"The American" (R, 95 minutes). George Clooney is starkly defined as a criminal as obedient and...
Roger Ebert, Roger Ebert 08-31-2010

"The American" allows George Clooney to play a man as starkly defined as a samurai. His fatal flaw, as it must be for any samurai, is love. Other than that, the American is perfect: Sealed, impervious and expert, with a focus so narrow it is defined only by his skills and his master....

Film Reviews: A bicoastal comedy with a bit of a bipolar disorder.
Justin Chang, Variety 08-19-2010

A geographically challenged relationship is put to the test in "Going the Distance," a bicoastal comedy with a bit of a bipolar disorder. While mostly free of overt gross-out moments, this uneven effort saddles its likable leads, Drew Barrymore and Justin Long, with the kind of...

That's Amore!
Barbara Sanon 06-19-2010

Tilda Swinton stars in and co-produced I Am Love, a film about a woman’s slow undoing.  Tilda, looking like a stoic and yet fragile statue, assumes a conflicted identity in this film.  Throughout I Am Love she speaks fluent Italian in playing Emma Recchi, the Russian-born wife of...

Blade Runner (1982) FUTURISTIC 'BLADE RUNNER'
Janet Maslin, Ny Times

THE view of the future offered by Ridley Scott's muddled yet mesmerizing ''Blade Runner'' is as intricately detailed as anything a science-fiction film has yet envisioned. The year is 2019, the place Los Angeles, the landscape garish but bleak. The city is a canyon bounded by industrial towers,...

The Usual Suspects (1995) FILM REVIEW; Putting Guys Like That in a Room Together
Janet Maslin, Ny Times

The tough guys of "The Usual Suspects" radiate confidence in their own movie-mythic possibilities, secure in the knowledge that they are this year's Reservoir Dogs. And it's not even a stretch, since Bryan Singer's immensely stylish film noir incorporates so many good masculine roles and such...

Seven (1995) FILM REVIEW; A Sickening Catalogue of Sins, Every One of Them Deadly
Janet Maslin, Ny Times

In "Seven," a grim urban environment is rocked by horrible murders, each more gruesome than the last and each with strong ties to the local library. It seems that the killer, showily conversant with Dante, Milton, Chaucer and no doubt Agatha Christie, has devised an orderly string of crimes that...
