Catch Me if You Can is the closest director Steven Spielberg has come to making a comedy since 1979, when his 1941 bombed at the box office. A jaunty caper movie inspired by real-life events, Catch Me if You Can never takes itself or its subjects ...

Warning: This review contains spoilers throughout - at least insofar as a documentary can be spoiled. There's a common belief that about 75% of the "hot women" engaged in e-mail relationships, chatroom liaisons, and other associated on-line beha...

For 2019’s Big Holiday Musical Extravaganza, Hollywood has gone all the way back to 1981 to choose the source material. The concept of making a motion picture version of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s immensely successful stage play, Cats, has both...

New Line Cinema faces a monumental feat in attempting to market The Cell, a decidedly non-mainstream serial killer thriller that has the sensibilities of an art film. Visually enticing and intellectually demanding, The Cell takes viewers deep into...
