Movie Reviews

  • it won't be hard at all to choose to skip this film and instead to look for a good book to read
    2 of 4 by Peter Howell [Toronto Star ]
  • is frustrating not because it's an uninteresting movie, but because there's a sense that something better and more ambitious lurks without achieving escape velocity
