Frank Langella delivers another Oscar-worthy performance in 'Robot & Frank'new

Idea for a movie: a former cat burglar showing early signs of Alzheimer's gets help in the form of a robot as a present from his son, so the man teaches the robot how to steal. A comedy, right? And probably a bad one. Unless, of course, the writing and the actors are first class.

Killer Joe Strikes Like an Unapologetic Texas Rattlesnakenew

If a film like 2011's sexually explicit British drama Shame taught us anything, it's that being slapped with a dreaded NC-17 rating these days doesn't always ensure a death sentence.
