A whole bunch of movies flew into theaters like the titular owls in ‘Legend of the Guardians’ this weekend, but only one could take home the top spot – and it wasn’t the owls. Instead, Michael Douglas’ serp...

Take heart, America! A bunch of worthy movies open this weekend. Besides the above-average ‘Wall Street’ sequel, there are mighty owls for the whole family, and a romantic comedy that has a bright, silver, ’80s-p...
As I’ve stated, time and time again, the women of ‘Mad Men’ are way more interesting than the titular bad boys. As great as last week’s introspective Don episode was, we got a lot more time with the women t...
There’s a reason that everyone has been renting or buying or Netflix-ing the shit out of the original ‘Wall Street‘ in preparation for the sequel. For all its zeitgeist-capturing zest, it’s a remarkably con...

This week’s episode of ‘Mad Men’ – which many are proclaiming to be, in the words of Comic Book Guy, the “Best. Episode. Ever.” – is a delayed gratification hour of television whose brilliance doesn...
Despite the holiday, not too many people bothered to show up at the multiplexes this weekend. Instead, they chose to take part in those time-honored American traditions of spending time with the family, enjoying outdoor cook-outs,...
