(04/09/08) Product Description Take a hilarious ride with the Hoovers, one of the most endearingly fractured families in comedy history. Father Richard (Greg Kinnear) is desperately trying to sell his motivational success program...with no success. Meanwhile, "pro-honesty" mom Sheryl (Toni Collette) lends support to her eccentric family, including her depressed brother (Steve Carell), fresh out of the hospital after being jilted by his lover. Then there are the younger Hoovers?the seven-year-old, would-be beauty queen Olive (Abigail Breslin) and Dwayne (Paul Dano), a Nietzsche-reading teen who has taken a vow of silence. Topping off the family is the foul-mouthed grandfather (Alan Arkin), whose outrageous behavior recently got him evicted from his retirement home. When Olive is invited to compete in the "Little Miss Sunshine" pageant in far-off California, the family piles into their rusted-out VW bus to rally behind her?with riotously funny results.

(04/09/08) WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 2003--It would be easy to dismiss "Thirteen" as an exploitative exercise in shock, but to do so would deny the film its hard-edged realism, phenomenal acting and powerfully unsentimental story, which culminates in one of the most emotionally raw and unforgettable endings I have ever seen. Spinning the scary tale of a perfectly normal thirteen-year-old girl, Tracy, who, with the aide of a more "experienced" rebel named Evie, slips and falls into a hellish downward spiral of every parent's worst nightmare, "Thirteen" is a stunning work, but can be difficult to stomach at times. For instance, it opens with the two girls huffing aerosol cans and, so awestruck by the numbness in their faces, they start slapping each other for kicks. This is probably one of the less shocking scenes of rebellion, as later they delve into real drugs, take up beer drinking and experiment with their fragile sexuality. Nothing, however, is as hard to take as the scenes where Tracy finds some...See less

(04/09/08) Stephen Sondheim's award-winning musical thriller comes to the big screen in this adaptation directed by Tim Burton and starring Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Sacha Baron Cohen, Timothy Spall, and Alan Rickman. Embittered at having been wrongly imprisoned and determined to seek vengeance against his accusers due to the grim fate that befell his wife and daughter while he was incarcerated, ex-convict Sweeny Todd (Depp) returns to his hometown and opens a modest barber shop. The one thing different about Todd's shop, however, is that no one who walks in for a trim is ever seen again. Subsequently branded "The Demon Barber of Fleet Street" by the frightened community, Todd continues with his murderous exploits with a little assistance from his amorous accomplice Mrs. Lovett (Bonham Carter) -- whose popular meat pies are proven to have a most unsavory ingredient.

(04/09/08) When a teenage girl is faced with an unexpected pregnancy, she enlists the aid of her best friend in finding the unborn child a suitable home in this coming-of-age comedy drama from Thank You for Smoking director Jason Reitman. Juno (Ellen Page) may seem wise beyond her years, but after sleeping with classmate Bleeker (Michael Cera), the pregnant teen quickly realizes how little she really knows about life. Thankfully, Juno has been blessed with parents (J.K. Simmons and Allison Janney) who trust their daughter's judgment, and a best friend named Leah (Olivia Thirlby), who's always willing to help out in a pinch. With a little help from Leah, Juno soon comes into contact with Mark (Jason Bateman) and Vanessa (Jennifer Garner) -- an affluent suburban couple who have been unable to conceive a child of their own. Mark and Vanessa seem like they would make great parents, and are eager to adopt Juno's unborn child. Now, as adolescent Juno is faced with a series of very adult decisions, she...See less

(04/09/08) Because of critics' reaction to Alice in Wonderland in 1951, it is written, Walt Disney actually apologized for the movie and soon after his television show became a hit a few years later, he showed it in its entirety on TV, thus relegating it to his "minor film" category. The movie has never been able to shake this image, and that is a shame. We should remember that "Wizard of Oz" wasn't a giant box office hit in 1939, and only after it was made an annual event on television did it become a classic in the eyes of the public. "Alice in Wonderland" deserves far more attention than it has ever received. The characters are wonderful. The music is humable, even singable. It's a short film that takes the viewer into a dreamland, and Disney's animated version stands up against any of the other live versions that have popped up over the years. It's time to give this movie the credit it deserves as a classic in animation. Watch it from a child's point of view, with the amazing images of a cat...See less

See more

(04/09/08) "Superbad" follows the pre-College separation and sexual anxieties of best friends Seth (Jonah Hill) and Evan (Michael Cera) over the course of twenty-four liquor and testosterone-filled hours. "Superbad", first off, is an excellent movie - it's literate, likeable and there's plenty going on. Comparisons with "American Pie" are inevitable - same subject matter and so forth - but "Superbad" is a lot more demanding, and a lot more rewarding because of that. Cera, Hill and Mintz-Plasse (Fogell) give outstanding performances, particularly the former pair - there's a believable and honest chemistry between these two actors and their friendship is completely plausible. Cera's the stronger of the two actors - his Evan's a believable and sympathetic kid - but Hill is equally strong during their shared scenes. While Fogell might have been included simply for laughs, Mintz-Plasse does an excellent job with what he's given, and his scenes of slapstick and comic sexual redemption are excellent...See less
