By Rossiter Drake (Jul 16, 2009)
Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars.

“This is the story of boy meets girl.” So begins the bittersweet odyssey of greeting-card writer Tom Hansen, the love-starved twenty-something in (500) Days of Summer who harbors dreams of becoming an architect and romancing puckish co-worker Summer Finn. More

Ten Millenia Away From Being A Great Film...
By Matt Forsman (Mar 7, 2008)
The first summer blockbuster (yes, it’s a few months premature) hits the screens this week with the knuckledragging, mastodon hunting, prehistoric epic 10,000 B.C. This one fastidiously checks off every requisite item on the summer blockbuster list. Giant mastodons, saber-toothed tigers, vicious velociraptor-like birds, amazing action sequences, and some great CGI form the foundation of 10,000 B.C. Unfortunately, all of these things don't necessarily add up to a great film. More

It's Not All German
By Stefan Gruenwedel (Jan 11, 2006)
January often marks the beginning of the doldrums of cinema because the studios have already released their Oscar contenders for the past year. For a change from the bland, check out the 11th Annual Berlin & Beyond Film Festival, which features innovative films from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. More

Kids Doing the Darndest Things
By Rossiter Drake (Jun 23, 2006)
Clearly, Michael Cuesta is fascinated by the lives of children who are thrust too soon into adulthood, whether by choice or by circumstance. In his first feature, 2001’s L.I.E., he studied Long Island teenagers whose lives had been shaped by their dealings with sexual predators. His latest, 12 and Holding, is only slightly less jarring. It examines three children, all saddled with parents who are incapable of providing them with sensible guidance. Left to their own devices, they take matters into their own hands, often with startling results. More

Halloween house party
By Anhoni Patel (Aug 20, 2004)
Want to see a scary movie for Halloween? Itching to grab your date with adrenaline-infused fright? Not satisfied with watching a cheesy feel-good flick? Well, you have a number of films from which to choose; horror movies and thrillers have fast become the genres du jour. 13 Ghosts is one of the latest movies to explore the concept of the haunted house. Directed by Steve Beck, it's a remake of the 1960 William Castle film of the same name. More

A Waking Nightmare
By Rossiter Drake (Jun 22, 2007)
During his recent stint as a guest columnist for Entertainment Weekly, Stephen King has made little secret of his fondness for “Lost”, the ABC drama that pits the survivors of a plane crash against supernatural forces that are at once thrilling and supremely confounding. This should come as no surprise to fans of King’s stories -- he has always been fascinated by the mysteries of life, the extraordinary phenomena that can’t be explained away with logic or reason, and he has spent his career translating that wonder into tales of the merrily macabre. More

Better Than It Has Any Right To Be
By Mel Valentin (Mar 2, 2006)
Despite formulaic plot turns, an overly familiar premise and a languid, by-the-numbers climax and denouement, Richard Donner's (Conspiracy Theory, Lethal Weapon 1-4, Superman I-II, The Omen) latest effort, 16 Blocks, proves to be a tightly directed, highly engaging, suspense- and tension-filled cop thriller/urban action flick. Plus, with Bruce Willis and Mos Def as a mismatched duo on the run from corrupt cops, entertaining diversions are sure to follow. More

Glory Days
By Martin Malloy (Apr 17, 2009)
Rating: 3 out of 5 stars.

As a mid-20s guy who loves a good Ingmar Bergman or Orson Welles, I have to admit that I kind of enjoyed 17 Again. It's not necessarily a good movie, but it has enough amusing moments to hold one's attention most of the time. Granted many of those moments came from Thomas Lennon (Reno 911), who played the quintessential nerdy, comic relief friend, but despite being cookie cutter the film is better than most in the same genre. More

A Promising Debut
By Mel Valentin (Aug 24, 2007)
Written, directed by, and starring Julie Delpy, 2 Days in Paris, a romantic comedy/drama set in (where else) Paris, is a surprisingly effective, insightful exploration of romantic relationships, cultural differences, and how the two, when mixed together, can cause serious problems. More
