Matthew-Broderick Movie Reviews

This is really a nice little film. It is probably just the type of good film you'd see at an independent film festival, like Sundance. In other words, it is a good example of the sort of quality film American audiences usually ignore while they lament the lack of such films. It is a pity, but then again, true film buffs will always find a way to discover these film for their true value. Basically, this is a movie about a long-absent brother who returns to his sister's home, where she lives with her son, and the family drama that ensues thereafter. Nothing mind-blowing, no special effects, just good and honest acting at its finest. Laura Linney is just so incredibly good in this movie, I don't know why she didn't win the Best Actress Oscar (at least she was nominated). She really created a believable (wonderful yet flawed) character. Matthew Broderick adds a slice of sly humor as her weasly boss.

The DVD itself is nicely done, no thrills or frills but competently done. If you like such films as "Ruby in Paradise" (Ashley Judd's first starring role and by far her best performance), "Ulee's Gold" (Peter Fonda's best performance in ages), "The Straight Story" (a G-rated David Lynch film, what will he think of next, but it is a masterpiece of FAMILY entertainment), "The Horse Whisperer" (Scarlett Johansson was so good in this film as the emotionally-scarred girl that the Academy Awards really dropped the ball when she wasn't nominated!), or "The Sweet Hereafter" (Atom Etoyan's masterpiece about loss), you will enjoy this film just fine! Give it a try! Or give any of the other films a try, too, as they are all (guaranteed!) far superior to whatever latest Hollywood special effects mishmash is bombarding the movie theaters today.

A small movie set in a small town delivers various big elements including top-notch performances from its two leads, extremely effective character development all around and a poignant message dipped with the importance of love, family, relationships and spirituality. This is obviously not a typical Hollywood picture and surely not for everyone, but definitely one to see for anyone who appreciates superior character studies, feels confused, overwhelmed or bored about their own life, and is curious about the familial foundation which supports this entire movie. This isn't a very upbeat film. It does contain a handful of lighter moments, but is basically a movie that feels sort of somber all the way through but doesn't ever really get boring. The force of the writing is the main reason for that, with the superior performances set forth by all, straddling in as a close second. Major kudos go out to Mark Ruffalo, who completely inhabits his role as the loose younger brother with the knack for getting into trouble, as well as Laura Linney, playing the full role of mother, sister, lover and employee to a tee. The excellent rapport between the two leads also makes you glad to be spending some time with them

I never would have guessed this was director Kenneth Longergan's first directorial job. The film was just so brilliant. But it was, and maybe that's why he tried so hard to get everything just right. Well, he succeeded. Laura Linney and Mark Ruffolo are wonderfully cast and extrememly believable as brother and sister. One who's a bit of a wanderer and the other who's a single mom. Another surprise was playing Rudy, Rory Culkin...who's quiet maturity really fit well with Linney's character, and a great opposition to his uncle played by Ruffolo. But the movie is really about the impacts that they all have on one another, and the ways in which they change each other's lives (for the better). I really enjoyed the film and the supporting roles by Matthew Broderick and Lonnergan's wife as Linney's co-worker (with the color coded computer screen). I love that Lonnergan resisted ending his movie with a cookie cutter/neat package ending and really admire that he stuck by his vision and didn't get talked into that formula by execs with no guts. Superb first effort! Also of note: Lonnergan also co-wrote Gangs of New York.

Jim Carrey is "The Cable Guy" in this dark comedy from director Ben Stiller. In one of his best (and underrated) performances, Carrey stars as a lonely, pathetic and very disturbed individual desperately in need of friendship and some very serious psychiatric care. Neglected by his mother as a child, and left in the care of the "babysitter" (the television) for nurturing, he has grown into adulthood as a man orbiting somewhere along the fringes of reality. Even his name is an enigma; using various aliases from the sitcoms he grew up with, he is "Chip Douglas" (My Three Sons) when he happens into the life of the unsuspecting Steven Kovacs (Matthew Broderick). Steven is coping with problems of his own; when he proposes to his girlfriend, Robin (Leslie Mann), she responds by kicking him out of their apartment. Steven rents a new place and, of course, has to get the cable hooked up. Enter the Cable Guy. Acting on the advice of his friend, Rick (Jack Black), Steven approaches Chip with the idea of setting him up with free movie channels for a fifty dollar gratuity. "Ever hear of anything like that?" he inquires. Chip responds with a feigned admonition about "Illegal cable," then readily agrees to "Juice him up." Unwittingly, Steven thereby forms a bond with Chip, who he later learns can be "His best friend, or his worst enemy." For comedy to work, it must be taken seriously; real laughs come from playing it straight, and Stiller is a master of this technic (As both actor and director). He is to be commended here for extracting a tempered performance from Carrey by reining in his natural tendency toward over exuberance (which has worked for him in other projects, but would have been detrimental here). There are some hilarious moments in this film: Chip throwing a Karaoke party for Steven; a scene that takes place at a Medieval Times restaurant (with a terrific cameo by Janeane Garofalo as their waitress); and a bit with ongoing news coverage of a murder trial in which Stiller plays twin brothers Stan and Sam Sweet. But there are just as many uncomfortable moments, which tend to leave the viewer somewhat uneasy, such as the scene in which Chip dupes Steven's family into playing "Porno Password." We feel Steven's discomfort as well as his frustration with his own inability to control what ultimately becomes an ugly situation. Or when Chip confronts Robin's date (Owen Wilson) in the restroom of a restaurant. There is an edgy humor to these scenes, but the underlying hostility has an unnerving effect. With a supporting cast that includes George Segal and Diane Baker (as Steven's parents), Andy Dick (as the Medieval Host), and Eric Roberts (as himself), "The Cable Guy" is a tense and entertaining film. Some Jim Carrey fans may be a bit put off by this one, though, for it is not the typical Carrey offering. This is a glimpse at the effects of a deranged mind. It is a dark and somewhat disturbing movie, and in the end, issues are left unresolved; but addressing Chip's psychoses was never intended here. This film was made, not to enlighten, but to entertain; and in that, it succeeds. If it is just laughs and light fare you're looking for, however, be advised: this is definitely not where you want to go.

This is a good one if you've ever had an annoying friend or stranger force themselves on you and show up when you don't want them around. See, the real point of this whole movie is to stop watching tv and pick up a book which is never going to happen.

Jim Carrey plays a duranged cable guy (alias Chip Douglas) who becomes obsessed with his newest customer Steven Kovacs (played by Matthew Broderick). Chip was neglected as a child by his parents and was raised by the TV. Now he is very lonely, an outcast who really just wants a friend. However he takes this way over the edge with the vulnerable Steve, who has just broken up with his girlfriend. Carrey is great, a comical genius, and also quite creepy as the crazy cable guy. Broderick idealy fits the character of Steven, being the laid-back one that gets pushed to the edge by the cable guy's antics.
I enjoyed this movie a lot, it was side-splitting funny and seriously dramatic at the same time. Fine directing from Ben Stiller, in addition to his funny cameo's in the movie as the alleged murderer on trial. All in all this is a great movie, a unique comedy, despite the fact that it wasn't recieved well in the box office. Dark comedies like this usually aren't. It may be an acquired taste, but it's a taste that's well worth a try!

My rating--4 stars--is an average of the parts. The first-rate cast deserves 10 stars. It is a dream ensemble comprised of today's young acting talent all demonstrating their character chops. Jennifer Jason Leigh deserves notice for the energy and commitment she brings to her portrayal of writer Dorothy Parker, though her vocal characterization is an acquired taste. The film gets two stars for running too long. It gets 3 for the sound and directorial choices that mute the notorious wit of the Algonquin Round Table, often reducing it to background mumblings. The choice to relentlessly emphasize the dark side of Mrs. Parker's life is often oppressive. I am amazed, as she apparently was, that she lived as long as she did.

During the mid-eighties, Alan Rudolph was one of the enfants-terrible of filmmaking, along with John Hughes, Barry Levinson, Lucas and Spielberg. Then, for some reason, we lost him. After finishing off a trilogy that featured Keith Carradine and Genevieve Bujold, Rudolph proceeded to make ill-advised movies like "Made In Heaven", losing MY interest almost immediately. You'll remember, if you saw it, that this film featured Timothy Hutton and his then-wife, Debra Winger. Winger played God, if you can believe that.

Anyway, with "Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle", Herr Rudolph is back in form, going back to his "The Moderns" era, the 20s, but this time, taking a bead on the PSEUDO-bohemian life in flapper era New York, specifically the goings-on amongst the habitués of the Algonquin Round Table and various Condé Nast and New Yorker Magazine writers and editors.

Jennifer Jason Leigh is good as the acerbic Ms. Parker, but I can't help thinking that the somewhat well-known standup comic, Margaret Smith, would not have been a better choice. She has the mien, NATURAL speech pattern and delivery you would expect Dorothy Parker to have had, and her act consists of just the type of bromides and anecdotes you'd expect to come out of that droll lady's mouth. Leigh is just too cute and cuddly to portray such an acid-tongued, distaff reprobate!

However, some of the other actors portraying Algonquin luminaries were picked MUCH more carefully, specifically the two doing Alexander Wolcott and George S. Kauffmann. It is, however, almost disturbing that Campbell Scott, parlaying the famous Robert Benchley, bares not a WHIT of resemblance to HIS target, either in manner or appearance!

However, true to Rudolph form, the era is reproduced flawlessly, from the costuming to the set design and art direction. The writing is witty, esp. for the background male members of the Round Table. However, as good as Leigh is, you get the feeling that she is either trying to hard in the role of Parker, or is just about to nod off, her reading is so lethargic.

Don't get me wrong, I LIKE Jennifer Jason Leigh, I just think that the inimitable Ms. Margaret Smith would have been a much better choice.

Nonetheless, this is Rudolph again at his best....putting the microscope to an artistic microcosm and recreating the setting faithfully. Unlike any other director...Alan Rudolph is the undeniable KING of mood!

You could do much worse than rent or buy this highly atmospheric movie about a woman who is too often ignored in the world of cinema.

When I first started watching this movie I was all "my gawd, that Mrs Parker- her voice is insufferable! Did she really talk like that?" and then halfway thru I was like "this woman is so miserable, and that voice? Still insufferable!" But by the end... I was in love!

Jennifer Jason Leigh rocked the house as angry, drunken, witty Dorothy Parker. The poetry readings interspersed throughout were great, and her perpetual unhappiness really grows on ya so that by the end when she's accepting that award in characteristic Dorothy fashion you're all smiley-faced saying "that's my girl!"

To start: this movie is HORRIBLE! Everything about is terribly done. An added side note: THIS MOVIE FREAKED ME OUT! I don't know what it was about it but it's kinda creepy

I first heard of this film in a preview while going to see a disney movie in the theatres. I had looked foward to seeing it, for the preview effects were stunning. I was dissappointed I could not find it (it never came to our theatre), however, a year or so later I found the VHS version and settled in to enjoy the film.

I was hardly disappointed. The visual effects dazzled my eyes--it was refreshingly different from standard Disney animation. It was wonderful to see something "new", though I understand the original creator took many years to compile this film. I also love the songs--"Am I feeling love" is especially heart rendering. "She is more than this" often rings in my head, also, and I don't mind.

There were a few disappointing elements--sappy names--what king, even a sleepy, dimwitted-looking one like the king of bagdhad, would name his daughter "Yum-Yum?" ESPECIALLY when she was drawn dressed for the part--skimpy see-through clothes and a huge, uh, chest area? It's a sexual reference that is a little too blatant, but the princess seemed intelligent enough, so that made up for it.

The plot could have been better woven, too. It was choppy in some parts, boring in others--the slow talk was mind-numbing at points--but this was far overshadowed by the dazzling display of animation during the fighting scenes--the theif being flung here and there during the battle with One Eye was especially captivating. I loved the thought-overs he had, too--the woman's scream as he came flying through her window, and coming out with a rose in his mouth and thinking "Ohh...naughty." I about busted a gut.

Yes, this movie was well worth watching. If you want to be dazzled by a truly different and unique style of animation (and are willing to overlook a few weak plot points), give this film a try. I certainly found it worthwhile.

It is not necessary to be or have kids to watch this film. While current animated features are turning towards CG to strengthen the film, "The Thief and the Cobbler" remains strong to the original method. The epic spectrum and animation of the feature is something akin to Fantasia, without the baggage that Disney films are associated with. Having renown actors for the voices only makes this animated film that much more amazing.

I had heard rumors about this somewhat obscure film, but nobody who had seen it could remember the title. Finally, one day I stumbled upon it @ Amazon.com. With great excitement I ordered it immediately, nor did it end up being unworthy of my anticipation.

The film centers around the epoch of Richard Phillips Feynman's courtship of and marriage to his 1st wife, Arline. As such, it also touches upon Feynman's "vocation" during World War II, which was being an active member of the Manhattan Project in Los Alamos, New Mexico.

The book is mostly based on Feynman's book called WHAT DO YOU CARE WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK? [ISBN: 0393320928, also available @ Amazon.com]. The book is highly recommended for all persons who have an interest in viewing this movie. There are also a few tidbits from SURELY YOU'RE JOKING MR. FEYNMAN [ISBN: 0393316041] and John Archibald Wheeler's GEONS, BLACK HOLES AND QUANTUM FOAM [ISBN: 0393319911]. Both of these latter books are highly recommended to the Feynman enthusiast as well.

The story of Feynman's sublime and fervent love that he felt for his terminally ill wife is nothing short of inspiring. As the great physicist has for many years been one of my most admired personages, it is without embarrassment that I admit this to be one of the few films that has ever made me cry. Even viewers who have never heard of this scientist would be hard-pressed not to be moved by this film.

As a bonus, the film does a good job of incorporating on the margins Feynman's dad, little sister, Joan (who earned a Ph.D. in physics herself from Syracuse university), John Archibald Wheeler, Hans Bethe, a young Henry Bethe and Robert Oppenheimer.

The handful of verbal over-lays are well-placed and do not get in the way of the film's symmetry. Although Broderick has never been one of my favorite actors, he pulled off his portrayal of a young Feynman quite well (if you ignore the fact that his New York accent is a bit inconsistent). It would be nice to see more movies like this in the future.

Not being a terrific movie buff, I accidentally found this to watch over cable. I've ordered it. Feynman was irrefutably one of the great minds, and characters, of the 20th century. I was most fortunate in having seen him lecture and even getting to interact with him as a student. However impossible it might have been to bring forth his personal mannerisms, Broderick did a job which was overly impressive. The drama of Feynman's love with Arline, to me, was unbearably poignant. Science was presented fairly well. The era of the war was captured, regarding those remaining stateside. New Mexico scenes were extroadinary and very accurate. I didn't know a thing about Broderick, but I say a great film was developed under his acting and directorship.

I was immediately drawn in and was quietly taught a lesson in love, of oneself as well as another. Aside from Richard Feyman's scientific brilliance, it was more inspiring to learn that real love exists. Richard and Arlene had a great fusion of their own.

First of all, Meg Ryan is the ebodiment of every acknowledged id out there. Who wouldn't want the chance to get even with the man who scorned you? Matthew Broderick, obsessed with his lost love, happens to cross Meg's path in the process, and the two become unlikely allies.

Dark, funny and sweet all at the same time, Addicted to Love is a romantic, if strangely endearing film. Unfortunately, can't say the same for the DVD. Zero special features. Sure, you get scene selection and interactive menus, but what doesn't have that?

I bought mine used, but the point is I bought it. Don't overpay, but buy it cheap, and you'll be glad you got it.

This is one of my favorite ALL TIME movies! There are many movies I cant watch again, but Ive worn this video OUT! This movie is great for when youre in the mood for a comedy, a romance, if youve just broken up with someone or are just at that special someone. Its great when youre single to remind you WHY youre single. And pull that altogether with the fact that it has two of my very favorite people in it! Meg Ryan and Mathew Broderick! Enjoy! AGAIN AND AGAIN!!!

I love this movie. Reminds me of how refreshing and lovely older movies are.

Meg Ryan and Matthew Broderick, spurned by both their lovers has decided to take revenge. It was both hilarious and fun to watch. Methods of revenge are extreme and well thought!

Good Movie!
