Travolta is
fantastic as the fast-talking, fast-acting special agent who is always happy to
bend the rules whenever necessary. Why Travolta feels the need to degrade
himself in movies like Old Dogs and Wild Hogs is perplexing, as he is
clearly more successful being a badass than anything else.

In Police,
Adjective, it’s an obsession with the meanings of words which culminates in
a now-famous 20-minute scene near the end of the film in which the captain has
Cristi read aloud dictionary definitions for terms such as “conscience,” “law”
and “moral.”

In a film based around a breakup
signifying an end, more meaningful threads emerge and steal the show.

Herzog’s trademarks are
unmistakably clear in the film; the big one is Cage’s broad performance; pretty
much any other director would have reeled him in. Good thing Herzog didn’t,
because Cage carries the film; he hasn’t been this good since Adaptation.

But let the naïve viewer beware: The Beaches of Agnes is the opposite of a straightforward autobiographical film. It begins with a scene of Varda setting up mirrors on a beach, suggesting that she enjoys creating confusion about what is real and what is not.

In his performance, Gibson reminds the audience why he has been a movie star for 25 years. When he's onscreen your eyes can’t focus on anyone except him and the intensity he brings to each role.

For all his faults it's impossible to dislike Blake.

It's a film oddly devoid of tension -- will he or won't he is the last
thing Ford is concerned with -- but is almost overwhelmingly painful to
watch as it communicates the terrible grief of a man who lost his
partner of 16 years and must keep his mourning, as he kept the
relationship, secret.

And yet. The end result of all those people's talents and
labors is film which is often visually striking but emotionally
baffling, and ultimately seems stuck in the same sort of purgatory as
its young heroine.

The problem with movies like this is that if you've seen the trailer, you've seen the whole film.

While the film is not entirely successful, it certainly qualifies as a glorious mess of a failure.

In a career-worst performance, Daniel Day-Lewis plays Guido Contini who is making a film with no plot.

There's so much to enjoy in The Young Victoria that it's worth overlooking the occasionally clunky screenplay.

Lacking an interesting story to tell, the film falls back on that favorite of lazy writers everywhere: namedropping.

A track record like Reitman's inspires nothing but goodwill and lust for more films of a similar standard of quality.
