reviews by year

I hope if you plunked down your ten bucks for ‘Deja Vu’ this weekend that you stormed out of the theater when it was over and demanded you money back from the multiplex manager. Cuz this is one of the worst instances of the false adverstising of a movie that I can remember.

A hilarious bastard child of ‘This Is Spinal Tap’ and ‘Wayne’s World,’ and one of the funniest movies I’ve seen this year.

“I didn’t know, I didn’t know, I didn’t know,” I said to myself at the devastating end of ‘Bobby’: I had no idea how important Bobby Kennedy was to so many people.

To say that *Fast Food Nation* the movie is less horrifying than the book is accurate, but not fair to the movie, which is plenty horrifying enough. Linklater puts a human face on a situation that is so huge that it just about paralyzes you.

Exactly what I was hoping for, and everything I was expecting from the first Generation X James Bond.

So yeah, *Shut Up & Sing* is massively depressing, and highlights some of the hypocrisies and idiocies of American public life, and points out how goddamn fucking ignorant some Americans are, and makes you want to just give up and move to Mars and start all over again with a new revolution.

Before ‘Harsh Times’ I would have sworn that there was no role that could trip up Christian Bale…
