Pride and Glory

October 24th, 2008

Pride and Glory is a generational cop film that degenerates quickly. It does feature fine performances from the top down – the top being the family patriarch Francis Tierney (John Voight) a career cop whose two sons Francis Jr (Noah Emmerich) and Ray (Edward Norton) also serve as two of New York’s finest. His daughter Megan (Lake Bell) is not on the force but her husband Jimmy (Colin Farrell) ...

Rachel Getting Married

October 24th, 2008

Rachel Getting Married isn’t so much about Rachel (Rosemarie DeWitt) although her upcoming nuptials do focus on her psychologically fragile sister Kym (an Oscar bound Anne Hathaway although impossible to ugly up no matter how hard they try). She’s checked herself out of rehab for the weekend to attend Rachel’s fall wedding at the family’s upper middle class Connecticut home now run by her ste ...

Closing the Ring

October 24th, 2008

Closing the Ring is the name of a brilliant book by Winston Churchill chronicling a critical time in the Second World War. This film of the same name is also about the Second World War but has nothing to do with Winston Churchill and is far from brilliant. Misha Barton who flamed out on the TV series The OC has resurfaced sharing a character with Shirley MacLaine - who is very good but no m ...

Passchendaele

October 17th, 2008

It was also one of the places that Canadian military bravery helped morph this vast country of only 6 million people at the time from colony status into a nation. Canadian actor Paul Gross known for wearing his maple leaf on his sleeve has been working long and hard to get this project on screen ...

Body of Lies

October 11th, 2008

Body of Lies unites two powerhouse performers Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe (emphasis on “house” here as Crowe put on about 50 pounds for the role). Crowe is Ed Hoffman a Langley CIA honcho who firmly believes in the U.S. Middle East mission and can vacillate all day on the need to win. DiCaprio plays Roger Ferris, Hoffman’s legs in the hot zones who spends most of the film healing new ...

Sex Drive

October 11th, 2008

Sex Drive is a teen road picture with a too cute name that could not be funnier even though the premise goes back over 20 years to The Sure Thing. Josh Zuckerman plays Ian with all the raging hormones of a high school grad that go unsatisfied because of his shyness. This may be because his real passion for his best friend Felicia (Langley’s Amanda Crew) is a lost cause although it’s obvious t ...
