Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Now this is what a trailer is supposed to do: it hints at what you’re gonna get but doesn’t give away the whole story, lets you know who’s starring but doesn’t spoil their performances. Then again, this movie is aimed at the crowd that doesn’t want to … more…
Take a look back at an old trailer… Teenage girls: tantalyzing and terrorizing! I remember that dramatic and important even in my young life, when I had to decide whether to join a gang, go it alone, or mate. Blowing off a date to spend the evening with girlfriends is daring and defiant? They’re more … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… I’m glad I hadn’t seen this trailer before I saw the film last night, because I had no idea where the story was gonna go, and I wouldn’t have been as wonderfully in the dark if I’d seen this. It doesn’t spoil everything, and in fact, the … more…

Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Romance! Intrigue! Royalty! Politics! Assassination! Ruffles! Sideburns! What’s not to love? Don’t tell anybody — shhh! — but all of a sudden, between this film and Creation (both of which I’ve now seen), I suddenly have a little bit of a crush on Paul Bettany. It’s probably … more…
Here it’s already Wednesday, and I’m just getting around to this now. But that’s okay, actually, because my “week” at the movies pretty much begins today. I did see The Young Victoria (already available on DVD in the U.K.; opens in the U.S. on December 18) yesterday, and I quite liked it. But today and … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Isn’t that the same remote mountain monastery/martial arts training ground where Batman went to study? Or is it a franchise? “Raised to become an assassin” made me hope that the next placard would be something like “but he really wants to dance!” But it wasn’t. Wow. This … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Oh, I’m terrified that the movie cannot possibly be as hilarious as this trailer is. Cuz if it is, I’m gonna die laughing. Maybe that’s part of the psychic warfare. “The silence of the goats.” I love it. The Men Who Stare at Goats opens in the … more…
As of this writing, 12 movies will open wide in North America in the month of November. Which means that even if you’re an active moviegoer and see a movie each week, you’ve still gotta pick and choose (and it’s even worse if you’re in a city on the arthouse circuit, but let’s not make … more…
