Movie Review: What Happens In Vegas
May 12, 2008
“What Happens in Vegas” is a film that views marriage as a combat sport. Forced into a temporary marriage of inconvience, characters played by Ashton Kutcher and Cameron Diaz, come out fighting. They play every dirty trick on each other, until, yes, they fall in love. However, the film is only interested in the dirty tricks. The love stuff is shrugged off with a sneer.

Movie Review: Iron Man
May 6, 2008
“Iron Man,” directed by Jon Favreau (“Elf,” “Zathura”), has the advantage of being an unusually good superhero picture. Or at least — since it certainly has its problems — a superhero movie that’s good in unusual ways. The film benefits from a script (credited to Mark Fergus, Hawk Ostby, Art Marcum and Matt Holloway) that generally chooses clever dialogue over manufactured catchphrases and lumbering exposition, and also from a crackerjack cast that accepts the filmmakers’ invitation to do some real acting rather than just flex and glower and shriek for a paycheck.
