Mark Wahlberg
Reviews Featuring Mark Wahlberg
A film that shows the clues to a mystery are right in front of you; and the right answers the simplest ones.
A workmanlike heist flick with some funny lines and some good (if brief) chases, but it is ultimately hampered by comparing itself to the original, better 'The Italian Job'. Probably the best way to enjoy this film is to ignore its title, and to think of it as an entirely different film with occasional sequences that merely pay homage to Michael Caine's cockney masterpiece.
This intelligent and quirky trip beneath the surface of human existence is either a profound marvel or a meaningless absurdity but either way, thats life, and aint life funny!
Nature turns mean, but not as mean as she could be in an R-rated movie, in this uneven wanna-be horror film.
Simply giving a guy a sad back-story doesn't make him an interesting character, especially in a slow action movie where the action is dull and the story stops mattering five minutes in.
Date Night doesnt break any new ground, it doesnt offer any sort of existential treatise on life, and it doesnt succumb to crude humorit simply is funny.
The Lovely Bones is, as a movie not living in the shadow of the book upon which it is based, unique and engaging, and full of a very frightening Stanley Tucci.
A real knockout. A cut above the rest. Punching above it's weight. Has a fighting chance at the Oscars. In summary, it's pretty good.
For once it's a remake of an excellent international offering that seems worth it thanks to Scorsese doing what he does best and a wonderful ensemble cast.
Both novel and worn this comedy from the Family Guy's Seth MacFarlane is just too predictable and unfunny.
