P.S. I Love You
Richard LaGravense’s P.S. I Love You has plenty of sappy love-letter moments, but it’s also a very touching and real-feeling look at the grieving process.
Strange Wilderness
A few cute gags aside, this is an exercise in stupidity aimed at those who find 15 different names for a bong to be funny.
The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones: Volume Three
Young Indiana Jones doesn’t compare to the real thing. The stories are much slower and several go nowhere. Instead the show seems to exist simply as an experiment in rewriting history a little and making it a little more fun.
There Will Be Blood
The visuals, the pacing, an all-time great performance and a timely theme add up to make There Will Be Blood one of the most memorable films I have seen.
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
Another bizarre and beautiful excursion courtesy of one of Hollywood’s most creative minds.
Enchanted
It pulls out all the stops in hitting all the familiarities of the genre and spins it on its head in both a fun and intelligent way.
Dan in Real Life
Because it touches on the universal themes of loss and love so honestly, it is a film that feels authentic even in its many contrivances.
No Country for Old Men
Thank goodness that experiment in appeasing the commercial suit types is over and the quirky brothers are back to form with No Country for Old Men, a dark and violent exploration of nature’s hunt and the relevance of time.
Bee Movie
Bee Movie is a solid mix of comforting gags, clever language and a meandering plot that doesn’t seem to have enough gas to stretch out into a full feature.
Lil’ Bush: Resident of the United States: Season One
A satirical and juvenile look at a America’s dim-witted yet strong-willed leader – literally.
