The film was a landmark of its time on so many fronts and challenged so many attitudes of the time.

Posted by: Tom Milroy  •  March 23, 2005 @ 11:59am

The last time we saw Gracie Hart 5 years ago in Miss Congeniality, she was involved with Benjamin Bratt's character Eric Matthews. There is no Eric Matthews in the sequel â€" Bratt must have seen the script and passed.

Directed by John Pasquin (The Santa Clause), Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous is one bad movie.

Review: Reflection

Posted by: Showbiz Monkeys  •  March 20, 2005 @ 11:59am

Through film, over time, we have absorbed many different perceptions of the life cycle and what exists beyond death. There is a constant search to fill the void surrounding the unknown, the unexplained, and the unresolved. For entertainment value, we have explored the possibilities and pushed boundaries expanding our imaginations or reaffirming faith.

Woody Allen has always been obsessed with the theory that tragedy and comedy were always closely connected. He believes that you can take any given scene and it will work both tragically and comically.

Review: Ice Princess

Posted by: Mark McLeod  •  March 18, 2005 @ 11:59am

Casey Carlyle (Michelle Trachtenberg) is just your normal run-of-the-mill 16-year-old high school student. She's not overly popular, but she's not despised either. She's a straight-A student and does well with her studies. Her best subject is science â€" more specifically physics â€" and while she has never considered skating professionally, she enjoys doing it on her nice backyard pond.

Moving Pictures: Spotlighting Canadian Films
