Review of Stevie (2003)

By Tara A (177) on 05 Dec 2010

Preposterously long, given the subject. And the endless parade of human misery is really exhausting…

Review of Making Love (1982)

By Tara A (177) on 14 Nov 2010

I'm sure it was extremely daring and important in its day, but it's so Lifetime Movie Network now. Not necessarily in a bad way…

Review of The Vicious Kind (2009)

By Tara A (177) on 27 Oct 2010

A little indie-by-the-numbers, but Adam Scott is convincing as a fucked-up guy, and the story proceeds with a kind of terrible inevitability…

Review of The Invisible Circus (2001)

By Tara A (177) on 26 Oct 2010

This movie was interesting and a drama in the truest sense of the word. Performances by the cast were crisp and tender…

Review of Sneakers (1992)

By Tara A (177) on 23 Oct 2010

I guess I can see why people like it, as a proto-Soderbergh's Ocean's 11. But nearly twenty years on, it's alternately quaint and dull…

Review of Black Dynamite (2009)

By Tara A (177) on 13 Oct 2010

A hilarious and (though you may not see it at first) clever film that preys upon enough black stereotypes to make every single scene a joke…

Review of World's Greatest Dad (2009)

By Tara A (177) on 03 Oct 2010

Well-acted, I guess, but so self-consciously shocking that it can only be a turnoff for the viewer…

Review of The Boys Are Back (2009)

By Tara A (177) on 01 Oct 2010

Seeing Clive Owen cry is not quite as heartbreaking as seeing Don Draper cry, but it's close…

Review of Life as a House (2001)

By Tara A (177) on 30 Sep 2010

Wonderful movie :> I love the house. It's stands on rock, facing the sea, by the cliff -- just the best place to jump off. It's beautiful…

Review of Love Happens (1999)

By Tara A (177) on 30 Sep 2010

Has some slow moments that I fastforwarded through, but overall a very cute movie…

Review of Evolution (2001)

By Tara A (177) on 14 Sep 2010

I think we've established that ca-caw ca-caw and tooky tooky don't work…

Review of Four Christmases (2008)

By Tara A (177) on 05 Sep 2010

Vince Vaughn has some funny moments (as always), but what promised to be the story of a lovely young couple who very sensibly don't want kids…

Review of Creation (2009)

By Tara A (177) on 03 Sep 2010

Dave put it best: You tricked me into watching a movie about a kid dying…

Review of Lords of Dogtown (2005)

By Tara A (177) on 28 Aug 2010

I didn't realize everyone in the world was in this thing (plus my mortal enemy Emile Hirsch)…

Review of Cropsey (2010)

By Tara A (177) on 18 Aug 2010

Oooooh this shit gets creepy, y'all! Like a Blair Witch Project that is actually true…

Review of The Private Lives of Pippa Lee (2009)

By Tara A (177) on 14 Aug 2010

Star cast performs well, but the story doesn't take off and just isn't very interesting…

Review of What Just Happened (2008)

By Tara A (177) on 21 Jul 2010

Overall, a decent movie but what makes this movie for me is seeing De Niro in role you don't see to often from him…

Review of Solaris (2002)

By Tara A (177) on 11 Jul 2010

I guess everyone was mad at this because it wasn't Ocean's 11, but I kind of liked how ambiguous and creepy it was. Also, George Clooney's ass…
