...Greek and Roman mythology; Reeves, a former Mr. America, Mr. World and Mr. Universe whose previous claim to fame had been a costarring role in Ed Wood's Jail Bait, went on to star in a Hercules sequel, then as Aeneas and Romulus. After him came other musclemen: Reg Park in Hercules Conquers Atlantis, Ed Fury in Ursus, Son of Hercules, Mark Forest in Mole Men vs. the Son of Hercules. Well-tended flesh was as important to these movies as to 300, as were the decorous women and extravagant battle scenes...
...again. In Britain we were being slaughtered, and we were mighty thankful to see the Yanks occupying our countryside, I can tell you. Thank God there were no Kinsleys around wanting to bring the boys home when the going got tough. By comparison, Iraq is a walk in the park. Reg Brissenden, Dorset, England...
...officer was dispatched to Soldiers Field Park to take a report of a stolen red velvet jewelry bag valued at $20 that contained a silver tennis bracelet valued at $2,000, a gold & pearl bracelet valued at $100, a pair of white crystal earrings valued at $50, a pair of 14-karat gold earrings valued at $100, a copper and crystal Swarovski earring and necklace set valued at $300, a gold and brown crystal necklace valued at $100, and a silver and gold watch valued...

Then director Bong Joon-ho sets one more plate spinning, with easy-to-spot political metaphors for U.S. influence in Korea and sleight-of-hand in Iraq. If this madly entertaining movie has a fault...
...poor Park family seems farcically overmatched by the monster. The sharpshooter dad runs out of bullets; the girl archery expert can't shoot straight. Actually, you won't want them to kill the monster, not right away, since it has lots of its own eccentricities. The creature is less vicious than playful, a showboating athlete that does high-bar 360s on a bridge rail and backflips into the river. When it hits land, it lopes like Marmaduke next to its ostensible victims; it treats any human in its mouth more as a chew toy than as lunch. If the movie...
