Mess with "Gerry", and you’re messing with me. Okay, not really. But I’m very protective toward this movie. It’s been called a lot of things since it’s release a year ago: boring, pretentious, a rip-off, muddled, arty. More than any other recent film, ...

Brian De Palma’s “Body Double” is a tough sell. Its main plot is unlikely at best, and its surrounded by a framing device that makes no literal sense at all. The film is littered with fake-looking blue screen and rear projection work. It has no name stars...

"The Order" is mostly a bad movie. I kind of liked it. I'll tell you why, but first let's pay some bills.
In "The Order" Heath Ledger and Mark Addy play Father Alex Bernier and Father Thomas Garrett, two of a renegade order of Catholic priests known as Caro...

"My Dinner with Andre" is a movie about two New York intellectuals having dinner. They eat quail. They speak of the theatre, Polish forests, Japanese monks, Scottish mathematicians, and electric blankets. There are no cutaways to the stories they tell, only the...
