The Hitman’s Bodyguard doesn’t disappoint. Amoral shoot-em-ups are rarely so accomplished, or funny. Samuel L. Jackson – in his monthly movie – opens the second reel, finally putting the personality into overdrive. Yet even with that, the movie is 15 minutes, or roughly one car chase, too long….

The wages of sin are very good for Tom Cruise for a very long time in American Made, a fanciful recounting of one smuggler’s blues during the 1980s cocaine explosion. It’s a very satisfying movie, with a modicum of truth, a surfeit of crazed sexiness, and a satisfactory ending when the wages of…

Great trailer lies from the start.

John C. Reilly’s Walk Hard plays like a feature-film SNL skit, all the more because many in the large cast are SNL players, including Kristen Wiig, Tim Meadows & Chris Parnell. Weekend Update never arrives, but you half expect it to. Often funny yet strivingly ambitious, Walk Hard’s reach wel…

I ignored Chapters 1 & 2 of John Wick. No longer, given the positive word of mouth about Chapter 3. That WoM is well earned by the movie itself, which is funny as hell without being a comedy. Plus, Keanu Reeves’ limited ability to recite dialog meets its moment as John Wick, with Parabellum …

The French sure know how to concoct clever romantic comedies. If only the execution were up to snuff, Heartbreaker would be a classic of the genre. Oh bien, it screams for an American remake anyway. Hollywood simply has to cast their version better for a monster hit. Heartbreaker mask…

Romantic Comedy, French Flair

Jack Reacher feels less like a movie and more like a mongo TV pilot, one sporting superstar charisma, huge production values and enough sociopathic violence to sicken half the country. Why the sick level of violence? For Reacher to brutally exterminate the bad guys, the bad guys have to prov…

She was 5 months pregnant. Just saying.

All the LOL moments are in the trailers. Still, Ashton and Cameron are likable, hot, self-deprecatingly funny, and have more than a smidgen of chemistry together, so the movie is a bit better than OK. |

If there was an Academy Award category called Good Intentions, “To Be Or Not To Be” would have won hands down when it came out. After all, how can you fault anybody for wanting the remake of the great film comedies of all time. But it doesn’t work. Mel Brooks, who stars and produces, went way… |

Mel Brooks parodied Alfred Hitchcock movies in High Anxiety with middling results, though perhaps the movie simply hasn’t aged well over time. It remains modestly funny all these decades later, with the added value of now being a time capsule from the late 70s, back when Hyatt Regency atriums w…
