Mini-Review: pretentious overhaul of better Spanish movie; cameron crowe should stick to writing his own scripts.
Mini-Review: rowan atkinson is deliriously funny as always yet somehow working title and co. didn't deliver enough ingenious spoofs on the spy genre.
Mini-Review: brilliant doc-like reality burst of what it's like for people living inside an insanely restricted society. very moving.
Mini-Review: extraordinary, vivid, realistic depiction of an isolated man's return to humanity via a trip down to an old Mexican village still steeped in the slow, old-world virtues of the past. great filmmaker.
Mini-Review: guilty pleasure. I scarf this stuff up by virtue of the wachowskis' amazing vfx panache, plus the known pleasures of keanu, fishburne & co. An eye-candy feast, and sexy too.
Mini-Review: straightforward by the numbers biopic, but interesting and compelling. helped to make JLo a star.
Mini-Review: Adored this movie, and never understood why it was so underrated. I thought Neil LaBute did a great job adapting a sprawlingly complex novel, which I also adored. Paltrow and Eckhart seemed well-matched to me, although they weren't as hot as their parallel young lovers in the past, played by Jeremy Northam and Jennifer Ehle.
Mini-Review: I called this one as an Oscar-contender early on, because it was an utterly entertaining musical romp through recent American musical history, and Jaime Foxx knocked it out of the park, in a sexy, moving performance. What's not to like? And Foxx deserved the win.
Mini-Review: this was well done, lovely story.
Mini-Review: exciting doc-style portrait of North American Indian life. Dramatic, compelling.
