Emma Thompson is the show stealer here as the title character, even behind the layers of make-up.

City Island is filled with assumptions, gorgeous location shooting, and various breakdowns.

Anything that can kill time in this lifeless, empty sequel was a good thing to the producers

It doesn’t have the draw, or the science, to really become absorbing.

Vacation may be one of the greatest American comedies, certainly underrated in this regard.

Just remember it’s only funny because it isn’t you (and because it’s Chevy Chase in his prime).

Spies Like Us gets away with quite a bit, mostly because Landis sets his usual “anything goes” tone…

The film is too fast, too bold, and too exaggerated to be any fun.

Unsurprisingly, the bigger A-list stars are killed off quickly in this incoherent mess that pits two rival assassin teams against each other in some underground government facility.

Most of the film seems like an attempt to turn Tracy Morgan into Chris Tucker from Rush Hour with the same agonizing result.
