AWAY WE GO
As big, dumb summer “entertainments” go, they don’t get much bigger or much dumber than “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.”
Sandra Bullock may be aging out of the years when Hollywood sees her as Miss Congeniality, but not without one last fling. “The Proposal” has her playing the icy boss who blackmails her younger assistant into a sham marriage to save her Green Card.
“Year One” is this summer’s “The Love Guru,” this weekend’s “Land of the Lost.”
“Shall We Kiss?” is a sensational date movie. Writer-director-star Emmanuel Mouret restores the first kiss to its romantic primacy. He undresses his characters – physically and psychologically – with a light comic touch. They’re amorous idealists. They must be sure that they’re in love before they bank their future on their passions. They must commit to each other totally before they hurt anyone else in their lives.
There are probably no better hands to entrust virtue of any sort to than those of writer-director Stephan Elliott, the Australian filmmaker who brought such delightful flamboyance to the drag queens at the generous heart of “The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.” A ski accident pulled him out of the movie game for years until some clever producers tracked him down and got him to help adapt and then direct “Easy Virtue,” a Noel Coward comedy of manners. It’s great to have Mr. Elliott back.
The words “Eddie Murphy family comedy” are enough to send shivers down the spine of any self-respecting film lover.
That 1970s action classic “The Taking of Pelham 123” earns an efficient if not exactly riveting treatment from Tony Scott, the lesser of the two hyper-editing Scott brothers.
For all the ideological differences between Israelis and Palestinians, there is a remarkable similarity in their national cinemas, where boundaries, borders, and checkpoints loom large, literally and metaphorically. Chain-link fences and Jersey barricades are to Israeli and Palestinian movies what cherry blossoms and tea ceremonies are to the Japanese.
Mark Ruffalo and Adrien Brody play swindling siblings in this affected, emo caper movie. Their mark is Rachael Weisz, a madcap heiress living alone in poor-little-rich-girl splendor.
This is a joke, right?
