Osmosis Jones
by DanielleMurray's character, Frank, is the kind of Homer Simpson-esque boob whose idea of a perfect father-daughter weekend is a trip to the annual Buffalo Wing Festival. His diet consists mainly of beer, chips, and Circus Peanuts, with nary a leafy green in sight. Daughter Shane (Elena Franklin), appalled at her pop's careless consumption, keeps hassling the couch potato to shape up and eat right. But Frank's poor noshing habits and lazy lifestyle leave him vulnerable to illness. Intercut with the tale of Frank's sorry existence is the microscopic view inside him, which reveals a sprawling metropolis of cells, germs, and bacteria functioning under the flailing leadership of Mayor Phlemming (voiced by William Shatner). The "City of Frank" offers Jones' most rewarding comic cleverness, with numerous verbal puns related to human biology and an ample array of visual gags. Screenwriter Marc Hyman makes the most of matching each biological element and function to a real-world urban counterpart. Posters for "Peace in the Middle Ear" and "The Million Membrane March" pepper the background, and everything Frank does, from eating to peeing, involves buttons, gizmos, machinery, and the interaction of countless citizens. Nasty germs hole up in Frank's armpits, liver, and festering toes, while his stomach terminal is as busy as O'Hare Airport on Thanksgiving. Hardly thriving, the City of Frank is in disrepair and marked for destruction by the invading, nasty Red Menace, Thrax (Laurence Fishburne), who slices and burns his way through Frank's tissues with a 48-hour agenda. Only Osmosis and his straight-laced, cold-capsule partner, Drix (David Hyde Pierce), see the threat, and the two set about saving their human host from imminent death despite the Frank Police Department's universal disbelief and disdain. The idea of a man's insides being a city is a wonderfully entertaining one, with opportunities for so many jokes. We're told that the Love Handles district is "the fastest-growing community in Frank," and the mayor (William Shatner) is thrilled to announce they're about to begin construction on a third chin. The Mafia hangs out in the armpits, because that's what most closely resembles a sauna. The Farrelly brothers directed the live portions of this film, while the animated sequences were directed by Piet Kroon and Tom Sito. Personally, I enjoyed the animated sequences (which often reminded me of Space Jam) more than the live action ones, if only because there seems to be more life pumped into the drawings than the real life characters. While Bill Murray is funny, he isn't used to his full comedic extent. Still, the live-action stuff with Murray is amusing, and the animated sequences are basically entertaining, so it's not a complete waste of time.

The Gravedancers
by DanielleWhen their pal is killed in a car accident, former college friends Harris (Dominic Purcell), Kira (Josie Maran), and Sid (Marcus Thomas) get together to reminisce and reconnect. After one too many shots and a bottle or three of wine, the trio head out to the cemetery to pay their respects. There, they find an odd sympathy card lying on a gravestone, suggesting that they celebrate their buddy by dancing around the plots. The drunken threesome does just that. A few weeks later, something strange starts happening in each one of their households. Sid is plagued by odd noises and small fires. Kira is attacked and beaten by an unseen force. Even Harris and his wife Allison (Clare Kramer) are visited by a female spirit who wants to destroy their wedded bliss. After Kira is nearly killed, Sid suggests that all three work with his paranormal investigators, Vincent (Tcheky Karyo) and Culpepper (Meghan Perry). The pair has a plan, but time is definitely running out. The ghosts are getting stronger and they plan on killing off these craven Gravedancers before the next full moon. Perhaps the most interesting aspect of this narrative is Mendez's desire to create a kind of new or novel horror mythology. In this case, it's the concept of the Gravedancer's Lament, a poem that purports to celebrate death while actually functioning as a fascinating curse. Harris was played by Dominic Purcell, who you might have seen in the series Prison Break. He went above and beyond in this movie, doing his own stunts and even having himself buried alive for one scene. The Gravedancers is an example of filmaking a small budget. Filmed on location in North Carolina, the atmosphere of doom looms over every character. The effects are spectacular, the plot original, and the characters are people you actually care about. The director Mike Mendez has director a future classic.

Purgatory
by DanielleThe plot mainly involves a gang of outlaws led by Blackjack (Eric Roberts) on the run who end up in a town that is none other than the realm of judgment itself. The town is populuated by the worst outlaws of the old west (Billy the Kid, Jesse James,Doc Holliday, and Wild Bill) who have been given a second chance at salvation- if they can survive an indeterminate period of time without giving in to temptations to sin, they will be saved. The production was very well mounted with smoothly displayed photography that captured the vastness and close details that sprawled along the screen and a sulky, fine-tuned score that created an eerie howl, really does lift it out of the very stuffy mould of TV features.

Matilda
by DanielleMara Wilson plays Matilda, a sweet-faced and exceedingly intelligent little girl trapped within a family of buffoons. Her mom and dad (DeVito and Rhea Perlman) are not exactly abusive, but they sure are mean! Matilda's also got a big brother, but he's kind of a jerk, too, so the little girl falls madly in love with books. But when Matilda finally gets her fondest wish, enrollment in school, she's just sure her life is about to take a turn for the better. Matilda's new school is a ramshackle labyrinth that's ruled by a hulking brute called Agatha Trunchbull. The good news is that Matilda's teacher is a lovely young sweetheart named Ms. Honey (Embeth Davidtz) plus young Matilda is just beginning to show some rather amazing powers of telekinesis. DeVito's direction and Dahl's novel click together like a shiny, enchanted Lego block fantasy castle, albeit encircled by a murky moat in which float the blacker elements of the story: child abuse, abandonment, uncaring adults, and malignant ignorance. The dark themes, however, are no more threatening than what you might find in a typical fairy tale such as "Rapunzel." Matilda's inherent superiority over her parents is simply and touchingly portrayed, and there is at least one quite magical scene where she levitates a deck of cards and flies them around the room. On the minus side the title role does contain a precocious performance from Mara Wilson, although the uncommonly willowy and thin Embeth Davidtz does come across quite nicely as Miss Honey.

Lions for Lambs
by DanielleLions for Lambs is the latest in a series of films that have crashed and burned at the box office indicating American filmgoers' lack of appetite for movies dealing with the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and while it is ultimately filled with words that don't speak as loudly as some of the film's bursts of action, it's filled with tremendous turns by its stellar cast. Tom Cruise picks up where his character in Magnolia left off as a handsome, polished and arrogant GOP senator who wields his charisma like a weapon in his near film-long interview with journalist Meryl Streep whom he invites to share his new risky strategy for the war in Afghanistan. Meanwhile we?re introduced to a privileged, brainy and apathetic college student called to the office of liberal professor Robert Redford to try and engage the young man whose formerly spirited debates marked him as a scholar to watch. Redford tells the student of the last two young men who'd inspired him who attended the university on a scholarship only to volunteer for military duty in Afghanistan. The flashbacks of Michael Pena and Derek Luke as two forthright and heroic young men mark the high points of the film and tensely effective editing is employed as the talk is intercut with the plight of the two students now soldiers being affected by all of the new strategies and issues discussed in the comfort of air-conditioned rooms in America as they fight in the Middle East. Redford's character had us believing that a slight difference could be made by concerned citizens but still, in the end, the two endearing characters we find ourselves most inspired by are not the academic, politician or writer but two young soldiers who take action because they feel they have been failed by words. "Lambs" isn't beholden to Van Damme theatrics and procedural humdrum. It's a more modestly constructed piece, leading with long, curled ribbons of dialogue, preferring verbal gunfire to the real thing. Cruise is careful not to turn Irving into a total baboon. The actor plays the role with slyness and unraveling patience. Lions for Lambs wasn't based on a true story but it is about the very real situation this country is in. Lions for Lambs is a very good, powerful movie that raises some interesting questions. It makes you think and deserves to be seen.

Ocean's Twelve
by DanielleThe decidedly non-breezy story picks up promisingly when casino owner Tony Benedict (Garcia) has caught up with the Ocean's gang, demanding the $161 million they stole from his casino. Quickly jumping from one Ocean member to the other, we see that Danny Ocean (Clooney) is living in Connecticut with his wife Tess (Roberts). Rusty (Pitt) owns the Standard Hotel in Hollywood. Linus (Damon) is in Chicago worrying about the typical things he worries about. Frank's (Mac) into getting manicures, and Basher (Cheadle) is producing a record. Each character is doing with their money precisely as we'd imagine, which, so far in the movie, is interesting and amusing. Once in Europe however, things get mucked up when Rusty's old flame shows up, a stunning woman (Zeta-Jones) who just happens to be an Interpol detective. Equally as adept as the crooks, she's hot on their trail and, more than likely, still hot for Rusty. Meanwhile another master thief has entered the picture, a debonair Frenchman, played by the wonderful Vincent Cassel. The filtered images of Rome and Amsterdam are impeccably shot, and almost as beautiful as the cast. As with the original, the jazz-infused score by David Holmes helps to liven the pace a bit, even when nothing is happening. Ocean's Twelve is sometimes fun and sometimes funny, but never remotely as fun or funny as the film that preceded it. Characters that were richly developed in the first film are left to dry out into caricatures and generic crooks in the sequel. Even the scene-stealing Casey Affleck and Scott Caan, as feuding Mormon brothers, can't rescue the film from degrading into a series of sad attempts at "witty banter" filtered through a lazy screenplay. The film's few gem moments are its most self-referential, namely a sequence where Julia Roberts's Tess is hastily recruited to participate in a heist that's gone wrong. Part of the scam is that Tess in the movie is thought to closely resemble the real Julia Roberts. It is a comedy, albeit way too self aware a comedy, but a heist film it is not.

The X-Files - Fight the Future
by DanielleIt starts off with a boy falling into a pit and being attacked by hundreds of small, slug-like creatures that crawl into his eye sockets and over his eyes. More people enter into the pit in an ill-fated attempt to rescue the boy, and they wind up being knocked unconscious (or put into a deep sleep) like the boy. The bodies are all transported to a hospital, and that same hospital later blows up after Scully (Gillian Anderson) and Mulder (David Duchovny) are unable to stop an implanted terrorist bomb from detonating inside a coke maching. But then Mulder is told by a mysterious man outside a bar (Martin Landau) that the bomb was never attempted to be defused. It was all an elaborate cover-up to hide the bodies of the pit victims. Mulder shrugs off the old man at first before he realizes that the man used to be a friend of his father's, and that he has some interesting true stories to tell. As with the series, the acting is first-rate. David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson know their roles so well, they probably don't have to work very hard at being in character. Much the same can be said of the stellar supporting cast. If you?re a fan then you have probably no doubt already seen the movie.

Solaris
by DanielleSnow: "How much sleep ya need, Kelvin?
Chris Kelvin: How much sleep?
Snow: Yeah. Um, how long ya think you can go without sleep?
Chris Kelvin: Depends.
Snow: Well, when you do go to sleep... I find I sleep much better with the door locked."
Chris Kelvin (George Clooney) has come to Solaris for answers. Still broken and disconnected from the death of his wife, Kelvin is going through the motions, investigating the puzzle of what happened to the crew of the Prometheus, what drove one man to suicide and the survivors to the edge of madness. But when Kelvin's dead wife Rheya (Natascha McElhone) awakens beside him, he will discover that the greatest mysteries of all lie within our own memories and desires. In Solaris, Clooney is forced to stretch as he never has before, and without much expository dialogue to cover him. Facial expressions, gestures, even body positions allow Clooney to carry much of the film's emotional weight in fairly subtle fashion. The film's second act is strong, driven by the characters and their jumbled memories of Rheya's earlier, tragic demise on Earth. Jeremy Davies delivers a solid performance as Snow, one of the demented crew members who clearly is troubled and is hiding a secret from the others. What makes this a great movie is that it stayed true from the beginning. There were no monsters, cheap thrill scenes or excessive sub-plot points so typical of the sci-fi genre. The camerawork was well done and the music was consistent with the tone of the film.Hey, you should really see this!

Rails & Ties
by DanielleDevoted railroad engineer Tom Stark (Kevin Bacon, Mystic River) is at a crossroads. His lovely wife Megan (Marcia Gay Harden, Pollack) has survived two bouts with cancer, though now it's terminal. Because of her fragile health, their marriage has been stale for some time, and it's about to be seriously tested with the arrival of a 9-year-old boy.
Davey Danner's (Miles Heizer, ER) mother has just committed suicide. She was killed when the train that Stark was operating smashed into her car. As a result, the precious boy is placed in a foster home, though he is determined to confront the man responsible for not stopping the train. Meanwhile, Megan has decided to leave Tom for awhile, even though she has minimal time remaining. When Davey shows up, Megan takes a liking to him and says she'll stay if Davey stays. The conflicted Tom has no choice, and little does he realize how much of a profound effect Davey will bring to the home. Eastwood's debut as a director is more than impressive. It's clear she's learned much from her father, and visually tells this story clearly and eloquently. Bacon's searing work - coupled with the simple yet thoroughly effective conclusion. It's actually nice to see Marcia Gay Harden not relegated to the role of The Wife or The Mother, and get to sink her teeth into a full-bodied character. And to the extent that the character stands apart from the ludicrous circumstances into which the film throws her, Gay Harden's performance is effective, her excitement at having someone to love almost registering as an actual human emotion. Miles Heizer, who has a hefty part as Davey is also good. "Rails & Ties" is in some ways the serious-drama.Hey, you should really see this! "Rails & Ties" is in some ways the serious-drama.

The Girl Next Door
by DanielleBased on the 1965 true story about Sylvia Likens was brutally tortured, raped and eventually murdered in the basement of a family member's Indiana home. This is a real horror movie, This is not your Friday the 13th or Halloween laughable horror movie that leaves you chuckling and wonder how stupid people can be. This is a gut wrenching horror movie that will leave you breathless, with some scenes that are very hard to watch. The story revolves around two girls who have recently been orphaned and are sent to live with their aunt who has three young sons. She is a middle aged woman obsessed with feminine purity who sees the new arrivals as a potentially corrupting influence on the masculine world she presides over. The pacing is also remarkable- by the time Meg has been imprisoned in the basement and 'the game' has begun, we have become unwilling but necessary witnesses of a despicable crime, uncertain as to the precise point at which the line was irrevocably crossed. So many otherwise innocent children have come under Ruth's sway, observing and engaging in acts they would never normally countenance, and it doesn't even seem remarkable, merely plausible.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
by DanielleWilly Wonka: "Do you like my meadow? Try some of my grass! Please have a blade, please do, it's so delectable and so darn good looking!
Charlie Bucket: You can eat the grass?
Willy Wonka: Of course you can! Everything in this room is eatable, even *I'm* eatable! But that is called "cannibalism," my dear children, and is in fact frowned upon in most societies."
Burton does play it close to the source novel, even going so far as to keep the lyrics to the Oompa-Loompa songs as direct quotes from the book. A mysterious candy magnate invites five children who find Golden Tickets in his candy bars to an exclusive tour of his magical factory. Central to our story is Charlie Bucket (Freddie Highmore), a dirt poor boy who lives down the street from the factory in a shack that, in the real world, would be condemned and turned into an office building under eminent domain rules. He's the only decent child in the bunch. The rest are monsters, including the obese glutton Augustus Gloop (Philip Wiegratz), uber-spoiled Brit kid Veruca Salt (Julia Winter), TV junkie Mike Teavee (Jordan Fry), and the driven, gum-chewing Village of the Damned-look-alike Violet Beauregarde (Annasophia Robb). Each comes in tow with a parent who does little or nothing to correct their awful behavior, which is on full display during the factory tour. Depp delivers flawlessly. His Willy is unhinged and unhappy, incredibly inventive, and emotionally evasive all at the same time?sometimes in the same second. There are so many layers to this performance, so many individual moments when you witness his true talent in bringing an actual weirdo to life, that you smile in brain-busted disbelief at how this amazing actor does it. His Wonka is one of a kind?as charming as Wilder's and equally as sinister. As for Charlie, little Freddie Highmore is definitely on par with Peter Ostrum as the disaffected dreamer of a boy. Highmore plays young Master Bucket with a lot more openness and warmth than Ostrum, who seemed stifled by having to co-star alongside that certified scene-stealer Jack Albertson. David Kelly's Grandpa Joe is less of a show off and more of a sidekick in this film. He gets his moments to shine, but he doesn't dominate. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is not just a successful revision of the beloved favorite, it's a new entry in the family film Hall of Fame.Hey, you should really see this!
