...Forgive the effusions of an alter-kocker fanboy, but the flinty glamour of Li and Yeoh - buttressed by the stolid, sneering presence of top Hong Kong villain Anthony Wong Chau-sang (who in 1993 appeared in 15 films!) - is the best reason to catch this third in the series of Indiana Jones knockoffs. Brendan Fraser returns as adventurer Rick O'Connell, who, after vanquishing the same mummy twice in the 1999 and 2001 films, finally gets a new old adversary. But it's the Hong Kong veterans who are entrusted with Mummy III's real action, physically and dramatically...

Russia had run roughshod over Holland - the odds-on favorite and tournament glamour boys - in the quarters, pouring into the Dutch end like the relentless rains that seemed to show up at every kickoff of Euro 2008.

Today, Old New Amsterdam is pushing 400, and it still looks fabulous...
...With some 40,000 professionals in attendance, Cannes is the world's largest annual convention, and a yearly thermometer for the temperature of the seventh art. Some come for the deals (producers want to sell their movies to every market from Thailand to Tierra del Fuego), some for the glamour (the parade of beautiful people can give even the most jaded visitor a kind of whiplash of the eyes), some for the parties (free food! free wine! possible sightings of Clint and Brangelina!). But the 2,000 critics are here on a monastic mission. Renouncing the beaches and the usually...
