Phone Booth

Lowest Recommended Age:Mature High Schooler
Movie Release Date:2003

Even the most paranoid fantasies have to make sense at some level, and this one just doesn’t. The premise is all right. Colin Farrell plays Stu, whose job is Hollywood’s favorite indicator of utter corruption — he’s a publicist. We [...]

Movie Release Date:2003

It’s hard to imagine what attracted such a high-powered cast to this this forgettable little movie about a small-town girl with a dream. It’s almost a “Far From Heaven”-style tribute to the movies we like to think of as being [...]

Lowest Recommended Age:Mature High Schooler
Movie Release Date:2003

It’s not Stephen King’s best book, and it is far from the best screenplay produced by either Lawrence Kasden (“Raiders of the Lost Ark” and “The Big Chill”) or William Goldman (“The Princess Bride,” “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid”). [...]

The Hangover Part III
Let's hope that this movie is the much-needed stake in the heart to the triligization of popular movies (okay, with an exception for Richard Linklater's "Before" series and "Toy Story").  I began to think of the three films as a shell game, with the pea of novelty and humor under just one shell, an

Jen Chaney Ranks the "Fast and Furious" Movies
Just in time for the release of the sixth in the series of car chase extravaganzas that began with "The Fast and the Furious" is Esquire's smart and funny assessment of installments 1-6 from my friend Jen Chaney. It’s tempting to lump all of the Fast and the Furious movies into one massive clutc

More from Disney's Next Release: Planes
[iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/HjcPOZ_z3Ts"] This video, featuring music by the film's composer, Mark Mancina, is much more appealing than the trailer.  I'm beginning to look forward to it.  And do we get a hint that train and boat movies may follow?
