Film fans like Vince Vaughn because, well, he's likable. Especially when he slips into the fast-talking, misguided yet well-meaning, man-boy mentor persona many moviegoers know and love. Despite venturing into darker comedies and more dramatic roles, so far Vince seems most comfortable and… Continued

It's the End of the World as Hollywood Knows It ... But They Feel Fine?

Is it possible to love movies and hate Hollywood? Abso-freakin'-lutely. In fact, I don't see how there's any other option for the true movie lover.

The film had opened on Oct. 8, 1999 (10 years ago this week), but only in limited release, playing on no more than 50 screens nationwide… Continued

Another Take: Capitalism Worth a Look

Michael Moore's "Capitalism: A Love Story" (2009) - Overture Films

The last time Michael Moore made noise he was tackling health care. It was a weighty issue, and like him or not his film Sicko is a big reason why the health care discussion heated up and we're still debating it today. This time, with Capitalism: A Love Story, Moore is looking to take the whole damn… Continued
