Brittany Murphy
Reviews Featuring Brittany Murphy
The kind of film most of us thought Hollywood had gotten out of its system during the 80s.
Fine tension-filled coming-of-age drama with Eminem turning in a commendable performance in his first major role. This film will even appeal to many who have no knowledge of or interest in the rap lifestyle.
'Spun' is a frenetically paced trip taken by people going nowhere fast, caught on a web of their own spinning. More subtle, but no less devastating, than 'Requiem for a Dream' in its depiction of pharmaceutical crash-and-burn, it lets the characters' tragic trajectories speak for themselves instead of preaching an anti-drug gospel from some elevated pulpit. A sleazily compelling insider's view into the nihilistic, self-deluding world of crystal meths.
An ever-so-slightly feeble fam-com to end the year on a bit of a dull note.
If you liked 'Maid in Manhattan', then 'Uptown Girls' is just what you deserve.
Much like the non-appearing object of the title, this is a film you shouldnt even consider looking at.
Its packed to the gunnels with sex and violence but, after all the hype, inflicting this level of disappointment upon us is the biggest sin of all.
A punchy, cleverly-written girlie gambol with a heart of gold and a cast primed and ready for the big time.
