A so-so Robin Williams flick about a 10 year old boy who ages in hyper-time. This should have been a cake-walk for Robin Williams — I mean think of all the silly shticks this could have generated. Instead, Robin comes across as not trying that hard and expectations are let down as the Robin Wil…

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…

This playful romp of a movie follows the trials and tribulations of Pete Tong, a maniacal DJ who loses his hearing. Watch what happens when the boozing, coke-snorting, womanizing Pete discovers that he can no longer hear well enough to mix tunes. With his world crashing down around him, can Pete …

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 17 Points 2008

A subtle dry humor is infused in to this deliberately paced indie drama about a man who wrestles with his changing direction in life. No matter how much Henry wants to be left alone a series of funny and quirky interactions with neighbors keeps him plugged in to humanity. The process he goes th…

OK 78 Points 2009

An amiable dramedy that’s not very dramatic or funny, this star-studded movie plays like a full employment program for young Hollywood. Singles (especially of the female persuasion) and just-marrieds might find it worth seeking out. For the rest of us, there are worse ways to pass the time on 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…

Good 3 Points 2007

A tragic film with heart ache and head ache. A disturbing and unusual plot and adverage acting. Some scenes would be shocking enough to make you choke on your popcorn.
