Review of The Ladykillers (2004)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 25 Mar 2004

It's insulting when such savvy filmmakers expect us to laugh automatically at four-letter words, bathroom humor, and caricatures as crude as…

Review of Never Die Alone (2004)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 25 Mar 2004

This throwback to the outmoded blaxploitation genre is skillfully filmed by Dickerson, but has little else to offer besides cheap, violent thrills…

Review of Love and Death on Long Island (1998)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 21 Mar 2004

Hurt gives an astonishingly sensitive and funny performance as the bedazzled intellectual, and first-time filmmaker Kwietniowski unfolds the…

Review of Taking Lives (2004)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 18 Mar 2004

No amount of technical skill can substitute for genuine shivers, and in the fright department this picture rarely lives up to its hype…

Review of Intermission (2003)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 18 Mar 2004

It's surprising that so much material, so many moods, and such an interesting cast end up making such a small, unmemorable splash…

Review of Hamlet (2000)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 17 Mar 2004

The acting is smart and gritty, Almereyda's visual style has a raw immediacy found in few films with Shakespearean pedigrees, and an eclectic…

Review of Phone Booth (2003)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 16 Mar 2004

Has undertones of serious commentary on American violence, thanks to the screenplay by Larry Cohen, who often uses horror-film plots to explore…

Review of Man on the Moon (1999)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 15 Mar 2004

Less a biography than an essay on theatrical illusion and the changing nature of comedy. Love it or hate it, you've never seen anything quite like it…

Review of Wilbur Wants to Kill Himself (2002)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 11 Mar 2004

Directed and cowritten by a veteran of Denmark's no-frills Dogma 95 movement, this is a quiet, no-frills drama with simple human values at its core…

Review of Twelve Monkeys (1995)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 07 Mar 2004

Bruce Willis is bruisingly good as the hero and Brad Pitt is suitably zany as the activist who dogs his trail…

Review of Hope Floats (1998)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 28 Feb 2004

The story is slow and corny, but Whitaker gives commendable dignity to his everyday characters, and the acting is emotionally strong as long…

Review of My Fellow Americans (1996)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 26 Feb 2004

Peter Segal's comedy has a few witty moments surrounded by a lot of silliness…

Review of Twisted: The Untold Story of a Royal Vizier (2013)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 26 Feb 2004

Surely it couldn't be meant as dramatic realism! But it is. And amazingly, the movie gets worse as it goes along…

Review of The Passion of the Christ (2004)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 24 Feb 2004

Expertly made, thanks largely to Jim Caviezel's fervent portrayal of Jesus and Caleb Deschanel's skillful camera work…

Review of The Big Animal (2000)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 19 Feb 2004

The drama is a gentle, witty parable of the mixed feelings some people show toward free choice when it confronts them not in theory but in…

Review of Against the Ropes (2004)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 19 Feb 2004

Acted and directed with a savvy understatement that perfectly matches the eccentric story…

Grand Canyon finds Kasdan in firm control of a restrained and intelligent style…

Review of Robot Stories (2003)
