Hugh Grant and Colin Firth co-star as the men she's torn between. To be reviewed when it opens next Friday. PG-13 (vulgarity, profanity, sex). (Saturday: Century, Jordan Commons, Jordan Landing.)
MIDNIGHT MOVIES
THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS — ** 1/2 — Director Jonathan Demme's overrated, Oscar-winning adaptation of the best-selling Thomas Harris novel is more notable for the character interplay between Anthony Hopkins' chilling Hannibal "The Cannibal" Lecter and Jodie Foster's FBI Agent Clarice Starling (they both won Academy Awards for their performances) than the much less interesting main story line. Still, it's certainly better than the sensationalistic sequel. R (violence, gore, profanity, vulgarity, nudity). (Tower, Friday and Saturday.)
SPECIAL SCREENINGS
AFRICA'S ELEPHANT KINGDOM — Aussie filmmaker Michael Caulfield directed this 40-minute documentary about the huge mammals, which was originally shown in 3-D. Featuring narration by Avery Brooks. Shown in the large-screen format. Not rated, probable G. (Exclusive, Jordan Commons.)
CIRQUE DU SOLEIL: JOURNEY OF MAN —*** 1/2 — A vista of sheer beauty, the kind that mesmerizes your children and seduces adults into a warm visual bath. The images wash over you for 38 minutes — and the less you think and analyze, the better. Three routines by the Montreal-based circus troupe, which symbolize the birth of mankind. Narrated by Ian McKellen. Shown in the large-screen format. G (nothing offensive). (Jordan Commons.) (March 2, 2001) — Diane Urbani
COOL HAND LUKE — **** — Paul Newman is terrific in the title role of this socially conscious 1967 comedy-drama, a prisoner who refuses to buckle under, despite the inhuman conditions. Watch for the memorable egg-eating contest sequence, as well as George Kennedy's solid supporting performance, which earned him an Oscar. Made before ratings, probable PG (violence, language, vulgarity). (Jordan Commons.)
EPIC JOURNEYS: THE GREAT MIGRATIONS — The makers of the large-screen documentaries "Africa: The Serengeti" and "Alaska: Spirit of the Wild" return with this 40-minute feature about animal migrations across the globe. Shown in the large-screen format. Not rated, probable G (animal violence). (Jordan Commons.)
A MAN CALLED HORSE — *** — A fine performance by Richard Harris propels this dramatic 1970 Western about an English aristocrat kidnapped by Sioux Indians, who eventually becomes a member of the tribe. Inspired two inferior sequels, 1976's "Return of a Man Called Horse" and 1983's "Triumphs of a Man Called Horse." PG (violence, gore, torture, nudity, sex). (Jordan Commons.)
RED SORGHUM — *** 1/2 — The latest presentation by the University of Utah Film Front is a special screening of Chinese director Zhang Yimou's engrossing 1987 drama about a woman (Gong Li, wonderful as ever) whose winery is threatened by invading Japanese forces. In Mandarin, with English subtitles. Not rated, probable R (violence, profanity). (University of Utah, Sunday only, 7 p.m.)
WORKS FROM ALONG THE WASATCH FRONT — The monthly open-screening program of the Utah Film & Video Center, spotlighting 85 minutes' worth of short films by Utah artists, some of whom are having their works exhibited publicly for the first time. This program is not rated but may contain some PG-13 rated material. (Salt Lake Art Center, Friday only, 8 p.m.)
CONTINUING FILMS
BEST IN SHOW — *** — Filmmaker Christopher Guest's long-awaited follow-up to "Waiting for Guffman" has some very funny sequences, but it also has some mean-spirited notions about dog owners, who are spoofed in this mockumentary. Fred Willard steals the show as a befuddled color commentator. Running time: 89 minutes. PG-13 (vulgarity, profanity). (Sugar House.) (Oct. 13, 2000)
THE BROTHERS —** 1/2 — Director-writer Gary Hardwick's ensemble comedy — essentially, "Refusing to Exhale," may have a target demographic. But its themes of family, love and friendship are universal, and refreshingly, the title characters aren't ghetto stereotypes. Running time: 103 minutes. R (sex, profanity, vulgarity, racial epithets). (Century; Jordan Landing; Midvalley; Redwood, with "Along Came a Spider"; Ritz.) (March 23, 2001) — Anthony Breznican, Associated Press
CAST AWAY —*** 1/2 — Tom Hanks is superb in this dramatic adventure, which gives him what's possibly his most demanding role to date, that of an obsessive career man who has to reassess his priorities when his plane goes down and he winds up stranded on a desert island. Riveting, though it starts to stumble toward the end. Running time: 132 minutes. PG-13 (gore, profanity, brief vulgarity, brief partial nudity). (Jordan Landing, Midvalley.) (Dec. 22, 2000)
CHOCOLAT —** 1/2 — Filling but unsatisfying comedy/fantasy from director Lasse Hallstrom, adapting the acclaimed novel about a mysterious woman (the always luminous Juliette Binoche) who rankles some in a small French village when she opens a chocolate shop. A good cast helps, but the sometimes inappropriate tone is a distraction. Running time: 121 minutes. PG-13 (profanity, sex, violence, brief vulgarity, brief partial nudity). (Carmike 12, Century, Jordan Landing.) (Dec. 22, 2000)
CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON — **** — More than "just" a martial-arts film, director Ang Lee's period fantasy is a beautiful-looking, breathtaking and ultimately heartbreaking piece that finally puts veteran Hong Kong performers Michelle Yeoh and Chow-Yun Fat on the screen together. Easily the best film of 2000, and arguably the best in the history of the underappreciated genre. Winner of four Academy Awards. In Mandarin, with English subtitles. Running time: 120 minutes. PG-13 (violence, gore, brief sex). (Broadway, Century, Jordan Commons, Jordan Landing.) (Jan. 12, 2001)
DOWN TO EARTH — ** — Even Chris Rock can't save this misbegotten remake of "Heaven Can Wait," in which he stars as an unsuccessful comedian who dies and then is reborn into the body of a rich Manhattan mogul. The only time it comes to life is when Rock is onstage. Running time: 88 minutes. PG-13 (profanity, violence, vulgarity, brief sex, racial epithets). (Jordan Landing, Ritz.) (Feb. 16, 2001)
DUNGEONS & DRAGONS—* 1/2 — Ludicrous fantasy-adventure "inspired by" the role-playing game. Awful performances (by Thora Birch and hammy Jeremy Irons as an evil wizard) don't help, nor do the unconvincing digital effects. Running time: 105 minutes. PG-13 (violence, torture, mild profanity, brief gore, mild vulgarity). (Sandy.) (Dec. 8, 2000)
THE EMPEROR'S NEW GROOVE —** 1/2 — Boasting one of the most unmemorable story lines and one of the most unlikable heroes (David Spade, as the lead voice) in Disney's history, this animated comedy mines a few laughs in the tale of a spoiled king who is transformed into a llama. But it's still something of a disappointment. Running time: 78 minutes. G (animated violence, mild vulgarity). (Sandy, Sugar House, Trolley North, Valley Fair.) (Dec. 15, 2000)
ENEMY AT THE GATES — ** — This fact-based World War II sets us up for a nifty cat-and-mouse game between a Russian marksman (Jude Law) and his German counterpart (Ed Harris). But then it abandons it for a contrived Hollywood love triangle. Disappointing. Running time: 135 minutes. R (violence, profanity, gore, sex, nudity, vulgarity). (Broadway, Century, Gateway, Jordan Commons, Jordan Landing, Midvalley, Ritz.) (March 16, 2001)
EXIT WOUNDS — * — There are movies that aim for the stars. Then there are movies whose stars seem to be aiming at you. This dopey thriller, the latest Steven Seagal vehicle, falls into the latter category as if dropped from a great height. Running time: 117 minutes. R (violence, profanity, gore, vulgarity, racial epithets). (Carmike 12; Century; Jordan Commons; Jordan Landing; Midvalley; Redwood, with "The Mexican"; Ritz.) (March 17, 2001) — Jay Carr, Boston Globe
THE FAMILY MAN — ** — Despite a terrific performance by Tea Leoni, this fantasy is no "It's a Wonderful Life." Instead, it's a holiday classic wanna-be, a treacly fantasy about a self-centered stock broker (Nicolas Cage) who awakes to find himself in a different reality — one where he's married with kids. Running time: 124 minutes. PG-13 (profanity, veiled nudity, vulgarity). (Redwood, with "Spy Kids"; Sandy; Sugar House; Valley Fair.) (Dec. 22, 2000)
15 MINUTES —* 1/2 — Thinly veiled rip-off of "Natural Born Killers," pairing Robert De Niro and Edward Burns as a homicide detective and an arson investigator who team up to stop a pair of fame-obsessed killers. Irresponsibly violent and rather hypocritical, considering its attack on the media. Running time: 120 minutes. R (violence, profanity, gore, nudity, brief sex, brief vulgarity). (Redwood, with "Blow.") (March 9, 2001)
FINDING FORRESTER — *** — Producer/star Sean Connery enlivens this tale about the unique friendship between a reclusive author (Connery) and an inner-city athlete (newcomer Robert Brown) with a surprising talent for creative writing. The ending's a little weak, but the performances are good and the dialogue is sharp. Running time: 137 minutes. PG-13 (profanity, vulgarity, brief violence, racial epithets, brief sex). (Kaysville, Sandy.) (Jan. 12, 2001)
HANNIBAL — ** — Nauseating and surprisingly dull sequel to "The Silence of the Lambs," with Anthony Hopkins reprising his Oscar-winning role as the serial-killing title character. Hopkins is fine, but the emphasis is on gore, and Julianne Moore seems to be imitating Jodie Foster, whom she replaces in the role of FBI Special Agent Clarice Starling. Running time: 133 minutes. R (gore, violence, brief profanity, brief vulgarity, nude artwork, brief drug use). (Jordan Landing.) (Feb. 9, 2001)
HEARTBREAKERS — *** — — This dark comedy starring Sigourney Weaver and Jennifer Love Hewitt as a mother/daughter con team that targets wealthy men never fails to sink to the lowest common denominator — yet often hits a funny bone. Running time: 124 minutes. PG-13 (profanity, vulgarity, sex, violence). (Carmike 12, Century, Jordan Commons, Jordan Landing, Midvalley, Ritz.) (March 23, 2001) — Sheila Norman-Culp, Associated Press
THE MEXICAN —*** 1/2 — Not the romantic comedy it appears to be, but a violent, darkly comic thriller starring Brad Pitt as a small-time crook trying to recover a cursed revolver and recover his kidnapped girlfriend (Julia Roberts). Some very funny moments, though some may be put off by the violence and language. In English and Spanish, with English subtitles. Running time: 123 minutes. R (violence, profanity, gore, vulgarity). (Carmike 12; Jordan Commons; Jordan Landing; Midvalley; Redwood, with "Exit Wounds.") (March 2, 2001)
MISS CONGENIALITY — ** — Sandra Bullock is funny as an FBI agent who goes undercover at a national beauty pageant. But the film can't decide whether it wants to be a comedy, a thriller or "Pygmalion." and co-star Michael Caine is woefully underused. Running time: 110 minutes. PG-13 (violence, vulgarity, profanity). (Jordan Landing, Kaysville, Sandy, Sugar House, Valley Fair, Trolley North.) (Dec. 22, 2000)
O BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU? —*** 1/2 — The Coen brothers bounce back nicely from some recent disappointments with this hysterically funny Depression-era comedy, based very loosely on "The Odyssey." The period bluegrass music is terrific, and George Clooney has never been better as he is here, as the fast-talking leader of three prisoners on the lam after escaping escape from a chain gang. Running time: 103 minutes. PG-13 (violence, profanity, torture, racial epithets). (Century, Jordan Commons, Jordan Landing.) (Jan. 12, 2001)
102 DALMATIANS — ** — Listless, even dull, sequel to the 1996 hit, with Glenn Close reprising her role as the evil Cruella De Vil. Her animal co-stars are cute, but the film's not nearly funny or fun enough. Running time: 101 minutes. PG (slapstick violence, mild vulgarity). (Sandy, Valley Fair.) (Nov. 22, 2000)
POLLOCK — *** — Well-acted (by both director/star Ed Harris and Academy Award winner Marcia Gay Harden) biographical drama about infamous American painter Jackson Pollock, the country's film "art star." A little slow at times, and not the most insightful portrait, but the performances make it worthwhile. Running time: 125 minutes. R (profanity, violence, vulgarity, nude artwork, brief drug use). (Exclusive, Tower.) (March 23, 2001)
QUILLS — ** — You'd have to go back a long time to find another film as smugly satisfied with itself as this blackly comic historical piece, based on the stageplay about the final days of the Marquis de Sade. Oscar nominee Geoffrey Rush is terrific as the Marquis, but the attempts to broach censorship issues are extremely heavy-handed, and the material is surprisingly sleazy. Running time: 123 minutes. R (vulgarity, nudity, gore, profanity, sex, violence, torture, attempted rape). (Brewvies, must be 21 or older.) (Feb. 2, 2001)
RUGRATS IN PARIS — THE MOVIE — *** — Surprisingly funny sequel to 1998's surprising animated hit, focusing is on Chuckie Finster's efforts to get a new mom. Too much potty humor, but guest voice Susan Sarandon is a hoot as one particularly evil, potential mother. Running time: 74 minutes. G (vulgarity, slapstick violence). (Valley Fair.) (Nov. 17, 2000)
SAY IT ISN'T SO! —* 1/2 — The latest attempt to ape the Farrelly brothers was actually produced by the gross-out kings themselves. But this embarrassment comedy is missing the sweetness, and leads Heather Graham and Chris Klein aren't very appealing. Running time: 95 minutes. R (vulgarity, profanity, slapstick violence, sex, brief nudity, brief drug use). (Jordan Landing.) (March 23, 2001)
SEE SPOT RUN —* 1/2 — Crude, mean-spirited humor trying to pass itself off as family entertainment, with the painfully unfunny David Arquette starring as a mailman who unwittingly takes in a police dog that's in the witness-protection program. The few sweet moments don't even come close to outweighing the more objectionable ones. Running time: 95 minutes. PG (vulgarity, violence, profanity). (Jordan Landing; Redwood, with "Pokemon 3 The Movie.") (March 2, 2001)
SNATCH —** 1/2 — Director Guy Ritchie's follow-up to "Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels" is a little too similar to its ultra-violent, darkly comedic predecessor. But Brad Pitt is very funny as a Gypsy brawler, and there's some inspired mayhem among the mean-spiritedness. Running time: 103 minutes. R (profanity, violence, vulgarity, gore, ethnic slurs, nudity, torture). (Brewvies, must be 21 or older.) (Jan. 19, 2001)
SOMEONE LIKE YOU — ** — The unimaginative title fits this bland romantic comedy starring Ashley Judd as a woman who studies the male "animal" after her latest heartbreak. Not very funny, Judd doesn't have enough chemistry with co-stars Greg Kinnear and Hugh Jackman. Running time: 93 minutes. PG-13 (vulgarity, profanity, sex, brief partial nudity). (Broadway; Carmike 12; Century; Gateway; Jordan Commons; Jordan Landing; Midvalley; Redwood, with "Tomcats"; Ritz.) (March 30, 2001)
SPY KIDS — *** — A refreshingly original blast in the kids film genre, director Robert Rodriguez spoofs the spy film with this comic family adventure about the title characters, two children who have to rescue their secret-agent parents (Antonio Banderas and Carla Gugino). Not perfect, but fun. Running time: 89 minutes. PG (violence, mild vulgarity, mild profanity). (Carmike 12; Century; Cottonwood; Gateway; Jordan Commons; Jordan Landing; Midvalley; Redwood, with "The Family Man"; Ritz; Trolley Corners.) (March 30, 2001)
SUGAR & SPICE —* 1/2 — Shrill, one-note comedy about a cheerleading squad (including Marley Shelton and Mena Suvari) that robs a bank to aid a pregnant squad member. Too much lowbrow and slapstick humor, and the cast seems uninspired. Running time: 82 minutes. PG-13 (profanity, vulgarity, violence, nude artwork). (Sugar House, Valley Fair.) (Jan. 26, 2001)
THIRTEEN DAYS — *** — Sure, the outcome of the story is already known to most of us, but this political thriller about the Cuban missile crisis, starring Kevin Costner as one of the Kennedy administration's beleaguered advisers, is surprisingly tense. Co-stars Bruce Greenwood and Steven Culp, who play the late president and his brother, respectively, steal the show. In color and in black and white. Running time: 145 minutes. PG-13 (profanity, violence, vulgarity). (Kaysville, Sugar House, Valley Fair.) (Jan. 12, 2001)
3000 MILES TO GRACELAND —* 1/2 — Despite the misleading trailers, this caper thriller is more violent than humorous. It also wastes the talents of its all-star cast, which includes Kurt Russell and Kevin Costner, starring as ex-cons who pull off a robbery during an Elvis convention in Las Vegas. There's not nearly enough Elvis music, either. Running time: 125 minutes. R (violence, profanity, gore, sex, vulgarity, brief partial nudity) (Sandy, Sugar House, Valley Fair.) (Feb. 23, 2001)
TOMCATS — turkey — You have to go a long ways to find another comedy as stenuously unfunny and as ineptly made as this sex farce about pals (Jerry O'Connell and Jake Busey) who gamble on their ability to stay single. Ugh! Running time: 95 minutes. R (vulgarity, profanity, violence, nudity, sex, brief drug use). (Broadway; Carmike 12; Century; Gateway; Jordan Commons; Jordan Landing; Midvalley; Redwood, with "Someone Like You"; Ritz.) (March 30, 2001)
TRAFFIC — *** — Well-acted, riveting ensemble thriller centering on an Ohio Supreme Court justice (Michael Douglas) who's been nominated as the country's new drug czar. The cast is terrific, and the script is intelligent — at least until the final third, when some rather convenient plotting gets in the way of the story. Running time: 147 minutes. Winner of four Academy Awards. R (drug use, violence, profanity, sex, nudity, torture, vulgarity). (Century, Jordan Commons, Jordan Landing, Ritz.) (Jan. 5, 2000)
UNBREAKABLE —** 1/2 — A particularly weak ending mars director M. Night Shyamalan's otherwise fascinating follow-up to "The Sixth Sense." a fantasy-thriller about the sole survivor of a train crash (Bruce Willis), who discovers he may have unearthly powers. Running time: 107 minutes. PG-13 (violence, profanity, vulgarity). (Kaysville, Valley Fair.) (Nov. 22, 2000)
VALENTINE — ** — Not nearly as horrible as the ads would suggest. Of course, that's not to say this cheesy horror flick is good, either. But it is what it is and it doesn't try to be anything more. Running time: 95 minutes. R (violence, gore, sex, profanity). Marley Shelton, Denise Richards and David Boreanaz (TV's "Angel") star. (Valley Fair.) (Feb. 3, 2001) — Christy Lemire, Associated Press
VERTICAL LIMIT —** 1/2 — Forget the silly plot for this mountain climbing action-thriller and instead concentrate on the action sequences (including one shot in Moab), which make simple acts like breathing and drinking liquids seem dangerous. Chris O'Donnell , Robin Tunney and Scott Glenn star. Running time: 126 minutes. PG-13 (violence, profanity, vulgarity, drugs, brief gore). (Sugar House, Trolley North.) (Dec. 8, 2000)
THE WEDDING PLANNER — ** — Bland, strained romantic comedy starring Jennifer Lopez as the title character, who is torn between love and her career when she falls for the fiance (Matthew McConaughey) of her newest client. Not unwatchable, but not particularly memorable either. Running time: 100 minutes. PG-13 (vulgarity, profanity, nude artwork, slapstick violence). (Kaysville, Sandy, Sugar House, Valley Fair.) (Jan. 26, 2001)
WHAT WOMEN WANT —** 1/2 — Erratic, somewhat crude and definitely overlong romantic comedy/fantasy that's redeemed somewhat by star Mel Gibson, who's a howl as a male chauvinist who accidentally acquires the power to read women's minds. Running time: 126 minutes. PG-13 (vulgarity, profanity, sex, brief drug use). (Kaysville, Sandy Sugar House, Valley Fair.) (Dec. 15, 2000)
YOU CAN COUNT ON ME —*** 1/2 — Well-written comedy-drama (which won two awards from the 2000 Sundance Film Festival) about a single mother (Laura Linney) reunited with her irresponsible brother (Mark Ruffalo). Touching, funny and very truthful, with two of the best lead performances in an independently made film this year. Running time: 107 minutes. R (profanity, violence, drug use, brief sex, brief vulgarity). (Brewvies, must be 21 or older.) (Dec. 22, 2000)
