Review of King Kong (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 14 Dec 2005

Jackson was again driven by a vision that no one else could see until he put it on the screen, and the result is as close as effects-driven…

Review of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 09 Dec 2005

The result is mostly engaging, but rarely soars or sings with imagination, poetry, whimsy or the sort of surprise that can take your breath away…

Review of The Squid and the Whale (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 09 Dec 2005

The film has been nominated for six Independent Spirit Awards -- including nominations as best picture and best director…

Review of Bee Season (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 06 Dec 2005

The premise is intriguing, but the oddly toned screenplay is a mostly opaque and convoluted string of dramatically convenient yet inconsistent…

Review of Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take One (1968)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 10 Nov 2005

It is the film equivalent of watching sausage or legislation being made, whose experimental flavor is an acquired taste…

Review of Paradise Now (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 10 Nov 2005

How else to understand and, more to the point, pre-empt such actions…

Review of Get Rich or Die Tryin' (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 09 Nov 2005

At no time in his career has Sheridan -- his name is the first one on the screen after the title, in case one is uncertain who was in charge…

Review of Shopgirl (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 03 Nov 2005

It is reassuring to watch the way [Danes] must go up to get down, to finally find her balance…

Review of Good Night, and Good Luck. (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 03 Nov 2005

As overflowing as an ashtray with details that are so ingrained into the whole as to become almost invisible but which are critical to mood and tone…

Review of The Weather Man (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 26 Oct 2005

The Doppler-savvy The Weather Man may know which way the wind blows but just doesn't have the common sense to caulk the windows to keep the…

Review of Elizabethtown (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 13 Oct 2005

Elizabethtown strikes a note here and there, but does so while remaining tuneless and formless overall…

Review of The War Within (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 12 Oct 2005

A haunting portrait of how the only thing necessary for evil to triumph in the vacuum of an uncertain world is ideological certainty…

Review of Everything Is Illuminated (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 05 Oct 2005

Schreiber's formal yet poetic aesthetic, from snapshots of clashing cultures, values and chronologies to the irresistible metaphor of an army…

Review of Thumbsucker (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 05 Oct 2005

Fittingly, each character has, if not a story to tell, then a story arc, and with it a chance to change, to heal and to come of age…

Review of Serenity (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 29 Sep 2005

The Serenity itself is a low-tech Millennium Falcon-type scow, losing parts on its way to another hard landing, and the film's effects are…

Review of A History of Violence (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 29 Sep 2005

A History of Violence combines the visceral punch of Sam Peckinpah's Straw Dogs with the oppressive uncertainty of any of Alfred Hitchcock's…

Review of Proof (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 28 Sep 2005

What was perfectly calibrated and compelling on stage seems mechanical and perfunctory on film…

Review of Nobody Knows (2004)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 21 Sep 2005

While this could be the stuff of tabloid fodder at the one extreme or family fare uplift at the other, it is actually an observational meditation…

Review of 2046 (2004)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 21 Sep 2005

The result is almost fetishistic, come-hither doodling of Wong's own making. He is a craftsman mumbling to himself in a language only he understands…

Review of The Great Raid (2005)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 10 Aug 2005

While the film is often impressive and inspirational, more of the credit for this belongs to the actual events themselves than to their re-creation…
