Love's Labour's Lost From the get-go, the movie is all ugly, no truth. Mike might be a little rough-edged, but Abby is a control freak, bossing everyone from underlings to blind dates. Something is very wrong when the beast is instantly more endearing than the beauty, and when a movie written by three women (two of whom did the very entertaining Legally Blonde, also directed by Luketic) becomes an unplanned essay in misogyny. Then again, everything goes awry here. A restaurant scene with Abby wearing vibrating underpants (a gloss on Meg Ryan's fake orgasm...
...must genuinely think that nothing will happen—a shocking case of hubris. Sure, politicians often believe they are invincible, that the laws of man don’t apply to them. Berlusconi is no exception, but this arrogance is a different kind of beast. It appears that Silvio Berlusconi thinks he can stop an earthquake, that his grasp on Italy is so tight he can control even nature within...

(Also, the prom's on the seventh...
...Aside from Ferrell fatigue and near-libelous reviews, there's another explanation for Land of the Lost's becoming the season's first pricey roadkill. After Night at the Museum 2 and Up, it was the third consecutive action comedy with at least one prehistoric beast. In two weeks, Jack Black and Michael Cera will play the dino-comedy card again with Year One. Sony, the film's distributor, might want to reposition Year One's marketing to emphasize its pedigree as a Judd Apatow comedy (from which The Hangover was clearly spawned), and to sell the primitive wilderness that...
