A very dark comedy of errors, accidental intrigue and misplaced paranoia, the new Coen brothers film offers cerebral, slightly disturbing entertainment that moves along at rapid-fire pace. The amazing, distinguished ensemble cast adds nuance to an already clever and biting script. John Malkovich, Tilda Swinton, Frances McDormand, George Clooney and Brad Pitt play characters ranging [...]

Paul W.S. Anderson‘s remake of the 1975 David Carradine/ Sylvester Stallone cult classic Death Race 2000 is a wonderfully cheesy, loud and violent bone-cruncher of a good time that that will please everybody and anybody who likes their action flicks fast and unashamedly mindless. Transporter star Jason Statham plays the hero here, a naturally nice [...]

The third entry in the hugely successful Mummy franchise is as over-edited, clumsily directed and preposterous as its predecessors. And yet I found it slightly more than merely entertaining, thanks to returning star Brendan Fraser and some impressive visual effects. Fraser reprises his big-paycheck role as Rick O’Connell, faux-Indiana Jones adventurer and two-time mummy vanquisher, [...]

Set on an island in Greece, Mamma Mia! is the story of a young woman, played by Amanda Seyfried, who, desperate for her father to walk her down the aisle, invites the three most likely suitors of her mother’s past, Pierce Brosnan, Stellan Skarsgard, and Colin Firth, to her wedding.
