“True Grit” is a film that you’ll want to share with your children generations from now to show them how they used to make movies way back when. Read story Much like last year’s “Avatar,” “Tron” comes as a visual effects-laden gamble whose end goal isn’t so much to provide a story as it is to provide an experience and access to a new world. Read story While the genre of romantic comedies isn’t high art once in a while you’ll get something really worthwhile. “Love and Other Drugs” isn’t that movie. Read story Harry, Ron and Hermione may be older, but the adventures are really the same in the first installment of J.K. Rowling’s “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.” Read story “127 Hours” is not just a story about Man vs. Nature. It’s a story of Man vs. Self. Read story Edgar Wright, director of “Shaun of the Dead,” “Hot Fuzz,” and most recently “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World,” recently spoke on a conference call to a group of students about the challenges of adapting the comic book properly for film, the process of orchestrating music for the film and the effect that “Scott Pilgrim” has had on legions of fanboys just a few months after its release. Read story “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World” on the big screen was good, but the Blu-Ray/DVD set a new standard by which all future films in your collection should be judged. Read story “Unstoppable” is as much a product of impeccable action film making as it is a tribute to the recession-era American working class. Read story “Morning Glory” is one of the more meaningful cinematic efforts on journalism, and with respect for the profession and a cast of characters who grow and develop, the film manages to be fun, engaging and a truly enjoyable experience all around.
