• From Paris With Love Starring: Review: The title dares to evoke From Russia With Love, one of the best Bond movies ever. From Paris With Love isn't among the best of anything, but it definitely corners the market on the worst. Staring John Travolta with shaved head and bad...

• Dear John Starring: Review: This shameless tearjerker is Hollywood's alternative assault on Super Bowl weekend. Translation: While guys grunt and stuff their faces in front of large-screen TVs, women will line up to luxuriate in a bubblebath made from essence of...

• Saint John of Las Vegas Starring: Steve Buscemi, Sarah Silverman, Emmanuelle Chriqui Review: Just looking at hangdog Steve Buscemi and perky Sarah Silverman as mismatched lovers is a kick. What a comedy team these two virtuosos of the comically perverse could have made if the...

• Edge of Darkness Starring: Mel Gibson, Bojana Novakovic Review: Mel gibson?s return to acting (it?s been eight years since Signs) is a welcome sight. His performance as Tom Craven, a Boston homicide detective whose 24-year-old daughter (Bojana Novakovic) is shotgun- ex...

• 44 Inch Chest Starring: Ray Winstone, Ian McShane Review: It sounded good: a bunch of foulmouthed geezers taking bloody revenge on the French lover boy (Melvil Poupaud) who stole the wife (Joanne Whalley) of their car-salesman mate (Ray Winstone). With the acting po...

• Creation Starring: Review: This one means well, a kiss-of-death review if there ever was one. Paul Bettany takes an earnest shot at playing Charles Darwin, a 19th-century man obsessed with monkeys, the origin of the species, the death of his favorite daughter a...

• Crazy on the Outside Starring: Tim Allen Review: It might seem unjust to tar Tim Allen's mirthless farce about an ex-con (Allen) looking for a second chance as the worst movie of the worst-movie month. With Leap Year, The Spy Next Door, Tooth Fairy and When in Rome in the ...

• The White Ribbon Starring: Review: Don't let anyone tell you too much about this spellbinder from Austrian writer-director Michael Haneke (Caché). Shot in stunning black-and-white by the gifted Christian Berger, The White Ribbon is a toxic blossom of images that b...

• The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus Starring: Heath Ledger Review: Heath Ledger's last screen performance, a remarkable one interrupted by his tragic death at age 28 in 2008, comes wrapped in the kind of passionate provocation of a movie that the Aussie actor favored. ( Peter Travers rev...

• Sherlock Holmes Starring: Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law, Rachel McAdams Review: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle never imagined his cerebral London detective as a ball-busting action hero. But director Guy Ritchie did. And he's persuaded Robert Downey Jr. to mainline testosterone...

• It's Complicated Starring: Meryl Streep, Alec Baldwin, Steve Martin Review: People over 50 talking about sex and — yikes! — having it! Welcome to It's Complicated, a romcom that qualifies as a waking nightmare for teens and infantile men whose definition of...

• Avatar Starring: Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana Review: Oscar can relax. The epic crowd-pleaser the Academy lusted for is here, the one to show that the geezer voters are hip to what the kids want (3-D IMAX) and what the industry needs (the kind of wowser you'l...

• Nine Starring: Daniel Day-Lewis, Penelope Cruz, Nicole Kidman Review: Rob Marshall's flawed but frequently dazzling Nine is a hot-blooded musical fantasia full of song, dance, raging emotion and simmering sexuality. We get to watch British acting dynamo Dan...

• A Single Man Starring: Colin Firth, Julianne Moore, Nicholas Hoult Review: A sorrowful beauty infuses every frame of this remarkable debut feature from fashion designer Tom Ford. Loosely based on the novel by Christopher Isherwood, A Single Man visits a single day ...

• Me and Orson Welles Starring: Zac Efron, Claire Danes, Christian McKay Review: What do you say about a movie that proves Zac Efron can act, introduces a master thespian in Christian McKay and launches a charm assault that is damn near irresistible? I say, see it. Director...

• Broken Embraces Starring: Penélope Cruz Review: You may get whiplash following the twists and turns in the latest wild ride from Spain?s Pedro Almodóvar. But it hurts so good. Broken Embraces is the fourth film in which Almodóvar has directed his ...

• 2012 Starring: John Cusack, Danny Glover Review: Beware 2012, which works the dubious miracle of almost matching Transformers 2 for sheer, cynical, mind-numbing, time-wasting, money-draining, soul-sucking stupidity. We probably are nearing the end of the mo...

• Pirate Radio Starring: Rhys Ifans, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Nick Frost, Bill Nighy, Janua... Review: Rock & roll history is being retraced in this appealingly ramshackle comedy from Love Actually writer-director Richard Curtis. Set in England circa 1966, the mov...
