IMAGINE THAT

June 14th, 2009
IMAGINE THAT should do much to take the albatross of bad movies past from around the neck of Eddie Murphy. He’s teamed up with just about the most adorable child actor to come along since Dakota Fanning and his sometimes infantile shtick has found a compatible match. She is Yara Shahidi playing Olivia the daughter of Evan (Murphy) a commodities broker constantly upstaged in front of clients b ...

AWAY WE GO

June 14th, 2009
AWAY WE GO is the story of a pregnant couple’s search for the right environment to raise their impending child. Burt Farlander is an insurance underwriter played by John Krasinski who translates a lot of the level headed charm he’s so famous for in The Office but it’s spiced with a touch of looniness that he inherits from his flaky ex-hippy parents  Gloria (Catherine O’Hara) and Jerry (Jeff D ...

DEPARTURES

June 14th, 2009
DEPARTURES is an internationally acclaimed Japanese film that won many honours before taking the best foreign language Oscar at this years Academy Awards. This film is so gorgeous that politics aside and strictly on merit it should have been considered for best picture against what was offered in English as it could have given Slumdog Millionaire a run for its money. Tugging at the heart of t ...

With plans for a bachelor party to end all bachelor parties Doug Billings (Justin Bartha) a groom to be heads to Vegas for one last naughty weekend prior to a lifetime of marital bliss with two of his best buddies - the henpecked dentist Stu Price (Ed Helms) and playboy Phil Wenneck (Bradley Coope ...

Land of the Lost

June 8th, 2009
Land of the Lost is a big screen adaptation of a long ago TV series that was rejuvenated in the early ’90’s. Where it may have a nostalgic aspect for original viewers, as a stand alone movie it’s just plain silly. Will Farrell gambled and lost on this movie playing Dr. Rick Marshall who with much debatable hubris expounds his theory to an incredulous Matt Lauer (in a bad career move) that man ...

Easy Virtue

June 8th, 2009
Easy Virtue is an adaptation of a Noel Coward play that has not been put to celluloid since 1928 under the direction of Alfred Hitchcock. While at that time it would have been a contemporary film, now it’s a period piece. Of note is Colin Firth who no longer seems to be tapped for roles as a lady killer but is cast here in a more mature role although with patience we see that he still has som ...

UP

June 8th, 2009
UP is the latest animated treat from Pixar and their first in 3D (where available). The hysterical trailers have been running for months but no hints of motivation are given for Carl Fredricksen (a fine welcome back for Ed Asner) a grumpy old man using a monstrous battery of helium filled balloons to float his character home in the city on a jungle safari accompanied by an ersatz boy scout na ...
