Reviews I wrote for the Herald this week:
The Back-Up Plan. “Lopez gets stuck in another subpar movie.”
The Losers. “A helicopter, a handful of bombs, and one really, really strong magnet.”
Exit Through the Gift Shop. “I don’t know what it is.”
Oceans. “Do NOT mess with a mantis shrimp.”
Ajami. “Battleground in their own back yard.”
Terribly Happy. “Surrounded by the kind of all-consuming marshland Anthony Perkins found so handy for hiding things in Psycho.”
The Square. “A downward spiral where men and women do the wrong things for the wrong reasons.” Plus an interview with director Nash Edgerton.
Also, I talked about the culture of the Confederate Pride movement with Steve Scher on KUOW’s “Weekday,” archived here. The conversation begins 14 minutes into the program.
