The Second Mother [Que Horas Ela Volta?] **** (2015, Regina Casé, Helena Albergaria, Michel Joelsas, Camila Márdila, Karine Teles, Lourenço Mutarelli) – Movie Review
Writer-director Anna Muylaert’s funny social drama is a joy throughout. There’s graffiti on a wall just down the road form the cinema where I saw The Second Mother. It says something profoundly banal and banally profound: […]
The Devil Wears Prada **** (2006, Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt, Stanley Tucci, Simon Baker, Adrian Grenier) – Classic Movie Review 2873
Anne Hathaway stars in director David Frankel’s 2006 romantic comedy drama as the smart but not smartly dressed new graduate Andy Sachs, who turns up scruffy, conceited and unprepared and unexpectedly lands a job she […]
In Cold Blood ***** (1967, Robert Blake, Scott Wilson, John Forsythe, Jeff Corey, Paul Stewart, Will Geer) – Classic Movie Review 2874
Writer-director Richard Brooks’s gruelling 1967 movie version of Truman Capote’s 1966 bestselling true-crime ‘non-fiction novel’ about the brutal, senseless murder of a family in rural Kansas is extremely gripping, authentic and realistic, but also thankfully avoids […]
Ricki and the Flash ***½ (2015, Meryl Streep, Kevin Kline, Mamie Gummer, Rick Springfield, Audra McDonald) – Movie Review
Nothing stops Meryl Streep. The three-time Oscar-winner stars as Ricki, a hard-rocking, singing guitar chick who years back gave up everything for her dream of rock-and-roll stardom, which somehow has never happened. In Oscar-winning screenwriter Diablo […]
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl ***½ (2015, Thomas Mann, R J Cyler, Olivia Cooke, Connie Britton, Nick Offerman, Molly Shannon, Jon Bernthal) – Movie Review
Thomas Mann stars as eccentric but essentially nice 17-year-old Pittsburgh high schooler Greg, who makes parodies of classic movies with his buddy Earl (R J Cyler) but otherwise has no friends. ‘We make films,’ says Greg. […]
American Ultra ** (2015, Jesse Eisenberg, Kristen Stewart, Connie Britton, Topher Grace, John Leguizamo, Bill Pullman, Walton Goggins, Tony Hale) – Movie Review
Jesse Eisenberg stars as small-town stoner Mike Howell, who works in a mini-mart and is writing a graphic novel about a superhero monkey (Apollo Ape) but doesn’t know he was trained by the CIA to be a lethal […]
Gemma Bovery *** (2014, Fabrice Luchini, Gemma Arterton, Jason Flemyng, Niels Schneider, Isabelle Candelier) – Movie Review
Gallic charmer Fabrice Luchini exactly hits the spot as Martin Joubert, a well-heeled ex-Parisian over-passionate about the writer Gustave Flaubert, who has settled into a French Norman village as a baker. She is married to […]
