Just when Jamie Foxx gets back into my good graces with a nice, nuanced performance in The Kingdom, he goes and indulges his worst glory-seeking interests by taking the lead in The Soloist, a true-life biopic (ugh) centered on the heartbreaking tale of… Continue reading
Y'all know me. Know how I feel about men fightin' in the nude. And now you know how David Cronenberg and Viggo Mortensen – with their second collaboration, Eastern Promises – feel about it, too (courtesy of The Globe and Mail‘s Liam Lacey): "But the… Continue reading
There's really no point in rehashing the love of Apatow this week, is there? The film to see, undoubtedly, is Superbad. Jump on it. AS SUMMER COMES TO A CLOSE The internet allows for expediency heretofore unimagined, so let's do an analysis of the summer… Continue reading

A note from Devin: Heroes Season 1 is hitting DVD in a couple of days (click here to buy it from CHUD!). To get the word out, we’re participating in a multi-site scenario, where each site examines a different aspect of one Heroes tag line; ours was ‘How do… Continue reading
