Other Guys, The (2010)

Comedy Rated PG-13

“At any moment, the movie will press its own pause button, abandon the plot and take off on some deranged comic tangent.

Switch, The (2010)

Romantic Comedy Rated PG-13

“A textbook case of Hollywood chauvinism.

Piranha (1978)

Horror Rated R

“…not quite a thriller, not quite a spoof.”

I Was Born, but… (1932)

Comedy Rated NR

A review of Ozu’s silent masterpiece, which was rereleased earlier this summer.

Piranha 3D (2010)

Horror Rated R

What was a light-hearted 1978 B movie about ravenous piranha has become a dreary, sadistic chore in the hands of hateful horror specialist Alexandre Aja (High Tension, 2006’s The Hills Have Eyes).

“I’m beginning to suspect that writer-producer-actor Seth Rogen is up to foul play.

Get Low (2010)

Drama Rated PG-13

The cast is the best thing in Get Low, a jerry-built period piece about forgiveness that stars – thankfully – Robert Duvall and Bill Murray.

Restrepo (2010)

Documentary Rated R

“Valuable … but misses a golden opportunity to intersect access and art.

Kids Are All Right, The (2010)

Drama Rated R

One of the most emotionally cathartic movies of 2010. Annette Bening and Julianne Moore play Nic and Jules, a married couple on the tail end of parenthood. Their daughter, Joni (Mia Wasikowska), is on her way to college, while their son, Laser (Josh Hutcherson), is in high school. Nic and Jules are happy and proud

Predator (1987)

Action/Adventure Rated R

In case you’re thinking about seeing Predators this week, here’s what you might be in for…

Comedy Rated PG-13

“… the central idea is tantalizing and the cast is having so much fun…”

The Drama (2026)

Drama Rated R

“… inflicts a contrived construct on Zendaya and Robert Pattinson, one from which they never escape.”
