Film Review: ‘The Soloist’

April 24, 2009 by Kathryn Schroeder

Robert Downey Jr. and Jamie Foxx in The Soloist

The Soloist is a truly wonderful film that will make you believe in the power of friendship and that acceptance above all else is the greatest gift one can give to another. The performances are absolutely fantastic and it moves at such a pace you only become more and more engrossed in the story as time passes. And for those who have a love for classical music, or the ability to appreciate the beauty in it, you will only dive further into the wonder and the power it holds.

Film Review: ‘Duplicity’

April 1, 2009 by Kathryn Schroeder

Julia Roberts and Clive Owen in Duplicity

The charming smile of Clive Owen (Ray) could not save Duplicity or the star persona of Julia Roberts (Claire). It is quite frankly, a horrible mess.

Film Review: ‘Slumdog Millionaire’

March 16, 2009 by Kathryn Schroeder

Dev Patel in Slumdog Millionaire

As Slumdog Millionaire weaves between the present and the past you are fully engaged in the character’s life experiences and how through them he is able to answer his questions correctly to win the grand prize. The movie moves with perfect momentum and with such intimacy you never feel you are watching a film but instead, you are experiencing it; the triumphs, the tragedy and the comedy that lives within the story.

Film Review: ‘Sunshine Cleaning’

March 15, 2009 by Kathryn Schroeder

Amy Adams and Emily Blunt in Sunshine Cleaning.

If you are seeking a film that is heartfelt, touching, and wholly believable, Sunshine Cleaning is it. The characters are full of range and emotion, and meld together on screen with a simplistic ease. Sunshine Cleaning is a story about family, about overcoming ones past, finding your future and accepting who you are and the choices you have made. More importantly, it will make you feel something while bringing you laughter and possibly a few tears.

Film Review: ‘Crossing Over’

March 4, 2009 by Kathryn Schroeder

Harrison Ford in Crossing Over

With great relief, Crossing Over moves away from the standard immigration story (Mexico and the U.S.) and portrays a variety of people from different Nations attempting to become nationalized in the United States.
