		<description><![CDATA[You may have seen, over the past few decades, a few dozen movies featuring an unconventional teacher, who, when thrown in with uninspired kids, goes on to push them to a greatness no one ever expected of any of them.  Hamlet 2 definitely falls into this general category, but with tongue firmly planted in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the brilliant posters for American Teen echoes the iconic poster for the movie The Breakfast Club, including its overly dramatic tagline.  While &#8220;Heart-throb&#8221; Mitch seems a little shoe-horned into Judd Nelson&#8217;s &#8220;Criminal&#8221; position, the other leads in this film slide effortlessly into their pigeonholes…at first.  It&#8217;s true that today&#8217;s teenagers are the most [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Step Brothers is little more than an opportunity for two master riffers to face off in the ultimate Man-Child challenge.  There is a plot, but it only exists to give Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly (co-creators with director Adam McKay) some focus for their juvenilia.  While this sounds like a negative comment, it&#8217;s actually [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Full disclosure:  I watched the X-Files television series until the first movie came out.  I was so disgusted with the transparent clumsiness of the story (so much more forgivable on TV) that I stopped watching the show.  Curiosity and a cautious sort of press buzz (&#8221;it&#8217;s a stand-alone episodes even non-fans can love!&#8221;) drew me [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wow, what an experience!  The movie starts hard core with a crime in progress, a common every-day cinema crime.  All the rules are being broken again and again, making what was a workaday heist into a peek into the madness behind the perpetrator&#8217;s madness.  The Joker&#8217;s paradigm is eschew predictability, and the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My first exposure to the idea of this movie, I thought, who cares, don&#8217;t wanna see it.  Another freaking superhero movie, only this time it&#8217;s not based on anything famous and it stars Will Smith so they figure our love for him will save them from having to actually write a script (see: Men [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Matinee with Snacks
As always, Pixar preceded their feature with a short, called Presto.  The rabbit who stars is an atypical sort of character design for Pixar, which made me nervous initially.  Never fear!  Presto plays with the laws of cartoon physics in another lovely, wordless short that is reminiscent of the madcap [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oh thank heaven, Get Smart is funny.  If you are a fan of the show, there are enough little winks, nudges, and appropriately contextualized catch phrases to please you – but the movie doesn&#8217;t rely on them to carry itself.  If you&#8217;d never seen the show, nothing was needed to make this film [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[M. Night Shyamalan&#8217;s greatest talent, I think, is taking a brilliant cinematographer&#8217;s camera and pointing at something which is comprehensible but just off kilter, and doing it just so, in a way that makes the image and the content gel into an iconic Moment.  In the preview of The Happening, we have a shot [...]]]></description>
