Review: Pelham 123 Is As Generic as A-B-C

June 13th, 2009

“A pretty ordinary action movie …” People who have seen both the 1974 version of The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, a workmanlike thriller with Walter Matthau and Robert Shaw, and the numeralized remake, The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3, a generic thriller with Denzel Washington and John Travolta, will probably wonder why [...]

Review: The Hangover Leaves You Feeling Refreshed

June 13th, 2009

Ed Helms as Stu, Zach Galifianakis as Alan and Bradley Cooper as Phil in “A solid adult comedy in a world that desperately needs a few laughs for grown-ups.” The Hangover is a worthy entrant into the “guy movie” hall of fame.

Review: Terminator Salvation Can’t Be Salvaged

June 13th, 2009

Christian Bale in Warner Bros. Pictures“The biggest problem with Terminator Salvation is the fact that nothing happens.” It brings me very little joy to report that this version of the popular Terminator franchise is silly, obtuse, and pointless.
