Before Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe were Oscar winners, they stared together in this sci-fi action film from the early days of the internet. Everything about this film is heavy on the cheesiness, and advances in internet technology make some of the tech-talk laughable now. Still, for a fun… |

Silence of the Lambs set the standard for the psychological crime thriller. As Hanibal, Anthony Hopkins does ‘evil’ like nobody else, and if that wasn’t enough, Jodie Foster and her law enforcement brood need to find and deal with Hanibal’s sick protege. This movie deserved all of the Oscars that… |

Chasing a copycat killer who has decided to mimic the gruesomeness of Poe stories isn’t a bad plot. Especially if you are old school, it was engaging to get a taste of the famous Poe stories; most notably “The Pit and the Pendulumâ€, “Tell Tale Heartâ€, “The Masque of the Red Deathâ€,… |

Nicole Kidman’s frisky freak – while very transfixing – doesn’t rescue The Paperboy from decrepitude. It doesn’t help that she’s got a phony Southern accent, one of several in this miserable misfire of a movie. Charlotte Bless – one of the hottest harlots in cinematic history – has eyes for…

Hollywood must be licking its chops to remake this Swedish hit. Chockablock with career-making roles, combining fashionable anti-capitalist politics with feminist blood-lust, and striking a crisply efficient thriller tone, it suffers only from a poor title, not that that matters given how huge t…

American remakes of foreign movies work best when they’re moved to America. Otherwise they can seem phony, which is the case with David Fincher’s remake of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Fake Swedish accents are one hurdle. A kitschy feel is another. A merely OK Lizbeth Salander doesn’t h…
