Review of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 19 Nov 2010

Readers expecting everything plus the kitchen sink - or, in this case, seven magical Horcruxes - should not be disappointed…

Review of Skyline (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 14 Nov 2010

If 'Skyline' never seems interested in pushing the envelope, it at least begins with enough promise to suggest a competent thriller. No such luck…

Review of American: The Bill Hicks Story (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 25 Oct 2010

It is more a celebration than a lament, and the emotions it evokes are as potent as the force behind Hicks' most inspired comedy…

Review of Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 30 Sep 2010

In hindsight, Stone should have left Gekko behind bars, a casualty of his own hubris and shark-like appetites, but here he is, back on the…

Review of The Social Network (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 29 Sep 2010

In some ways Fincher, who has portrayed serial killers both fictional ('Seven') and real ('Zodiac'), has never presented a character as remorselessly…

Review of The Town (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 15 Sep 2010

The Town' holds its own with crisp, ferocious dialogue and a disquieting aura of danger, most palpable when Jeremy Renner is on screen…

Review of Machete (1958)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 01 Sep 2010

Rodriguez emphasizes style over substance, but the sheer audacity of his vision - the energy, the inventiveness, the extremes to which he's…

Review of Machete (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 01 Sep 2010

Rodriguez emphasizes style over substance, but the sheer audacity of his vision - the energy, the inventiveness, the extremes to which he's…

Review of The Last Exorcism (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 25 Aug 2010

Fabian never makes a false move. Neither does Stamm, who understands that what's left off-screen is often more terrifying than what's on it…

Review of Piranha 3D (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 23 Aug 2010

The violence is gory, gratuitous and convincingly staged, a credit to effects duo Howard Berger and Greg Nicotero, whose carnage looks impressively…

Review of The Oxford Murders (2008)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 12 Aug 2010

Hurt sells the silliness almost convincingly, but even from such a skillful pitchman it comes out sounding, finally, like junk…

Review of Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 11 Aug 2010

It is a movie fueled by the lunatic inspiration of the very best games and cartoons, awash with stylistic flourishes and exhilarating, animé-inspired…

Review of Get Low (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 05 Aug 2010

The moment of revelation might have seemed hokey, but Duvall doesn't allow it…

Review of The Other Guys (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 04 Aug 2010

Do the jokes pay off? Mostly, yes, despite the movie's occasional sluggishness…

Review of Repo Men (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 02 Aug 2010

If only Sapochnik and Garcia had stuck more to their ideas than their guns, they'd really have something…

Review of Dinner for Schmucks (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 28 Jul 2010

The fault isn't Carell's…

Review of Inception (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 14 Jul 2010

Inspired at times by movie classics, modern and otherwise - 'Dark City' and 'Minority Report,' but also 'Metropolis,' 'Citizen Kane' and the…

Review of The Karate Kid (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 12 Jun 2010

Does the new version surpass its predecessor in any way? No…

Review of Clash of the Titans (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 22 May 2010

It has no aspirations to be anything more than the popcorn movie it is, and for those amiably disposed to the genre, that should be enough…

Review of Robin Hood (2010)

By Rossiter Drake (177) for San Francisco Examiner (1,621) on 13 May 2010

Like his weapons of choice, Robin Hood needs to soar; Scott has anchored him in a needlessly self-important tale that only rarely achieves…
