| Le Anne of Tinsel And Tine | 75 | - What I like is how many points of view and agendas get woven together to tell this story: Rachel (Drew Barrymore) is the spokesperson for Greenpeace and former girlfriend of Adam. She's militant, headstrong, and good at making the powers that be in Washington look bad in the press. Ted Danson superbly plays the wealthy, arrogant, cocksure Oil Magnet with a God complex. I doubt Danson had to do much acting to play this part. (full review) |
| CinemaVisitor Erik | 50 | - Based on true events, this family drama about saving whales is easy on the brain, sentimental and simple. Typical Sunday afternoon film. (full review) |
