<b>LESS THAN ZERO:</b> For anyone who's read the novel by Bret Easton Ellis, wherein the title 
isn't a message, this is a pretty big disappointment... But as an MTV-era 
anti-drug flick it's not bad thanks to Robert Downey Jr. as the only 
character who matters, a coke addicted sheister in way over his head...<br />
<br />
He owes fifty grand to a dealer, played by the capably villainous James Spader with the equally intimidating Michael Bowen as a muscular henchman, and is constantly rescued by 
his closest friends: Andrew McCarthy who, as Downey's estranged buddy returning 
from Ivy League college, provides an ambiguous perspective to the party-life... And 
Jami Gertz is their beautiful lass, a model snorting loads of coke yet is a nun
 compared to Downey.<br />
<br />
The pros are anything concerning RDJ's downfall; 
the cons are windswept sex scenes between McCarthy and Gertz that seem 
out of a Madonna video.<br />

<b>ROOSTER COGBURN:</b> John Wayne as Rooster Cogburn is back. He's playing the Oscar-winning TRUE GRIT character to the hilt: giving his fans what they paid for. 
Which the movie does decently enough, adding Katharine Hepburn as a 
minister's daughter who, in her own way, is as tough as he is: her and Wayne provide AFRICAN QUEEN style banter throughout. <br />
<br />
Along 
with an Indian teen they head after a gaggle of baddies who killed 
Kate's dad and stole a stagecoach full of explosives, led by 
bloodthirsty Richard Jordan and including Anthony Zerbe, Jack Colvin, 
and Cult Film Freak favorite, Paul Koslo.<br />
<br />
The action occurs in pockets between bouncy, 
subliminally-romantic banter by the two leads, and everything balances 
nicely, consummated by a terrific finale as Rooster takes out the 
villains with a literal bang. <br />

<b>JOE KIDD:</b> With an exception of one scene involving Clint Eastwood, as a gunslinger
 hired to catch a Mexican revolutionary, elaborately escaping from a 
lookout post, this is a sluggish Western that lacks Eastwood's usual 
action and Elmore Leonard's wit, charm and creative twists...<br />
<br />
The bad guys
 are top-notch actors including Robert Duvall, Paul Koslo and Don 
Stroud, but have little to do except stand around, not smiling. 
Fake-mustached John Saxon is laughable as the sought-after Bandito, and 
even the scenery is bland and lackluster.<br />

<b>WALL STREET 2: MONEY NEVER SLEEPS:</b> Michael Douglas returns as Gordon Gekko, the villainous love-to-hate 
stock market pirate from Oliver Stone's original outing, a lightweight 
classic starring Charlie Sheen as a climber who learns from Gekko how to
 cut corners and make a ton of money.<br />
<br />
In that film, Gekko convinces us 
that greed is good. Now, eight years after being released from prison 
for insider-trading, he's not so sure... of anything. He has a book to 
sell, but heaven knows what it's about since Gekko doesn't preach good 
or evil. The Man is an ambiguously vacant bore, just like Shai LaBeouf, resembling a college freshman playing broker, engaged to Gekko's 
estranged, mopey daughter.<br />
<br />
Douglas provides a 
side-character role, advising Shia on overthrowing evil Josh Brolin, 
whose one-dimensional baddie is a weak replacement for the young 
Gekko... but there's no seduction into power: just a dully conceived, 
revenge-driven motive without any purpose. And the stock market crash of
 2008, shown during the third act, adds nothing to the overall 
nothingness. <br />

<b>THE OMEGA MAN:</b> For a last man on earth film, there's sure a lot of people around...<br />
<br />
Charlton Heston either mumbles or screams his way through an apocalyptic
 disease-caused future with a group of fanatical white-haired albinos 
that, once night falls, are constantly on his back. Then he meets a 
dozen normal humans including Paul Koslo and sexy Rosiland Cash, and a 
good versus infected-evil battle ensues.<br />
<br />
Heston's character, a doctor 
with the only cure, should have had more isolation from the start to 
feel his solitude and separation. Instead, within the first five minutes
 he's gunning down baddies like any sci-fi/action flick, which this is a
 mediocre version of.<br />

<b>THE LONG RIDERS:</b> How could a film directed by action-guru Walter Hill and starring real 
life brothers Carradine, Quaid and Keach not live up to its incredible reputation? A few reasons...<br />
<br />
One, the opening feels like the middle: a bank robbery/introduction to 
the gang, primarily bloodthirsty, gun-happy Dennis Quaid. Perhaps this 
is to separate the murderer from the other outlaws, all depicted as 
misunderstood saints... yet another problem...<br />
<br />
While many outlaw flicks 
lionize the historically depicted antagonists, this goes too far: 
leaving the characters completely uninteresting.<br />
<br />
Walter Hill provides a 
few brief action scenes, but mostly we get alluring landscapes and dull,
 overlong conversations with our dusty heroes and their gals (the same 
problem would occur in Michael Mann's HEAT). Hill tries so hard to show 
the diamonds in the rough there's hardly any rough at all.  <br />

<b>I DISMEMBER MAMA:</b> An awesome yet very misleading title. POOR ALBERT AND LITTLE ANNIE, the original 
name, is what the movie is about, involving a mother-spun yet dashing 
psycho, Albert, who escapes from a mental hospital and returns home to 
kill: but mommy's not around.<br />
<br />
He slaughters the maid and afterwards, her
 eleven year old daughter, Annie, stops by and the rest is a field trip 
as Albert takes Annie on train rides, boat rides, then to a hotel after a
 contrived marriage.<br />
<br />
Sound sick? Surprisingly, it isn't. Albert despises
 adult women because they are, in his mind, sexually evil. But Annie, 
being young and innocent, is beyond that "curse" and their friendship is
 actually quite innocent. Although, what makes this film suspenseful is the 
question: when will he turn against her? Then the climactic foot chase 
into a mannequin shop provides icing on a very bizarre cake... that 
isn't for everyone.<br />

<b>AFTER HOURS: </b>The underrated Griffin Dunne stars in a dark comedy Film Noir homage 
involving a bored word processor who takes a bad luck odyssey on a 
lonesome evening...<br />
<br />
He leaves his lonely apartment and following the 
"rabbit" (Rosanna Arquette) into artsy Soho, New York, and is eventually
 accused of many things he didn't do: all the while connecting with 
various woman, each unluckier than the next. Martin Scorsese directs 
with fanatic precision, but it's Dunne's ride.<br />
<br />
Not only
 does he deliver some of the funniest glib humor ever, but as he's 
progressively unravelled his frustrated irritation turns to panicked 
desperation: making this one of the most entertaining performances in 
the history of cinema. And that's no exaggeration.<br />

<b>THE KING OF COMEDY:</b> For anyone who thinks Robert DeNiro and Martin Scorsese can only do thug
 movies together, this'll whack that theory for good: Robert DeNiro 
plays Rupert Pufkin, a fervently driven autograph seeker who, after 
"accidentally" spending ten minutes with his hero Jerry Lewis (playing Jerry Langford, a cross between himself and Johnny Carson) fantasizes 
about becoming just as famous: and then some.<br />
<br />
DeNiro's stubborn attempts
 to try reconnecting with Langford (to do standup on his show) at his 
plush office building are wonderfully awkward. Jerry's brilliance shines
 when he's acting within Pufkin's reveries. Meanwhile, the grossly engrossing Sandra Bernhart, who 
eventually becomes DeNiro's partner-in-crime... taking it upon herself 
to "seduce" the kidnapped Jerry in her condo... not only steals her 
scenes but owns them completely. And for Jerry Lewis, this is a dynamic performance. Not just playing "himself," as it were, an impatient perfectionist dropping the most of the physical gags that made him a celebrity, but Jerry's subtle moments of vulnerability during Pufkin's fantasies: reveries of being more famous than the famous talk show host.<br />

<b>GHOSTS OF MARS:</b> The first twenty minutes, as a group of soldiers ride a train into a 
desolate town on the Planet Mars to decipher who's decapitating people, 
is fairly decent, but then the action begins and there's simply too much
 of it.<br />
<br />
The bad guys are vampires resembling rejects from CATS, and most
 of the good guys, especially Jason Statham, become annoying and 
cliched...<br />
<br />
And although Ice Cube, as a badass prisoner... the red herring 
until the real menace is discovered... is horribly out of place, 
delivering his lines with no energy or realism, star Natasha Henstridge 
keeps the viewer interested, that is, if they choose to keep watching: 
which can be a chore.<br />

<b>HEARTBREAK RIDGE:</b> What's not to like about a Clint Eastwood movie where he's a gruff, 
no-nonsense Marine Sergeant sent back to his old platoon to whip the new
 recruits into shape?<br />
<br />
Well the recruits, for one, unrealistically acting
 like rebels in detention class instead of soldiers, especially Mario 
Van Peebles as a guitar-slinging rapper, one of the most annoying 
characters in film history. Although even he comes around eventually.<br />
<br />
But it's Eastwood alone who makes this DIRTY DOZENesque flick worth 
watching. Especially the boot camp scenes where he whips the jerks into shape, far exceeding the rather rushed military campaign finale. <br />

<b>CHEECH AND CHONG'S NICE DREAMS:</b> After filming most of this, Cheech & Chong's third film, 
director Tommy Chong shot more scenes involving goofball cops, bringing 
back Stacy Keach as Sgt. Stedanko, who was very important and downright hilariously serious the first 
time around.<br />
<br />
But Keach remains in his office, smoking pot that slowly 
turns him into a reptile while Peter Jason and Tim Rossovitch take over 
as the bumbling stakeout dudes. Their comedy doesn't compare to Keach 
and Mills Watson; and the dialogue between Cheech and Chong is limp and 
for the most part, unfunny ("Cops smell like donuts and coffee"), but 
there's a naturally laidback quality to their escapades.<br />
<br />
Although the 
last half, in a luxury hotel, plays out like a slapstick Blake Edwards 
film, and then the "peak" at a loony ward ends with a whimper, it's a 
semi-decent buzz overall.<br />

<b>VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED:</b> John Carpenter attempted a horribly hokey science-fiction tale,

Featuring the likable likes of Christopher SUPERMAN Reeves, Mark STAR WARS Hamill, Kirstie LOOK WHO'S TALKING Alley, Michael EDDIE AND THE CRUISERS Pare, and Linda CROC DUNDEE Kozlowski as residents 
of a town hit by a blackout that mysteriously impregnates the women, 
nine months later giving birth on the same night to a bevy of alien children who, a
 few years later, become albino megaminds.<br />
<br />
Despite the 
good cast, most of the acting is subpar, especially Mark Hamill who, as a
 preacher, delivers lines as if he too were possessed. The children, on 
the other hand, perform decently enough, but are held back by cheesy FX 
as their eyes radiate, taking away any real threat they might've had 
otherwise.<br />

<b>EARTHQUAKE:</b> A disaster film with everything, including tons of involving melodrama 
leading up to the big shake that has some great special effects even for
 the early seventies.<br />
<br />
Charlton Heston leads an all-star cast (but 
without too many cooks) as Los Angeles gets destroyed. The 
buildings that don't fall crumble during the aftershock and what's bad 
turns worse, and the suspense always sustains.<br />
<br />
One plot involving 
Marjoe Gortner as a demented store clerk/National Guardsman holding 
Victoria Principal (donning the worst wig in cinematic history) hostage 
adds some unintentionally fun camp to the overall catastrophe... A does SHAFT 
Richard Roundtree as a wannabe Evil Knievel and a cameo by Walter 
Matthau as a drunk.<br />
<br />
But it's George Kennedy, as a strong willed cop, who
 steals the show. And beware of the horrendous final five minutes, all but crumbling everything else.   <br />

<b>ATLANTIC CITY:</b> A thoroughly brilliant film centering on an aged caretaker, played by veteran icon Burt 
Lancaster, of an bed-ridden gangster's moll... He always wanted to be a thug but
 merely ran numbers, and still runs numbers, in a dying town called 
ATLANTIC CITY: on the verge of a revamp where the past will be erased

<br />
Add to that Susan Sarandon as a casino worker and her 
good-for-nothing husband, Robert Joy, who wanders into town with a bag 
of stolen cocaine: setting everything in motion. Lancaster and 
Sarrandon's friendship turned romance is very nice...<br />

But it's the chemistry 
between Lancaster and Joy, the wannabe mobster and the wannabe player, who gives the old-timer his first step in 
becoming a true heavy, that really shines, providing blunt humor and dark suspense.<br />

<b>THE NEW KIDS:</b> The first twenty minutes, as we're introduced to teenage sister and

muddled middle, somewhat. Directed by FRIDAY THE 13TH's Sean S. 
Cunninghan, these KIDS, in a cinematic sense, have a real identity crisis.  </div>

JASON BATEMAN IN THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU

While seeming like another AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY, where an eclectic lot reunites after the death of a beloved yet mysterious patriarch, both films are reminiscent inspirations of THE BIG CHILL… A collection of polar opposites gathered in one place where personalities collide, but in an ultimately optimistic, life-affirming sense… The usual. <br />
<br />
In SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK, Bradley Cooper went to the nuthouse after catching his wife having sex with another man – so let’s give Jason Bateman’s Judd Altman some credit… He keeps it all inside, and remains pretty cool, but is forced to spend a week with people he’d much rather avoid… An equal penance, maybe.<br />
<br />
Judd is the clean slate main character, allowing the other family members to shine and/or attempt stealing scenes, especially black sheep little (yet very tall) brother Philip, played by Adam Driver, who gets all the best lines but there’s something missing. His wild card is too forced, contrived. And Bateman relies on his usual glib reactions for every unpredictable element... <br />
<br />
Which also includes blunt advice from Tina Fey’s Wendy, his older sister and a somewhat wasted character throughout, given a quickie affair with a neighbor that amounts to little. Tina deserved better. And their famous author mom, Hillary, who has a brand new set of breasts and a secret revealed later on… Veteran actress Jane Fonda, in playing a woman too open-minded to everything around her, isn't very interesting. <br />
<br />
While the situations are often humorous, and the dialogue is natural and laidback, this particular reunion feels a bit staged, showcasing an American family the director assumes we know more than we actually do. Never given a chance to delve into these people beyond their lusty one-liners and worldly bantler, it’s like over-hearing a party next door instead of actually attending.

KEVIN SMITH DIRECTS MICHAEL PARKS & JUSTIN LONG IN 'TUSK'

“It’s such a fine line between stupid and, uh, clever,” said a member of the fictional heavy metal band Spinal Tap. And the same can be said of Kevin Smith’s TUSK, in which a snarky podcaster is trapped inside the rural manor of a crazy old man with an obsession for walruses!<br />
<br />
The first half is pretty damn great, aiming headlong for horror film parody… The doomed claustrophobic setting/supposedly nursing back to heath of MISERY combined with the mad scientist man-turning-into-a-creature agenda of SSSSSSS, pittig two polar opposites in the middle of nowhere, Canada…<br />
<br />
Justin Long’s Wallace delivers the Kevin Smith dialogue with perfection. Spouting one-liners and poking fun at just about everything, and then some, he’s more a brash Jason Lee than, say, the Ben Affleck style nice guy protagonist. Meanwhile his show partner, Teddy, played by a fully grown Haley Joel Osment, is the straight man of the group – and the least adventurous. With a cheating heart piercing Wallace's (way too) gorgeous girlfriend,  he makes a victim who reaps what he sows: although no one deserves what's eventually coming to him...<br />

Enter veteran character-actor Michael Parks as the "wise" old fella with many tales to tell, and he tells them wonderfully, proving Kevin Smith can still write nicely. <span class="caption">"Oh, it’s just an empty old bottle," Parks' Howard Howe says to the curious house guest. "But when 
combined with the story? Then it’s a powerful talisman — a doorway to 
another time and place. Perhaps a drawbridge to history." </span>Or when Howe confirms a lie about how his captor became ill by a deadly spider bite. 'The arachnid assailant? Well... a typical spider. A legion of legs, etc etc." Meanwhile Long bends a sarcastic ear to every overly-pronounced syllable, often lifted from literary quotes. Their conversations could have gone on forever: If only we remained indoors... <br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SA-JqGrtRXg/VByMJk6-3cI/AAAAAAAAjqY/vRXH1yULxB4/s1600/depp.PNG" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-SA-JqGrtRXg/VByMJk6-3cI/AAAAAAAAjqY/vRXH1yULxB4/s200/depp.PNG" width="199" /></a>Sadly, TUSK hits a massive wall with the introduction of Johnny Depp’s would-be rescuer, Guy Lapointe. A combination of Dr. Livingston, Inspector Clouseau and Columbo, Depp lets loose a 15-minute string that hardly progresses the story at hand, although he does let us in on the backstory on the lunatic we'd rather spend more time with. <br />
<br />
But it isn't Johnny's fault, entirely. Any character intruding upon such offbeat potential would have done the same amount of damage. But one gets the feeling indie director Smith was getting his big name money’s worth with this prolonged “surprise” role (Smith and Depp's daughter's play store employees here and in the semi-sequel YOGA HOSERS) – damn shame all that cotton candy had to ruin such a wonderfully devious Fun House/Freak Show ride, which is still an intriguing, crazy labor-of-love freak show nonetheless. <br />

When you're watching a movie, especially an older one, it's fun to spot a marquee in the background, which, for pop culture fanatics, is like archeology... Marquee hunting provides a backdrop into pop culture history, serving as a time capsule within a time capsule: The best marquees to discover are the real thing, yet there are other examples where they're created specifically for the film... Both types are included in the list below...<br />

<b>HALLOWEEN 3: SEASON OF THE WITCH IN BROADWAY DANNY ROSE:</b> Here's a marque spotting with some significance of the romantic 
nature, and involves robbing the cradle... Anyone who's seen Woody Allen's MANHATTAN will remember that 
Mariel Hemingway played a seventeen-year old girl that Woody dates...<br />
<br />
The character Hemingway plays is named Tracy, and her subtle performance
 garnered Ernest Hemingway's granddaughter a best supporting Oscar nomination. But 
this isn't about Mariel, it's about another young, beautiful actress 
named Stacey Nelkin, whom the MANHATTAN ingenue Tracy is based on...<br />
<br />
Woody, in his forties, had an affair with the sixteen-year old Nelkin, 
who'd later star in HALLOWEEN III: THE SEASON OF THE WITCH with Tom 
Atkins... And as Allen crosses the street in his subtle masterpiece, 
BROADWAY DANNY ROSE, you can see the marquee of his ex-girlfriend's new 
flick (this being 1983) along with Larry Cohen's monster movie Q: THE 
WINGED SERPENT, snake logo and all.<br />

<b>STAYING ALIVE IN REPO MAN:</b> A marquee for SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER sequel STAYING ALIVE is visible... Very ironic mixing two opposite genres... <br />
<br />
REPO MAN is a movie about a punk rocker, and STAYING ALIVE is not only a sequel to a disco staple, but is the most famous disco song: and punkers detest that kind of music... <br />

out, before any of the other stuff, is the Pepsodent Advertisment with 
the girl on the swing. (For nostalgia's sake, Peter Jackson even used it in his reboot.)<br />

<b>RANDOM MOVIE POSTERS IN SUMMER RENTAL:</b> Okay so we'll finish up with posters inside the theaters. Sure, they're not marquees, but it's all in the same family... Speaking of which, the 1985 family comedy SUMMER RENTAL was John Candy's first starring 
role...<br />
<br />
His daughter, played by the lovely Kerri Green 
from LUCAS and THE GOONIES, stands in a movie theater where posters of 
UNCOMMON VALOR, 
FOOTLOOSE, DRAGONSLAYER... And outside the theater, a poster of TOP SECRET! (and again 
FOOTLOOSE) can be spotted in the rain. And two connections for Candy's RENTAL wife, Karen Austin, who was on NIGHT COURT with John Larroquette, and John was in STRIPES with Candy.<br />
