25 Words or Less: Call This Consumer Protection
CALL THIS CONSUMER PROTECTION
Movies are now ten bucks a pop. Time is more valuable than that. Discerning consumers, take a minute to read our reviews and maybe we can spare you the pain. Then again, everyone has their own opinion…
 |
A BEAUTIFUL MIND |
| (Ron Howard, 2001) Complex mind, simple movie. Too simple. Hollywood Howard assumes the audience has no mind of their own.

GOSFORD PARK |
| (Robert Altman, 2002) Altman wrangles a massive, talented cast for this complex manor mystery of masters and servants. Certainly no thrill ride, but lingeringly thoughtful.

HOME MOVIE |
| (Chris Smith, 2002) House = person, person = house. Documentary showcases five unique houses and weirdos within. Great fun. Makes your suburban cookie cutter look worse than ever.

IN THE BEDROOM |
| (Todd Field, 2001) Slow and compelling, and ultimately too sort of sleepy. Acting is first rate, but story spins on too long. So there.

INSOMNIA |
| (Christopher Nolan, 2002) Pacino cop - retread. Bad Mork - so what? Remake of ‘97 Swedish film (American’s can’t read subtitles - pathetic). Alaska in Canada - traitorous. Meaningless. Entertaining. Summary: mooseturd.

SPIDERMAN |
| (Sam Raimi, 2002) Another comic book on the screen. Yawn. Movie starts subtle but quickly gets long and loud, feels factory made.

STAR WARS: EPISODE II - ATTACK OF THE CLONES |
| (George Lucas, 2002) Flogging a dead banta? Maybe, but this installment is highly entertaining with Yoda letting loose. Love scenes, a real laugh.

 |
Y TU MAMA TAMBIEN |
| (Alfonso Cauron, 2001) Rich and poor revealed in this raunchy, rowdy, road movie with psychology to spare. This popular art house hit lives up to the hype.
