Review of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 20 Dec 2011

The new Tattoo is buoyed by Fincher's peerless craftsmanship…

Review of Young Adult (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 15 Dec 2011

The cast is uniformly good - this is a hallmark of director Jason Reitman, who has an uncanny ability to put the right actor in the right role…

Review of The Sitter (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 08 Dec 2011

You can feel in Sitter that Hill is getting tired of this routine, that he wants to shed his own skin…

Review of Shame (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 08 Dec 2011

The role leaves Fassbender naked in front of the camera in ways literal and figurative…

Review of The Muppets (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 23 Nov 2011

I found The Muppets movie to be highly tolerable, and agreeably low on the Miss Piggy involvement scale…

Review of Hugo (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 23 Nov 2011

A movie for grown-up film buffs, but one children can enjoy, so long as they don't mind a history lesson on the founding fathers of cinema,…

Review of Into the Abyss (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 17 Nov 2011

A disturbing profile of a rural Texas community where disintegrated families produce a culture dominated by substance abuse, violence, illiteracy…

Review of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 17 Nov 2011

It's like Roadhouse for women. As irresistible as it is ridiculous…

Review of The Descendants (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 17 Nov 2011

Descendants finds its footing, hitting Payne's unique note of comedy/drama, and benefits greatly from some terrific third-act appearances by…

Review of J. Edgar (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 10 Nov 2011

This is conceptually interesting, but it's clumsily delivered by Eastwood, whose movie is a succession of dull interior scenes, expository…

Review of Jack and Jill (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 10 Nov 2011

It feels a little lazy, like Dugan and Sandler didn't work hard enough to iron out the premise…

Review of Melancholia (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 10 Nov 2011

If you can stand it, Melancholia pivots drastically at its midpoint, and becomes something else, something far more watchable…

Review of Tower Heist (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 03 Nov 2011

There's a nice ensemble feel, the cast is easy to root for, and although Ratner goes big and broad during the finale (Thanksgiving Day Parade),…

Review of The Skin I Live In (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 03 Nov 2011

Banderas has some hair-raising scenes with Anaya as his in-house patient/muse…

Review of Anonymous (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 26 Oct 2011

Books have been written to argue that de Vere, Earl of Oxford, is the true author of Shakespeare's work, and if this subject interests you…

Review of Anonymous (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 26 Oct 2011

Books have been written to argue that de Vere, Earl of Oxford, is the true author of Shakespeare's work, and if this subject interests you…

Review of The Rum Diary (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 26 Oct 2011

The Rum Diary panders to fans of the Thompson legend with very broad drug-booze comedy that sits uneasily with the movie's pretentions to anti-colonial…

Review of Martha Marcy May Marlene (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 26 Oct 2011

Olsen makes all of this seem vividly real, and each of her scenes is alive with tension, so that Durkin's nonlinear, episodic narrative never…

Review of Take Shelter (2011)

By Gary Thompson (1,554) for Philadelphia Daily News (1,596) on 19 Oct 2011

Shannon's talent can be hard to control - it can burst the containment of his character and destabilize a movie - but in Take Shelter it is…
