Harry Potter (Adam)

Harry Potter (Adam)

HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF PHOENIX Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is the fifth chapter in the popular franchise based on J.K. Rowling's beloved books, and it arrives in theaters a mere eleven days before the final book of the series (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows) hits she... [More]

Hairspray

Hairspray

Hairspray is a wonderfully entertaining musical based on a play inspired by a 1988 John Waters film (at one time, Waters was known for edgier fare like the repulsive but compulsively watchable Pink Flamingos), and it works much more successfully than The Producers which also happened to be a musical...

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

I'm writing this review for few people on Earth who, like me, have not read any of the Harry Potter books. There must be a few of us left. So, if you have been held at Guantanamo Bay or just woke up from a coma, this is the review for you. I admit that I do not know the intricacies of the Potter... [More]

Death At A Funeral

Death At A Funeral

At first, "Death" appears to be a sedate British comedy. Children and friends have gathered at a gorgeous manor house for the wake. In charge of the affair is Daniel (Matthew Macfadyen), son of the deceased. He wants to be an author like his famous brother Robert (Rupert Graves), but still lives wit... [More]

Transformers

Transformers

Transformers is already being hailed by many as the most entertaining movie of the summer. Upon walking out of the theater, I found myself picking apart what I had just witnessed. Several folks in the lobby jumped down my throat telling me that I was being too critical. "It's a fun summer movie" the... [More]

Evening

Evening

There is no story here unless you think you should watch an old lady on her deathbed think about a guy she had a one-night stand with fifty years ago. We go back and forth. The present is set in a big, old Rhode Island house. The matriarch, Ann Lord (Vanessa Redgrave), is in her deathbed being a... [More]

Ratatouille

Ratatouille

Ratatouille is a wonderful new computer animated comedy from the amazing team at Pixar. Are these guys even capable of making a mediocre movie? I think not. Ratatouille tells the story of a rat named Remy. Remy has big dreams, but these particular dreams may be well - beyond his reach. You see,... [More]

Sicko

Sicko

Sicko is the latest documentary from Michael Moore. This time, the outspoken film maker takes aim at the American health care system. Throughout the film, Moore interviews a select group of Americans and documents their nightmarish encounters with this country's sometimes horrendously unaccommod... [More]

Live Free or Die Hard

Live Free or Die Hard

NYPD Detective John McClane is back in action after a twelve year hiatus in Live Free or Die Hard - the fourth film in the action packed franchise. How does it measure up to the past installments? Well, it certainly could have been better, but then it certainly could have been worse. In Live Fre... [More]

Evan Almighty

Evan Almighty

If God chose me for a mission, the first person I would tell is my husband. I'd say: "God spoke to me and gave me a task. He told me you are to be my Aaron." (Moses' brother who had to speak for the "slow of speech" prophet.) Or, "God spoke to me and gave me a task. He told me you are supposed to bu... [More]

A Mighty Heart

A Mighty Heart

We are fascinated with the families of victims for one reason: We actually see true suffering. I will never forget Chandra Levy's grieving father Robert breaking down every time he spoke to the media. Clinging to his wife Susan, we watched him weep and dramatically lose weight over the months of his... [More]

1408

1408

1408 is a mind f**k. A glorious, cerebral, creepy as hell mind f**k, and it gets extra props for delivering spine tingling chills with very little blood. 1408 is in fact PG-13, but it isn't one of those stupid, generic, disposable fright pictures out to make a quick buck. On the contrary, this film... [More]

Bone's Last CineVegas Report

Bone's Last CineVegas Report

One More Saturday Night Charlize Theron received the annual Half-Life award, probably because of all that radiation she was subjected to in The Astronauts Wife. Which is just a really lame joke, The Half Life award goes to someone who has amassed an impressive body of work, but still has many pro... [More]

Hostel 2

Hostel 2

Hostel Part 2 is not only a sequel to the 2006 surprise hit, but it's also the latest entry in the ‘torture porn' genre. Torture porn obviously has a slight negative connotation about it, but for me, the label is meaningless. If a movie is good, it's good. It doesn't really matter what kind of a mov... [More]

Once

Once

"Once" is an absolute gem - filled with pure magic from top to bottom. Even though it's a small, independent film it's huge on charm. So charming in fact, that even if by word-of-mouth it should have no problem finding a successful niche among the crowded summer movie season. Set in Ireland, "O... [More]
