Jeff Bridges deserves his Best Actor Oscar, but, as a whole, Crazy Heart is just OK, though its elevated because of his performance.
The Lovely Bones
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.
The Perfect Game
Dont run out and plunk down your hard-earned bucks for it, but if you want a pleasantly forgettable afternoon of harmless, melodramatic sweetness, go to a matinee with the family.
Furry Vengeance
Dont let anything that might make this movie look appealing fool youeven Brendan Fraser cant save this zoo.
A Nightmare on Elm Street
Remakes arent always a bad thing, but the lack of charisma from the leads and the script that feels like it was written by six different people who never met converged to make this a mostly bad thing with a few good bits.
The Back-up Plan
Jennifer Lopez is acceptable, and there are a few good laughs, but overall a bland and forgettable romantic comedy.
