Much Ado About Nothing

With Shakespearean language tripping off their contemporary tongues, the actors are more than game for Joss Whedon's informal, black-and-white take on this classic comedy.

"...into the night. There’s the occasional tryst, borne of lust or deceit or both. The men are handsome, all..."

Jane Eyre

The foggy moors are palpable, the passions less so, but this new adaptation of Charlotte Brontë's oft-told story is a handsome addition to the canon.

"...individually excellent turns, there is little spark, hunger, or lust that ignites between the two separated-by-circumstance lovers. Buffini’s screenplay..."

I Love You Phillip Morris

Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor star in this tale of Texas con man Steven Russell, which walks an unsteady line between outright farce and redemptive gay love story.

Dec. 17, 2010 Movie Review by Marc Savlov

G-Force

In its gadget-lust and obvious Transformers envy, G-Force is a loud and stupid Jerry Bruckheimer production, and its guinea pig spies are similarly crude.

"...sources such as Die Hard and Scarface. In its gadget-lust and obvious Transformers envy, G-Force is as loud and..."

Waitress

Despite a storyline that involves an unplanned pregnancy, various affairs, spousal abuse, maternal ambivalence, and food-service employment, Waitress is an optimistic comedy about getting past your mistakes and making the best of life.

Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang

Shane Black's directorial debut is a suckerpunch-and-a-half, a trippy tribute to L.A. noir and a genre-busting blitzkrieg attack on Hollywood pretensions that’s just as full of them as the pulp it lampoons.

"...Bang Bang the sort of in-jokey affair film geeks lust after but so rarely receive. It’s a vibrant, kicky,..."
