...talk about running. With the cops in hot pursuit, the doctor has to cross a freeway that surrounds Paris, with hundreds of cars screeching around him. We know all about freeways, don't we? They've been the locus of about a hundred high speed action sequences, always ending in spectacular crashes and conflagrations in American movies. Canet is much more rational in his handling of the sequence - just this lone guy dodging through the traffic, which naturally ends up in a nasty tangle, but not in a big time fireball. The result is a piece in which we retain...

...asada is better than yours, amigo!" Unlike the Lakers, however, you don't have to be Jack Nicholson to afford the top-of-the-line taco truck experience.

Most mornings Thelma Salazar, 70, meets her friends at the Cesar E. Chavez Community Center nestled in a garden next to the I-71 freeway less than a mile from Long Beach's busy industrial ports. Whether playing cards or eating meals, they rarely discuss politics.

...there is one thing you can be certain of in this world, it’s this: Freeway is on top of his shit. A hyperbolic claim? Perhaps, but the sophomore effort from the Philadelphia-based MC, “Free at Last,” is nonetheless a masterful blend of word and song. This is classical rap, if you will—much-needed passionate rhymes delivered in a world dominated by pop-infected, Top-40-intended hip-hop.
