Yellow
Submarine (1968) Starring: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (The Beatles) Director: George Dunning Plot: The Beatles agree to help out Captain Fred and travel through strange lands aboard his Yellow Submarine to save Pepperland and its citizenry from the evil clutches of the Blue Meany. Review: This imaginative animated feature starring the 60's phenomenon The Beatles seems to come right out of someone's psychedelic trip. Yellow Submarine sums up in 90 minutes the sensibilities of a generation, and conveys it with a cartoon style completely different from the typical Disney fare. The colorful, zany animation, the surreal imagery, the tongue-in-cheek humor, the off-the-wall story and situations, and, of course, the classic Beatles songs all combine to make for a wonderful film experience. A real treat. Entertainment: 8/10 |

Your Friends and Neighbors (1998) Starring: Amy Brenneman, Aaron Eckhart, Ben Stiller Director: Neil Labute Plot: The story of three college buddies, now in their mid-thirties, their significant others, and their quest for good sex which leads them into the arms of people other than their present mates. Review: Another film that tries to portray the ugly side of American relationships (think One Night Stand, among others). Nothing really original here: the characters are not very interesting or sympathetic, the script is bland, and no new insights on relationships can be deemed from the film. At one point the story focuses on one of the friends, a misogynistic jerk, and his attitude towards relationships. A much better portrayal of the same character, and one that packs a greater punch, can be found in the director's previous offering In the Company of Men. Drama: 3/10 |
