Middle Men
Very Good 17 Points 2010

Wayne Beering and Buck Dolby stumble on something big. Internet billing for the porn industry. Problem is that Wayne and Buck were two bumbling dudes, it quickly became evident to everyone around that they were in way over their heads. Enter Luke Wilson. With his saavy knack for business and a…

Get Low
Good 83 Points 2010

An underwhelming story overwhelmingly performed makes for a good, albeit sleepy movie. Robert Duvall does deliriously well – of course – in a movie he produced and leads.

Get Low’s gently risqué and glib content alloys into ribald American realism. Hell, it could be classified as Americana…

Flipped
OK 17 Points 2010

A tale of childhood romance, growing up in the late 50s, and family drama. Rob Reiner assembled a great cast, and weaves a tale of giddy kid-crushes and the back and forth of young love. The movie ends up feeling like a cross between the TV show “Wonder Years” and “The Waltons”. The latt…

Good 17 Points 2010

In this case, the movie’s title represents fairly well the content: A kind of a funny movie — but in this case it isn’t a negative. Rather, a great blend of humor with character drama: Take a teenager who over-dramatizes his depression, ends up in a mental hospital for a week, and helps hi…

Four Lions
Very Good 5 Points 2010

As a rule, satirical pieces always contain elements of truth. This premise is beautifully portrayed in Four Lions, a humorous film about the unpleasant topic of young men choosing to sacrifice themselves in an attack on “western decadence”.

While the premise of suicide bombing is terrifying …

I'm Still Here
Pretty Awful 5 Points 2010

Either Joaquin Phoenix is a terrible rapper, or he just created an ill-conceived satiric piece that completely trashes his career and image in the film “I’m Still Here.”

Ostensibly a documentary filmed by his brother-in-law Casey Affleck about Phoenix’s career transformation from actor to rap …

Good 22 Points 2011

Laid off, kicked out by your wife, driven back to the drink that caused your mess…. Will Ferrell is endearing as a relapsing alcoholic who befriends a local kid (Christopher John Wallace) and a neighbor woman (Rebecca Hall) as he sorts through the disaster he created for himself. Sitting on hi…
