Review of Concert for George (2003)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 05 Aug 2007

The jamboree is beautifully shot and directed, by Chris Menges and David Leland respectively, and there is a haunting touch: the presence of…

Review of No End in Sight (2007)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 01 Aug 2007

Perhaps the most cogent and straightforward dissection of the Bush Administration missteps leading up to the current Iraq nightmare…

Review of Becoming Jane (2007)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 01 Aug 2007

Becoming Jane has its felicities...McAvoy and Hathaway work well together despite being saddled with dialogue that is not remotely in Austen's…

Review of No Reservations (2007)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 25 Jul 2007

See it after you've eaten dinner. And don't see if you've recently been to Ratatouille…

Review of An Inconvenient Truth (2006)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 21 Jul 2007

It seems to me that too often in this country, and especially now, science has become politicized to the detriment of those who could be helped…

Review of Sunshine (1973)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 18 Jul 2007

Too much of Sunshine is like a cross between a middling Alien movie and Solaris (the woozy Steven Soderbergh version)…

Review of Sunshine (1999)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 18 Jul 2007

Danny Boyle gets some tension going, and, as the crew members are eliminated one by one, a cosmic despair sets in…

Review of Sunshine (2007)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 18 Jul 2007

Too much of Sunshine is like a cross between a middling Alien movie and Solaris (the woozy Steven Soderbergh version)…

Review of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 17 Jul 2007

This time around, Harry Potter has more to worry about than the Dark Arts -- though parts of The Chamber of Secrets are spellbinding, he seems…

Review of Talk to Me (1996)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 11 Jul 2007

Whatever brought Greene down was far more complex than this film allows for…

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 11 Jul 2007

Review of Buena Vista Social Club (1999)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 08 Jul 2007

I've never seen another movie that so clearly expresses the sensual sustenance that great folk culture provides its practitioners…

Review of Joshua (2002)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 04 Jul 2007

One of the better entries in the creepy-kid genre, Joshua is a bit like The Omen without the supernaturalism…

Review of Rescue Dawn (2007)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 04 Jul 2007

Although nothing beats seeing and hearing the real story, Herzog has done a fairly compelling job of blending staged action with docudrama…

Review of Joshua (2006)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 04 Jul 2007

First-time director and co-writer George Ratliff skirts, but never quite crosses, the line into absurdity…

Review of Single White Female (1992)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Los Angeles Times (12,977) on 03 Jul 2007

Schroeder is too fine-tuned a director for this roomie-from-hell claptrap, and his attempts to work in references to Polanski's films or to…

Review of Sicko (2007)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 27 Jun 2007

Barring a middle-class revolt, it's extremely unlikely that, whatever its virtues, universal healthcare could ever take hold in America…

Review of Evening (2007)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 27 Jun 2007

The performances, especially by Hugh Dancy as a sexually confused rich kid, are overwrought, and the script, which Michael Cunningham (The…
