Movie Review: What could be funnier than “Being Canadian”?
So, how much do we South of the Border types really know about our frozen sisters and brothers in the Great White North? Well, they’re white. And polite. And seriously insecure about the Land of Opportunity that exists just below … Continue reading

Labor Day Box Office: “Walk in the Woods” opens well, “Transporter” skids out
A decent weekend for the old guys as “A Walk in the Woods” reaches for an audience Hollywood generally ignores, and finds it. It’s earned a few million since opening Wed., and is expected to near $13 million over the … Continue reading

Weekend Movies — “Transporter” spins out, “Walk in the Woods” ambles, “Jobs” is a winner
The producers hid “The Transporter Refueled” from critics. Clever Frenchies. They know, “No Statham, no ‘Transporter.’” They didn’t need critics to tell them. But we did. Over and over again. This new fellow, Skrein, whom I’ve seen in a few … Continue reading

Movie Review: “War Room”
The Kendrick Brothers, those Southern Baptist preachers-turned-filmmakers, go Hollywood and take a step or two backward with “War Room,” their first film since abandoning the pulpit. Because “What I REALLY wanna do is direct.” I’d say they “sold out,” but … Continue reading
Movie Review: “The Transporter Refueled”
First Principle. No Jason Statham? No “Transporter.” Sure, Clive Owen managed a fair impersonation of one in those BMW commercials (short movies) that came out shortly after Statham and Luc Besson’s Man-of-Few-Words getaway driver in France film opened. But could … Continue reading

Movie Review: “Chloe & Theo”
From the earnest and environmentally righteous story to the profanity re-dubbed into “friggin’,” “Chloe and Theo” feels like Dakota Johnson’s atonement for the meretricious slime that was “Fifty Shades of Grey.” Sure, this indie fish-out-of-water dramedy about an Inuit (Eskimo) … Continue reading

Movie Review: “A Walk in the Woods”
They’re just a couple of sway-backed, high-mileage actors, each a dozen years older than their characters and showing it. They cuss and fuss and reminisce and make all the same mistakes Reese Witherspoon’s character made in “Wild.” And then some. … Continue reading

Movie Review: “Dirty Weekend”
Neil LaBute’s fascination with shifting sexual politics in the world and the workplace is the crux of “Dirty Weekend,” a rather dull and talkative comedy about two mismatched colleagues trapped in Albuquerque for a day of true confessions and misbehavior. … Continue reading

Movie Review: “Bloodsucking Bastards”
There’s a new set of criteria movies — especially indie films with little or no marketing — must meet. And Indie World is a little slow catching onto it. Used to be, you made your indie film with festivals in … Continue reading

Final Summer Box Office Weekend: “War Room” routs “No Escape” and Zac Efron is no longer a movie star
The Kendrick Brothers’ latest faith-based foray was marketed to Protestant churchgoers and is doing the kind of business that “Facing the Giants” and “Fireproof” could only dream of. It’s running second at the box office, as of Friday night, and … Continue reading
