Josh Brolin
Reviews Featuring Josh Brolin
This indie-by-numbers affair is as cold and torpid as the fish that lurk beneath an icy lake.
Faced with the choice between oh-so-slight comedy or trashy melodrama, some viewers might just prefer a different film.
Milk is, undoubtedly a must-see if youre looking for a lesson in the gay rights movement, but more importantly, its a beautifully crafted film about a man we should know more about.
Performances go a long way to raise this presidential portrait up into something entertaining, but theres not really anything all that memorable except some great performances by James Brolin, Richard Dreyfuss, and James Cromwell.
Take a crime drama, add some modern-day Western-ness, throw in some dark humor, and watch some perfectly cast actors act their socks off, and youve got the most deserving Best Picture winner in years.
It's a mess, and Megan Fox is pretty much pointless, but Jonah Hex has its moments of B-movie Western fun.
The Coen Brothers surpass the original thanks to their trademark humour, gorgeous cinematography and a host of excellent performances.
