Review of The House of the Devil (2009)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 20 Sep 2014

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 20 Sep 2014

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 19 Sep 2014

Review of Stomp the Yard (2007)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 05 Sep 2014

The shallow frat-on-frat rivalry and the poor-boy-loves-rich-girl subplot don't mean a thing. But the stepping does got that swing…

Review of Letters to Juliet (2010)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 26 Aug 2014

Redgrave shimmers like one of Tuscany's magnificent cypress trees as an Englishwoman searching for Lorenzo (Nero)…

Review of Lady Vengeance (2005)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 13 Aug 2014

Review of Love in the Time of Money (2002)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 12 Aug 2014

The characters who cross paths here in the hard shadows of late-'90s New York City are meant to convey loneliness, bitterness, neediness, loss,…

Review of Talk to Her (2002)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 19 Jul 2014

Like everything else in this superb work of art, ''Shrinking Lover'' is exquisitely Almodóvarian…

Review of EverAfter (1998)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 15 Jul 2014

Between bouts of decisive action, the characters mill around the French countryside (in lovely costumes, to be sure, by Jenny Beavan) as if…

Review of Leaves of Grass (2009)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 12 Jul 2014

The movie bubbles with intellectual curiosity and narrative ambition…

Review of Julia (2009)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 05 Jul 2014

This overlong, lurchy homage to John Cassavetes' 1980 film Gloria is a mess, but a fascinating one, given Swinton's desperately avid performance…

Review of Cinderella Man (2005)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 05 Jul 2014

How exceptional a film actor is Russell Crowe…

Review of An Unfinished Life (2005)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 24 Jun 2014

An Unfinished Life is inert, kaput -- a middlebrow mush of platitudes rather than an okay corral of distinct characters with heartbeats…

Review of The Jungle Book (1994)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 21 Jun 2014

The animals are dignified cuties and the humans are boisterous archetypes, and if you want the heart to have more darkness, you’re barking…

Love means never having to say you're recycling plot material…

Review of Titus (1999)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 03 Jun 2014
