Nerds Triumph: Adult Humor Gets Knocked Down a Pegnew
American movies appear to be regressing at an alarming rate. The cinema has long fixated on the cliques, bullies, social embarrassment and occasional good times of high school, but stories about middle schoolers generally have been limited to Nickelodeon and Disney Channel programs.

With 'American Casino,' Andrew and Leslie Cockburn Recast the Recession as Civil Rights Storynew
With more spark than a Frontline documentary and less pretense than whatever Michael Moore has cooking, American Casino is the best film so far to explain the US economic crisis.

Boy Meets Girl, European Stylenew

'Changeling' is a Perfect Example of 'Oscar Bait'new
Changeling is not an excellent film and, if it wins Best Picture, it would be a travesty, the likes of which haven't been seen since the 2007 victory of The Departed or the 2006 win for Crash. Alas, as of yet, the field this year is weak, with Space Chimps and Beverly Hills Chihuahua both in discussion as possible dark horse contenders.

Stereotypes are Somewhat Ignored in 'Save Me'new
Save Me plays like a cross between an after-school special, a Lifetime Network cautionary tale and an episode of Queer as Folk. Sound good? Then you're certain to give it two snaps up with a twist.

Michael Moore's 'Slacker Uprising' is Worth the Pricenew
Had it been released theatrically, Slacker Uprising would have certainly been a critical and commercial flop. It lacks both the power and the controversy that made his normal, topic-based films successful.
