Review: BEGIN AGAIN Reinvents The Movie Musical With A Little Bit Of Street Magic
I know magic when I see it, when I feel it, when I hear it. John Carney's marvelously understated, dexterously graceful Begin Again contains at least three sequences that are absolutely, unexpectedly magical. Frankly, after a single viewing, I'm not...
AnarchyVision: Jason Gorber Talks POMPEII, 3 DAYS TO KILL, TIM'S VERMEER And THE WIND RISES

I had some time during the generally tedious Ender's Game to let my mind drift, hearkening back to a time when I would have been genuinely excited to see this kind of film on screen. I'd have been a young teen,...
Review: ROMEO & JULIET, I Pray Thee Know This Movie Loves Close-Ups
If every generation gets the Romeo & Juliet it deserves, then this generation is doomed to relive the past in a reverential and utterly unremarkable series of close-ups. Adapted without distinction by Julian Fellowes and directed without distraction by Carlo...
ENDER'S GAME Belongs To Harrison Ford, According To New Trailer
As much as I enjoyed Orson Scott Card's novel when I read it sometime in the 1990s, I can't help feeling that the movie version looks completely generic so far. And the newest trailer doesn't change that feeling. What the...
ENDER'S GAME Trailer Offers Nothing New in Blockbuster Landscape
