While worth seeing, some will find Bridesmaids, as I did, a little too raunchy. Having a woman defecate in a sink was too much for me.
This documentary deals with the fall of former New York governor Eliot Spitzer, who while in office, used an escort service that charged upwards of $2...
This is an extraordinary movie allegedly based on the Durst real estate family of New York. It's a bizarre story, and the acting of the principals, Kirsten Dunst, Ryan Gosling and Frank Langella, is terrific and, on occasion, terrifying.
I'm not going to tell you about the plot -- it is ridiculous. For me to even discuss it would take away whatever pleasures might be there. But if I were you, I would do what most audiences have done: not go.
I hope I will not be thought of as a coarse Philistine for not praising this film. I confess that I am not a devotee of the ballet; indeed, I have att...
Sure-to-be Oscar contender The King's Speech is a movie without any surprises, but excellent.
The 59th Street Bridge has no extraordinary sight lines. It doesn't touch the sky, like the George Washington or Verrazano bridges. It's a workhorse bridge. Just like me!
They're not comedians... they're actors. (And very good ones at that.) So why are Anne Hathaway and James Franco hosting the 2011 Academy Awards?
This is a stupendous movie, one I recommend with gusto.
Kevin Kline is the "extra man" in this film, a distinguished gentleman who squires around lonely, older women. Paul Dano is the young playwright Kline...
Ed Norton stars in this film about twin brothers--one a professor at Brown University, the other a redneck--who come back together in Oklahoma when th...
This Paul Simon musical was panned when it opened on Broadway, in 1998, but I love it and still listen to the soundtrack in my car nearly every day. T...
When I went to see this film, there were only about ten people in the theater. I liked it anyway. If you're a fan of film noir, I urge you to go. Th...
This depressing film would have been more accurately described if it had been named "Despair." Everyone in it suffers enormously. Despite the sadness, I found it to be very interesting.
A.O. Scott, in his review of this film, leaves the reader with the impression that Middle Men is a soft-porno flick, akin to Boogie Nights. It's not.
This Belgian film (in French, with English subtitles) is quite good, though not nearly as good as my favorite spy thriller of all time. To see if you agree with that choice, watch my review below.
This film received mixed reviews from other critics. I enjoyed it immensely, and think it is well worth seeing.
Hype, hype, hype, is what we have here. Why did the critics give this junk their highest ratings? It does not hold a candle to the Matrix series.
The film seeks to establish an understanding of the need to provide equity for both homosexual and heterosexual couples. As Martha Stewart would say, "It's a good thing."
The film is named for Juan Restrepo, an American soldier killed in an Afghanistan valley. Members of his company, expanding the footprint of American ...
If any movie can put you to sleep, this is the one. It is billed as a comedy but, believe me, it is dead weight from beginning to end. I saw the fil...
I rarely like slow-moving films that take their time setting the scene for more adventurous or violent moments to come. But I was comfortable watching this movie, which is beautiful and well worth watching.
