Movie Review: The Carter (New Documentary Redefines the Notion of a Mainstream Pop Star)

/Film -- Wow. After watching The Carter, the new all-access documentary on Lil Wayne, one might consider recommending it as the best doc about a hip hop icon ever. The problem with this superlative lies in its limitation. Similar to labeling Lil Wayne a rappereven the best rapper alive as many professand leaving it at that, labeling this a great hip hop doc restricts it to the confines of a niche or genre ...     11-22

The Twilight Saga: New Moon Movie Review: Let the Wrong One In

/Film -- Every fifth or sixth word in my notes on The Twilight Saga: New Moon is mope. If theres a more listless, disengaged piece of film this year I hope I dont have to suffer it. (Actually, there is, and I did right after writing this. The guys flipside to New Moon: Ninja Assassin.) This second Twilight film is not a dreamy, thorny gothic romance; it is a stereotypical, unimaginative caricature of depre...     11-21

This Week In Trailers: Jump, The Slammin’ Salmon, Kandahar, My Tehran For Sale, Bodyguards and Assassins

/Film -- Trailers are an under-appreciated art form insofar that many times they’re seen as vehicles for showing footage, explaining films away, or showing their hand about what moviegoers can expect. Foreign, domestic, independent, big budget: I celebrate all levels of trailers and hopefully this column will satisfactorily give you a baseline of what beta wave I’m operating on, because what better way to ...     11-21

Letters to Juliet Movie Trailer: This Time, You Really Have Seen the Whole Movie

/Film -- The common trailer complaint is that they always give too much of the movie away. Which is funny, because thats actually not the case nearly as often as youd think, and after being able to compare many movies and their trailers, I would have long ago hoped that people would realize the truth of it. In the case of Letters to Juliet, however, things are different. When I saw the trailer in front of ...     11-21
