Posted: This sci-fi thriller about a young man who discovers he has a gift for teleportation would seem to be a perfect match for Doug Liman ("The Bourne Identity," "Mr. & Mrs. Smith"). But for a picture steeped in wormholes and zippy trips via the space-time continuum, "Jumper" proves disappointingly inert. |
Wild West Comedy Show: 30 Days & 30 Nights -- Hollywood to the Heartland Posted: TORONTO -- Vince Vaughn's name might be the one on the marquee every night, but his "Wild West Comedy Show: 30 Days & 30 Nights - Hollywood to the Heartland" is all about the unknowns - four performers plucked from the Comedy Store (former home to Richard Pryor) for a monthlong trek through the South and Midwest. |
Posted: One soldier tellingly calls his training in the Mojave Desert "one big reality TV show," and the movie never makes clear whether such training does any good. |
Posted: In his debut, Turkish director Seyfi Teoman captures both the charm of what it means to be a child during summer vacation and an overwhelming feeling of grief. |
Posted: As breezy as the title suggests, the film, which screened here in Competition, is about as far as can be imagined from such bleak Leigh classics as "Vera Drake" and "Naked." It's as surprising as it is delicious with an indelible performance by Sally Hawkins. |
Posted: Doris Doerrie goes beyond the "Lost in Translation" jokes about East-West culture clashes in her film that's full of symbols of impermanence -- flies, flowers, cherry blossoms. |
Posted: Female audiences will enjoy a sense of vindication to see men banished from the stadium and get a taste of what the heroines of "Offside" suffered. |
Posted: PARK CITY -- This is a surefire festival selection that's destined to live happily ever after on DVD and European TV. Russian writer-director Anna Melikian's film recently won the World Cinema Directing Award at last month's Sundance Film Festival. |
