Good Morning, Vietnam (1987)

Comedy Rated R

This should serve as the definitive litmus test for your tolerance of Williams’ manic style. If you can’t take him here, chance are you won’t be able to take him anywhere. The story makes for a nice match with the comedian’s motormouth sensibility. Williams plays Adrian Cronauer, an Air Force deejay who is transferred to

Spiderwick Chronicles, The (2008)

Action/Adventure Rated PG

“…a wonderful stand-in for childhood itself, when kids often have adventures involving things only they can see.

I Know Who Killed Me (2007)

Thriller Rated R

“…a weird combination of Showgirls, Saw and – what with Lohan’s robotic hand – The Empire Strikes Back.

Who’s Your Caddy? (2007)

Comedy Rated PG-13

"…populated exclusively by clownish characters – of every color."

Citizen Kane (1941)

Drama Rated NR

“The cinema through Rosebud-colored glasses.”

Becoming Jane (2007)

Romantic Comedy Rated PG-13

“Contrived and hokey where Austen’s work is effortless and romantic…

Bourne Ultimatum, The (2007)

Action/Adventure Rated PG-13

“The way that Bourne gets from one place to another with such speed and no obvious source of money makes me wish he was my travel agent.

Ten, The (2007)

Comedy Rated R

“…never fully takes advantage of its biblical premise.”

Arctic Tale (2007)

Documentary Rated G

The magic of March of the Penguins was the way the movie drew its narrative from the actual, odd patterns of nature itself. Arctic Tale, another frigid feature from National Geographic Films, forces our human sense of story on the animals we see, namely a walrus calf and a pair of polar bear cubs negotiating

Underdog (2007)

Family Rated PG

“The adults in Underdog appear to be having a really good time, and that helps the adults in the audience have a fairly good one.

Drama Rated PG
