On the surface, it's easy to assume that Sirens is a lighthearted erotic romp through the secluded wilds of Australia's Blue Mountains in the 1930s. Like in some modern-day garden of Eden, there are snakes, ripening fruit, and plenty of naked bodi...

The Sitter fits neatly into the mediocre, generic comedy category - a classification reserved for films that are neither funny enough nor raunchy enough nor smart enough to do more than consume time and dull the senses. One could argue that these a...

The scenery is great, the actors are appealing, and the special effects are suitably low-key… all that's missing from Ivan Reitman's Six Days, Seven Nights is a plot with a moment's originality. This movie takes chunks from Romancing the Sto...
