    REVIEW: ‘Coyote vs. Acme’ (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The new screwball comedy Coyote vs. Acme isn't actually new. It was finished three years ago. And the fact that you can now go see it this weekend at your local movie theater is pretty close to a miracle. I'll get to that in a minute, but first, let me just say that Coyote vs. Acme is pretty close to a miracle in its own right. Based on a one-joke New Yorker humor piece by Ian Frazier published 36 years ago, Coyote vs. Acme tosses Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, Erin Brockovich, The Verdict, A Few Goo

    REVIEW: 'The End of Oak Street' (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The new Anne Hathaway movie, The End of Oak Street, is an exercise in Larry Tate-ism. To explain to those who aren't 147 years old like me, Larry Tate was the advertising executive on the sitcom Bewitched whose opinions would shift drastically depending on what his client would say. When his underling Darrin came up with a slogan, Larry Tate would say, "That's ridiculous." Then the client would say, "I find it intriguing." At which point Larry Tate would respond, "Exactly! A ridiculously intrigu

    REVIEW: 'Tony' (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    There is a Canadian director no one has ever heard of, and just in the past three years he has made three of the most interesting and unexpected pictures of our time. His name is Matt Johnson, and the three movies are Blackberry from 2023, Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie from 2025, and Tony, just out this weekend. Blackberry, which I thought was the best film of that year, tells the story of Research in Motion, the firm that made the Blackberry mobile device. A modest picture made for $5 mi

    REVIEW: ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    It's now unquestionable: Spider-Man is the most popular character in the history of pop culture. Peter Parker and his adventures have resulted in the sale of more than 360 million comic books since his creation in 1962. In 2002, the original Spider-Man picture with Tobey Maguire was the first movie to make $100 million in its first weekend in America. Brand New Day, the fourth to star Tom Holland since Homecoming in 2017, followed in the original's footsteps by setting the all-time domestic week

    REVIEW: ‘The Odyssey’ (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Christopher Nolan does something extraordinarily nervy in his overwhelming new film, The Odyssey. He has made as faithful a version of Homer’s poem as could possibly be made in the course of a three-hour running time—all while turning its worldview inside out. The thing is, detail by detail, The Odyssey is not just faithful, it’s absolutely inspired. It’s possible that this is the single-greatest cinematic adaptation of a great work of literature in the 113-year history of the motion picture as
