The latest IMAX extravaganza, Roving Mars tells a NASA success story (whew!), writ large on giant screens, with sound effects you can—at least during the launch sequence—literally feel. W... 
A corny, eighties throwback, with thematic mushiness, regressive sexual politics, and cheesy montages to match. 
A growing cause celebre in the U.S. is the plight of the innocent inmate. With over 150 U.S. exonerees thus far counted, Barry Sheck and The Innocence Project toil on behalf of exhausted clients who... 
The empty-headed Imagine Me & You is a lesbianism-at-first-sight romantic comedy. The entire picture hinges on that first sight, which writer-director Ol Parker frankly botches. Piper Perabo and... 
Thompson can't or won't diverge much from standard fairy-tale plotting, but enlivens the familiar situation comedy with some pleasingly tart lines. 
Reveries and fever dreams of early America--Malick casts not for dry history but a psychic projection of spirit from beyond the centuries. 
Underworld: Evolution will probably please the presumable fans of the first film, but newcomers may nap through the convoluted exposition. The latest in Goth fashions, Len Wiseman's amped-up sequel a... 
The essentially sanctified Melquiades...is the least developed character...Jones and Arriaga instead focus on the redemption of Estrada's white neighbors. 
Too much of this self-congratulatory one-man-show in the guise of a documentary remains real...muddy. 
Albert Brooks has always spun gold from self-absorption and gulfs of misunderstanding. 
Though the acts don't have the heft required for concert-film greatness, they do comprise a sort of screen capture of the decade's musical movement. 
Without belaboring his narrative shaping, Arlyck asks big questions about life paths and philosophical drift. 
Too seldom clever, too often tiresomely busy, and wasteful of its voice cast, it's Hoodwinked that is the crime. 
When coach Don Haskins sent out five African-American starters to face off against an all-white Wildcat team, barriers were broken, but Glory Road just hits the wall. 
Bypasses the mythic tone of Richard Wagner's opera...without forsaking storybook romance. The inoffensive results get the job done, but sadly fail to excite. 
Writer-director Richard Shepard speeds through the hairpin turns of a pure-comedy 'what if?' premise....as quirkily suspenseful as it is ticklish. 
Grabs for the gut by stoking primal understandings about our loving but tragically distant relationship with the wild. 
Amounts to little more than an austere and extremely prolonged episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents. 
A potent legend of modern international relations. 
Has the plaintive, lyrical feel of a classic Southern short-story. 
Rock crumbles, wood splinters, and cartoon sound effects yelp in Chow's full-bore looney tune. 
A modern romantic comedy movie transplanted to 18th Century Venice...Hallstrom's fleet-footed romp is impossible to take seriously, but that's largely the point. 
For a movie purportedly about the truth behind a movie, the mushy Rumor Has It... feels astoundingly false. 
The diminished return of the English striptease comedies...neither swanky nor funny enough to entertain, and Sherman's shallow script never earns its melodramatic turns. 
The man's increasingly crazifying attempts to make serious films are still nothing more than good movies. Perhaps only Spielberg could fail so spectacularly well. 
Starts out as a nifty satire, then turns ghastly for most of its running time. 
Cheaper By the Dozen--inspired by the book by Frank Bunker Gilbreth Jr. and Ernestine Gilbreth Carey and a 1950 screenplay by Lamar Trotti--has all the comic sensibility of a food fight. In reality,... 
It's difficult enough for filmmakers to make great films from great novels, but cinema's short history has seen plenty of fine adaptations. Hollywood's failure to make more than a handful of satisfac... 
Essentially, The Batman/Superman Movie is an action comedy, a superhero "buddy picture"...this eventful superhero adventure delivers twice the fun. 
A true-sports movie starring 67-year-old Anthony Hopkins as the athlete? That's exactly what you get from The World's Fastest Indian, Roger Donaldson's ode to Kiwi motorcyclist Burt Munro. In 1967, M... 
Narrative elegance and rapturous imagery highlight The Warrior...[as well as] the dark charisma of leading man Khan...and lovely vistas. 
A pleasant surprise, a sprightly comedy with a dramatic aftertaste. 
What starts out seeming courageous rapidly reveals itself as a narcissistic, opportunistic stunt. 
With brisk energy, Baumbach finds equal parts humor and sadness in the foibles of his family. 
Ghosts threaten to make matters miserable for the living, sort of like The Skeleton Key. As Peter Sarsgaard says...too convincingly, 'All I know is the checks clear.' 
A sketchy horror plot slips from episode to episode with no particular momentum. As far as I can tell, Kruger made a list of scares, and Nakata ticked them off. 
Not for the resolutely politically correct or the shtick-averse. For everyone else, it's the Christmas gift that keeps on giving. 
Family-friendly films for girls...[usually] drip with phony commercialism and pettiness of character; by comparison, Sisterhood is not only a class-act, but a godsend. 
Thoughtful and energetic....Anderson has in Ryan's story a bittersweet exemplar for the unsung toil and love of prefeminist desperate housewives... 
Who would've thought...that the certifiably awful/unaccountably popular Hilary Duff was daring enough to make a movie about having a lesbian relationship with her mother?
