Title: The Lifeguard Director: Liz W. Garcia Starring: Kristen Bell, Mamie Gummer, Martin Starr, David Lambert, Alex Shaffer, Joshua Harto, John Finn, Paulie Litt, Adam Lefevre, Amy Madigan The seriocomic feature film debut of television director Liz W. Garcia, “The Lifeguard” offers up a contrived series of precious posed moments in telling the story of a young career woman who moves back home in an effort to shake off a low-lying cloud of personal and professional ambivalence. In her starring role, Kristen Bell delivers a charming, engaging performance, but the much sharper take on this same sort of thirtysomething ennui (even though Bell’s character is quick to point out that [ Read More ]

Human-simian relations go terribly awry in "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" with James Franco this week. Unfortunately, it is not the first time that humans and monkeys have come to blows in film, but Homo sapiens have had a few ape friends over the years. In fact, sometimes chimps can even be heroes. Here are the five movie monkeys that we would most like to hang out with if given the chance.
5. Ed, "Ed" (1996)
Jack Cooper's (Matt LeBlanc) baseball-playing sidekick copped some attitude and gave a horrible Razzie-winning performance in "Ed." If you haven't seen it, just spend a couple of minutes watching the trailer, and you'll think you're looking at something concocted by the Onion or "Tim and Eric's Awesome Show, Great Job!" The film is very real, though, and it's a true testament to the fact that even the worst movie ever written can still...

Doubtby Steve Ramos, Writer Meryl Streep is the perfect villain in suspenseful ‘Doubt’ If esteemed film critic Pauline Kael were still alive, watching and reviewing movies, I imagine she would pounce all over Meryl Streep for her performance in “Doubt” as villainous Sister Aloysius, a Bronx school principal and Catholic nun in 1964, convinced that a young priest, Father Flynn (Philip Seymour Hoffman), molested a male student. Kael frequently accused Streep of playacting, of emphasizing foreign accents and changes in her physical appearance instead of more natural performances. With “Doubt,” the most intimate of the year- end, prestige releases, a period film drama that’s nearly perfect, Kael would have targeted Streep’s Irish lilt, wire-framed spectacles and black bonnet and cloak. Kael would have criticized Streep for once again playing dress up but in the case of writer/director John Patrick Shanley’s “Doubt,” an adaptation of his acclaimed stage play,...
