Mad Money

January 25th, 2008
Mad Money borrows heavily from Fun With Dick and Jane as Diane Keaton and Ted Danson are Bridget and Don Cardigan, a heartland middle class couple who suddenly find themselves with no visible means of support and no marketable skills. A desperate Bridget takes a janitorial job at the Federal Revenue Bank where she hatches a scheme to steal worn out currency destined for shredding. She enlists ...

Cloverfield

January 25th, 2008
Cloverfield is about as far away from a field of clover as you can get. As we find out during the ominous opening credits it’s the name assigned to a video found in the area formerly know as Central Park. What follows is the videography playback of a particularly bad night in the Big Apple as for a tense 88 minutes we get a cross between The Blair Witch Project and Godzilla. It starts with ...

Steep

January 25th, 2008
Steep has nothing to do with tea fanciers who prefer a strong brew. The stars of this documentary are about as diametrically opposed as you can get from teetotallers although they don’t get high on anything but adrenalin. They’re all extreme skiers, a sport that started in the 1980’s French Alps. As a matter of fact for a while it looks like Steep is nothing more that a rehash of 1988’s cult ...

How She Move

January 25th, 2008
How She Move stars Rutina Wesley as Raya Green, a bright young woman with a plan for success whose dreams are shattered when private school funds dry up and she has to return to the delinquent breeding grounds of her old Toronto neighbourhood. Step dancing which was featured in last years Stomp the Yard has come a long way from its African roots to the point where it’s a big influence even ...

Starting Out in the Evening

January 25th, 2008
Starting Out in the Evening stars Frank Langella who has made no attempt to age gracefully since drawing first blood as a the lead in 1979’s Dracula. However the jowly character of his new millennium face is perfect for his portrayal of Leonard Schiller a retired New York English professor with a bad heart and author of 4 published novels that never got read much. The completion of his curren ...

U2 3D

January 25th, 2008
U2 3D is not just a film, it’s an experience as U2, one of the world’s most enduing rock bands recorded the Latin American portion of their Vertigo tour in the IMAX format. Because it’s in 3D the intimacy is unprecedented as you’re right there on stage with The Edge, Larry Mullen Jr. and Adam Clayton and when lead singer Bono reaches out in a close-up you feel obliged to reach back and shak ...

Rambo

January 25th, 2008
Rambo like last years Balboa is another rest-on-your-laurels make work project for Sylvester Stallone who not only stars in but wrote and directed the picture. We first met the brooding John Rambo in the 1982 filmed in BC First Blood and 26 years later he’s still not over the post traumatic stress of Viet Nam. He’s now a recluse in Thailand wrangling cobras for snake charmers who entertain th ...

Untraceable

January 25th, 2008
Untraceable stars Diane Lane as Jennifer Marsh, a single mom agent with the Portland Oregon branch of the FBI. On some kind of stress duty following the death of her husband killed in the line of duty she’s become a computer geek out of necessity but feels quite at home with her naturally nerdy co-workers who spend their days busting cyber criminals. The job gets intense however when a supe ...
