SHOWTIMES

BY FILM

NEW REVIEWS

An American Carol
Michael Moore and left-leaning Hollywood are the subjects of this spoof that's missing only one thing: comedy. - Marjorie Baumgarten


August Evening
This quiet, contemplative gem of a film paints a painfully accurate portrait of familial love, loss, and healing-by-degrees among the migrant communities bordering San Antonio. - Marc Savlov


Beverly Hills Chihuahua
It may be a family-friendly trifle, but it's nevertheless a silly, if guilty, pleasure to watch. - Margaret Moser


Billy: The Early Years of Billy Graham
A Depression-era biopic about the formative years of the influential Christian evangelist Billy Graham. - Marjorie Baumgarten

Body of Lies
Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe star in Ridley Scott's new film about the different types of CIA operatives fighting the global war on terrorism. - Marjorie Baumgarten


Chris & Don: A Love Story
The 30-year-long love affair between writer Christopher Isherwood and artist Don Bachardy is lovingly documented. - Kimberley Jones


City of Ember
Despite some inventive production design and a comically villainous turn from Bill Murray, this film based on a young-adult novel never really picks up much steam. - Marc Savlov


Drona
This new Bollywood film is a fantasy tale. - Marjorie Baumgarten

The Duchess
Keira Knightley stars as the titular Duchess, a legendary wit and arbiter of taste, but the film is a curiously inert: a whole lot of pomp and incircumstance. - Kimberley Jones


The Express
The story of Ernie Davis, the first African-American Heisman Trophy winner, is full of heart-pumping stadium heroics and quiet acts of dignity. - Josh Rosenblatt


How to Lose Friends & Alienate People
This comedy starring Simon Pegg is based on Toby Young's memoir about working at Vanity Fair. - Josh Rosenblatt


Quarantine
An L.A. apartment building is quarantined in this new horror film, and a news crew's videotape may be the only proof of the strange goings-on. - Marjorie Baumgraten
