...plays that actually works better as a film. Just ask Quentin Tarantino--this summer, he starred in a miserably static Broadway production of the play that paled in comparison to the genuinely frightening 1967 film starring Audrey Hepburn. In addition to its complex roles, which require subtle yet stead-fast interpretation, it is an immensely technical production filled with lighting and staging tricks that require consistently perfect timing. Thus, when the Adams House Drama Society announced that it was staging Wait Until Dark in the claustrophobic Pool Theater, eyebrows were raised all over campus and curiosity was piqued...

Though the character of Allen, as well as those of the other actors (voiced by Dan Akroyd, Anne Bancroft, Sylvester Stalone and Jennifer Lopez among others), takes some of the edge off the hackneyed plot, Antz fails to fully engage. If computer animation was begging for something with epic, imperialistic proportions...
