"In addition to winning Best Picture (and seven other awards) at the Oscars last week, Slumdog Millionaire passed a major box office benchmark. It has now grossed more than $100 million in the U.S., which is pretty astonishing for a film with one-third of its dialogue in a foreign language. But is Slumdog’s popularity a one-shot in terms of its audience’s interest in India, or are moviegoers actually now more curious about the nation and its own films? Some websites are simplifying the question of whether or not Slumdog will be a gateway film with polls asking if American moviegoers will now “go Bollywood” (40% of Cinematical readers flat out answered, “no.”), which is rather silly since Danny Boyle’s movie bears no resemblance to the majority of Bollywood pictures. In fact, Americans have in the past received far "

"For me, the romantic comedy Top 10 is the most solid compilation of the group. Not only is the rom com a clearly established American film genre, but the individual selections are all eminently reasonable and defensible. This is not to suggest that I wouldn't make alternate suggestions, because I would, but I understand the reasoning behind each of the ten films on the AFI's list. And I don't have any strong contrarian or idiosyncratic preferences that would lead me to tilt at a windmill like arguing against the selection of, say, City Lights (1931) as number one, or its inclusion on the list altogether. The one film on this list that I do question is Sleepless in Seattle (1993). There isn't anything outstandingly wrong with the film, but it isn't especially remarkable, either. It doesn't represent a particularly clever or innovative take on the genre. It doesn't push any boundaries. It doesn't mark any point in the development of the form (indeed, I would argue that it is fairly t ... "

"After a second-half career slump, director Rob Reiner has taken great pains to critic-proof his latest film, “The Bucket List.” “I'll pair two of America's best-loved elder actors, give them oddly endearing eccentricities, saddle them with a terminal illness, but show how they learn to LOVE LIFE!!!” he says (exclamation marks are a necessity here).So when a critic attempts to lay into the film for being rote and pandering, he or she will be derided for besmirching the actors' good names and callously drubbing those dealing with cancer.Well, bring on the hate mail. This is “Wild Hogs for the septuagenarian set (“Mild Hogs?” “Terminal Hogs?”), and it is a TV dinner of a film – everything spooned out in carefully measured proportions, pre-packaged and cold, without a hint of spice or surprise.The two ailing leads are a cantankerous old wisecracking coot and a gentle, grounded guru who are both diagnosed with the b ...

"To all of you who saw that embarrassing, border-line incomprehensible and hastily removed post from a while ago - I'm sorry for being weird about it and I hope this serves as an explanation of some kind. Officially "breaking up"(so-to-speak) a month after the fact is a weird, weird thing. But, good ultimately. i guess. No. It's good. It's completely terrifying and hard, but good and necessary. Closure is truly an amazing feeling, I've found. It was great to talk, and learn about scary new jobs and new long-distance boyfriends and other things I would have not missed out on knowing about if we weren't being so stupid. We talked everything out, and I could tell that it was a good conversation because I lost my appetite and wanted to cry. driving home and listening to a mix* I later found out was made for her by the new boyfriend before he headed home to LA, I kind of did a little. These were straight up hardcore over-the-top "I love you" jams that completely tore me up late 2004. ... "

"Danny Boyle’s latest, Slumdog Millionaire, hit theaters this week. The whimsical up-tempo romance is quickly becoming a critical darling, with decent prospects for awards season. The funny thing is, we hated it. We take a look back at Boyle’s work, specifically A Life Less Ordinary. That film, far from a critical darling, has essentially the same core belief as Slumdog, that the combination of love, destiny, and tons of money will never let you down. Karina offers more sobering commentary on the fallacies of the typical on-screen romance by comparing An Affair to Remember and "

"One thing that makes Once wonderful is how prickly The Guy (Glen Hansard) is to The Girl (Markéta Irglová) when they first meet.Writer-director John Carney can be read as playing with the “meet cute” convention of romantic comedy in the initial scenes between Guy and Girl. The first subversion of form is in how the two encounter each other. Classically, circumstances contrive or conspire to bring the romantic protagonists together and into close, intimate contact by, say, making them share the last seat on a bus or the trunk of a car. Here nothing in particular brings Guy and Girl together. She notices him in the course of daily life and then, in a further break with convention, makes an affirmative choice to approach him. There is no fated coincidence at work (I do think that the happenstance of the vacuum cleaner is a nod and wink at the idea that the two leads are “meant to be”). Typically, upon meeting, romantic leads will undergo an alchem ... "
