I expected more from Harrison's film because, apparently, he is still a box

I disagree with Paris being a summer movie. If it was a summer movie, it
would have played in the summer. It was dumped in February for a reason - a
good reason as it turns out. Case in point, The Book of Eli with its
religious theme, should have been a Christmas movie. But it would have

I saw Extraordinary Measures (big sneak preview crowd) but Mel looks old and

Well, it's based on a BBC series that's about as old as China
Syndrome. Which made it sort of hard for me to watch. There are so

Learn their lesson? Are you kidding?! Man, last night I saw a commercial
