Review of The Illusionist (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 18 Aug 2006

If you want to see the best narrative film of the year so far, and are willing to be hypnotized by period, plot and intriguing characters,…

Review of A Scanner Darkly (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 14 Jul 2006

An interesting idea, with which almost nothing is done…

Review of 12 and Holding (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 07 Jul 2006

Toes a fine line between docudrama and agitprop…

Review of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 07 Jul 2006

Depp is disappointing and reminiscent of the Roadrunner, dashing around until somebody actually or figuratively bops him on the head…

Review of A Prairie Home Companion (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 30 Jun 2006

It's all pleasant, mildly amusing, and mostly of interest to fans of the radio show. Others may find it less than riveting…

Review of Wordplay (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 30 Jun 2006

Less than riveting filmmaking, but if you're a puzzler, you'll probably enjoy it…

Review of An Inconvenient Truth (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 23 Jun 2006

Though the information is dense and seems a bit like a college lecture, Gore and his presentation come across as quite engaging…

Review of Cars (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 23 Jun 2006

If you see Cars, you'll have a pretty good time yourself…

Review of Art School Confidential (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 02 Jun 2006

Unfortunately, Clowes' script is lame and littered with stereotypes, and the performances of Max Minghella, Sophia Myles, John Malkovich, Jim…

Review of Keeping Up with the Steins (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 26 May 2006

Peopled as it is with stereotypes, it's easy to see the script the way Rose sees Irwin: 'Is that you, under all that oldness…

Review of Mrs Palfrey at The Claremont (2005)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 19 May 2006

It's all sweet and well acted (and well enough directed by Dan Ireland), but it's also yawn-provoking and maddening that the script is so far…

Review of The Da Vinci Code (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 19 May 2006

Suffice it to say that this film isn't as bad as it is simply dopey and dull, and that nothing I or any other critic says will dissuade millions…

Review of The Notorious Bettie Page (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 05 May 2006

The film, which should be at least engrossing (if not downright titillating), seems lifeless as a 'before' ad for the latest shampoo…

Review of Hoot (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 05 May 2006

The young actors are convincing enough, but the adult characters are so stereotypical, the script so pedestrian that adult viewers are likely…

Review of The Devil and Daniel Johnston (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 07 Apr 2006

A sad, occasionally funny but ultimately merely mildly interesting film…

Review of Take the Lead (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 07 Apr 2006

A surprisingly good watch, predictability notwithstanding…

Review of Thank You for Smoking (2005)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 31 Mar 2006

Whether you're a political junkie, smoker, entrepreneur or film fan, you'll love this movie…

Review of Find Me Guilty (2006)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 25 Mar 2006

If you remember the case, or have any idea how film scripts generally go, you'll guess the end before the courtroom action starts…

Review of The Boys of Baraka (2005)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 11 Mar 2006

Regardless of its shortcomings, The Boys of Baraka introduces a project that seems to do for Baltimore what Jaime Escalante did for inner-city…
