With the ultimate backstage pass, documentarians Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky craft a long but interesting look at the lives of rock’s angriest band who, perhaps not surprisingly, have some demons to work out.
A virtually identical remake of the 1997 blockbuster which offers almost nothing new and suffers from a sloppy, unsubstantial plot and the loss of Vincent D’Onofrio as an interesting villain. Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones are fun as always, but the script feels like scenes that didn’t make the cut in the first film.
The Farrelly brothers’ schizophrenic new comedy doesn’t quite live up to its potential, but along the way it pushes the envelope of anally-obssesed humor, even by their standards.
Writer-director Christopher Nolan’s brilliantly crafted thriller which follows (in reverse) a man with no short-term memory on the trail of his wife’s killer.
If the Farrelly Brothers were able to make a family comedy it would look something like this over-the-top but nonetheless charming film about a disastrous meeting between a father and hopeful son-in-law.
SNL writer/co-star Tina Fey introduces the John Hughes genre to a new generation with a witty, knowing script and a perky performance by Lindsay Lohan as a homeschooler making her way through Junior year in high school. It’s not a classic, but it’s an above-average and refreshingly smart teen comedy.
Somehow, the Wachowski brothers finish what they started in "The Matrix Reloaded" without really denting the possibilities posed by the first film and, like an episode of ‘The X-files,’ more questions are asked than answered.
Even the mighty Wachowski brothers are not immune to their own hype as they unleash the sequel to their 1999 sci-fi phenomenon which raised the bar so high as to make even their own work seem passe.
Keanu Reeves plays Neo. This is usually the point where I would mention something about his character, but really what’s the point?
Director Peter Weir adapts Patrick O’Brian’s series of novels into an intelligent, old-fashioned sea epic with Russell Crowe ably taking the helm. What it lacks in political accuracy it makes up for in sea-faring authenticity.
