Articles tagged "jennifer beals" Film DVD ReviewFlashdance: I Love the 80’s Editionby Christel Loar[23.Feb.09] :. Flashdance is probably one of the most enduring and uplifting films from the '80s, but this I Love the 80's Edition is lacking in any feel-good features.  TV ReviewThe L Wordby Marisa Carroll[18.Jan.09] :. As a result of the much publicised murder at the start of this season's L Word, the first few episodes resemble Murder She Wrote, just with more, um, oral. And yes, in terms of the sex, The L Word is as hot as ever.  Film DVD ReviewFlashdanceby Mehera Bonner[28.Sep.07] :. With its sexy dance routines, unforgettable inspirational dialogue (“You give up your dream, you die!”) and attempt at a statement on gender relations, Flashdance is still so hot that you will need a bucket of cold water poured on you after you watch it.  Film DVD ReviewThe Grudge 2 (2006)by Matthew Stern[22.Feb.07] :. Shimizu pulls off the “this ghost is scary just because it’s looking at you” trick so effectively that it stays embedded in your mind.  TV ReviewThe L Wordby Todd R. Ramlow[23.Jan.07] :. Scared and excited, Phyllis became a symbol of what's best and most complex about The L Word, that a secure sense of identity is never easy.  TV ReviewThe L Wordby Marisa Carroll[11.Jan.07] :. The L Word is more enjoyable to watch with a group, mostly because subtlety is not one of its strengths. The L Word: The Complete Third Seasonby Marisa Carroll[5.Jan.07] :. Season Three's biggest storylines were also the most controversial among fans: Dana's death from breast cancer; and the introduction of a transgender character. The Grudge 2 (2006)by Cynthia Fuchs[13.Oct.06] :. Rethinking the very concepts of remake, sequel, and translation, The Grudge 2 is not a regular horror movie, or even a regular J-horror movie. The L Wordby David Swerdlick[1.Feb.06] :. Now that The L Word has considered many of the broad topics of the day (with the notable exception of a same-sex wedding or commitment ceremony), it can do its own thing. The L Wordby David Swerdlick[9.Jun.05] :. Although there is probably someone in L.A. just like Mark -- art house aesthetic on the outside masking a Joe Francis attitude on the inside -- he never seems completely believable. Catch That Kid (2004)by Cynthia Fuchs[5.Feb.04] :. Remembering well that her dad fell (100 feet), spunky climber Maddy's also afraid she might fall. Runaway Jury (2003)by Cynthia Fuchs[16.Oct.03] :. Besieged by John Grishamish plot twisties, the actors in Runaway Jury do their best to fashion an emotional coherence. |
