Episode Review: The Mentalist - 4.24: "Crimson Hat"

18 May 2012 8:33 AM, PDT | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »

To say that things have been going down-hill for Patrick Jane (Simon Baker) is probably the understatement of the season. And while Red John saturated episode are usually the more intriguing ones of the season, this one didn’t deliver anything new. Well, Jane *does* get to finally have a sex life, so I guess that’s new. But everything else went so predictably, I’m starting to pray they wrap up the Rd John story line very soon. This show doesn’t do time jumps often, but it has apparently been 6 months since Jane got fired from the Cbi. Now he’s had 6 months to drink, con and basically go back to his Lord of Lies ways. Lisbon (Robin Tunney) and the others haven’t seen nor heard from him, but apparently they also can’t solve too many cases without him either. I was so hoping that they »

TV Review: The Mentalist 4.23, ‘Red Rover, Red Rover’

11 May 2012 11:05 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Wow. I said last week to expect little fun and a ton of intensity in these last two episodes – and I wasn’t wrong. Now I usually break down the case and then discuss the themes or ongoing plots seperately, but this weeks case was so in tune with Jane’s breakdown that I’m just going to go ahead and dive right in.

Red John leaves Patrick Jane (Simon Baker)  a note that reads ‘Happy Anniversary’ – creepy. Red John manipulates a young girl into giving Jane a message – extra creepy. “Do you give up yet?” she says, Red John smiley drawn on her hand. This being a young girl not unlike his late daughter (which I’m sure was Rj’s intention) Jane takes it upon himself to hypnotise her, making her forget about the ordeal with Red John.

Episode Review: The Mentalist - 4.23: "Red Rover, Red Rover"

11 May 2012 9:21 AM, PDT | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »

Patrick Jane’s (Simon Baker) day goes from bad to worse. Which isn’t really surprising when Red John makes another appearance. And while you can definitely say Red John is taunting Jane, it doesn’t seem like enough of a taunt to send him into a tailspin as it does. Perhaps it’s the timing of everything, on the 8th anniversary of his family’s murder, and Jane doesn’t need another butchered body to send him reeling, but a little girl with a message: “Are you ready to give up?” I’ve always said that Red John and Jane have a twisted symbiotic relationship going. Jane needs to hunt Red John to give him purpose, and Red John needs Jane as a worthy opponent. Yin and Yang, light and dark, however you want to put it, these two are connected. But the two steps forward, three steps back »

Matt's Inside Line: Scoop on NCIS: La, Grey's Anatomy, NCIS, Smash, The Mentalist and More!

4 May 2012 10:13 AM, PDT | TVLine.com | See recent TVLine.com news »

How will the doomed Grey’s Anatomy character die? Which NCIS: La agent will be most affected by “playing house”? What bombshell might the Smash finale drop? Read on for answers to those questions plus other teases from TV’s hottest shows.

Grey’s Anatomy | This week’s Ask Ausiello eliminated a few names – Meredith’s included – from the season finale Death Watch, but the other big question heading into that pivotal episode is how we lose a familiar face. Will it be an instantaneous death like gunman victim Reed Adamson’s? Will he/she die on the table a la George O’Malley? »

Episode Review: The Mentalist - 4.22: "So Long, and Thanks for All the Red Snapper"

4 May 2012 9:39 AM, PDT | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »

Tonight’s The Mentalist (TV) wins the award for longest episode title that has really nothing to do with the episode plot. That said, it was a pretty enjoyable episode with some nice character driven moments for the cast. In fact, Cho (Tim Kang) might have walked away with the most emotional story line with his quirky Ci Summer (Samaire Armstrong) and that is always a welcome surprise. The facts are these: A surfer and underwater salvage diver has gone missing, with only his expensive surfboard left on the beach. While chasing crabs – because it’s a beach and butterflies rarely lead one to the corpses - Jane (Simon Baker) manages to stumble on the missing man’s dead body. Sounds easy enough, right? Much to Lisbon’s (Robin Tunney) dismay, this case will land someone from her past right back in her lap, and unfortunately, right in front of Patrick Jane as well. »

'The Shield' star Kenny Johnson to guest on 'The Mentalist'

Kenny Johnson has won a role on The Mentalist. The former star of The Shield will guest in a May episode of the CBS drama, reports TV Guide. He will play Greg Taybeck, the high school boyfriend and ex-fiancé of Lisbon (Robin Tunney). "She ran away [from that relationship] to find a different life," explained Mentalist creator Bruno Heller. "So, she stops and has to reassess her life and look at the paths not taken. Her boyfriend has kids, and she doesn't. So, how does she feel about that?" Lisbon will also face a crisis when Taybeck becomes involved in a Cbi investigation.

Episode Recap: The Mentalist - 4.19: "Pink Champagne on Ice"

2 April 2012 3:04 PM, PDT | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »

This episode brings back another shady character from Jane's (Simon Baker) carny past, but unlike the other walks down memory lane, this one might have been better off forgotten. Don't get me wrong, there were some entertaining bits. But unfortunately not enough to mark this episode as anything but a filler. A guy is dead on the side of the road with a casino chip in his pocket. Wait… didn't I see this in season 1? A casino at the heart of a murder investigation? Yeah, pretty sure I did. At any rate, the casino in question is a second rate affair with third rate talent running the magic show. Entertaining thing number one: the head of security is Christopher Judge. The old Stargate fan in me was very pleased. Holmes (Christopher Judge) tells Lisbon (Robin Tunney) that dead guy was a security guy there. Meanwhile, Jane has wandered off to heckle the resident magician, »

SXSW 2012 film review

complete coverage of SXSW Film 2012

See Girl Run

Director & Screenwriter: Nate Meyer

What happens when a 30-something woman allows life’s “what ifs” to overwhelm her appreciation for what life actually is. Disregarding her current obligations, she digs into her romantic past in hopes of invigorating her present.

Cast: Robin Tunney, Adam Scott, Jeremy Strong, William Sadler, Josh Hamilton

(World Premiere)

Film Synopsis (from SXSW.com)

Who’S It For? It’s a slow-moving film about a woman having major inner-issues with her marriage. There are tinges of comedy throughout.

Overall

I drank a Monster Energy drink before seeing this film. I love Scott. Those two things weren’t enough to keep me alert. It’s tough to find a way in to See Girl Run and I never did.

For some reason we have a documentary-style film to start us off. Emmie (Tunney) gives us »

SXSW '12 Review: 'See Girl Run' Has A Slightly Too Leisurely Stride

11 March 2012 6:40 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

There's a fine line between delicacy and fragility, between a gentle unfolding and a stubbornly slow series of revelations. That line is what keeps Nate Meyer's "See Girl Run," a midlife romantic drama, from succeeding as well as the great cinematography and talented cast would have you hope. Robin Tunney's marriage is foundering in familiarity in New York; Adam Scott's relationship and life are stalled and stuck in the town she left behind, even as he draws elegant and joyous frogs and caricatures. So she comes home, to see her parents and her brother, and he sees her. And remembers how much he used to love her. And she remembers, too. But love is not memory, and love is not hope.

Thematically, "See Girl Run" explores some interesting things that are cropping up more often than not in indie cinema and here at SXSW -- the idea that »

Episode Recap: The Mentalist - 4.17: "Cheap Burgundy"

9 March 2012 2:37 PM, PST | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »

As usual, no one can solve a case without the mighty Patrick Jane (Simon Baker), and I was really kind of appalled that the Lisbon (Robin Tunney) and her team couldn't crack the measly B plot case this week. The more interesting interactions revolved around Agent Darcy (Catherine Dent) and Jane, but it's really becoming sad how Lisbon can't seem to get a win without Jane in her corner. B Plot case starts our first, with the murder of Matilda Cruise, who'd been killed after meeting with a Shakespearian chat-room buddy. Her boss, Philo (Craig Sheffer) has put up a huge reward for information about her killer, but Jane just bates Philo into punching him because he's already pegged Philo as the killer. Damn. Jane doesn't have to do anything but ask impertinent questions, get smacked and boom, he's solved a case? Philo is brought into interrogation while Lisbon and »
