Reel Critics: 'Oblivion' a thinking man's thriller
Big-budget science-fiction movies are often vehicles for selling toys to kids and merchandise to adult fans. But there was a time when these films offered compelling visions of a strange future far beyond conventional thinking. "Forbidden Planet" in 1956,...

'Disconnect' review: Dated details, ever-valid feelings
**1/2 (out of four) I'd say I'm of two minds about “Disconnect,” but I think it's more like my mind and my heart don't agree on this one. For starters: IMDB plot summaries don't get much drier than, “A drama centered on a group of...

Movie review: 'Disconnect's' mayhem occurs in cyberspace
"Disconnect" doesn't need cars, fists or guns. Its tech-obsessed characters do enough damage with their keyboards. The first narrative feature from Henry-Alex Rubin (who directed the Oscar-nominated doc "Murderball") is to smartphones what "Crash" is to...Tags: Disconnect (movie), Andrea Riseborough, Paula Patton, Max Thieriot, Frank Grillo

Film's message blunt, clear ★★★
We unplug our phone from the charger, pop in our earbuds and go out to seize the day. We text compulsively, post on Facebook obsessively, and when it comes time to shop, date or hook up, we log on, boot up and tune out. That's the world we're living...

Movie Review: Crazy, Stupid Love
Frankly My Dear - Orlando SentinelRyan Gosling is ripped, randy and risible in “Crazy, Stupid Love,” an ensemble romantic farce that has the “serious” actor let his funny flag fly. Yeah, it's a Steve Carell comedy, sort of the dark, divorcing sequel to “... -
'Zathura'
Times Staff WriterYou know how when you open an old board game and there's that one piece missing and it keeps you from playing, or you can still play but it's just not as much fun as it should be?

'Around the Bend'
!["Around the Bend" is the kind of pan-generational, single-sex, multi-hankie family picture that would have starred Shirley MacLaine and Julia Roberts had it been made 20 years ago. Instead, it features Michael Caine as a dying, but still chipper, patriarch; Christopher Walken as a prodigal son who shows up just in time for redemption; Josh Lucas as the tense, resentful son he left behind; and Jonah Bobo as the saucer-eyed 6-year-old who takes it all in. It's got a desert road trip, a beat-up VW bus, a '60s soul soundtrack and Walken dancing around a campfire, unbidden. It's about fathers and sons and unbreakable bonds and sad, shameful pasts. Gentlemen, it's a male chick flick — "The Dirty Secrets of the Ya-Ya Brotherhood."](http://www.calendarlive.com/media/thumbnails/story/2004-10/14565381.jpg ""Around the Bend\" is the kind of pan-generational, single-sex, multi-hankie family picture that would have starred Shirley MacLaine and Julia Roberts had it been made 20 years ago.
