Shopgirl

From the very start of the movie when Steve Martin begins his lame narrative, I could tell I would not like the movie but to what extent I had no idea. Martin narrates the death out of the movie--spelling out every... Full review

This movie was extremely boring & slow. I was so looking forward to it being over. The narrative was cheesy, the acting was poor, there was absolutely no plot and the characters were just plain annoying. And this was supposed to... Full review

Clarie Daines was fantastic --her acting was oscar worthy. Steve Martin needed to be a bit more sexual his acting was a bit lame--Even though that was suppose to be the character part it would have been better if it appeared... Full review

This movie was slow in the sense that it grabbed your attention through your heart and mind instead of crazy plots and action. I loved it, but only once I got to the end and everything gelled. It's a great date... Full review

This is one of the WORST movies ive ever seen. Who thought of this storyline???? It was boring, no drama or action, and the events were poorly connected. Usually, Steve Martin is energetic like in Cheaper by the Dozen 2 but... Full review

The whole movie was like watching a photography gallery. The camera work was very artistic, however, the movie dragged and dragged. Every scene, move, or dialogue was really slow. This movie could have been much shorter. Because it was not exciting,... Full review

Martin-lovers expecting the white-maned funnyman, however, are in for a disappointment. Adapted by Martin from his own novel, it's even got some perceptive and amusing things to say about love and relationships. ... Full Review

Remakes are inevitable. I know, I know. But at least when the remakes are of foreign-language films, I can rant whilst understanding that they're spoon feeding the anti-subtitle audience. ... Full Article

Perhaps that project Anand Tucker announced recently- The Danish Girl with Nicole Kidman playing a transsexual-was a bit too heavy for his liking. While he's still attached to the project, Tucker's announced he's in talks to direct another picture that's,... ... Full Article
