Gettin’ on a plane tomorrow for England, so screenings are pretty much out of the question. The only movie on my agenda for the week (unless I see something in England, which I probably won’t want to take the time out for) is the one I just came from a screening of: Drew Barrymore’s directorial … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Oh, I wish more people were as obnoxious and aggressive as Michael Moore. He’s just about the only one pushing back (other than Jon Stewart). I love to see how embarrassed those Wall Streeters are when he gets in their faces here. They should be embarrassed. But … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Oh, snap! It’d be funny if it hadn’t come out of my pocket, which held a couple of pennies and some lint and is now empty. But I’m delighted that all those needy CEOs will sleep securely tonight in their golden parachutes. Because nothing is more heartwarming … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… “If i told them once, I told them a thousand times: ‘Spinal Tap’ first, ‘puppet show’ second…” I’ve been seeing ads for this film in the London Underground, and I was sure it had to be a joke. And when I started searching online for info about … more…

Michael Moore — that wacko filmmaker behind such incendiary rants as Bowling for Columbine, Fahrenheit 9/11, and Sicko — is up to his crazy-ass lunacy again. He’s got a new documentary just out called Slacker Uprising. Robert Greenwald of Brave New Films, which is helping to distribute the film, explains that: Moore has set his … more…
My picks for the best and worst movies of the year are no secret to anyone who follows my annual ranking of every new theatrical release I see. The ranking is a work-in-progress throughout the year. It begins when I see the first movie slated for release within a calendar year — for 2007, that … more…
Make no mistake: *Sicko* is an explicit call for revolution, and it is a profound and horrifying one.
About half my best-of’s for 2002 were clear and ready choices, films I fell instantly in love with, that completely blew my mind, that utterly awed me in their fabulosity — I’ll leave it as an exercise to the reader to figure out which those were. Filling out the rest of the list was tough … more…
Michael Moore is pissed off. Not exactly a newsflash, I know, but nobody is as entertaining when he’s about to bust a gut as Moore is, so his rants are always cause for celebration. Though this may only be true if you’re predisposed to agree with the substance of his rants.
