Review of Alfie (2004)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 18 Dec 2015

Where Caine was like an arsonist in his relationships, Law's Alfie is more like a kid playing with matches -- innocent and genuinely surprised…

Review of Sisters (2016)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 17 Dec 2015

I counted five laughs in the whole movie, and these were mild laughs, at best…

Review of Sisters (2015)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 17 Dec 2015

Review of Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 16 Dec 2015

The storytelling in The Force Awakens is masterful, in that it seems to be taking its time but is always moving relentlessly forward and coming…

Review of Ray (2004)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 13 Dec 2015

Foxx's complex performance and the filmmaker's willingness to look at the dark side place Ray safely out of the realm of typical Hollywood…

Review of Leap Year (2010)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 12 Dec 2015

Virtually every word and plot turn is insincere, manufactured, unfelt and dishonest, and its portrayal of people demonstrates either an ignorance…

Review of Carol (1990)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 10 Dec 2015

Haynes elicits two great performances and provides the perfect frame for them, not just in terms of setting, but through smart casting and…

Review of In the Heart of the Sea (2015)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 10 Dec 2015

With In the Heart of the Sea, director Ron Howard has given us a painstakingly crafted bore, a lovingly rendered snooze, and a very expensive…

Review of The Happening (2008)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 05 Dec 2015

It's an entertaining movie, which is half the game, but it's not scary, which it should be…

Review of Lucky You (2007)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 04 Dec 2015

The result is that most of the picture plays out as a series of scenes in which our hero sits there, gets angry and loses all his money…

Review of Internal Affairs (1990)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 03 Dec 2015

It has grown a little thin with age, especially Gere’s yuppie baiting speeches, but there’s a hardness here, an aversion to the dumb action…

Review of James White (2015)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 03 Dec 2015

As for the movie’s ultimate resolution, nothing specific can be said here, except that it borders on inexcusable…

Review of Macbeth (2015)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 03 Dec 2015

Kurzel and three screenwriters have figured out a way to make Macbeth boring. Now that they proved it can be done, no one need ever do it again…

Review of Australia (2008)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 30 Nov 2015

Australia shows all the signs of having been a labor of love for director Baz Luhrmann. One problem: It's his love, and the audience's labor…

Review of The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard (2009)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 30 Nov 2015

Feels forgettable, even though, in the moment, it's often very funny…

Review of Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (2006)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 29 Nov 2015
