...Appaloosa isn't a revisionist western, like the Sam Peckinpah and Sergio Leone films of the 1960s and '70s, which revitalized the genre and pretty much wore it out; this one is ordinary and borderline ornery. It lacks the verve of 3:10 to Yuma, the sullen sweep of Brad Pitt's Jesse James epic, the deranged energy of Sukiyaki Western Django, to name just three oaters from last year.

President Fernandez argues that inflation has been "overstated" and that independent estimates of an annual 25% rise in prices are "not serious." The government claims the inflation rate is only 9%. But inflation is probably the main reason for the drop in her poll ratings, says Sergio Berensztein, whose polling company, Poliarquia, has recorded the plummeting numbers of the President: "It is a sudden drop of 20 points in the two months since the farm crisis began." While the public mood began to shift at the end of her husband's tenure, Berensztein says several factors gave it impetus after...

...background to concentrate on the character who, if the movies follow the books, will dominate the next two films in the series. That's Caspian (Ben Barnes), the rightful heir to the throne of the Telmarines, who currently rule Narnia. He escapes the castle just before evil Lord Miraz (Sergio Castellitto) can kill him and is exiled among rancorous dwarfs, a talking badger, centaurs and minotaurs, the recently returned four Pevensie children and, after a high body count, Aslan (voiced by Liam Neeson...
