"Something To Talk About" Examines Critical Issues About Trust In Marriage

Why "27 Dresses" By Aline Brosh McKenna Is Better Than The Average Romantic Comedy
Make no mistake, "27 Dresses" is better than average for a romantic comedy with pure entertainment, but not quite able to garner a 3-star (good) rating.

This film is well beyond the usual Texas high school football presentation. Find out why.
"Miss Congeniality 2" Is Not The Right Vehicle For Sandra Bullock's Potential As An Actress
Ah, sequels.
