Rolling Stone Movie ReviewsThe final word on all the movies everyone's talking about, straight from the editors of Rolling Stone.WALL-E- June 30, 2008 Starring: Fred Willard, Jeff Garlin, Sigourney Weaver, John Ratzenberger, K... Review: First image: the Earth as a garbage dump, a future reduced to ruins. For the past 700 years, what's left of humanity has been cruising the skies in a spaceship. Only a tiny robot, WALL-E (for Waste Allocation Load Lifter: Earth class), scoots around on urban terra firma compacting trash into piles that grow into skyscrapers. First sound: a voice lifted in song: "Out therethere's a world outside of Yonkers."...http://www.rollingstone.com/reviews/movie/19457927/review/21542030/walle?source=movie_revi... Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson- June 25, 2008 Starring: Gary Hart, George McGovern, Jann Wenner, Jimmy Buffett, Jimmy Car... Review: The good doctor is family around these parts, so cheers to Alex Gibney (Oscar winner for Taxi to the Dark Side) for not screwing up this mesmerizing documentary about the people, places and substances that altered the mind and battered heart of the Kentucky-born inventor of gonzo journalism. Johnny Depp, who paid for the 2005 funeral in which Thompson's ashes were fired out of a cannon, narrates with just the.http://www.rollingstone.com/reviews/movie/18139826/review/21477306/gonzo_the_life_and_work... Wanted- June 25, 2008 Starring: James McAvoy, Morgan Freeman, Angelina Jolie, Terence Stamp, Thom... Review: Angelina Jolie is packing heat, and she's going to show James McAvoy how to load a phallic pistol and shoot his wad. What's not to like Wanted is what I'd call a guilty pleasure. Translation: It's trash, but I love it anyway. Brutal, sexy, built to thrill and minus a scintilla of redeeming social value, the movie — based on a series of comic books by Mark Millar and J.G. Jones — explodes like...http://www.rollingstone.com/reviews/movie/17041740/review/21477251/wanted?source=movie_rev... The Dark Knight- June 25, 2008 Starring: Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Heath Ledger, Gary Oldman, Aaron E... Review: Heads up: a thunderbolt is about to rip into the blanket of bland we call summer movies. The Dark Knight, director Christopher Nolan's absolute stunner of a follow-up to 2005's Batman Begins, is a potent provocation decked out as a comic-book movie. Feverish action Check. Dazzling spectacle Check. Devilish fun Check. But Nolan is just warming up. There's something raw and elemental at work in this artfully...http://www.rollingstone.com/reviews/movie/16155928/review/21477208/the_dark_knight?source=... Go-Getter- June 5, 2008 Starring: Lou Taylor Pucci, Zooey Deschanel, Jena Malone, Giuseppe Andrews,... Review: Director-writer Martin Hynes shapes his first movie into something emotionally truthful, painfully funny and vibrantly alive. Its a near-perfect road movie, since you dont want the ride to end. Oregon teenager Mercer White, played by a subtly sensational Lou Taylor Pucci, hits the highway in a stolen car to track down his half-brother, Arlen (Jsu Garcia), who doesnt know their mother has died. In concise...http://www.rollingstone.com/reviews/movie/14707341/review/21089328/gogetter?source=movie_r... |
