Almost Famous
Great 66 Points 2000

Backstage Pass To Rock & Roll Valhalla. Rock and roll voyeur trip. Great performances, including then new star Kate Hudson. Funny, witty script.

Cameron Crowe is a monster talent, and apparently has been one since he started writing for Rolling Stone as a mere pup of 15. This lovingly persona…

Best of Enemies
Perfect 66 Points 2015
FrackNation
Great 66 Points 2013

Fracking is a virtual four-letter word for the Environmental Left, and a byword for American ingenuity, economic growth and geopolitical strength for its fans. Irish journalist Phelim McAleer falls into the latter camp for reasons that he documents convincingly and engagingly in FrackNation.

Frost/Nixon
Great 66 Points 2008

Heartburn
Very Good 66 Points 1986

Perfect credits lead to a fitfully entertaining movie about some monumentally smug people in Heartburn. Meryl Streep and Jack Nicholson – in his prime – lead the credits. The great Mike Nichols directs, fifteen years after directing Nicholson in the scandalous Carnal Knowledge

Great 66 Points 1940

How could it not be? It stars the most versatile movie star ever in Cary Grant…

Julie & Julia
Very Good 66 Points 2009

This schizophrenic biography of a legendary woman and the blogger who idolized her would have been better if it was simply Julia sans Julie. Still it works as concocted due to the tremendous vitality, grace and good humor of Julia Child and the nonpar…

Great 83 Points 2012

Safety not guaranteed, but viewing pleasure is assured from this endearing romcom. It features a smart story about a Miss Lonelyheart falling in love with an apparently crazy time-traveler she’s researching for an exposé. His crazy but real (crazy-real?) scenario meshes well with today’s über-ir…
