Review of The Last September (2000)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 21 Jul 2009

The quality of acting in September, coupled with Idziak's images, warrant a visit…

Review of Bopha! (1993)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 30 Jun 2009

It is a great performance by Danny Glover, the portrait of a proud man who discovers his pride was entrusted to the wrong things…

Review of The Crocodile Hunter: Collision Course (2002)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 29 May 2009

Has a weirdly divided structure that alternates Irwin's nature segments with clumsy dramatic footage set in the CIA…

Review of Happiness (1998)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 12 May 2009

The aftertaste of that father-son scene is so strong, so disturbing, that the riches of Happiness -- its writing, its performances, its trenchant…

Review of Focus (2001)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 03 May 2009

About American anti-Semitism, but it's not a typical genteel cause movie…

Review of The Tango Lesson (1997)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 10 Apr 2009

Surprisingly, Potter takes what seemed like a recipe for embarrassment and excess and delivers a film that's sweet and understated and devoid…

Review of Johnny English (2003)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 23 Jan 2009

By playing the boob so brilliantly, Atkinson allows us the catharsis of recognizing our own incompetencies and lack of poise…

Review of Matchstick Men (2003)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 18 Dec 2008

A clever look at con artists and their games of deception…

Review of Walking and Talking (1996)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 01 Dec 2008

I don't want to damn Holofcener's efforts with faint praise, but the best way to describe Walking and Talking is to say that it's pleasant…

Review of Gummo (1997)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 31 Oct 2008

It's an interesting technique -- the blurring of reality and movies -- but Korine's objective is so narrow and mean, and his viewpoint so colored…

Review of Marion Bridge (2003)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 03 Sep 2008

Downbeat but ultimately hopeful, it's a domestic tragedy that cuts clearly to the bone, finding emotional nuance among the family's knotty…

Review of One Eight Seven (1997)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 23 Aug 2008

The movie was written by Scott Yagemann, who taught seven years in the Los Angeles public- school system, and you can feel the rancor and bitterness…

Review of Paris Is Burning (1991)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 12 May 2008

Wildly entertaining, deeply humanitarian and fundamentally educational film…

Review of Smoke (1995)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 24 Apr 2008

A showcase for Wang's greatest strengths as a film maker: a chance to explore friendships, connections and random serendipities…

Review of Limbo (1999)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 21 Apr 2008

Both halves of the film are exquisitely acted and written, both are emotionally true, and yet they don't quite fit together…

Review of Lost Highway (1997)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 10 Apr 2008

It's a weird movie, in that spooky/sicko, deadpan way that Lynch's movies always are, and it's guaranteed to repel anyone who likes entertainment…

Review of What a Girl Wants (2003)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 31 Mar 2008

Dreadful teen comedy with a Cinderella theme…

Review of Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight (1995)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 09 Feb 2008

The movie isn't particularly well-paced, and I found it dull…

Review of Get Shorty (1995)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 28 Jan 2008

Get Shorty is exquisitely cast, with droll, well-nuanced performances…

Review of The Secret Garden (1993)

By Edward Guthmann (364) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 21 Jan 2008
