Review of Oz the Great and Powerful (2013)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 07 Mar 2013

Raimi's prequel is a beautiful diversion, a colorful and clever homage to perhaps the most loved film of all time…

Review of Jack the Giant Slayer (2013)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 28 Feb 2013

If not for its PG-13 rating, 'Jack the Giant Slayer' would be an old-fashioned, family oriented fantasy adventure, the type that local television…

Review of Identity Thief (2013)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 13 Feb 2013

After setting up the professional and emotional devastation Jason Bateman's character suffers when his identity is stolen, the movie does its…

Review of Broken City (2013)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 25 Jan 2013

Despite its talent, 'Broken City' is an unremarkable film. Soon enough, most everyone will forget about it. It's not 'Chinatown…

Review of Zero Dark Thirty (2012)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 12 Jan 2013

Review of This Is 40 (2012)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 04 Jan 2013

This Is 40' has moments where vulgarity doesn't impede honesty and Apatow's desire to show off his children doesn't overshadow his depiction…

Review of Killing Them Softly (2012)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 07 Dec 2012

Another one of those films that makes you wish Quentin Tarantino had taken up hotel and restaurant management…

Review of Playing for Keeps (2012)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 07 Dec 2012

At least 'Playing for Keeps' does a service for the late Rodney Dangerfield. His 'Ladybugs' is no longer the worst movie about a youth soccer coach…

Review of Life of Pi (2012)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 20 Nov 2012

Ang Lee, in his best work since Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, makes 3-D integral to the storytelling in this miracle of a film…

Review of Skyfall (2012)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 09 Nov 2012

Released on the 50th anniversary of the James Bond films, Skyfall is simultaneously one of the series' most rousing entries and one of its…

Review of Argo (2012)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 02 Nov 2012

While I'm not buying into the early Oscar hype for 'Argo,' it is a gripping and exciting story that is mostly true and mostly authentic…

Review of The Words (2009)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 02 Nov 2012

Nothing, absolutely nothing, makes 'The Words' interesting…

Review of Hit & Run (2012)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 02 Nov 2012

It's 'Smokey and the Bandit' as conceived by a Quentin Tarantino wannabe…

Review of The Words (2012)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 02 Nov 2012

Nothing, absolutely nothing, makes 'The Words' interesting…

Review of Frankenweenie (2012)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 02 Nov 2012

Frankenweenie' is far from his best, but it is a timely reassurance that the old Tim Burton still exists and may be able to work his black…

Review of Trouble with the Curve (2012)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 02 Nov 2012

Everyone grins as if 'Trouble With the Curve' has hit a triumphant home run, but in reality it reaches the plate after a series of errors…

Review of Alex Cross (2012)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 02 Nov 2012

So many other things are wrong with the wretched 'Alex Cross' that Perry's somnambulistic performance doesn't even crack the top five…

Review of Inception (2010)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 14 Jul 2010

Inception is the rare blockbuster entry as sophisticated and intelligent as it is exciting and spectacular…

Review of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (2010)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 30 Jun 2010

Not as deathly dull as Twilight or as screamingly dull as New Moon, Eclipse is merely dull…
