"Taken is the most fun I've had in the theater in awhile. Liam Neeson ("The Other Man") plays a retired FBI agent who goes on a rampage when his daughter is kidnapped. The film has alot of flaws if you focus on logistics too much. Just let go and enjoy the ride.A Place in the Sun stars Montgomery Clift ("The Defector") as a poor boy trying to make a place for himself. He gets a chance at the upper crust with a young Elizabeth Taylor ("The Flintstones"), but, sadly, he's already knocked up his common girlfriend, Shelly Winters ("La Bomba"). It's enough to drive a man to murder. An interesting story, but I didn't love any of the characters. Supposedly based on actual events, it won six Oscars including Screenplay.In Heaven Can Wait, Warren Beatty ("Town & Country") plays a football player who's taken before his time. So the powers that be put him into the body of a self-centered millionaire and hijinks ensue. The story is consistently amusing, but rarely laugh-out-loud funny. Enjo ... "

"For what it’s worth, it’s perfect casting, but there’s still something surprising about the news that Dakota Fanning is taking on the starring role in Floria Sigismondi’s film about ’70s girl group The Runaways. As 15-year-old rocker Cherie Currie, Fanning will continue to bait stories about how quickly she’s growing up, though really the part seems both ironic and appropriate for the former child actress. Currie, who fronted the band wearing a lot of low-cut tops and lingerie on the outside (before Madonna!), may have grown up too fast thanks to her sexualized image and early abuses of drugs and alcohol, but just because Fanning will play the part doesn’t mean she’ll be similarly thrust into adulthood. If anything, her masquerade as Currie will be more effective if audiences recognize that Fanning is still a little girl. Fanning remains on track to be her generation’s Jodie Foster (who, interestingly enough, costarred with Currie in the movie

"This rip-off of the popular NBC series misses the mark in virtually every aspect of the film. The special effects soon become tiresome and almost laughable. The acting is weak, leaving the viewer apathetic about the protagonsts' fate. The normally likeable Dakota Fanning is miscast as a supposedly sharp-tongued and cynical clairvoyant. Even an injection of color and music (no dout in an attempt to achieve a "music video" feel) is a waste of time. The plot is transparent, the acting borders on comic. Unless you like every sci-fi move that you see, save your money and avoid this one. For more info, check my other review at: http://blog.syracuse.com/movie reviews/ "

"When I first saw the official trailer on appletv, I thought to myself: '"Dakota Fanning has finally broken off her usual roles as a child, or as a weird child like the movie Hide and Seek; she looks so big!" And then I glazed upon the visual effects, which seemed very convincing and cool for sci-fi affcicionados like myself, and I thought it would be a great movie, like Matrix. But overall, when I watched the first 10 minutes, it became slow...And believe me I tried to love this movie in any way I could, but the plot and the way things were supposed to combine with each other just was plain messy.

"In a turn of events that recalls an infamous Sundance story of yore, Harvey Weinstein is insisting that The Weinstein Co. locked down rights to Push (not that one, the Sundance one) before Lionsgate made its deal. Fortunately for everyone in Park City, this fight waited until after the film festival ended and ol’ Harv was nowhere near making a scene in a restaurant. Instead, the rights tug-of-war is going to the courts (on both coasts), making everyone think this is the indie version of the Watchmen battle and giving the blogs something more interesting than actors’ rants and masquerades to comment on: “Harvey Weinstein constantly pleads poverty on behalf of his The Weinstein Co so that filmmakers will dig into their own wallets for re-shoots that he demands yet won’t fund. But suddenly "

"Are you one of the many sci-fi and comic book geeks who’d be more interested in Push were it not for Dakota Fanning? Sure, the precocious child star is now a teen actress (she’s about to turn 15), yet that probably makes you even more worried about her appearance in the movie. But what can you do? She’s literally everywhere this week – voicing the title character in the animated Coraline and starring in two new video releases, Hounddog and The Secret Life of Bees, both of which were released Tuesday. In the tradition of child actors continuing careers into adolescence, it’s only a matter of time before she ruins a movie that would have been better without her. We’ll have to wait until this weekend to see if that time is now, with Push, but in the meantime let’s take a look at some of the past offenders in this tradition. Most of the following "

"1:53 - PUSH Q&A Question #1: The first question is: “Do those screams affects the psychics? We saw them killing the fish, but does it have any effect on people with powers?” Paul McGuigan explained that it’s just an ability that interferes with hearing, and throws people off. It doesn’t damage the psychics. He’s now explaining the other kinds of powers… “Sniffers” can touch items and “see the history” of them, like a glass in a bar. Shifters can change the shape of things for a short amount of time. A person who’s a “Stitch” can heal you, and “Wipers” can erase your minds. 1:45 - PUSH clip In the clip, Dakota Fanning and Chris Evans share some noodles in a Japanese restaurant, and this is the first time I’ve had a chance to see that….not a child, not a teenager Dakota Fanning. And it’s bizarre. She’s a “Watcher” who can read people’s minds and see into the near future, and she’s trying to get Nick to help her rescue Camilla. When she has her flashes, it’s like watching a strange s ... "
