Review:
Comedian-actor Dane Cook still hasn't managed to make me laugh out loud in a movie theater.

In "My Best Friend's Girl," though, he does something probably more important. He makes me really care about his character.

Tank (Cook) appears to be a lout to the ninth degree. He's the anti-Cupid, an emotional terrorizer of women.

When a guy gets dumped, he pays Tank to ask the girl out, gross her out verbally and physically and generally send her running back to the original boyfriend, who doesn't seem so bad anymore.

Tank meets his match with Alexis, portrayed by romantic-comedy vet Kate Hudson. My thought going in was that if Cook couldn't translate his stand-up comic success to the big screen opposite Hudson, he might never truly be a romantic-comedy movie star.

The laugh is on me, as it turns out. First-time screenwriter Jordan Cahan and veteran director Howard Deutch finally give Cook some material that's right in his sensibility wheelhouse.

Tank has the roughest edge you can imagine. He doesn't merely send women reeling in horror, he makes the mistake of falling for his best friend's girl.

Jason Biggs ("Over Her Dead Body"), is resigned now, it seems, to this kind of supportive, third-lead role. He's Dustin, Tank's friend and distant cousin who's way too eager to make Alexis his significant other the decent, good-guy way.

It should be made clear that "My Best Friend's Girl" is not light-hearted romantic comedy. Deutch ("The Whole Ten Yards") allows the script and his actors to drag the comedy below bottom-feeder, lowbrow status.

When Cook's character takes a turn the audience might not expect, though, the caustic ice begins to thaw. We realize there might be hope for at least one of the drips after all.

Add that to a quality performance by Cook ("Good Luck Chuck") and there are some things to like about this raunchy comedy with heart.

Hudson – durable as ever – is another. And Alec Baldwin, who's only in this thing for two or three scenes you may not soon forget, is another.

"My Best Friend's Girl" doesn't exactly make the smoothest exit before the end credits roll. Up until that point, though, this is a verbally poisonous comedy that rattles the sensibility cage.

Review:
"Igor" is about a misunderstood hunchback and an aspiring actress, and it's easy to see why it got made in the first place: Most of the men who run Hollywood envision their world in roughly the same terms.

Screenwriter Chris McKenna - whose chief credit is the Fox series "American Dad!" - brings a classic supporting horror-movie player center stage, the way the "Shrek" movies subverted and showcased the ogre archetype. In the Kingdom of Malaria, Igors are sent to Igor School for a "Yes Masters' Degree" (I like that bit), destined for a servile, lisping, foot-dragging existence in the employ of the country's many evil scientists.

The Igor "Igor" concerns itself with is voiced by John Cusack. His venal boss, Dr. Glickenstein (John Cleese), expires while tinkering with his invention for the annual Evil Science Fair, leaving Igor to freely experiment with his own creation: a destructive force of mayhem, female division, voiced by Molly Shannon. She recalls Elsa Lancaster in "The Bride of Frankenstein," without the electro-fro.

The gag here is that "Eva" isn't evil in the least. Subjected to a "Clockwork Orange"-style brainwashing process, she is mistakenly shown a James Lipton "Inside the Actors Studio" program and comes out thinking she's an actress herself, obsessed with scene study and updating her "sense-memory journal." If this sounds rather arch, well, a lot of "Igor" certainly is that. You'll surely never see, or hear, a more menacing rendition of the "Annie" anthem "Tomorrow" than the one sung by the newly evil-ized Eva as she batters the competition at the climactic Evil Science Fair.


I don't like that scene much: It's just off-putting. More fun for me, as well as for my preteen son John and his pal Liam, is the running gag with Igor's associate, the suicidal rabbit Scamper. With an uneven and overstuffed script you appreciate the corner-of-the-mouth comments as delivered by Steve Buscemi. The boys' favorite bit was one of the simplest: "May I suggest that you look behind you!?!" Scamper thunders, after Eva's gone missing. Igor looks. Nothing there. "It was just a suggestion," he says. The visual universe of "Igor" is pretty grim, full of rusty maroon tones and belching smoke and pop decadence. Director Tony Leondis and his chief art director, Olivier Besson, are trying to show us there's more than one way to evoke moods and textures made famous by Tim Burton. Even with various script doctors, "Igor" isn't particularly funny, and having all those Louis Prima tunes on the soundtrack seems completely at odds with composer Patrick Doyle's moody, sardonic orchestral commentary. But my kid went with it, and I had a fairly good time with it, as I waited patiently for the reappearance of a marble-mouthed peasant tart, Mittel-European division, voiced by Jennifer Coolidge. Half the time her line readings are hilarious, and it's impossible to know, in any rational sense, why. That's my kind of voice artist.

Review:

Cutting to the chase: If you like the Coen Brothers previous works of No Country for Old Men,O Brother Where Art Thou? than you will find this to be a along the same lines. If you don’t it may make you laugh as it did me. But it also will surprise you as it is not at all what the trailers have shown it to be. or even

The story revolves around a disk containing the memoirs of a CIA agent that ends up in the hands of two everyday gym employees who attempt to sell it. One would think this could have some very funny twists and turns but the humor in this one was very dry and almost awkward at times.

The Coen’s have brought complex characters to the screen in the least warming way possible. If it weren’t for Brad Pitt’s crazy chararcter the film would be very drab and lacking in many places. The way in which the chararcters are introduced was very abrupt and not well thought out.

Brad Pitt plays Chad, a gym trainer at a Har Bodies chain. The way in which he goes throughout the movie is something to watch. He made the movie if you ask me.

Harry (George Clooney), an OCD womanizer, is a character you begin to route for towards the end of the film. Even though it seems he sleeps with anyone he can get his hands on, he grows on you. Creator of story after story, and lie after lie, you begin to like this guy.

Osborne Cox, played by the ever talented John Malkovich, has to be the most screwed up chararcter on screen, and in this movie that is saying a lot! Cox recently quit his post at the CIA after his boss wanted to reassign him due to having a drinking problem.

While the film had its funny parts, I must of missed the point of the film throughout. Pitt was the savior of the movie in my eyes. While each actor put in a great performance, the film was subpar as a comedy and on par as a dramedy. With that said I would also watch out for the very random violent parts of the film. In Coen style, the blood, is over the top everytime its called for.

The soundtrack on this movie was great if you ask me. It is not something that is something that I notice in a film. Over all I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys Coen Brothers films. Beside that I would probably call this a rental.

Review:

In a shocking change of pace for Tyler Perry, "The Family That Preys" is, get this, a southern-fried melodrama, frosted with overbearing performances, low-budget production polish, and obscene displays of artistic and moral ineptness. It's nice see that Perry, in his fifth directorial effort, has decided to test himself with deeply challenging material, rising above his past transgressions, at last offering the screen a tightly wound story that speaks universal truths about the state of the human condition.

All kidding aside: "Preys" stinks.

Lifelong friends, Alice Pratt (Alfre Woodard) and Charlotte Cartwright (Kathy Bates) have enjoyed watching their children grow and their businesses flourish. When Charlotte's shifty son William (Cole Hauser) begins an extramarital affair with Alice's daughter Andrea (Sanaa Lathan), the secret is impossible to cover, tearing up both families as the lies and manipulation start to pile up. With Charlotte and Alice trying to keep some sense of order, Andrea's clueless husband, Chris (Rockmond Dunbar), still hopes to solicit seed money for his construction business dreams from William, leaving Andrea's sister Pam (Taraji P. Henson) and her husband Ben (Tyler Perry) at a loss for words, observing the madness from the comfort of their stable marriage.

Unlike the rest of the Tyler Perry catalog, "Preys" is engineered to win over a large, crossover audience for the Georgian mogul. Not that the film doesn't have huge, wet Perry stamps all over it, but there's a new angle to "Preys" that Perry hasn't sampled before: the Caucasian experience.

Previous Perry pictures traditionally looked upon white people as comedic foils who were quick with a racist remark or nugget of high-society disgust. "Preys" gives us Charlotte, who doesn't approach her friendship with Alice through skin color, but through honest admiration and companionship. It's a superb change of pace for Perry, who resists nearly any opportunity to inject racial animosity into the picture. However, it's the last moment of invention the film will enjoy.

"Preys" is a soap opera in the most unashamed sense, and while this aesthetic has made Perry heaps of coin, his personal screen touch remains some of the worst overall filmmaking around. The new feature is perhaps even more melodramatic than anything that's come before, taking the Andrea/William affair and using it as the inspiration for the cast to arch their eyebrows to assured cramp, flare nostrils in unintentional comedic fury, and bounce impassioned lines of dialogue off each other with medicine ball grace. It's equal parts hilarious and aggravating, with Perry showing little shame as he works the characters into pants-wetting hysteria.

For "Preys," the action is actually split into two parts: the sticky infidelity web and Alice and Charlotte's you-go-girl road trip, where the two ladies take off in a vintage car and tour the southwest ("like Oprah and Gayle!"). The travelogue is Perry's weakest idea, taking the ladies on a booze-laden tour of bars and natural wonders, with the merriment jumping from male strip clubs all the way to blunt professions of early-onset Alzheimer's. Yes, I just wrote that. It wouldn't be Perry if the story didn't contain shameless, whiplash-inducing turns of pity that emerge from out of nowhere, leaving the audience in a complete lurch with little dramatic foundation to fall back on. Plus the road trip segment introduces what I would consider a true torture device: Kathy Bates in overact mode. Gulp.

The infidelity side of the "Preys" script is given far more attention, but in all the wrong ways. Here, the performances are a wreck, with Hauser emitting the sexual appeal of a cold sore as he struts around like a mannequin, refusing to move a facial muscle (a Hauser specialty). "Preys" also has Chris to kick around, and the dim-witted character is used solely as the film's punching bag, employed here to suffer the most humiliation and to carry out another Perry commandment: the justified moment of domestic abuse.

By having Chris punch Andrea (cue audience cheer) to release his cuckold frustrations, Perry crosses the line, endorsing violence on a level he's only flirted with before. It's sickening and completely irresponsible. In a film stuffed with bibles, baptisms, and gospels, to watch the movie celebrate spousal abuse is an unthinkable step even for Perry, who is more than willing to profit from his bottom-feeding template of pandering no matter how much it could influence his target demographic.

With enough double-crosses and tragic ends to make "Days of Our Lives" wince, "The Family That Preys" clearly demonstrates that even when Perry desires to climb out of his own genre, he lacks the skills and the patience to truly test himself. Instead, it's the same old dance, only now it involves slapping around women.

Robert De Niro ... Turk

Al Pacino ... Rooster

50 Cent ... Spider (as Curtis Jackson)

Donnie Wahlberg ... Det. Ted Riley

Brian Dennehy ... Lieutenant Hingis

Review:

I think it's fair to say that Al Pacino and Robert De Niro don't exactly disappear into character in "Righteous Kill."

It's not that you don't buy them as hard-boiled New York cops - of course you do. I can't think of anyone who could do it better.

But every scene is also alive with an awareness that the audience is meant to enjoy this legends-collide screen partnership as much as they obviously do, and they're happy to blur the line between actor and character.

The movie, in fact, gets a big laugh when a precinct boss (Brian Dennehy) asks the two men if they plan to retire.

They answer with a happy, obscene "no," a moment that not only defines their characters, but works as a reassuring, sentimental nod to loyal fans.

Pacino and De Niro aren't going anywhere, and certainly not gently.

That said, you'll also notice that "Righteous Kill" isn't asking either actor to stretch. World-weary, rule-bending cop? I think they can handle it. And the story is hackneyed - veteran detectives on the trail of a serial killer who leaves rhyming poetry at the scene of his grisly crimes.

Aside from the novelty of two acting legends working together, "Righteous Kill" plays like a pumped-up episode of "Law and Order," with the lurid benefits of the "R" rating.

De Niro accrues most of them. He's romantically paired with the gorgeous and much younger Carla Gugino, playing a CSI detective who's aroused by violence and by her lover's Dirty Harry reputation. They retire from grisly crime scenes to have sweaty, urgent encounters - kudos to cinematographer Denis Lenoir for finding a way to photograph these scenes in such a way as to feature Gugino and obscure De Niro.

This is also played for laughs, up to a point. The older man's fatigue at meeting the needs of a younger woman are fodder for crude jokes.

Gradually, though, the movie gets darker and asks to be taken more seriously (the CSI gal's taste for rough sex leads to a truly awful scene), and here's where it runs into problems.

"Righteous Kill" tries to build suspense around the idea that one of the detectives emerges as a suspect in the killings - director Jon Avnet even uses an apparent confession as a framing device, tipping us in the early moments to the culprit's supposed identity (a flashy device that's overused and disrupts the flow of the movie).

If we assume this is a misdirection, it's not very difficult to determine where the movie is really going, especially if you pause to chew on the movie's labored chess metaphors.

Why, you wonder, would titans like De Niro and Pacino opt to participate in such a pulpy, throwaway "B" movie? For one thing, they're obviously having fun. And if you consider the ending of "Righteous Kill" in the context of their overall careers, you see there's a ghoulish symmetry to it.

When, and if, they ever retire, it's something they can laugh about.

Writers (WGA): Diane English (screenplay)Clare Boothe Luce (play)
Release Date: 12 September 2008 (USA)
Genre: Comedy | Drama
Starring: Annette Bening, Debra Messing, Eva Mendes, Jada Pinkett, Meg Ryan,

Duration
: 1 hr. 54 min


Review:
A happily married woman (Meg Ryan) learns that her husband is cheating on her and turns to her circle of friends for support. Clare Boothe Luce’s stinging 1936 comedy of bad manners, betrayal and false friendship has enraged generations of feminists with its jaundiced view of New York’s idle female rich; writer-director Diane English gives them their revenge by updating Luce’s merry catfight into an episode of Sex and the City with Ryan as Sarah Jessica Parker and Annette Bening as Kim Cattrall. Fans of the series will miss Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis, while those who remember the classic 1939 film will pine for Rosalind Russell, Joan Crawford—and Luce. English follows Luce’s first act fairly well, but when she starts making her sisterhood-is-powerful changes, the movie runs into serious trouble.
