Review:
It is what it says it is, a Jonas Brothers concert film in 3D.
That earns the movie one star just for truth in advertising. I
doled out a second star because director Bruce Hendricks had the
taste to steal from A Hard Day’s Night in the off-stage
scenes […]

Review:
It didn’t grab me. Not at first. A documentary that tracks the
winner of a reality show — in this case Bravo’s Project
Runway — after his victory. Huh? But Eleven
Minutes busts a few fresh moves.
For starters, designer Jay McCarroll — proudly gay, chubby
and opinionated — knows […]
Starring:
Isla Fisher, Hugh Dancy, Joan Cusack, John Goodman, John Lithgow
Review:
Maybe I’m defining the term “faint praise” by saying that
Confessions of a Shopaholic is marginally better than this
young year’s other chick flicks (Bride Wars, New in
Town and He’s Just Not That Into You). But it’s a
treat having world-class charmer Isla Fisher ease us through […]
Starring:
Clive Owen, Naomi Watts, Armin Mueller-Stahl, Brian F. O’Byrne
Review:
Consider this a warning to Nazis, dictators, religious fanatics
and global terrorists. You just got downsized. There’s a new breed
of varmint ready to blast it out at the Obama Corral, if that’s
what it takes to hold tight to their stock options and megabonuses.
Yup, I’m talking bankers. […]

Review:
It’s not just the 3-D glasses that add an extra dimension to the
horror and hilarity of Coraline. For those who can’t see
themselves forking over hard cash to stare at a cartoon about an
11-year-old brat (Dakota Fanning voices Coraline) whose neglectful
parents (Teri Hatcher, John Hodgman) move her […]

Review:
What’s a father to do when his virginal teen daughter (Maggie
Grace) is kidnapped in Paris and sold off to a white slavery
market? If the father in question is Liam Neeson as CIA agent Bryan
Mills he becomes a one-man killing machine, going medieval on the
ass of […]

Review:
Wasn’t it bad enough the first time (back in 2006) gaping at
Steve Martin trying to clone the stumbling gait and terrible French
accent of the great Peter Sellers as Inspector Clouseau? There has
to be a sequel? Except for the unholy god of box office, there is
no […]
