Spectacular...a head-spinning,
duck-in-your-seat bullet of popcorn entertainment that could shake the
winter blues out of multiplexes everywhere. It's positioned as
the first installment of a trilogy and, if Christensen follows through
on the character's promise of greater charisma and depth, I'll willingly
line up for the next two. Jumper has all the
pieces of an exciting, engaging supernatural slugfest: exotic locations,
cool high-tech toys and sweet special effects |

SEMI-PRO | |
| FEATURING:
Will Ferrell, Woody Harrelson, Andre Benjamin, Maura Tierney, Will Arnett, Andy Richter, Rob Corddry |
||
| Will Ferrell stars in Semi-Pro, an outrageous comedy set in 1976 against the backdrop of the maverick ABA – a fast-paced, wild and crazy basketball league that rivaled the NBA and made a name for itself with innovations like the three-point shot and slam dunk contest. Ferrell plays Jackie Moon, a one-hit wonder who used the profits from the success of his chart-topping song “Love Me Sexy” to achieve his dream of owning a basketball team. But Moon’s franchise, the Flint Michigan Tropics, is the worst team in the league and in danger of folding when the ABA announces its plans to merge with the NBA. If they want to survive, Jackie and the Tropics must now do the seemingly impossible – win. | ||

|
Very much in the tradition
of Slap Shot, Semi-Pro scores big laughs with the rowdy play-by-play of
hard-luck hoopsters struggling for professional survival. You can't help but
marvel, and laugh at, Ferrell's indefatigable enthusiasm and willingness
to make a complete ass of himself.. |

||
| FEATURING:
Jack Black, Mos Def, Danny Glover, Mia Farrow, Melonie Diaz, Irv Gooch |
||
| Jack Black stars in Be Kind Rewind, a one-of-a-kind comedy from the mind of writer/director Michel Gondry. Black stars as a loveable loser stuck in a life that's too small for his big dreams. But when he unintentionally erases all the tapes in a video store where his best friend works, he devises a plan to satisfy the store's few loyal customers by re-creating and re-filming every movie they decide to rent. | ||

Eminently likable.
And there's something about Gondry's persistent nostalgia that feels contemporary,
or opportune, at least. |

THE COUNTERFEITERS | |
| FEATURING:
Karl Markovics, August Diehl, Devid Striesow, Martin Brambach, August Zirner |
||
| Winner of the 2008 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, Stefan Ruzowitzky's THE COUNTERFEITERS is the first film from Austria to ever receive that prestigious honor. Based on the memoir by Adolf Burger, the film tells the inspiring story of a pre-World War II criminal whose cunning and fiery spirit enable him to overcome deadly odds and survive life in Germany's Sachsenhausen concentration camp. Before the war, Salomon Sorowitsch (Karl Markovics) was one of the world's most ingenious counterfeiters, until he was finally caught and arrested by Friedrich Herzog (Devid Striesow). Years later, as the Nazi movement is in full swing, the nefariously charming Herzog--now a Nazi leader--recruits Sorowitsch to lead an enormous counterfeiting project called Operation Bernhard. Placed in a horrific position of moral corruption, Sorowitsch is forced to decide whether or not to save his own life or prevent the Nazis from causing further damage on an even grander scale. His fellow prisoner Adolf Burger (August Diehl) is determined to sabotage the operation, but Sorowitsch understands how dangerous a proposition this is. | ||

Without doing anything
so divisive as taking sides, Counterfeiters pays sympathetic attention
to those who play their cards to win even when the rules are terrible,
not least because the remarkable Markovics is so riveting as an unsaintly
survivor. |

THE BAND'S VISITS | |
| FEATURING:
Sasson Gabai, Ronit Elkabetz, Saleh Bakri, Khalifa Natour, Shlomi Avraham, Uri Gavriel, Imad Jabarin |
||
| THE BAND'S VISIT, is a subtle, heartfelt, and humane work that goes a long way toward dissolving the incredibly complex cultural divide that continues to plague the Middle East. When the Alexandria Ceremonial Police Orchestra flies from Egypt to Israel to perform at the opening of an Arab culture center, they are left stranded at the airport. Their leader, Tewfiq (Sasson Gabai), orders the handsome violinist, Khaled (Saleh Bakri), to solve their predicament, but it turns out that he's gotten the wrong information. By that time, it's too late. All eight members are left standing alone in a quiet desert town far from their intended destination with no way to get where they need to go. Tired, hungry, and confused, they find shelter at a restaurant run by the pretty but brash Dina (Ronit Elkabetz). It's clear that Dina is bored with her lonely life, so she talks Tewfiq into letting the band stay over for the night: he and Khaled will stay with her, and the others will be put up at the home of Itzik (Rubi Moscovich). Over the course of the night, Tewfiq and Dina bond, Khaled helps a hapless local discover his inner Romeo, and the other band members find themselves caught up in a domestic situation that is less than perfect. THE BAND'S VISIT is funny, lonely, inspiring, sad, and beautiful all at once. | ||

Something
marvelous happens as the filmmaker, in his first feature, expertly metes
out small scenes of communication between people taught, for generations,
to be wary of one another: This Band swings with the rhythms of hope. This
modest little fable from Israel, in English, Hebrew and Arabic, has spellbinding
resonances, yet never breaks the spell by blowing its own horn. |

DIGGERS | |
|
FEATURING:
Paul Rudd, Ken Marino, |
||
| In a funny, heartfelt 1970s-era period piece set in the still-unspoiled Hamptons area of Long Island, two generations of hard-living clam diggers try to maintain their way of life in the midst of the enormous changes swirling around them. Their fathers were clam diggers as well as their grandfathers before them. But as corporations gradually buy up local clam territory, their way of life is threatened | ||
|
Genre:
Drama |
||
|
I can’t recommend
this movie enough. Meticulously assembled,
Diggers shuttles among several major characters with an ease and grace
that don’t waste a moment of screen time. But it doesn’t feel rushed. This nicely observed
dramedy about '70s-era Hamptons clam-diggers hits a dramatic bottleneck.

Rambo
hits his stride in the film's second half, meting out justice in an unjust
world and ultimately the movie works best when warbling its out-of-tune
greatest hits. Stallone
is smart enough -- or maybe dumb enough, though I tend to think not --
to present the mythic dimensions of the character without apology or irony.
Welcome back. |

THE AIR I BREATHE | |
| FEATURING:
Andy Garcia, Brendan Fraser, Kevin Bacon, Forest Whitaker, Sarah Michelle Gellar |
||
| Forever linked together by ruthless crime boss, Fingers (Andy Garcia), and a series of unpredictable twists of fate, the characters of this film weave together in an existential study of luck, both good and bad. A timid businessman (Forest Whitaker) bets his life on a horse race after he discovers that the fix is in; a fragile pop star (Sarah Michelle Geller) finds her management contract has been unexpectedly changed; a gangster (Brendan Fraser) who can see the future must decide whether to follow his vision; and a doctor (Kevin Bacon) tries to save the love of his life from a deadly injury. As these stories give way to hidden connections and underlying similarities, The Air I Breath uses this unlikely mix to of drama and characters to dramatize an ancient Chinese proverb that evokes life's four emotional cornerstones: happiness, pleasure, sorrow, and love. | ||

Mad Money is small
change that somehow manages to add up to a satisfying sum. Mad Money is a heist

breezy and zippy and girl-power peppy, it's Keaton who makes Mad Money
worth a few bucks. |

Woody Harrelson, |

| Escorting the elegant but desperately lonely wives and widows of Washington's powerful elite is the favored pastime of Carter Page III. When his best friend Lynn discovers her lover has been murdered, she instinctively turns to Carter for help. Caught in a web of intrigue and mixed motives, Carter suddenly finds himself implicated in the killing. As his friends desert him and the net grows tighter, he must race against time to find a way to clear his name. | ||

Written and directed
with elegant finesse by Paul Schrader, the film is a character study wrapped
in a story of political and corporate misconduct. There is a deep morality
at work here, as often in Schrader's work. [Woody] Harrelson
digs deep for this portrait of shallowness. |
