Review For Absence | |
It's been 15 years - can we stop remaking "The Blair Witch Project" already? Joe Neumaier-New York Daily News Mundane conversations and outings drag on while the central mystery takes baby steps forward, suggesting that a shorter running time or a more developed script might have better served the originality of the premise. Jeannette Catsoulis-New York Times There are many things absent from this found-footage horror movie, including suspense, logic, and originality. Chuck Wilson-Village Voice There's nothing here the best entries in V/H/S didn't do better in 10 minutes or less, and with the decency to kill off their unbearable protagonists much faster. Keith Phipps-The Dissolve Imagine for a moment what someone like Roman Polanski could do with such a loaded nightmare scenario. And then marvel at how thoroughly it's wasted in this threadbare throwaway ... A.A. Dowd-AV Club Close Encounters of the Third Kind meets The Blair Witch Project. Hair-raising, chilling and riveting. It will scare the living daylights out of you. Avi Offer-NYC Movie Guru The lives of a small-town couple eagerly anticipating the birth of their first child are shattered when they lose the baby under suspicious circumstances in this creepy psychological thriller that plays out very differently than its early scenes suggest. Maitland McDonagh-Film Journal International The tension almost immediately leaks out of the narrative once we realize we're watching a found-footage horror movie. Chuck Bowen-Slant Magazine | |

Review For Avatar | |
Cameron's 'Avatar': Brainy & Beautiful Joe Baltake-Passionate Moviegoer The narrative would be ho-hum without the spectacle. But what spectacle! Avatar is dizzying, enveloping, vertiginous ... I ran out of adjectives an hour into its 161 minutes. David Edelstein-New York Magazine I had the feeling coming out of this movie that I haven't felt since maybe I was eleven years old in 1977 and I saw Star Wars for the first time. A.O. Scott-At the Movies It's a remote-control movie experience, a high-tech "wish you were here" scribbled on a very expensive postcard. Stephanie Zacharek-Salon.com The most-hyped movie of the year just about merits it. Amy Biancolli-San Francisco Chronicle Big money, big risk, pretty big reward. That's been his consistent pattern, and it's high time to give credit where credit is overdue: James Cameron delivers. Rick Groen-Globe and Mail Avatar showed me something I have never seen before. It reminded me of what movies can do, of what they're capable of, of what the experience of sitting down for three hours in a dark room can really mean. Will Leitch-Deadspin Cameron's $300 million baby is nothing but a 5- and 10-cent snore. Al Alexander-The Patriot Ledger This sci-fi epic would be a masterpiece if judged solely on its technical merits. Rob Humanick-Projection Booth Cameron is flexing his creative muscles, but the film never overcomes the nagging feeling that he's also simply going through the motions. Rob Humanick-Projection Booth Piercing the hype, Avatar may not be a "game changer", but I'll be damned if the game didn't just get a hell of a lot more interesting from here on in. Ali Gray-TheShiznit.co.uk While it wasn't the most original narrative, it serves the film well, even if it was merely a template for Cameron to show us this gorgeous world and its landscapes. Jeff Beck-Examiner.com Planet Pandora's plant and animal life is done with a wonder that has been often absent from fiction screens. Donald J. Levit-ReelTalk Movie Reviews It's both wildly original and hauntingly familiar, like Dances With Wolves in a galaxy far, far away. Neil Pond-American Profile It is far too long and the romance is half-hearted. Still, you'd have to travel very far to feel so fully immersed in another world. Stella Papamichael-Digital Spy It's good. It should have been better. Widgett Walls-Needcoffee.com It may not change the world, but it'll certainly provide enjoyment to many millions of people all over it. Mike Edwards-What Culture As a fantasy epic, Avatar is an undeniable victory ... but outside of the narrow confines of immersion he's managed, it's also quite limited. Joshua Starnes-ComingSoon.net The nature scenes are nothing short of magical in this film. James Plath-Movie Metropolis Spiritually moving, visually daring and emotionally stirring, Avatar is classic storytelling at its very best. R. L. Shaffer-IGN DVD "Avatar" looks amazing on Blu-ray. If the plot wasn't so pedestrian, it could have been a great film. Paul Chambers, CNN. Paul Chambers-CNNRadio If you ever wondered what a live-action Hayao Miyazaki film would look like, Avatar is a damn good approximation. Jeff Meyers-Metro Times (Detroit, MI) You can feel Cameron's anger and his passion every time a Na'vi roars. The most exhilarating moments are those when you can feel the director urging his actors to let go completely, to become furious, and to unleash hell. Simon Miraudo-Quickflix For all the justifiable knocks on James Cameron's writing, his personal investment in any project is never in doubt. With "Avatar," his passion for pushing the very possibilities of film as a medium pays off. Here's hoping we see him again before 2021. Nick Rogers-Suite101.com Avatar is a joyous celebration of story craft and the visual possibilities of cinema. Cameron had set his sights on taking the technology of film where no one had gone before. And he delivers. Avatar is stunning. Cameron and Peter Jackson's Weta Digital h Anne Thompson-indieWIRE | |

Review For Kevin Hart: Let Me Explain | |
Once Hart finally gets onstage his act can barely live up to the hype. J. R. Jones-Chicago Reader Any comic who can play the Garden must be good, but you wouldn't know it from this jumble of random routines and on-the-bus footage. Rafer Guzman-Newsday He tells elliptical stories that go on so long and take so many weird detours that they end up being funny even when they shouldn't be. Chris Nashawaty-Entertainment Weekly If you were to judge Let Me Explain purely on its performance portion, filmed at Madison Square Garden during Hart's 2012 tour, the film would merit a full extra star. But at 75 minutes, it feels too skimpy to rave over. David Hiltbrand-Philadelphia Inquirer Once Hart is on, he's hilarious; be warned, however, he takes a long time to get under way. Farran Smith Nehme-New York Post It packs plenty of laughs, which is ultimately what you want out of a stand-up film. Adam Graham-Detroit News I so wanted to be moved to genuine laughter, but it came in only fits and starts. Kimberley Jones-Austin Chronicle The Kevin Hart brand is clearly doing well, but Let Me Explain doesn't seem interested in providing anything more than a surface-level presentation of the product. Genevieve Koski-The Dissolve Hart nothing but a lightweight. Charles Koplinski-Illinois Times Kevin Hart works hard but is only funny with about 50% of his comedy routine. Jackie K. Cooper-jackiekcooper.com 'Kevin Hart: Let Me Explain' is really a laugh out loud experience that one can enjoy and come back for repeat viewings. Wilson Morales-BlackFilm.com The stories are mainly in the "b****es be crazy" category....entertaining enough, but we get a sense he can do more. Nell Minow-Beliefnet On the whole, Hart's material veers toward the lowbrow and doesn't quite hit the heights of cleverness, talent, language, or delivery that predecessors like Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy, and Chris Rock reached. Jeffrey M. Anderson-Common Sense Media Kevin Hart is indeed a talented comedian. This is just not his best material. Odie Henderson-RogerEbert.com Hart's comedy is the product of a brilliant acting performance. He uses his imposing physical and vocal skills to bring a paranoid, apoplectic madwoman to hilarious, side-splitting life. James Verniere-Boston Herald He is, maybe, a little too frenetic, too frequently at full speed. But when he gets rolling, the laugh lines come quick, one after the other, and he kills. David Haglund-Slate Hart, one of the most talented and successful comedians working today, can make you laugh. And laugh hard. In Let Me Explain, he's on fire. Drew Taylor-The Playlist We do get a solid 40 minutes of Hart's new routine, one that shows his transition from underdog entertainer to front-rank, stand-up star. Gary Thompson-Philadelphia Daily News A very funny showcase for one of today's top comics. Stephen Silver-EntertainmentTell It's not legendarily brilliant, but it's very funny. William Bibbiani-CraveOnline Kevin Hart turns his personal pain into comedy and back again in a celebratory performance about his life and work, one and the same. Marsha McCreadie-Film Journal International Let Me Explain finds Hart at the peak of his powers, so the film's long coronation feels justified, if gaudy. Strip away the preamble and just give him a mic, and he'd earn it all the same. Kyle Ryan-AV Club | |

Review For The White Ribbon (Das weisse Band) | |
As for Haneke's handling of the material, his directing is immaculate. Every moment is the product of a penetrating mind and a steady talent. Stanley Kauffmann-The New Republic The White Ribbon is a stark, contemplative and hauntingly brilliant film. Calvin Wilson-St. Louis Post-Dispatch Writer-director Michael Haneke doesn't pull any punches, but then he doesn't throw any wild ones, either. His filmmaking shows precisely the sort of obsession with control that the movie itself is denouncing. Interesting, you've got to admit. Tom Long-Detroit News Haneke tells this tale a bit too patiently for my taste. But the metaphors are unmistakable, as is the power of the film's message. Roger Moore-Orlando Sentinel The White Ribbon lunges hungrily for serious art-film credibility. Don't be fooled. Ann Hornaday-Washington Post Haneke has dramatized his intellectual conceits in an uninvolving, snail-paced movie that illustrates its themes in an obvious, almost banal manner. Rene Rodriguez-Miami Herald After reflecting on the film awhile, I found that I had been drawn into its beauty and its mystery too much not to give it at least a slight recommendation. Jeff Beck-Examiner.com This film is a total drag to watch. It is slow. It is dark. It is depressing, and it seems as though it is never going to end. It is torture to sit through this film. It runs 144 minutes and seems twice that long. Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope The White Ribbon is Michael Haneke's masterpiece. It is not a movie about abstract concepts or a director's power over his characters - well, at least it's not just about those things. Simon Miraudo-Quickflix Un inquietante cuadro social, filmado en riguroso blanco y negro, y una reflexión sombría y perturbadora sobre el origen del mal, o al menos de cierto tipo de males. Enrique Buchichio-Uruguay Total The White Ribbon is a striking, in many ways indelible work, and it's tempting to be carried away by Haneke's craft and assurance as a filmmaker. Jon Frosch-The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Up close, it's a blur of meticulous details that don't quite make sense; but step back and its towering ambitions become indelibly apparent. Matt Glasby-Flicks.co.nz A direct and simple human lesson -- that negative reinforcement creates negative consequences. Jeffrey Chen-Window to the Movies Haneke knows how violence seeps into every recess of our lives, and he evokes it not to titillate, but to engage and challenge James Kendrick-Q Network Film Desk Both sexes suffer from what Elias Canetti identified in his book Crowds and Power as 'the sting,' a psychological hurt (bullying, abuse) that must be exorcised in reenactment. [Blu-ray] Peter Canavese-Groucho Reviews Haneke makes his way through this complex and knotty subject matter with a staggeringly effortless grace. As an expression of philosophy, it's profound and thought-provoking; as a work of cinema, it is flawless. Ian Buckwalter-DCist ... while I appreciate... the unnerving atmosphere of punitive power and calculated cruelty under the carefully managed pose of piety, I find his sensibility sour and cynical... Sean Axmaker-Seanax.com Executed at an incredibly high level of craft and with an off-putting degree of self-confidence. Bryant Frazer-Film Freak Central As with most of Michael Haneke's films, a chill hangs in the air of The White Ribbon, the constant threat of upheaval eventually lulling you into a tired state of alertness. Kate Jinx-Concrete Playground Haneke has made a deeply unsettling and gravely beautiful film that tells us very little. But the performances are astonishing, and the faces of the children, caught in long, static close-ups, may haunt you for a long time. Evan Williams-The Australian A tantalising, perhaps slightly frustrating film, but a very impressive one. David Stratton-At the Movies (Australia) Unlike conventional thrillers, this film does not restore a moral order to the universe. Rather, it questions it. It must be seen. Julie Rigg-MovieTime, ABC Radio National At his best, as he is with White Ribbon, Haneke's fusion of art and ideas is unsurpassed. Mary Colbert-sbs.com.au These disturbing incidents pound the unsuspecting viewer into complete submission. The luminous beauty of the black-and-white cinematography framing the ugly world suggested here only serves to further shock the senses. Leigh Paatsch-Courier Mail (Australia) Far from enjoyable escapism, The White Ribbon is nonetheless utterly compelling and quite beautiful in its unsettling presentation of this prosaic evil.

Review For The Lone Ranger | |
Your expectations of how bad The Lone Ranger is can't trump the reality. Peter Travers-Rolling Stone Somewhere, around the hour-and-a-half mark, The Lone Ranger makes the fateful decision not to end. Worse, the movie keeps not-ending for another full hour. Christopher Orr-The Atlantic When it comes to mining boys' adventure stories, defaming pirates may be fair game, but stories about western justice and native Americans? Not so much. Liam Lacey-Globe and Mail Who, exactly, was this bipolar oater made for? Peter Howell-Toronto Star Director Gore Verbinski has adopted the more-is-better approach he used in the Pirates of the Caribbean series, crowding the movie with so many extraneous characters and subplots that the film becomes an endurance test. Rene Rodriguez-Miami Herald A wild, wacky, wide-screen reimagining of the vintage radio serial and TV series, the film - with Armie Hammer in the hat and mask, galloping across Texas righting wrongs, and Depp as his trusty Indian sidekick, Tonto - is an epic good time. Steven Rea-Philadelphia Inquirer As with most big films these days, The Lone Ranger is about 30 minutes too long...but when the Lone Ranger theme inevitably kicks in for the film's amazing train-borne action finale you can't help go all needles and pins. Jim Schembri-3AW The horse is funnier than Armie Hammer who plays the good soldier and lets everyone else around him make an impression while he languishes in bland-ville. Lori Hoffman-Atlantic City Weekly Disney spent over $200 million to prove The Lone Ranger is too old-fashioned for such a newfangled, smart-aleck world. Mark Keizer-Alt Film Guide The transformation of the title character from naive idealist to vigilante of justice is capped with a perfectly timed device that boosts the film with all its excesses and eccentricities to an exhilarating movie experience. Jules Brenner-Cinema Signals This irreverent and eccentric epic spoof/critique of American (and movie) history ignores Clayton Moore while embracing the unholy Mad Magazine cinephilia of the animated 'Rango,' the previous Western collaboration between Depp and Verbinski... John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) A decent- though not spectacular- summer spectacle that goes on for way too long. John Hanlon-Big Hollywood If I'd had anything to do with it, I'd be wearing a balaclava and writing under an assumed name. Christopher Tookey-Daily Mail [UK] There's no reason such a durable set of characters and tropes couldn't ride again. Verbinski and Bruckheimer just aren't the types to do the necessary streamlining. Scott Tobias-The Dissolve Even Depp Can't Raise Praise For This Film Diana Saenger-ReviewExpress.com It does have some entertainment value, but what is most notable in this movie are all the missed opportunities to make it a better film. Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope "Ranger" undone by schizophrenic tone. Charles Koplinski-Illinois Times The Lone Ranger staggers drunkenly from antic comedy to soulful solemnity to bloody horror without ever quite settling, or deciding what it is. Xan Brooks-Guardian [UK] A strange and fascinating and often thrilling movie artefact. Robbie Collin-Daily Telegraph Yeah...this was a mistake. Bob Grimm-Tucson Weekly This is a world too fanciful to be dragged down by anything as crucial as history-it's a world buoyed by faith, and for the faith you give it, it might buoy you right back. Sara Maria Vizcarrondo-Movies With Butter It's all weighed down further by a drippy title character who wants to be anything but the title character. Eric D. Snider-EricDSnider.com Mostly handsome, it sounds terrific, and when it wants to be exhilarating, it knows how to be; but the story is an epic disaster of bloat and confusion. Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy A film that is at once divinely silly, surprisingly deep and deceptively complex. Ken Hanke-Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) A fresh look at the Lone Ranger legend with Johnny Depp outstanding as Tonto. Jackie K. Cooper-jackiekcooper.com There's a solid story in here somewhere, but sadly it's suffocated under layers and layers of overindulgence. Jeff Beck-Examiner.com | |

Review For Despicable Me 2 | |
Co-directors Chris Renaud and Pierre Coffin, who do Minion voices expertly, never let up on the laughs. A fart joke in 3-D may not be three times as wacky, but the high spirits of Despicable Me 2 are irresistible fun. Peter Travers-Rolling Stone How do you tell a story about a bad guy who is no longer a bad guy? Despicable Me 2 embraces the dilemma and adds new ones. Nancy Churnin-Dallas Morning News As a sequel [it] stands level with the first film (also directed by Pierre Coffin and Chris Renaud), and may have the edge on it. Mary F. Pols-TIME Magazine [A] remarkably tepid sequel to the surprise 2010 hit ... Bruce Ingram-Chicago Sun-Times If you're looking for quality prepackaged, predigested Hollywood family fun this summer, you could do a lot worse than Despicable Me 2. Tirdad Derakhshani-Philadelphia Inquirer "Despicable Me 2" is light on its feet, visually inventive and very fast with the repartee. It requires actors who can pull off the many peppery lines at warp speed and in that the film is lucky with its voice cast. Betsy Sharkey-Los Angeles Times Ranks as one of the best animated sequels of all time. Bruce Bennett-Spectrum (St. George, Utah) If the first film was in some ways a re-imagining of Seuss, with a grinchy Gru's heart growing from two sizes too small to one too large, Despicable Me 2 continues his rehabilitation from complete societal outlier to minion-infested community fixture. Michael Burgin-Paste Magazine The assumption seems to be that the public can't get enough Minions. Despicable Me 2 sets out to test that assumption to its absolute limit. Tasha Robinson-The Dissolve Likable characters, inventive visuals buoy "Despicable 2." Charles Koplinski-Illinois Times There's still an attempt at the playfully naughty misanthropy, but it feels tired and worn. Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy Everything that is good about it-including those wonderfully nattering minions who have even more screen time and play a bigger role in the narrative-is what was good in the first film, so there isn't any sense of growth or expansion James Kendrick-Q Network Film Desk Good film about family values Diana Saenger-ReviewExpress.com I guess it shouldn't be a surprise that a watered-down premise would get even blander in the sequel, but it's disappointing to see just how far it's fallen. Eric D. Snider-Twitch It's not that the movie is unlikable. It's that it feels like a trip through a random checklist of things that played well in the first film. Ken Hanke-Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) Let's hear it for the minions - they make this movie and are the real stars of the show. Jackie K. Cooper-jackiekcooper.com I laughed harder and more often than in any movie I have seen so far this year! Austin Kennedy-Film Geek Central Sure, the pat Hollywood ending is a foregone conclusion, but nobody's complaining when the roller coaster ride is so thoroughly enjoyable! Kam Williams-AALBC.com It has quite a reputation to live up to due to its predecessor, and while it doesn't quite reach the heights of the previous film, this is still a very enjoyable and silly sequel that is a welcome return to the characters we've come to know and love. Jeff Beck-Examiner.com For the most part, Despicable Me 2 is amusing and cheerful, but it lacks the mild-cheddar edge that made the first film stand out -- moments like when Gru inflates a balloon animal for a sad boy, only to then pop it himself. Matt Brunson-Creative Loafing Yes, the Minions rule, and I look forward to their spin-off movie. But I need to care about Gru, and I don't. Luke Y. Thompson-Topless Robot Turning Dr. Evil into Austin Powers ... is the best possible way to keep the reformed character from losing his mojo. (Oh, how Mike Myers has influenced this discussion!) Steven D. Greydanus-Decent Films Guide What makes this another winner is that there are more than enough subversive chuckles to balance out the sugar. It is almost impossible to not smile through the duration of the movie. Michael Smith-Tulsa World ...Just as charming, hilarious, clever, and well paced as its predecessor. Steve Crum-Video-Reviewmaster.com It feels like a typical sequel that rehashes bits and pieces from the original with tweaks, like making the minions and their hijinks more central to the story.

Review For The Ugly Truth | |
We're left with a few giggles and the option to be offended by the gender stereotypes - if we can be bothered. Anna Smith-Time Out I think it's safe to say that the concerns about sexism in cinema that Heigl voiced so ardently after her career-making turn in Knocked Up have ebbed in direct proportion to the increases in her subsequent paychecks. Christopher Orr-The New Republic It's just not believable. Ben Lyons-At the Movies The Ugly Truth has a nice moment here and there, but there is much more ugliness than truth. Ben Mankiewicz-At the Movies Aside from being relational science-fiction, The Ugly Truth feels about 150 years out of date -- or it would, if the script weren't so clinically dependent on the topics of masturbation and genitalia and raunch. Michael Phillips-Chicago Tribune Say no to Hollywood hackery and cynical, demographic-courting filmmaking. Say no to movies made by people who condescend and treat you like bleating sheep. Say no to The Ugly Truth. Rene Rodriguez-Miami Herald The screenplay is written by three females, who write women like they hate them and men like they've never met a real one. Ali Gray-TheShiznit.co.uk The ugly truth about this film is that it may convince males out there that it's okay to be a pig. James Plath-Movie Metropolis [It] attempts to be hip and edgy by featuring plenty of discussions about boy parts and girl parts and how they become friends with one another. However, the makers of this film clearly have no idea about how men and women actually interact. Simon Miraudo-Quickflix If all you need is a fix of puerile smut and puddle-deep romantic giggles and can't wait for the next episode of Two and a Half Men, The Ugly Truth should do the trick. Simon Foster-sbs.com.au The Ugly Truth has all the honesty and romance of an Axe body spray commercial. Mark Pfeiffer-Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema ...there's no finesse or scarcity to lend impact to the vulgarity. It's handled with all the craftsmanship of an infant wielding an arc welder. Rubin Safaya-Cinemalogue.com A putative romantic comedy about the fundamental differences between men and women, it reduces both genders to emotional cripples while failing to find any humor in the situation. Andrea Chase-Killer Movie Reviews ...a mildly diverting yet thoroughly uninvolving romantic comedy... David Nusair-Reel Film Reviews click for the full review Joseph Proimakis-Movies for the Masses As a girls'-night-out movie for those in the right frame of mind, it gets some laughs, even a few big ones. But this opposites-attract comedy is wildly uneven: There are long stretches of down time, and some of the humor is so crude it backfires. Matt Soergel-Florida Times-Union Apparently, the ugly truth is that neither sex needs or deserves respect. How romantic. The 'Sex and the City' gals would be proud. Bruce Bennett-Spectrum (St. George, Utah) Formula can be fun, as it is here. Michael Dequina-TheMovieReport.com This lackluster, stereotypical movie attempts to update its shopworn formula with a stream of four letter words and sexually crude phrases in Judd Apatow fashion but ends up turning off everyone in the process. Richard Knight-Windy City Times Allowing the characters to talk dirty adds nothing to the chick flick formula. Jeffrey Westhoff-Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) THE UGLY TRUTH isn't as painfully predictable as THE PROPOSAL, and it's funnier too. That doesn't mean it's a complete success. I never really wanted the two leads to end up with each other, and the transition in which they fall in love is clunky. Austin Kennedy-Sin Magazine Yet another wearying "battle-of-the-sexes" romp that's sure to please dumb people but didn't please me. Gregory Weinkauf-Huffington Post Daring and dirty, making it so delicious. Jolene Mendez-Entertainment Spectrum Heigl is said to have fallen out with Apatow since the making of Knocked Up.

Review For Grease | |
The screenplay is a prepubescent shambles, the direction is by acne out of disposable douches, the dubbing and looping of the songs is painfully obvious, the characterizations are generally repulsive and the whole thing is utterly without style. John L. Wasserman-San Francisco Chronicle Travolta is a riot. Alternately swaggering to prove his "coolness" and re-affirming his ability on the dance floor, the actor gives the kind of performance that's perfect for the role. James Berardinelli-ReelViews Grease holds up for new generations because it captures the enthusiasm of youth and the vibrancy of California's sunshine-and-cars culture. Michael Booth-Denver Post Grease has got it, from the outstanding animated titles of John Wilson all the way through the rousing finale as John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John ride off into teenage happiness. Variety Staff-Variety Limp, cheaply made. Dave Kehr-Chicago Reader An unembarrassed movie musical, something my generation experienced only in Sunday-afternoon movies on TV. Julie Hinds-San Jose Mercury News A dumb but lively rock musical. Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews I love the film's energy. I love the movie-star charisma of John Travolta in the lead. I love the "am I doing this right?" hesitancy of much of Olivia Newton-John's performance. I love the fact that the film is so unapologetically filthy. Drew McWeeny-HitFix A film that's immortal for its unbridled enthusiasm and top notch production that makes it arguably the best musical ever made... Felix Vasquez Jr.-Cinema Crazed One of the most commercially successful transfers of a Broadway musical to the big screen, Grease is not a great movie but it's a lot of fun to watch and listen due to superlative cast. Emanuel Levy-EmanuelLevy.Com Problematic but ultimately irresistible adaptation of Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey's hit Broadway musical. [Blu-ray] Peter Canavese-Groucho Reviews ...comes to life when Travolta and company are singing and dancing. John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis Randal Kleiser's 1978 musical, set in the Fifties, has some horrible acting but the kind of exuberance that has made it a cult classic. Derek Malcolm-This is London There's a surprising strain of filth, too - this is much closer to Hairspray than High School Musical. The message is: burn rubber, have sex, strut about like a chicken. It's one that's hard to resist. Catherine Shoard-Guardian [UK] Much-loved but somewhat overrated. Wendy Ide-Times [UK] Travolta and Newton-John burn up the screen with all the passion of a potato salad while occasionally singing a song you know all the words to because they play it every week in small-town nightclubs. Ben Reynolds-Film4 Good, clean, high-spirited fun. -TV Guide's Movie Guide ... a bowdlerized version of the original stage play Philip Martin-Arkansas Democrat-Gazette Despite the film's rose-tinted rearview mirrors and Ipana-worthy cheeriness, it's not so much the Wedding Singer of its day as it is the Boogie Nights.

Review For Superbad | |
What makes the film so appealing is the disconnect between what comes from the mouths of these hormone-addled pups and what's going on in their heads, where they're still clinging desperately to the innocence they're leaving behind. Bob Mondello-NPR.org [Cera] has some of the best comic timing of anyone working in film today, a precocious sense of the awkward pauses and misread cues in which social panic resides. Christopher Orr-The New Republic This is the funniest picture since Borat, and more emotionally nuanced than you would expect. Tom Charity-CNN.com 'Superbad' at its best goes right through knockabout to land in deliciously obscene places - notably a staggering succession of doodles in which tumescent cocks take on various extraordinary guises. Ben Walters-Time Out A critical mass of these kinds of flicks argues for a new subgenre: "nerdsploitation." Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post 'Superbad': 'American Graffiti Redux,' only updated with the usual raunch and a major penis fixation Joe Baltake-Passionate Moviegoer It's a simple tale about two horny kids not only on a quest for vodka, beer and sticky fumbling, but they're looking to find themselves in the process. I'll be damned if there's many people left in the cinema afterwards who won't relate to that. Ali Gray-TheShiznit.co.uk Honest goodwill, fond observational detail and Greg Mottola's exuberant direction make the picture nigh on irresistible, but there are some missteps. Ryan Gilbey-Sight and Sound The affable trajectory covers enough guffaws to balance out the flattest visuals this side of The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes Fernando F. Croce-CinePassion Like all Apatow productions, it's far too long but it has a winning combination of cleverly crude humor and genuine sweetness. Jeffrey M. Anderson-Combustible Celluloid The comic-duo of Jonah Hill and Michael Cera reminded me of an immature, foul-mouthed Laurel & Hardy. Jeff Bayer-The Scorecard Review even if Superbad's not much more than a teen comedy, it's the best teen comedy to come out in at least a decade. There's no shame in that. Sean Gandert-Paste Magazine Thanks to Rogen and Apatow we can once again look forward to seeing R-rated comedies. Adam Tobias-Watertown Daily Times a fresh air Stefan Birgir Stefansson-sbs.is Raunchy enough, but it lacks some of the subtle wit and verbal sophistication that has always distinguished Apatow's finest comedies. Rossiter Drake-San Francisco Examiner Audiences who've laughed their asses off at Rogen's other work will be pleased to know that Superbad is not just another teen movie. Tricia Olszewski-Washington City Paper The thing that saves Superbad from being a profane waste of time is its urbane intelligence and above all, bracing honesty. Brandon Fibbs-Colorado Springs Gazette Although the cop characters run out of steam a bit towards the end, the metrosexual relationship between the leads stays fresh all the way through. Brilliant. Simon Thompson-Heart 106.2 ... a humanizing comedy built around the coming-of-age absurdity of actually getting whatever it is you think you want. Kevin A. Ranson-MovieCrypt.com Maybe I would have been better off seeing Superbad before it became an instant cult classic. Gabe Leibowitz-Film and Felt be sure to stick it out through the closing credits. You'll thank me later. Marlow Stern-Manhattan Movie Magazine So bad that it's good, Superbad takes talking dirty on screen to a new level that will serve as shock treatment for some, and leave the rest in stitches. Prairie Miller-NewsBlaze Yet another in a fine line of the coming of age buddy comedies... Felix Vasquez Jr.-Cinema Crazed | |

Review For Battleship | |
Once the special effects take over, Berg has little room to assert his personality (or tell a story, for that matter), and the movie feels like a chore. Ben Sachs-Chicago Reader Battleship is substantially less awful than it could have been. And for me, that may have been the biggest disappointment of all. Christopher Orr-The Atlantic If the movie is anything like the game, I say stay at home and read a good book (or graphic novel). Or listen to an audiobook - In short, do anything else. Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor Big loud stupid dopey shameless cliched overbearing and did I mention stupid? Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com One can be sure that heroic characters get what they want, bond with enemies, and earn respect. Adam Litovitz-Globe and Mail "Battleship" doesn't sink, really. It just sits there booming endlessly as you look on aghast. Tom Long-Detroit News Long, loud and pedestrian, this drama only gets exciting in its closing minutes. John Hanlon-Big Hollywood An assault on reason, logic and complex characterisation, but in an enjoyable way, like a slightly less camp dramatisation of the Village People's finest ship-based sing-song. Catherine Bray-Film4 Just like the board game, assuming the board game cost $200 million and was dumb. Tom Glasson-Concrete Playground We should celebrate the explicit nature, the unabashed and unapologetic chutzpah of a film that dares to be stupid, yet does so with so much intelligence. Jason Gorber-Twitch This cheap-looking dung heap doesn't even bother hiding its contempt for paying audiences, and the lack of pretension almost justifies the cynicism on display. Rob Humanick-Projection Booth What starts out as a seriously tense naval war thriller ends up being Pearl Harbour II: Intergalactic Boogaloo. Ali Gray-TheShiznit.co.uk Battleship is a movie that is enjoyable beyond expectation, but doesn't offer much more than the fast-food-style fun of a summer movie spectacle. Kofi Outlaw-ScreenRant It's not satire, it doesn't play on two levels like Starship Troopers, it's just s---... As a piece of miscalculated, American wankery, it is almost unparalleled. Adam Ross-The Aristocrat Watch the movie for its spectacle and nothing else. Kevin Carr-7M Pictures A silly summer popcorn flick that tries too hard to be witty and tongue-in-cheek while still embracing its deadly serious commitment to being the ultimate blow-em-up action extravaganza. Kristal Cooper-We Got This Covered It really should have been obvious to everyone involved that it was going to turn out like this. Jeff Beck-Examiner.com Believe it or not, no one ever says the game's signature line. So, lets say it here, all together and with enthusiasm, "You sunk my Battleship!" Brian Holcomb-CinemaBlend.com It appears a Hollywood boardroom has scraped the bottom of the barrel of originality to come up with a very long, very loud movie with almost nothing new to say. Justin Craig-FoxNews.com Direction is sharp, but the dull assembly line story damages this hokey action picture that's occasionally so bad it's good. R. L. Shaffer-IGN DVD Battleship is to chicken burritos what The Avengers was to shawarma. William Bibbiani-CraveOnline Maybe it wasn't too smart to turn this Hasbro game into an alien-invasion movie. Kirk Honeycutt-honeycuttshollywood.com For an action flick that starts to sink right out of port, 'Battleship' does take a clever turn. But, boy, do you have to wait a long time for it to smarten up. Linda Cook-Quad City Times (Davenport, IA) Any movie based on Battleship that doesn't at least throw in a PT boat isn't worthy of the name. Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune ... it sounds incredibly dumb -- and it is, but not without a little fun. Jim Lane-Sacramento News & Review I am a sucker for these kinds of big, dumb action movies (I liked "John Carter" and "The Green Lantern" too), particularly if they have a good deal of science fiction in them, and this one does.

Review For Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time | |
The sheer whoosh of the story line keeps you watching anyway, and, as the prince, Jake Gyllenhaal has a hearty good-naturedness that comes as a relief amid all the turbocharged antics. He wears his heroism lightly. Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor Disposable family entertainment. J. R. Jones-Chicago Reader This is a movie that knows exactly how dumb it is. A.O. Scott-At the Movies As usual, the talent in Prince of Persia is generally top notch -- from the cinematographer John Seale to the parkour expert David Belle -- but the ingredients have been masticated so heavily the results are mush. Manohla Dargis-New York Times A spectacularly silly video-game adaptation about a Fresh Prince of Gel Hair who runs around the desert with a magic dagger, a curious version of Alfred Molina and some hoity-toity chick who never breaks a sweat. It's sort of pointless. Amy Biancolli-Houston Chronicle Prince of Persia is destined to disappear into the quicksand of time, too innocuous to be hated, too bland to be remembered, just awaiting some bright optimist in a distant future to press the do-over button. Rick Groen-Globe and Mail "Prince of Persia" certainly has some entertainment value, but it suffers in the story department because it continually tries to fill the film with too much action. Jeff Beck-Examiner.com Gyllenhaal might have seemed like an odd choice to top-line an action flick, given his indie leanings and wet noodle persona, but he's surprisingly tolerable as Dastan; a parkour-obsessed oik who grows into an abs-solutely un-flabulous warrior. Ali Gray-TheShiznit.co.uk Someday someone is going to make a great film from a video game. Until then we have to be satisfied with being decently entertained without being hopelessly insulted. Prince of Persia manages to avoid doing either, so the wait continues. Joshua Starnes-ComingSoon.net This movie stars exactly one paleface American and several paler-faced Brits in almost all the supporting roles. The bronzer budget must have been a major line item. Dave White-Movies.com ...a pointless and aggressively bland big-budget disaster. David Nusair-Reel Film Reviews It wanders through the desert, looking for an exciting hook but never finding one. Ryan Cracknell-Movie Views The movie feels mediocre. It could've been much more, and so it seems the video game curse is still alive and well. Jeffrey Chen-Window to the Movies Pijesak vremena nije film koji će gledateljima dugo ostati u sjećanju, to i ne mora automatski značiti da je lo Dragan Antulov-rec.arts.movies.reviews All about the empty spectacle, sound and fury building to multiple climaxes (without the pleasure). [Blu-ray] Peter Canavese-Groucho Reviews While Prince of Persia is no Pirates of the Caribbean, it's also nothing Bruckheimer or Disney need to feel ashamed of. My kids loved it. James Plath-Movie Metropolis The sands weigh heavily toward the action/special effects component, true to its video game origins and designed to the tastes of the fanboy gamer crowd. Jules Brenner-Cinema Signals Disney tries its hand at adapting a video game and deliver a wasted opportunity of a film. Matthew Pejkovic-Matt's Movie Reviews Cliquez pour lire la critique... Jean-François Vandeuren-Panorama It isn't that the film is bad, it's just that it's so bland at times you wonder if you're watching populist director like Ronald Emmerich trying to tackle a complex author like Dostoevsky. Wesley Lovell-Cinema Sight Is it wrong to have higher expectations for a company that is capable of excellence, especially when it is spending upwards of $150 million to make a movie? Bruce Bennett-Spectrum (St. George, Utah) The CG-enhancements are so omnipresent here that they soon become the very opposite of "special" effects. Jeremy Heilman-MovieMartyr.com And this was supposed to be one of the summer's great popcorn movies? Yeesh. Bob Grimm-Reno News and Review Hay en esta versión cinematográfica del video juego cierto espíritu clásico que invita a recuperar algo de aquella inocencia y que hace recordar, por momentos, a aventuras como las de Indiana Jones. Solo que El Príncipe de Persia difícilmente se convierta Enrique Buchichio-Uruguay Total Memo to studio execs: 'most entertainment' and 'most entertaining' are two completely different things. David Medsker-Bullz-Eye.com The picture seems like it would be perfect Saturday matinee fodder but it's missing the exhilaration of many of its cheesier forebears. Richard Knight-Windy City Times | |

Review For Waste Land | |
I do not mean to make their lives seem easy or pleasant. It is miserable work, even after they grow accustomed to the smell. But it is useful work, and I have been thinking much about the happiness to be found by work that is honest and valuable. Roger Ebert-Chicago Sun-Times It shows us how artists find ideas and concepts for their work from the most unlikely sources, and it demonstrates the power of art to spark curiosity and cultural awareness in even the poorest, most underprivileged people. Rene Rodriguez-Miami Herald While we await the definitive documentary about the glut of garbage, "Waste Land" reduces this global catastrophe to touchingly human scale. Joe Williams-St. Louis Post-Dispatch It's sheer pleasure watching Muniz work -- seeing him seized by mad impulses of delight. Stephen Cole-Globe and Mail "Waste Land" is a testament that things can go from good to bad in an instant. But they can also improve just as quickly. Stephanie Merry-Washington Post It's not a very good title, Waste Land - this isn't a bleak film, at all - but just about everything else in Lucy Walker's documentary works, and illuminates. Steven Rea-Philadelphia Inquirer This conversion of garbage into humanitarian aid is just the beginning. Practical charity gives way to life-changing intimacy. Jeffrey Overstreet-Image The breadth of gratitude these catadores feel towards Muniz and the life-experience they undertake makes for an intelligent, emotional movie. Simon Foster-sbs.com.au Waste Land is a real treasure, the sort of heartwarming and life affirming study of people, lacking in both sentimentality and cynicism, that uplifts the audience and elevates the art form Dan Jardine-Cinemania Waste Land fuses the design concepts behind two of the most high-profile animations of recent years, Rio and the Oscar-winning Wall-E, into an essay about how hard some people are prepared to work. Graham Young-Birmingham Post The result is a film that works on multiple levels, casting light on a worldwide problem while delivering a big jolt of human hope. Robert W. Butler-Kansas City Star Muniz is a gifted, modest and altogether delightful man, and his project is both aesthetically fascinating and philosophically stimulating. Philip French-Guardian [UK] It's inspiring, humbling and beautifully made. Henry Fitzherbert-Daily Express A well-made and often uplifting film that refuses to get angry yet still manages to point out that things aren't as they should be for a great many. Derek Malcolm-This is London More self-conscious, subtle exploration than the dubious bleeding-heart PR stunt implied by its premise. Sophie Ivan-Film4 Well made and impressively structured, this is a heartwarming, genuinely inspirational and ultimately deeply moving film that has deservedly picked up an Oscar nomination for Best Documentary. Matthew Turner-ViewLondon The glimpses of favela life will make you thank your lucky stars you weren't born there. Anthony Quinn-Independent Perhaps not life-changing but certainly life-affirming. Jason Goodyer-Little White Lies This is undoubtedly a bold raid into an unknown territory - both geographic and conceptual - that the prosperous classes prefer not to think about. Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK] Walker finds inspiration and strange beauty in the squalor. Tim Robey-Daily Telegraph As in her memorable Blindsight, in which sightless climbers took on Everest, Walker celebrates the indomitability of the human spirit. Nigel Andrews-Financial Times A remarkable testament to working class lives and the unifying power of art, Waste Land is a rare thing - a film that makes you proud to be human. Elliott Noble-Sky Movies Compelling and vivid, it's another fine piece of work from an up-and-coming talent. Nev Pierce-Empire Magazine A reminder of humanity's ability to transcend its surroundings through art or just plain optimism. Matt Glasby-Total Film Walker's documentary is moving, life-affirming and challenges what you think you might know about these people who pick through the rubbish. Amber Wilkinson-Eye for Film | |
