Moviestar movies get no better than this one. Super hot, totally cold and dead-bang funny, this huge hit could have been overwhelmed by the fusion of its soon-to-be-coupled stars. Instead Brangelina’s debut perfectly serves the power-couple satire, even more so in hindsight given how their real…

Occasionally LOL, though generally too clever for its own good, this tongue-in-cheek LA murder mystery is more head-scratcher than belly-laugher. That said, those in the know about the movie industry will certainly enjoy the self-referential humor.

Cute, yes. Clever, yes. LOL, no.

Unlike its vintage stars, this genial comedy hasn’t aged particularly well. Still its an enjoyable lark of a movie, especially with a quartet of hugely charismatic actors commanding the screen. The movie plays off two events that were fresh in the public mind when it came out in 2000: "Apollo…

An all-time great high school movie, Dazed and Confused captures a moment when kids got away with hedonism adults didn’t yet comprehend. Rarely LOL, though pleasantly funny – when not indulging in mild sadism – its blissful callowness is altogether winning, especially as brought to life by a g…

Not Money, “Money” being Swingers’ buzzword for winning. Granted the movie stood out in the mid-90s for its over-the-top retro sensibilities and for introducing Vince Vaughn’s charming jerk act to a wide audience. Those attributes and an achingly lovely Heather Graham are all that recommend i… |

Formulaic story, competent execution and charming performances make 17 Again a successful teen dramedy, and a decent way to pass the time for coach passengers of all ages. Think of it as Heaven Can Wait meets High School Musical…

Great acting from Andy Garcia and Julianna Margulies rescues a disappointing script, making City Island a pleasant diversion, but little more. The story about secrets maintained and revealed in a loving family grows episodic, often more head-scratching than involving.

Everybody’s damaged in Please Give. Most are awful, some sweet, all adrift. Misanthropic, it generates frequent laughs at the expense of these modern Manhattanites. Think a more seriously inclined Seinfeld – from the feminine side. Not that …

Wannabe superheroes are an obvious target for movie comedy. Wonder then that so few moviemakers try it, even if two did in 2010. Super may not be the funniest of that pair, but it’s plenty comical and surprisingly deep at the same time. You can see why writer-director James Gunn got "Guardians …

How did this kitsch-fest become Woody Allen’s highest grossing movie? Paris is beautiful, oui. The lives of great artists are fascinating, oui, oui. But a cheap time-travel gimmick in service to a shopworn Woody Allen plot squanders such gifts. The answer to its popularity must be the voyeu…
