Very Good
A really fun espionage thriller featuring two acting greats: Redford and Pitt. Pitt gets cuffed by the Chinese and the CIA pulls in his old mentor, the just-about-to-retire Robert Redford to help sort things out. As you’d expect, this turns into a one last hurrah for Redford – full of heroic …

OK
A movie that tries to make a political statement via fast paced war action infused with spy vs spy espionage thriller. While fun to watch and very entertaining to the war/action/thriller crowd, the story itself comes across a bit contrived for the setting. We all know that something is amiss in…

OK
This movie is sort of like the 8-cylinder version of the A-Team’s 4-banger. As you would expect from any Stallone movie, plenty of violence-laden action abounds, sometimes in a disconnected sort of way – but to be sure, watching bad guys get their heads blown off is an all American macho form…

Great
Confessions of a Dangerous Mind got gonged in ‘02. Turns out it’s a great movie, especially for those of us for whom The Dating Game, The Newlywed Game and The Gong Show are pop-cultural touchstones.
The movie tells the twisted tale of their creator Chuck Barris’s life, as he’d like it kn…
