    The Little Things | Review

    by Andrew Parker January 26, 2021
    by Andrew Parker January 26, 2021

    The Little Things prefers style and formula over genuine substance, but there’s something undeniably charming about its nasty, unabashed familiarity.

    Director John Lee Hancock talks about the long road to The Highwaymen

    by Andrew Parker March 25, 2019
    by Andrew Parker March 25, 2019

    Texan filmmaker John Lee Hancock is no stranger to tackling often uncelebrated and sometimes controversial historical figures, but the subjects of his latest reality based project, The Highwaymen (premiering on Netflix on Friday, March 29 and currently seeing a limited run at TIFF Bell Lightbox in Toronto), have been stuck in the omnipresent shadows of the criminals they helped capture in 1934.

    This week on DVD and Blu-ray: a review of Sandra Bullock‘s Oscar-winning performance in The Blind Side; Tobey Maguire and Jake Gyllenhaal star in the drama, Brothers; George Clooney plays a psychically gifted solider in the offbeat farce, Men Who Stare At Goats; plus a look at the much-praised animated film, Fantastic Mr. Fox.

    Review of ‘The Alamo’ starring Dennis Quaid as Sam Houston

    by Christopher Heard April 9, 2004
    by Christopher Heard April 9, 2004

    When The Alamo is good, it is very good. The battle scenes are terrifically and terrifyingly stages. The characters are well drawn and memorable, and the storytelling is smart and interesting (for a change we have a film that doesn’t venture to insult the intelligence of the average twelve year). When it isn’t quite so good, it is still okay, it just feels a bit slow and uneven.
