...movie flirts with alien abductions, crop circles, Streisand jokes and familial reconciliation. The Curse of the Were-Rabbit, which extends Park?s Oscar-winning stop-motion short films to feature length, is about a creature that terrorizes townsfolk by eating their prize vegetables. With their usual precision and fey wit, Park and his Aardman colleagues have created a horror-romance that owes as much to Jane Austen's social comedies as to the Hammer monster movies of yore.

But Foxx is forced to do the best he can with a one-dimensional role and Chris Cooper is wasted as a stereotypically foul-mouthed, hard-edged officer. “Jarhead”’s characters annoyingly avoid any mention of Bush...
