Film Preview: Planet B-Boy (2008)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C Review: This poster is so extremely cluttered that it takes several seconds to realize what it’s even about and that its subject is a breakdancing competition is even farther from representative as it looks…

Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C Review: The poster suggests a film in the vein of Control about a young musician perhaps coming up from hard times. This isn’t far from the truth of the film, but it is a…

2008 Year in Review
The Best | The Worst | The Individual Best The Best Every time I hear someone referring to this year or that year as the “worst this decade” or “the most dismal year in film history”, I wonder how they measure a great year versus a bad year. Did they not give out enough four-star…

2007 Year in Review
The Best | The Worst | The Individual Best The Best 2007 started out as perhaps one of the worst film years in some time. Only Bridge to Terabithia managed to earn a 4-star rating until the very end of the year when I finally saw Away from Her. It snowballed in the last two…

The DVD Report #34
Merry Christmas to all! And to all a good movie on DVD! With the opening of Tim Burton’s film version of Stephen Sondheim’s Sweeney Todd this past weekend, it’s time for my third and final dissertation on the evolution of the movie musical. I left off in 1978 with the dismal screen adaptation of another…

Film Preview: Romance and Cigarettes (2007)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C+ Review: It’s got a woman who’s smoking. The title’s covered, but the viewer’s eyes aren’t and should be as this poster has very little going for it other than a pull for adult men.…

Film Preview: Mamma Mia (2008)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: D+ Review: Sparkly and bold, but hardly inventive. This is the kind of title-only poster that is purposefully uncomplicated and it doesn’t help much. It may entice Abba fans or those familiar with the musical,…

Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: D+ Review: There’s nothing original or exciting about this poster. It’s over-simplified, inelegant and supremely boring. Trailer Rating: C- Review: Another wedding comedy, this time about a man as a maid of honor. Pair this…

Film Preview: Hancock (2008)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B- Review: They went out of their way to make Will Smith relatively off-putting. The hat is ugly and his parched lips are distracting. That the city is reflected in his glasses does helps make…

Film Preview: The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B- Review: It’s almost impossible to tell what the film’s about simply by looking at the poster. You wouldn’t even realize that it features a fish-out-of-water story. The colors are bland and the setting uninteresting.…
