“She Came to Me” is hard to describe. Looking at the poster, with a New York City backdrop behind stars Peter Dinklage, Anne Hathaway and Marisa Tomei, you might think it’s a love triangle romantic comedy And maybe, since it is set in The Big Apple, you might predict it’s one of those rom-coms filled […]
Last week I made an annual visit to a screening at the Woodstock Film Festival, one of Upstate NY’s most popular film fests. The movie: “Eileen”, a dramatic mystery thriller NEON acquired the distribution rights to following its January premiere at the Sundance Film Festival. The studio, known for “I, Tonya”, “Parasite” and “Flee”, is […]
It’s unclear why director Robert Zemeckis, co-writer Guillermo del Toro, producer Alfonso Cuaron and Warner Bros. thought a new version of “The Witches” was necessary. The 1983 Roald Dahl novel is not one of his most celebrated works. The 1990 movie starring Anjelica Huston, though liked by critics, only made $10 million at the box […]
In the hilarious new comedy THE HUSTLE, Anne Hathaway and Rebel Wilson star as female scam artists, one low rent and the other high class, who team up to take down the dirty rotten men who have wronged them.

That’s also the day studio Aviron is lifting the embargo on reviews. So for now, all I can say is that Hathaway, and the film, […]

She reconnects with childhood friend Oscar (Jason Sudeikis), a good-natured bar owner with a coterie of drinking […]
Ten years ago, Anne Hathaway played the personal assistant to high-strung fashion magazine mogul Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep) in “The Devil Wears Prada”. Now, a decade later, Hathaway is the passionate, stressed-out, bike-riding-at-the-office boss of her own successful online fashion company and 72-year-old Robert De Niro is “The Intern” – though he quickly becomes much […]
“Rio 2” is the sequel to 2011’s animated musical hit from Blue Sky Studios, the makers of the “Ice Age” series. “Rio” had a very average story, eye-popping, candy-colored characters and over-the-top musical numbers. The same can be said for this sequel, which is unfortunately unlikable. Blu and Jewel (again voiced by Jesse Eisenberg and […]
