Review of Friends with Kids (2012)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 07 Mar 2012

The observations about parenthood, pro and con, are quick and smart, and Scott effortlessly steals the show, softening Westfeldt's brittle cuteness…

Review of Boy (2010)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 07 Mar 2012

An appalling, jaw-dropping movie that will cause serious nightmares…

Review of Boy (2014)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 07 Mar 2012

Boy could have been a twee mush of cuteness and bathos but it's not, in large part because of the outstanding cast of unself-conscious Maori kids…

Review of Boy (2011)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 07 Mar 2012

Boy could have been a twee mush of cuteness and bathos but it's not, in large part because of the outstanding cast of unself-conscious Maori kids…

Review of Boy (2012)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 07 Mar 2012

Boy could have been a twee mush of cuteness and bathos but it's not, in large part because of the outstanding cast of unself-conscious Maori kids…

Review of Dawn of the Dead (2004)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 06 Mar 2012

Don't leave before the final frame -- if you're still breathing…

Review of Real Women Have Curves (2002)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 06 Mar 2012

It's refreshingly low on the kind of Cinema of Empowerment pedantry that often goes along with stories about ethnic families, sweatshop working…

Review of Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 06 Mar 2012

A cheap cut-glass tiara of a booby prize goes to Drop Dead Gorgeous for messing up so utterly…

Review of Black Book (2006)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 05 Mar 2012

Black Book may be the looniest use of the Holocaust as a playground since Roberto Benigni served up his infernal clown act in Life Is Beautiful…

Review of The Kingdom (2007)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 03 Mar 2012

So shameless is The Kingdom, ignoring consequence and treating its audience like cash-dispensing machines with buttons to be pushed rather…

Review of First Daughter (2004)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 03 Mar 2012

The role of a poised daddy's girl is a dull one for Holmes, who looks pained, in a nonspecific way, throughout her capers; the movie itself,…

Review of Killers (2010)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 02 Mar 2012

The steady drip-drip-drip of nothings like this are killing us all…

Review of Wanderlust (2012)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 22 Feb 2012

I don't know what tools of the trade Paul Rudd and director David Wain share to dream up the kind of inspired nutso stuff Rudd has done in…

Review of This Is Not a Film (2011)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 22 Feb 2012

This is a great film, and a triumph of creativity and courage over repression…

Review of The Forgiveness of Blood (2011)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 22 Feb 2012

This gripping if tamped-down drama is steeped in ancient Albanian culture, where the real, tragic consequences of blood feuds can keep families…

Review of Lars and the Real Girl (2007)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 21 Feb 2012

Really, I think we put up with Lars at all only because Gosling has such an affinity for the wounded boy birds he tends to play that it's easy…

Review of Deliver Us from Eva (2003)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 19 Feb 2012

Union, who looks so chic and can talk so bitchy-funny, doesn't so much establish a character as roll out a series of attitudes…

Review of Chasing Liberty (2004)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 18 Feb 2012

At least some Goode may come from Chasing Liberty: I hope we'll be seeing more of the handsome and unboyish young man with big star potential…

Review of Martha Marcy May Marlene (2011)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 18 Feb 2012

Martha Marcy May Marlene leaves a viewer hanging, quite literally, lost in an enveloping fog of mood without resolution…

Review of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 17 Feb 2012

A curious case indeed: an extravagantly ambitious movie that's easy to admire but a challenge to love…
