"Viva Riva!" is by-the-numbers tale of criminal trying to make it big Friday, July 15, 2011 @ 12:22PMThe Democratic Republic of Congo is a very different place from the settings of most gangster films we see here, but "Viva Riva!" would be right at home in a collection of underworld movies. This is a mostly by-the-numbers tale of a young criminal trying to make it big.
'Pianomania' documentary may have sounded like a good idea Thursday, July 14, 2011 @ 5:08PM"Pianomania," a documentary about piano tuners and technicians, is potentially interesting, but not when it has to compete with dramatic footage of musicians such as Lang Lang actually playing the piano. The film is playing at the Varsity, in Seattle.
Burdened in a Ravaged South Africa Thursday, July 14, 2011 @ 4:50PM“Life, Above All,” a grave and quietly moving story about a South African girl of extraordinary character, does something that few painful dramas accomplish: It tells a tale of resilience without platitudes about the triumph of the human spirit or without false promises about an unclouded future.
Wild Cherry (Blu-ray) Wednesday, July 13, 2011 @ 8:56PMSkip It So, at one point in Wild Cherry , there's a montage of some football player jerking off into one of those plastic ice cube tray thingies, day after day after day, and those jizz-cubes wind up getting dunked [click on the thumbnail to enlarge] into a ...

The Music Room: The Criterion Collection (Blu-ray) Monday, July 11, 2011 @ 2:11PMHighly Recommended THE MOVIE: It's too bad Criterion didn't release their edition of Satyajit Ray's The Music Room at the same time they released Wes Anderson's The Darjeeling Limited . Anyone who has spent any time with the more recent movie's soundtrack will instantly recognize the song that opens The Music Room . Indeed, Anderson used lots of cues from older Indian films in Darjeeling , and ...
the STORY Monday, July 11, 2011 @ 11:19AMSeemingly assembled from the recycled limbs and organs of cult films from various genres, Troll Hunter is an endearing little Frankenstein’s monster of a movie.
Hammerhead (1968) Monday, July 11, 2011 @ 11:09AMRecommended Maybe they screwed around with it in post-production. Sony's own line of M.O.D. (manufactured on demand) disc raids their old Columbia Pictures vaults for Hammerhead , the appropriately titled 1968 spy picture starring Ben Casey 's Vince Edwards and the adorable Judy Geeson, with a whole slew of familiar British faces like Diana Dors, Peter Vaughan, Michael Bates and Patrick Cargill ...
Romeo and Juliet in Yiddish Thursday, July 7, 2011 @ 10:37PMThere have been many untraditional film adaptations of Shakespeare's, but few have been as unorthodox as this one, which plays out as a star-crossed romance between rival Satmar Jewish sects on the mean streets of Williamsburg (and Coney Island) in what's billed as the first mumblecore film in...

Black Moon: The Criterion Collection (Blu-ray) Thursday, July 7, 2011 @ 8:11PMRecommended THE MOVIE: One man's nonsense is...well, another man's nonsense, most likely. But if nonsense is your thing... If one applies the word "nonsense" as its literal dictionary meaning, then Louis Malle's 1975 surrealistic pill Black Moon doesn't really fit. There's an obvious method to the madness here. Images reoccur, veins of expression expand, Malle builds his dream world by ...

A Rage To Live Thursday, July 7, 2011 @ 7:09AMRecommended Lush, husky-voiced Suzanne Pleshette as a nymphomaniac? Count me in. M-G-M's terrific M.O.D. (manufactured on demand) on-line disc service has released A Rage To Live (technically, the credits list the film as, John O'Hara's "A Rage to Live" , a 1965 super-sudser from United Artists, base on the 1949 best-selling pot boiler from O'Hara, and starring Pleshette, Bradford Dillman, Ben ...
Cross Thursday, July 7, 2011 @ 7:08AMSkip It In a barren market, a film like Cross is poisoned water to viewers thirsting for comic-influenced action, but in one as saturated as the current movie landscape, I can't think of a single reason anyone would bother with it. Throw a rock and you'll hit a better superhero movie -- one with a bigger budget, one with better performances, one with smarter writing...one with anything worth ...
Rammbock: Berlin Undead DVD Review Tuesday, July 5, 2011 @ 10:54PMRammbock wastes no time getting its audience into the morose zombie mayhem.

Kidnapping tale deserves 'Rapt' attention Tuesday, July 5, 2011 @ 10:06PMBelgian director Lucas Belvaux didn't plan it that way, of course, but his thriller "Rapt" has parallels to the case of Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the rich, politically connected French banker accused of molesting a maid in a Manhattan hotel. The psychological thriller, based on the 1978 kidnapping of Baron Edouard-Jean...

Zazie dans le metro: The Criterion Collection (Blu-ray) Tuesday, July 5, 2011 @ 8:56PMRecommended THE MOVIE: " All Paris is a dream, Zazie is a reverie, and all this is a reverie within a dream... " Louis Malle's 1960 French comedy Zazie dans le m tro is a children's film dressed up in its grandparents' clothes. This madcap, surreal look at one little girl's day trip to Paris is silly fun, though alternately old fashioned and progressive, adopting well-worn styles of cinematic ...
Rewind: 'Hobo With a Shotgun' not just another pretty name Tuesday, July 5, 2011 @ 6:52PM'Hobo With a Shotgun' Rutger Hauer stars in what is easily one of the most absurdly and honestly titled films of the year. In "Hobo With a Shotgun," he plays a hobo, and in his hands is a shotgun.

Movie review: ‘Beginners’ takes on love in many forms Thursday, June 30, 2011 @ 5:00PMMovie review: ‘Beginners’ takes on love in many forms By Sean P. Means The Salt Lake Tribune Published Jun 30, 2011 04:49PM MDT There are so many platitudes one can say about love — how it’s universal and also specific, how it sneaks up on you, how it takes your breath away, how it raises your spirits — that also apply to writer-director Mike Mills’ beautiful movie “Beginners.” This movie deals ...

Frenemy Wednesday, June 29, 2011 @ 4:53PMRent It Frenemy: Frenemy will earn plenty of derision for the Zach Galifianakis thing. Derision, which is misplaced, but it gets the job done anyway. As a weird comedy/ morality play involving gruesome murder, Frenemy will test your limits of appreciation for clever structure and kegger philosophy, as forcefully as it pushes your buttons with unlikable characters. I suppose your ability to enjoy ...
No Siren Call Wednesday, June 29, 2011 @ 2:20PMLe Quattro Volte takes a slow look at four stages of life — mineral, vegetable, animal, human. Piping from countless multiplexes, the siren of summer buzz calls us to mull Green Lantern’ s grosses, to decipher the Jim Carrey–comeback potential of Mr. Popper’s Penguins , to dwell on the Comic-Con dimensions of Transformers: Dark of the Moon , to ponder Julia Roberts and Tom Hanks in Larry Crowne ...
Movie Preview: Delhi Belly Wednesday, June 29, 2011 @ 2:09PMThis rom-com/sex farce seems to have an edge we don’t see in Indian films made for the home market. It’s rather randy, yes? Suggestive? “Delhi Belly,” the title refers to what visitors and foreigners get when they “drink the water” and eat street vendor food on arriving in India (diarrhea) opens at the AMC Universal [...]
Movie review: Sorry, race fans, but 'Cars 2' is a clunker Friday, June 24, 2011 @ 12:49PMBy Steve Persall, Times Film Critic Friday, June 24, 2011 Sidekicks exist to steal the show, not carry it like Tow Mater is asked to do in Cars 2 . The redneck rust bucket is on screen so much that 3-D glasses should come with tetanus shots. The voice of Mater, standup comedian Larry the Cable Guy, wouldn't dream of performing his dumber-than-dirt routine on stage for nearly two hours. No ...

The Nesting (Blu-ray) Thursday, June 23, 2011 @ 9:56AMRent It "Troubled, uptight writer goes to small, sleepy town in search of peace and inspiration. Instead she finds an erupting volcano of lust and passion." Well, at least that's what Lauren Cochran (Robin Groves) thinks the headlines might read. If it's a slow news day or whatever, maybe the press'll bite on a story about an agoraphobic horror novelist trying to stamp out her mental hiccups by ...
Vijay's Kaavalan at Shanghai Film Festival Thursday, June 23, 2011 @ 7:46AMActor Vijay and his movie Kaavalan, were the stars at the Shanghai Film Festival's 14th edition.

Night Flight Thursday, June 23, 2011 @ 6:54AMRecommended I was a little surprised to discover that Night Flight (1933), a long-suppressed, all-star MGM movie, is being released by Warner Home Video as a bona fide DVD, thus going against the trend toward MOD DVD-Rs of classic library titles. Partly this seems due to the film's status as a long-lost all-star epic. Despite heavy-hitters John and Lionel Barrymore, Helen Hayes, Clark Gable ...

Why I’m a sucker for live courtroom TV Saturday, June 18, 2011 @ 11:11PMMy quirky obsession with criminal justice has me watching on live TV a high-profile murder trial with such keen interest that you’d think my own wattled neck, and not just the fate of the accused, lies on the line.
I Want what I Want Friday, June 17, 2011 @ 7:53AMRecommended A real curio, I Want what I Want (1972) is a modest but sincere drama about an unhappy man coming to terms with his sexuality and making the awkward/liberating transition to a new female identity. Anne Heywood, a British actress known for taking on challenging, controversial roles, plays the movie's protagonist, Roy, as Roy slowly becomes Wendy. The movie is both a product of its ...
Tears for fears Friday, June 17, 2011 @ 5:54AM“Bride Flight” is a big, expansive romance about bodily fluids. Some of it is on-screen and some off. There’s a lot of crying by women young and old. That’s definitely on-screen. Whether their men cry too is a more hidden matter. That’s definitely off-screen.

Agatha Christie's Marple: The Pale Horse Tuesday, June 14, 2011 @ 7:11AMRecommended Agatha Christie - Marple (not "Agatha Christie's Marple") has been a mixed success since its debut in 2004. The series was preceded by a positively beloved series of adaptations starring the late Joan Hickson, which ran from 1984 to 1992. Geraldine McEwan played the amateur sleuth from 2004-2009 but fans generally didn't take to her or the extreme liberties the writers often freely ...
The Eagle (2011) Tuesday, June 14, 2011 @ 7:09AMRent It THE FILM Technically, we've already been here, and recently too. Last summer, Neil Marshall's blood-drenched "Centurion" took viewers into the mystery of Rome's legendary Ninth Legion, a group of soldiers who disappeared into Northern British territory after encountering ferocious Pict warriors. "The Eagle" doesn't exactly replay these events, instead it lurches ahead a few decades to ...
