Mama Review
Though it suffers from the standard cliches of the genre, this horror flick from executive producer Guillermo del Toro is still plenty spooky.

Less a historical retelling than a shoot-em-up video game, with blood splattering across the room. That’s not a bad thing.
"The Sopranos" creator David Chase hits the big screen. It’s in New Jersey and James Gandolfini is the patriarch, but that’s where the similarities end in this love letter to rock and roll.
Is it brilliant or just "Inglourious Basterds" without the Jewish bear? Perhaps a little of both.
It’s Christmas time and that can only mean one thing: another cloying, manipulative family film for the holidays.
For an adaptation with 17 novels to choose from, this Tom Cruise vehicle holds few surprises.
It’s money grubbers vs. tree huggers in Gus Van Sant’s quietly compelling new film.
Like marriage, Judd Apatow’s latest about a couple reaching the big Four-Oh is an endurance test.
Kathryn Bigelow’s painstaking account of the events that led to the killing of Osama bin Laden favors dramatization over character and suspense.
Michael Haneke’s latest falls a tad short of "The White Ribbon", but that only means it is far better than most everything else you have seen this year.
