Robert Pattinson Is a New Kind of Movie Star: The Anti-Tom Cruise (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In the last few years (ever since “Top Gun: Maverick”), Tom Cruise has often been hailed as The Last Movie Star. He’s certainly the gold standard, though it might be appropriate to add Brad Pitt and Julia Roberts to that category too. All three feel like The Last Movie Stars — though what I’m really saying, of course, is that they’re the last movie stars to come out of the monoculture. That’s why all three are monostars. You still feel that any of them, in the right light, can own the screen and
‘Digger’ Review: As a Texas Oil Tycoon, Tom Cruise Goes Over the Top in Alejandro G. Iñárritu’s Bombastically Self-Important Satire (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It wants to be the "Dr. Strangelove" of climate change. But instead of laughs, it has in-your-face overacting and a didactic disaster scenario. “Digger,” starring Tom Cruise as a Texas oil tycoon who unleashes forces even more powerful than himself, is a movie that thinks it’s delivering something bigger than a mere message; it thinks it’s bringing us the word. Cruise, under pounds of jowly make-up and thinning disheveled white hair, plays Digger Rockwell, an ancient Southern fossil-fuel titan w
‘Darlene Love: I Know Where I’ve Been’ Review: A Stirring Pop Doc Traces How the Great Singer of ‘He’s a Rebel’ and Other Classics Reclaimed Her Name (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Phil Spector made her name...and erased it. Barry Avrich's film tells Darlene Love's extraordinary story and pays tribute to her soul-stirring talent. “Darlene Love: I Know Where I’ve Been” is a documentary about one of the greatest singers in the history of pop music, but it’s also a stunning meditation on the issue of identity in pop. Darlene Love recorded her most defining songs in the early ’60s, when she was part of the Phil Spector hit factory. She led a group called the Blossoms, who Spec
‘Pretenders’ Review: A Superb Portrait of Chrissie Hynde and Her Legendary Band Captures Their Incandescence…and Tragedy (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Joss Crowley's film is close to a definitive chronicle, as it explores the paradox of Chrissie Hynde: the smoldering punk who was also the most majestic songwriter of that scene. As a rock star, Chrissie Hynde has always been a bit of a paradox — gnarly but cerebral, ferocious yet guarded. And “Pretenders,” Joss Crowley’s sensational and revealing music documentary, shows you that there was a paradox — a glorious one — built into her band. Formed in London in 1978, the Pretenders emerged from th
‘Misty Green’ Review: Chris Rock Tells the Story of a Party-Girl Actress, Brilliantly Played by Rosalind Eleazar, in The Best Movie About Hollywood in Years (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In his first movie since "Top Five," Rock confirms he's a major filmmaker. The title character of “Misty Green,” Chris Rock’s explosively entertaining, savagely authentic drama about life in the Hollywood of today, is a television actress who had a moment — in fact, she was close to the top of the heap. But that was then and this is now. Misty, played by Rosalind Eleazar (“Slow Horses”) with doleful charisma and a casual fury, is in her late 30s. She’s a vivid and acclaimed actress and singer wh
