Wow.
TrippHOST
[laughs]
Greg SwinehartHOST
All right.
Greg SwinehartHOST
From Variety, Owen Gleiberman says, the movie isn't badly made.
Greg SwinehartHOST
It's never less than watchable.
Greg SwinehartHOST
But a lot of pulp has been stuffed into its blender.
DamoHOST
Yeah.
WhiteyHOST
But Owen Gleiberman of Entertainment Weekly, "The director, John McNaughton, throws in one too many symbolic shots of alligators.
WhiteyHOST
They're predators-"
DamoHOST
[laughs]
Jordan SchmidtHOST
I don't know what they were talking about.
Jordan SchmidtHOST
Um, it's like when Scooby-Doo came out and the blurb that they used [laughs] for the review of that in Entertainment Weekly was, I think it was Owen Gleiberman as well, it was Ru- Ro- Raggy, "There's really something wrong with this rick sure." [laughs]
Mark HallamHOST
Oh, uh-oh, he's having a stroke.
Mark HallamHOST
No, I meant the Scooby-Doo review.
Josh BellHOST
So yeah, that's pretty good.
Josh BellHOST
So finally, Owen Gleiberman in Entertainment Weekly also mixed a bit.
Josh BellHOST
He said, it's a solid thriller, witty at times, and packed with extravagantly violent sequences in which helicopters, diesel trucks, and entire buildings are blown up with delirious gusto.
Josh BellHOST
Cameron, director of the first Terminator, Aliens, and the underrated deep-sea epic The Abyss, has become our reigning master of heavy metal action.
Dane McDonaldHOST
But yeah, I agree.
Dane McDonaldHOST
He's definitely more interesting now as a producer than a director um next review i'm going to speak to here this is owen gleiberman for ew uh he wrote this is a movie full of moments and performances to savor judy dench as the kabuki faced queen elizabeth gives one of those show-stopping performances as a royal figure who is truly royal miles above everyone in the room yet so relaxed about it that she can afford to mischievously tweak every pretense Best of all is Gwyneth Paltrow, who, at long last, has a movie to star and that's as radiant as she is.
Dane McDonaldHOST
Her Viola is truly Shakespeare's match, ardent in a contemplative, almost sacramental way.
Dane McDonaldHOST
Her emotions so luminous, they seem to be shining right through her skin.
Dane McDonaldHOST
But yeah, I agree.

TimHOST
Crystal's knack for creating average likable guys who are also funny makes the film a sentimental comedy filled with both slapstick and heart.
TimHOST
Owen Gleiberman said, There you go.
TimHOST
City Slickers ends up a poignant meditation on the aging process while offering edgy one-liners and ass-over-tee cuddle effects.
TimHOST
Yet it's really about how the West could never be more than a dream to contemporary urbanites.
Jacob RiveraHOST
I remember, so I used to subscribe to, it's not even a publication that's around anymore, but Entertainment Weekly.
Jacob RiveraHOST
And I remember reading an article, I think it was by Owen Gleiberman, where he was like doing a Toronto film festival, like recap.
Jacob RiveraHOST
And what a lot of times what I would do is I would read through this article.
Jacob RiveraHOST
And like, if something like, you know, like hit with people and like kind of sounded interesting, you know, I would go seek it out when it would be in the theater and like go to an independent theater in L.A., I mean, we have tons of independent theaters, you know, and sometimes you got to travel quite far, but you know, I was willing to do that.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
Roger Ebert named it the best film of the decade.
