Review: The 40-Year-Old Virgin

Posted by: Dean Kish  •  August 19, 2005 @ 11:59am

Every year there seems to be a comedy that finds a new way to make us laugh in the aisles. There is always one that is funnier than the rest. Well fear not, movie-goer, that comedy has arrived.

Steve Carell stars as Andy Stitzer, a shy, reclusive guy who works in the tech-shop in the back of one of those giant electronics stores like Best Buy.

Posted by: Dean Kish  •  August 12, 2005 @ 11:59am

Please let me go! I need to leave! I just can't take it anymore.

These are probably some of the things that prisoners of war said to themselves while they endured captivity during wartime.

It's all about family, well, sort of.

Review: Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo

Posted by: Dean Kish  •  August 12, 2005 @ 11:59am

It is pretty safe to say that the Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo is probably the raunchiest movie I have ever seen.

The sequel to the 1999 smash hit finds Deuce Bigalow (Rob Schneider) down on his luck once again. After a freak marine accident, Deuce flees to Europe where he hooks up with his old pal, T.J.

Review: The Skeleton Key

Posted by: Jeremy Maron  •  August 12, 2005 @ 11:59am

One of the greatest compliments that I can pay Iain Softley's new Voodoo-esque thriller The Skeleton Key is that the breathtaking beauty of Kate Hudson is one of the least interesting things in the film. Sure, there are moments of partial nudity, as Hudson meanders around an old mansion in southern Louisiana in VERY short shorts.

Interview: Brian Herzlinger of My Date with Drew

Posted by: Mark McLeod  •  August 7, 2005 @ 12:00am

Ask just about anyone if they have a celebrity crush and the answer will be yes. If they answer in the negative, then they are either just lying to you or are in denial about something.

EIFF Review: Secuestro Express

Posted by: Scott Hayes  •  August 5, 2005 @ 11:59am

In one of the opening sequences you get an overhead view of the city of Caracas, Venezuela. Ramshackle houses litter the hillsides surrounding the city, while nicer buildings rise up in the middle. You immediately get a sense of what life in this densely populated city must be like: desperate.

Review: The Dukes of Hazzard

Posted by: Dean Kish  •  August 5, 2005 @ 11:59am

Well, it looks like every redneck's dreams have come true. The good ole boys are back.

I can't begin to understand how the Dukes of Hazzard television phenomenon was ever started or how it was created. I just remember it was huge for its day and it is amazing how long it lasted.

EIFF Review: Edgar G. Ulmer - The Man Off-Screen

Posted by: Scott Hayes  •  July 29, 2005 @ 11:59am

Knowing little about Ulmer, I ventured out on a cold Sunday afternoon for this doc about the supposed King of the B's, a man from Europe who made American movies. Featuring lots of interview subjects including Peter Bogdanovitch, Roger Corman, and Wim Wenders, just about the only person who doesn't have a part on screen is Ulmer himself. He is, after all, The Man Off-Screen.
