film District B13 , which was highly
recommended by my associate . Set in a not-so-distant future in which certain areas of Paris have been sealed off by the government so that their slums and gang violence won't affect the rest of the ...
