Second, I'm starting a very small production company so we can finally get some decent dog movies out there instead of this junk with Cuba Gooding Jr. If I see one more mutt that overcomes the odds to become a firehouse dog or a shepherding dog, I'm going to barf up my food and not eat it afterward. I've got some feelers out for some scripts with dog antiheroes, someone cool who loves his pups but has to kill people who harbor the pirated DVDs he sniffs out. Because it's what he's been trained...
...reputation, North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il is said to have a fondness for foreign movies. It may be a decent bet that Groundhog Day - the goofy 1993 film in which Bill Murray relives the same day over and over again - is among them. The difference is, Murray does it in Punxsutawney, Pa., while Kim does it on the nuclear stage...
...small virtue and big flaw. This time Haggis is more open to his characters' drives and demons. The good guys, the ones so well played by Jones, Theron and Sarandon, have nuances worth noting; and even the ones capable of committing the most heinous crimes seem like decent people to whom some awful thing happened.

The combination of dedicated actors and a superior script helps make Elah a far more satisfying film than Crash...

Hard to like but essentially decent, Grub's an abrasive civilian and a violent player, the type who shows a teammate how to grab a rival and deliver "20 straight rights" to his head. Grub isn't coping with a changing game and looming retirement, and his crumbling sense of identity draws him into increasingly caustic clashes with deceitful club CEO "Colgate" Perry (John Jarratt) and Grub's stoical wife Emma, played superbly by Raelee Hill...
...frustrated and angry. Many now see Musharraf as little more than a U.S. stooge. Meanwhile, support for Bhutto's party, the Pakistan People's Party, has been weakened by the revelation that she is contemplating a deal. "We are all exasperated. She was a symbol of democratic values, of decent values, of political and religious moderation," says Iftikhar Gilani, a Law Minister under Bhutto. "Benazir has lost credibility because of this deal with a dictator." So a pairing could end up weakening both sides rather than strengthening them...
