Review of Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 20 Jan 2016

An intermittently enjoyable bad movie that never knows when to stop…

Review of Return to Paradise (1998)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 10 Jan 2016

None of the moral ramifications of this dilemma is avoided, and to the film’s credit the behavior of the American press seems more questionable…

Review of In the Valley of Elah (2007)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 31 Dec 2015

Searing drama that uses the police procedural to explore the moral and psychological devastation of the Iraq war for U.S…

Review of Citizen Ruth (1996)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 23 Dec 2015

Payne is just as guilty of using her (Ruth) as a figurehead for his ideas--most of them about the stupidity and futility of politics--as are…

Review of The Thomas Crown Affair (1999)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 22 Dec 2015

It's a piece of disposable fluff -- though that's exactly what's so appealing about it…

Review of A Bronx Tale (1993)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 15 Dec 2015

Despite some sentimentality and occasional directorial missteps, this is a respectable piece of work--evocative, very funny in spots, and obviously…

Review of The Low Down (2001)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 14 Dec 2015

This kind of filmmaking is riddled with so-called errors, but these mistakes are indistinguishable from the uncommon rewards…

Review of The 11th Hour (2007)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 05 Dec 2015

Though the filmmaking isn't everything it might have been (the opening montage is especially clumsy), their argument is compelling, absorbing,…

Review of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze (1991)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 03 Dec 2015

One can have a reasonably amusing time with this predictable sequel, which is a bit longer on action and shorter on wit and character than…

Review of Wild Bill (1995)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 01 Dec 2015

The film ultimately comes up short when it has to deal with Hickok as something other than a legend; Hill is hampered as usual by his fixation…

Review of The Hoax (2007)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 24 Nov 2015

It's pretty perverse for William Wheeler, who scripted this feature, to get most of the facts wrong, inflating details that don't need any…

Review of The Peacemaker (1997)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 17 Nov 2015

Mimi Leder directed Michael Schiffer's script, handling some of the action sequences deftly enough to promote the latent idea that people who…

Review of Dick (1999)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 08 Nov 2015

Silly and shameless stuff that made me laugh quite a lot…

Review of Persons of Interest (2004)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 06 Nov 2015

The facts of their grim treatment, often exacerbated by their estrangement from their countries of origin, sometimes recall the internment…

Review of Pushing Tin (1999)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 26 Oct 2015

The only thing that keeps the proceedings bearable is the cast gamely rolling with all the shameless sitcom punches the script keeps throwing at them…

Review of GoldenEye (1995)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 24 Oct 2015

There's something a mite pathetic about our culture still clinging to 007, but it's hard to deny that this is one of the most entertaining…

Review of Miami Vice (2006)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 21 Oct 2015

Apart from a few sleek shots involving boats or helicopters, the action eventually devolves into a standard war-movie shootout…

Review of The Affair of the Necklace (2001)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 16 Oct 2015

Nobody seems to know quite what he's doing in this opulent but fairly empty period fashion show, apart from campy overactors like Christopher…

Review of Dreamcatcher (2003)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 16 Oct 2015

For most of the running time I was mainly confused, as well as mildly nauseated by the gross-out details of a tale that tends to be more slimy…

Review of Collateral (2004)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 03 Oct 2015

The best thing Mann brings to his picture is a strong sense of time and place…
