Matt Dillon’s star turn elevates charmingly amusing nostalgia into a memorable movie. Fortunately, Dillon’s not alone in lending star power to what ultimately feels like a high quality Movie-of-the-Week. Richard Crenna, Jessica Walter and Hector Elizondo help round out the terrific cast. Set…

For its time, The French Connection is a ground-breaking movie, and with a gripping narrative alongside brutal action and strong performances from Hackman and Schneider, it deserves recognition. |

The House on Telegraph Hill is a triumph of art direction. That’s good. It’s also unintentionally campy. That’s bad. The result is a just OK movie, yet one that belongs in the San Francisco Cinema Hall of Fame. The views are marvelous. And the views are the thing with San Francisco real…

A cheated wife gets her revenge in The Other Woman by stealing the movie from “the other woman”. That would be Leslie Mann stealing from Cameron Diaz, the big star and a natural as the other woman. Mann is hilarious as a kookie wife who gets not just the last laugh, but most every other one a…

Two great movies, one bad title, The Place Beyond the Pines could lose 20 ticks and still be twice typical Hollywood fare. Ryan Gosling & Bradley Cooper play two guys on opposite sides of the law, whose paths cross to lethal effect. Both are conflicted and sympathetic. Neither is untarnishe…
