The Jane Austen Book Club
Though it’s as estrogenic as dong quai, this amiable film about six friends and their book club is thoughtfully rendered with a certain universality of spirit.
"...mature relationships from within the framework of a matinee-accessible romantic comedy. Also within this framework, reading is sexy, women..."

Becoming Jane
Jane Austen could spot a phony, and, as a result, she would not have been happy with this romanticized account of her early years.
"...Prada) lives with her parents and siblings in a romantic house on the rolling English countryside. Always writing, she’s..."

Triad Election
When the time comes for an aging gangster godfather in Hong Kong to step down, a bloody battle for control ensues in this vivid story about thug life.

Aug. 3, 2007 Movie Review by Marrit Ingman

No Reservations
While No Reservations is no Big Night, it's surprisingly winsome in parts, by virtue of Catherine Zeta-Jones' performance, and a romantic fable that lingers on the palette of the mind's eye.
"...that matter), it's also surprisingly winsome in parts, a romantic fable that lingers on the palette of the mind's..."

Broken English
Parker Posey gives a lovely, toned-down performance as Nora Wilder, the single, mid-30s Manhattanite at the heart of this romantic comedy.
"...the single, mid-30s Manhattanite at the heart of this romantic comedy. The role calls on her to effectively utilize..."

July 13, 2007 Movie Review by Marjorie Baumgarten

Waitress
Despite a storyline that involves an unplanned pregnancy, various affairs, spousal abuse, maternal ambivalence, and food-service employment, Waitress is an optimistic comedy about getting past your mistakes and making the best of life.
"...directed, is also authentically weird. It doesn’t fit the romantic-comedy mold, but somehow it’s a sunnier and more playful..."

Fracture
This legal thriller pits two brilliant actors against each other in a sustained battle of wills that has enough sizzle to keep us rapt even when the storyline sags.

Tyler Perry's Daddy's Little Girls
Despite the fact that Tyler Perry relies on contrivances and sentimentality, he manages to spin a good yarn in the process.
"...the five plus other Madea movies) but keeps the romantic fable that’s been present in all his work. The..."

Starter for 10
This British coming-of-age drama and romantic comedy is fairly predictable, although the charming actors manage to keep the story’s characters just this side of stereotype and mediocrity.
"...Bristol University becomes the stuff of coming-of-age drama and romantic comedy. For the most part, it’s all fairly predictable..."

Feb. 23, 2007 Movie Review by Marjorie Baumgarten

Candy
Despite sporting Heath Ledger and Abbie Cornish as a pair of Australian junkies increasingly on the outs with family, reality, and rent, Candy is a washout.
"...days gone by. It's neither utterly real nor utterly romantic (heroin, like alcohol, manages to be awfully and unremittingly..."

Dec. 15, 2006 Movie Review by Marc Savlov

The Holiday
Nancy Meyers’ follow-up to Something’s Gotta Give mines the same go-girl terrain but is far less interesting, featuring stock characterizations and a blandly upbeat vibe.
"...equivalent to “being in love,” this is the most romantic movie ever. You’ll love it. It has a snowy..."

Army of Shadows
Although made in 1969, this French masterpiece by Jean-Pierre Melville is receiving its first stateside release.
"...allowed the Nazis to occupy the country. Unlike the romantic images of freedom fighters perpetuated by the popular media,..."

Nov. 10, 2006 Movie Review by Marjorie Baumgarten

Time to Leave
This oddly dispassionate film about a young man dying of cancer is the French antidote to those Hollywood weepies in which the heroine courageously faces her own mortality with every hair in place.
"...the Sand, 8 Women) may view Romain’s actions as romantic in the great tradition of those dying movie heroines..."

Sept. 22, 2006 Movie Review by Steve Davis

The Illusionist
Surprisingly, this atmospheric movie starring some of the greatest actors of our time is a dull and enervating bore.
"...story "Eisenheim the Illusionist" by Steven Millhauser. It's a romantic story set in Vienna, circa 1900, about a magician..."

Lady Vengeance
The South Korean master of revenge dramas, Park Chan-wook, offers another entertaining puzzle of emotional nuance, riotous color, and bloody hell.

Just My Luck
Lindsay Lohan takes on a grown-up role, but we can't tell the difference.
"...My Luck operates under the laziness of too many romantic comedies today. With an entirely preposterous premise, rules can..."

La Mujer de Mi Hermano
Soap melodramatics masquerade as high art in this south-of-the-border drama about a love triangle and marital infidelity.

The Libertine
Johnny Depp runs away with the show in this murkily filmed picture, cackling all the while and defiling beauty in all its forms as the exceedingly decadent Earl of Rochester.
"...the mad, bad, and dangerous-to-know mold. Wilmot is an anti-romantic poet with a notion of romance that scarcely runs..."

March 10, 2006 Movie Review by Marc Savlov

Casanova
Hallström’s latest is fine but unambitious, content with what it is – an arthouse trifle with tricorner hats, corsets, and powdered wigs.
"...a semihistorical basis, and ever so many ostensibly delightful romantic misapprehensions. Its characters do not have elaborately developed inner..."

The Ringer
A Farrelly brothers comedy that purports to have a message about treating the intellectually challenged as regular human beings and stars Johnny "Jackass" Knoxville is about as disingenuous as a comedy that urges us to see past a person’s body size to appreciate the beauty within and stars Gwyneth Paltrow in a fat suit.
"...is his fault) – and adds on some comeuppance, romantic intrigue, and inspirational lessons. The result is an uneven..."

Dec. 23, 2005 Movie Review by Marjorie Baumgarten

King Kong
Jackson's remake is a corker of an action/monster movie: part RKO serial; part square-jawed, manly romp; and part classic journey into the unknown that recalls and references Heart of Darkness.
"...bigger stars, biggest simian ever); it’s also a sweet-natured romantic fable, albeit one that packs in carnivorous cockroaches, rampaging..."

Dec. 16, 2005 Movie Review by Marc Savlov

The Family Stone
This likable romantic comedy runs the gamut of emotions – hitting tenderness, rage, remorse, and everything in between – but there are too many characters with too little chemistry to be a real keeper.
"...with snarky Amy leading the attack. There is some romantic intrigue, as well: The lingering question of "Do they..."

Dec. 16, 2005 Movie Review by Kimberley Jones

Brokeback Mountain
The beautifully wrought film is a tragic love story (not a "gay cowboy movie") that’s defined by its staggering heartbreak.
"...frustrating state of limbo is what makes Brokeback the romantic tragedy it is: The love itself isn’t sad, only..."

Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress
This Chinese film presents an uncharacteristically romantic look at the Cultural Revolution.

Pride & Prejudice
This fresh adaptation of Jane Austen’s masterpiece starring Keira Knightley presents a witty and lovesick skirmish of the sexes that exceeds all expectations.

Shopgirl
Steve Martin's latest stands out as an elegant work, one that provides a welcome look at love, romance, and heartbreak without the encumbrances of the usual Hollywood folderol.
"...Frances Conroy. Shopgirl is a rare Hollywood offering: a romantic story without the romance, a love story without the..."

Nov. 4, 2005 Movie Review by Marjorie Baumgarten

Happily Ever After
This French romantic comedy is little more than a heap of clichés whenever the director and star Yvan Attal's real-life wife, Charlotte Gainsbourg, disappears from the screen.
"...paced, and overly reliant on the ostensible truisms of romantic comedy...."
