Lost in Paris is a flight of whimsical fancy; a comedy fueled by meticulously choreographed humor. If old-fashioned slapstick isn’t your thing, this may not be for you. Some of the jokes are brilliant, such as one in which lead actress Fiona...

Lost in Space is New Line Cinema's bid to enter the space franchise race. Undoubtedly impressed by the long-term, consistent profitability of Paramount's Star Trek movies (the ninth of which will be released this year), New Line has decided to res...
