One of the all-time great submarine movies, so terrific it even had this Yiddish Yank rooting for the Nazi Navy. |

Unlike Bonnie and Clyde, the Newton Boys were successful bank robbers, so it’s an injustice that they’re not as famous – nor their biopic as celebrated – as that of those other early 20th century Texas outlaws. Especially because The Newton Boys is a slick, rollicking and interesting movie, on… |

Rudy is the first perfect boyhood football movie, if not necessarily the first overall perfect football movie. It beatifies a tough Irish-Catholic boy from Chicago who lionizes football, then plays it and is defined by it. Daniel ‘Rudy’ Ruettiger grew up craning his neck one state over, towa…

Three Kings succeeds magnificently as cockeyed caper movie, less so as metaphor for America’s abortive involvement in Iraq following the Persian Gulf War. The former unspools propulsively as George Clooney’s disgruntled commando leads a ragtag crew on a crazy hunt for Saddam Hussein’s gold. T…

Invincible is a great football movie, tough yet sensitive in a manly sort of way. Relationships between fathers and sons and buddies and girls-who-wear-jerseys are all well mined for emotional wallop. The movie has added resonance for those of us familiar with Philly and the 70s, especially… |

A quality caper movie based on a still murky true story from the early 1970s, The Bank Job efficiently entertains with a combination of larcenous derring-do and salacious scandal. Engagingly performed by Jason Statham, Saffron Burrows and a crew of quality character actors, the movie judicious… |

A treat for football fans and civil rights era history buffs, this charming and affecting but overly reverential biopic will likely bore everyone else. That said, excellent performances by Rob Brown, Dennis Quaid and others, top notch production values, and first-rate football action do this i…
