Can you really make an entire feature length film out of a single day’s events following JFK’s assasination? Well, yes – by following four different stories: Zapruder the famous film-maker, The Oswalds, the law, and the emergency room doctors and nurses. The result is a bit muddled, but keeps … |

Killing Kennedy could easily be titled Kennedy’s Killer given its salutary focus on Lee Harvey Oswald. JFK we knew. It’s unfortunate then that Killing Kennedy spends time on the Leader of the Free World’s womanizing. Given 90 minutes of real runtime, bikinis take away from also understanding …

Admit it. You always wanted to know all the gory details about how John Wilkes Booth got into the Presidential box at Ford’s Theater, how he got away, got captured and got killed. Who hasn’t? Killing Lincoln dramatizes that and more, providing an unflinching view of history that’s a valuab…

I expected more from this George Clooney spy thriller set in a gorgeous Italian town. George plays an assassin “Jack” who is sequestered to a sleepy town for safe keeping only to be dragged in to another job. Of course, just like he isn’t supposed to, he befriends the locals – most notably the v… |

A funny indie comedy about a 17 y/o student who believes he is the re-incarnation of Leon Trotsky, the communist revolutionary who created the Red Army. Leon Bronstein (Jay Baruchel) is the son of an upper middle-class family, who happens to share the same name as Trotsky. He’s also convinced…

Action porn, a near constant tickle, and charismatic movie star performances make Wanted a new benchmark in bravura movie making. Casually amoral, this nihilistic flik would make Nietzsche blush. In short, Wanted is one hell of a guilty pleasure.
