Enter Oblivion

Tom Cruise stars in crunchy smoothie [ok]

No peace, no love, misunderstanding

Seriously, this is ‘The Company You Keep’? [meh]

Shane Carruth returns with ‘Upstream Color’ [meh]

There are 50 ways to leave your lover; are there 42 ways to avoid seeing '42'? [meh]

Drinking, Smoking, Cuttin’ a Rug

If this is life 'On the Road' take me home [meh]

David Riedel
Something seems amiss in this version of 'On the Road'; surely, the beats could not have been so conventionally dull, their problems so surface-level, their behavior so easy to unravel.

Look! A Boring Dinosaur!

Do we really need 'Jurassic Park' 3-D? [meh]

David Riedel
So 'Jurassic Park' gets a big 3-D upgrade. Who cares?

It’s Not Really About the Bomb

'Ginger & Rosa' grow up, grow apart [ok]

David Riedel
Ginger and Rosa are inseparable. Their mothers give birth in the same London hospital room at the close of World War II, and the girls spend most of their waking hours together from the time they can walk.
