"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 "

"On October 28 the world will plunge into an irradiated nightmare, littered with the wreckage of civilization, overrun by savage super mutants. Or, my world will be, anyway. Next month is when the hotly anticipated new video game Fallout 3 will be released. It’s been over a decade since the first Fallout, a now classic post-apocalyptic role-playing game. How has the franchise maintained such a devoted fan base? Simple: great story, great characters, great setting, and killer cinematics. The games have always been deeply indebted to post-apocalyptic cinema. The opening sequence of the first game is almost identical to the one in The Road Warrior, and the similarities don’t end there. As the Max Payne movie is (hopefully) about to prove, there is an elegant solution to the problem of videogame movies sucking: make movies about games that are already steeped in cinematic influence. In other words, a "

"Over the weekend, Wanted had a 100% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.com. It’s since gone down to 81% (at the time of this writing — and with top critics it’s down to 67%), though that’s still pretty good for a movie that initially looked like just another Matrix knockoff. But will the good reviews make for great box office? Last night, while viewing the latest trailer in a theater with some friends, I mentioned that Wanted was receiving great reviews. Nobody believed me at first, and then they didn’t care; they still thought it looked terrible. Good reviews rarely help an action movie, and bad reviews rarely deter audiences from seeing them. However, if we look at the top 5 most critically acclaimed action movies, it’s clear that people do often prefer a good action film to a bad one. The next 5, on the other hand… The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (2003) Rotten Tomatoes’ “T-Meter” score: 94% (top critics: 98%) All Time Domestic Box Office Rank: #9 ($377 million) Sam "

"Over at the AMC blog SciFi Scanner, there’s a post about the accuracy of Jason Bourne’s condition in the Bourne movies. At the World Science Festival, held last weekend in NYC, there was a panel titled The Brain and Bourne: Neuroscience in the Bourne Trilogy that featured Bourne Identity director Doug Liman and psychiatrist and neuroscientist Giulio Tononi. And according to Tononi, the sort of amnesia that Bourne suffers from, which includes the ability to retain certain skills despite an overall loss of memory, is rare but does exist. Interesting, but does it really matter? Nobody making the Bourne movies seems to have known its accuracy, and they probably didn’t care. And neither do most moviegoers. Amnesia is simply a good plot device for movies, and oftentimes they’re more ab "

"I have been making the case for Doug Liman for years now. I’d even recently given up the claim that I completely despise Swingers (it’s mostly the neo-swing soundtrack I hate). I constantly argued that his The Bourne Identity was better than Greengrass’ The Bourne Supremacy — in the end Greengrass’ The Bourne Ultimatum turned out ultimately the best — and still continue promoting the genius of Mr. and Mrs. Smith (I watched it with a newbie just the other night, and that person was convinced). But now, I am on the fence about Jumper, which I haven’t yet seen and which arrived in theaters today. I can’t decide whether to bother seeing it. The movie certainly looks stupid. I’ll admit it. Yet this is where my Liman defending came about in the past year, especially recently, as its release got closer. Every time the trailer or TV ad came on the screen, someone would turn to me and say it looks really stupid. Or I would overhear a similar s "

"First the caveats: (a) I really enjoyed The Bourne Identity and (b) I really enjoyed the novels upon which these movies are (very loosely) based. That said, I also loved The Bourne Supremacy. Matt Damon may not play the same character that Robert Ludlum penned, but his Jason Bourne is just as interesting. The action is frenetic and the use of moving cameras gives the viewer a sense of being in the midst of the action. I love that, as in the first film, the car chase utilizes a beat-up "clunker" rather than a high-powered sports car. Similarly, many of Bourne's actions feel as if they were scripted by someone that has at least some clue as to espionage tradecraft (although a few errors, such as having a taxi take him directly to a particular address, were glaring). Without offering any spoilers, it is worth noting that one of the two surprises in the film was actually quite surprising. And I like being surprised in an espionage genre movie, because it is, frankly, quit ... "

"Another excellent installment to the trilogy. In hindsight I appreciated this film just as much, because it was ultimately about Bourne coming to grips with the consequences of his past actions as an agent for Treadstone. The atmospherism toward the end helped with that. It wasn't like the first one, which was more about creating a variety of conflicts that we want Jason to pull through in the end. A brilliant sequel.

"I don't really feel like writing reviews today. But I'm getting so far behind that I have to do it. They're going to be short though.When I heard that Russell Crowe ("A Good Year") and Christian Bale ("Rescue Dawn") were going to be in the same movie, I almost passed out. It's just too much goodness for one screen to hold. But 3:10 to Yuma offered much more than just eye candy. Keep in mind that I have not seen the original film. The story was tight. We feel Bale's despair in being a disappointment to his son. We see why people become infatuated with Crowe's villain even though he is terribly evil. The score was awesome. And I don't usually notice a score. There's some good action. Plus, the other big bad guy rocked. I do love a good bad guy. And Ben Foster ("X-Men: The Last Stand") is one of my favorite younger actors. I can't wait for him to bust out.Smiles of a Summer night is my first Ingmar Bergman ("Saraba ... "

"Not as good as the first one, but it's still good in different category: more like a normal agent action thriller. Good action scenes, great car chases, good ending. The confused man from part 1 is almost gone now, but there's enough of him left (or missing) to add a nice human touch. "

Entertaining, but not my favorite

"As I settled into my chair at the movie theatre last night, I was overflowing with anticipation for what I was about to see. The film began and there was the hero, Jason Bourne. Unfortunately for me, The Bourne Ultimatum did not live up to the hype machine that surrounded it. While I thoroughly enjoyed the film, it was my least favorite of the Bourne series. This film flowed solely on action sequences and chase scenes. Okay, we get it, Jason Bourne is can not be caught or defeated, but what's the point? In the first film, Jason Bourne was responsible for himself and a woman, both who he had to protect. In the Bourne Supremacy, Bourne was out to avenge the death of that woman. So what is the point in Ultimatum? Jason Bourne wants to know who he is. That's it?! Without giving away the film, it doesn't matter if Bourne was or wasn't satsified with what he found out, because I wasn't! The film was still thrilling and creative, but it seemed like a poor extension of ... "
