...bored. Disregarding the fact that “Get Rich” is a Shady/Aftermath production and Marcus (50 Cent) rolls with the same fat dude (Omar Miller) that B. Rabbit runs with in “8 Mile,” comparisons to Eminem’s silver screen debut are still inevitable. The pitch is simple: Take one of the world’s most famous rappers and make a movie about his Horatio Algiers-like ascent from the gutter to the limelight. Easy, right? But unfortunately, “Get Rich” strays from...
...images and story he presents are such a faithful distillation of its source material that it’s ultimately the voice of creator J.K. Rowling that emerges most strongly. Emma Watson deserves straight Os in her acting OWLs for finally bringing a full-blooded Hermione to screen. She convincingly exudes incandescent giddiness in her scenes at the Yule Ball, and turns a brief confrontation with Ron over his belatedly asking her to the dance into a teary confessional spectacle.

While these visuals added to the atmosphere, they really were not necessary; the music was doing the heavy lifting. At once melodic and thunderous, Caribou put on a mesmerizing stage show.All the opener’s strengths only brought the Super Furry Animals’ weaknesses into...
...trashy new Clive Owen-Jennifer Aniston flick, in which he plays Winston, the philosophical gun-toting sidekick of Owen’s cheatin’ man. PRINCE RAKEEMMany rappers, from Ice-T to 50 Cent to Snoop Dogg have tried to make the jump to the silver screen, but RZA is trying to build his acting career slowly with character roles. He quoted his agent as saying, “I don’t want you to be the black guy in the movie, I want you to be the guy in the movie who happens to be black...
