An awkward title and stilted premise suggest an awkward movie. It is. It’s also very British. Imagine that. Its two strong leads can’t do much but look great. Well they can also sound great, which they do. Still ain’t enough, as we say here in the States. Back to the title, what’s up…

A big budget disaster when it came out at the end of the Sixties, Paint Your Wagon is a modestly entertaining extravaganza today. Faint praise? Indeed, for a musical comedy that is long on star power and short on memorable songs and effective humor. Oh yeah, it’s also long on time. I watc…

What would you do if the earth only had 3 weeks left before being destroyed by an asteroid? In the midst of what you would expect many people to do (throw cautions to the wind, behave badly, etc), Steve Carell shows us another side: being kind, reconnecting with others, etc. Paired up with Keira…

Senior citizen cinema is experiencing somewhat of a boomlet now. Quartet typifies the trend, spinning a gently comedic story about old flames who reunite in a retirement home for musicians and opera singers. It’s a pleasant enough movie, albeit too formulaic to be really interesting.

A merely OK movie can still be enjoyable if it’s got something outstanding about it. Primo buddies do the trick in 2 Guns. The rest of the cast and film? Less than stellar and just OK. Plus the title doesn’t help. 2 Guns is too blunt – so 2 speak. I wanted to bump up my final summa…

Delectable dishes and a beloved cast can’t rescue Stanley Tucci’s passion project. It’s hardly a bad movie, just a bit slow and stilted. Some miscasting and more than a little waiting around are mostly to blame. That said, entrepreneurs of all stripes can benefit from seeing Big Night, a cas…

Animated , cute, apparently a family favorite according to other ratings sites, but I thought it was Meh – mostly because they violated the golden rule of kids movies – including some subtle humor for the parents. |

Bad Teacher = Bad Movie. Cameron Diaz stars as a gold-digging superficial teacher who does whatever it takes to obtain coin for a boob job. The movie is over-acted with an unnecessary white trash style and prick-ish role for Cameron and unfunny attempts at humor. Skip it.

The trailer was funny. It was. Problem is, the trailer delivered the movie’s one big joke, which itself isn’t even funny in the drawnout context of this stinker. The movie itself isn’t funny, isn’t cute, isn’t sexy. Death at a funeral? More like death at the movies. The producers’ M.O. … |
