All of the new DVD releases hit stores (and Netflix) on Tuesdays. So each week in What to Netflix: New DVD Tuesday, I sort through the best of the batch and tell you what to add to your queue. In addition to the titles below, Black Snake Moan also comes out on DVD today, but from my review you can see that I wouldn't highly recommend that film. It's interesting, but not entirely Read more

I know that it's a big-budget movie with lots of big-name actors that's spending a lot of money on TV ads, but really: Wild Hogs?!? Yes, the perplexing buddy-meets-biker movie with a "did I read that right?" cast — John Travolta, Martin Lawrence, Tim Allen, and William H. Macy — was No. 1 at the box office this weekend, bringing in $38 million in its first three days. Zodiac, which I liked Read more

Almost everyone who has seen the trailer for Black Snake Moan has the same question: Is this movie for real? The answer: well, sort of. The premise, admittedly, sounds like a joke: A blues musician named Lazarus (Samuel L. Jackson) chains the town tramp, Rae (Christina Ricci), to a radiator in order to cure her of her wickedness. But don't worry: Though writer-director Craig Brewer expects us to Read more

Even though Justin sadly missed the NY Black Snake Moan premiere, the show had to go on. The stars of the film, Christina Ricci and Samuel L. Jackson, dressed in drastically different levels of formal wear, but that just seems to be Sam's MO these days. Christina, on the other hand, looked smashing in that hot pink number. I still contend that Read more

My coverage of the 2007 Sundance Film Festival is almost over, as the event comes to a close in Park City, Utah. I've brought you previews of some of the promising comedies, dramas, dramedies and documentaries, so I figured I'd also mention some of the films that, thanks to big studios offering lots of money, will probably be coming to a theater near you (or Netflix) relatively soon. Check out Read more

Black Snake Moan premiered at Sundance this week and while JT may not be the lead in the film he continues to promote it with all his heart. We've already told you about how weird this film sounds where Samuel L Jackson plays a washed up musician who makes it his duty to cure the town tramp (Christina Ricci) of her slutty ways. Maybe it all looked great on paper, but this is one of those movies Read more

On Tuesday, I professed my love for the portrait studio at the Sundance Film Festival, where the casts of each film pose for a series of casual yet artful shots that are inexplicably fun to look at. So fun, in fact, that I've put together another gallery of celebs at Sundance. This one feature Parker Posey, Justin Timberlake and Christina Ricca from Black Snake Moan, Chapter 27 star Jared Leto, Read more

Christina Ricci, Samuel L. Jackson and Justin Timberlake are all at Sundance to promote Black Snake Moan, or, as I like to call it, The Weirdest Freaking Movie of All Time, For Real, Watch The Trailer and Then Get Back to Me On Whether It Makes Sense/What Genre It Even Is (yeah, my name for it is a mouthful, let's just stick with the real title). While the film may confuse, befuddle and bewilder Read more

The Sundance Film Festival kicked off on Thursday in Park City, Utah, and I've been busily seeking out the films that look the most promising. I already shared what look to be this year's must-see comedies, and for today's installment, I'm back to introduce you to four more picks, this time in the drama category. Chapter 27 Given the subject matter (John Lennon's murder) and the star power Read more
