Based on Janet Fitch’s best selling novel of the same name, White Oleander plays more like a four part drama on life-lessons than as a cohesive, conventional thriller.  With such a uniquely constructed narrative, it becomes more of a character piece, and is refreshingly different in its own right from many of the revenge thrillers for women to date.  The title refers to a flower that is beautiful to look at, small and fragile, but is deadly poisonous to all that try to consume it.  As the flower is, so are the ladies of this film, a nice metaphor from which to surround the main theme of death and possession. 

Although it sports a solid cast, White Oleander’s main star is Alison Lohman (Matchstick Men, Big Fish), a relative unknown, playing the teenage girl, Astrid.  Her mother Ingrid (Pfeiffer, I Am Sam) is a quasi-hippie poet who instills in Astrid a sense of independence from others, although constantly trying to influence her herself.  Ingrid falls in love with another man, but is heart-broken when he decides to date other women.  The man is later found dead and Ingrid is accused and sentenced to 35-to-life in prison, sending Alison to a life of foster homes.  Outside of the direct influence of her mother, she begins to adapt to the lives of others, some opportunists, some victims, but all chaotic in the life of the young girl, and none of whom meet mom’s approval.  Ingrid preaches using her beauty for survival and freedom, but the hypocrisy is evident when not allowing her own daughter to survive and be free from her own mother.

White Oleander is very much a woman’s film, but that’s not to say it won’t appeal to men.  This just means that the themes of beauty and how to use it will be much more resonant and readily understood if you happen to be female.  That said, this type of film is not much seen outside of the Lifetime channel, so it does make for refreshing fare when given the big screen treatment.  Solid actresses fill the film, and colorful characters keeps the situations engaging, even if the eccentricities send the film into an unrealistic realm of fiction.  However, unlike many so-called chick flicks that have come before, the feminist bent is much stronger, repudiating the need and reliance on men, and reversing the usual mushy, tearjerker core and filling it with ice cold defiance.

Not everyone will be in tune with the less-than-concrete plotting, and somewhat subdued symbolic structure to understand what the movie is all about, although even taken on face value, there is a ease in watching the characters interact.  Like life, the structure isn’t straight-forward and the solutions aren’t always pat, making White Oleander a surprisingly complex film for those who like to pick out the deconstruction of female archetypes.  It’s a pessimistic, dark, and somewhat mean film, but does ultimately deliver a message that even amid the most abhorrent of conditions, a flower can bloom.

Saving Silverman (Video Preview).avi	15.86 MB	DOWNLOAD

Jason Biggs, having cornered the lovelorn loser market with American Pie, Loser, and Boys and Girls, plays that same note again with the critical disaster Saving Silverman. Biggs stars as Darren Silverman, a young man utterly obsessed with Neil Diamond and consistently maintaining a zero batting average with the fairer sex. His string of failures seems to turn around when his lifelong buddies (Steve Zahn and High Fidelity’s Jack Black) steer him towards Judith, an unapproachable ice princess played by Amanda Peet. Judith quickly dominates Darren, bending him to her indomitable will and forbidding him to have even the slightest contact with his two fellow Neil Diamond fanatics. This doesn’t go over particularly well with his old pals, who scheme to kidnap Judith and reunite Darren with Sandy, his old high school crush and fellow cheerleader (Amanda Detmer, who co-starred with Biggs in Boys and Girls, my pick for the worst movie of 2000). Needless to say, wackiness ensues.

I was spared the torment and agony of seeing the Saving Silverman trailer beforehand. If I were that unfortunate, I’m positive I wouldn’t have bothered giving this disc a spin. The end result, as hard as it may be to believe, is not nearly as bad as the trailer would seem to indicate. Saving Silverman didn’t have me to wall-to-wall hysterics, but I found myself laughing more frequently than at any other comedy I’ve seen in the past year. It’s not a particularly witty movie, but it seems dumb by design, still rarely resorting to the banal humor of its mindless, ejaculate-driven competition. Saving Silverman unquestionably has its flaws, particularly numerous terrible jokes that bob around lifeless in the comedy pool, but enough of the gags work to make this movie worth at least a rental.

There’s no indication on the disc or its packaging what the ‘racy never before seen footage’ in this R-rated version of Saving Silverman is, exactly. Dennis Dugan’s commentary points mostly towards “no-no” words and phrases, along with two lengthy and largely non-offensive scenes cut for pacing. Those picking up the R-rated version in the hopes of being treated to the sort of additional nudity the expanded Road Trip offered may find themselves disappointed.

Video: Saving Silverman is presented at 1.85:1 and is, not surprisingly, enhanced for widescreen televisions. The film is bursting with color, and those bold hues seem accurately reproduced on this DVD release. Black levels and shadow delineation are both excellent, and the image is crisp and detailed. Grain, assorted specks, and print flaws never rear their nasty heads to any appreciable extent. This is a typically solid effort from Columbia/Tri-Star, but there’s a slight error with the packaging. The sleeve states that full-screen and widescreen versions of Saving Silverman are available on separate sides of the disc, but this DVD is single-sided. Whoops. I would hope no one reading this review would have even the slightest interest in a presentation that alters the original aspect ratio, so it’s not a big loss.

Audio: Both stereo surround and Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtracks are selectable on Saving Silverman. As is typical with comedies, Saving Silverman is driven by dialogue, with most of the auditory interest located front and center. Surrounds are reserved mostly for Mike Simpson’s rather nice synth-rock score and Neil Diamond-tasticness, though the occasional effect will hop over into the rear portions of the soundscape, such as Jack Black’s head being dunked in a toilet. The Dolby Digital 5.1 audio doesn’t sport the sort of flashiness that DVD message board devotees seem to crave, but this track is pretty much in keeping with the genre and just what a film like this needs.

Supplements: Director Dennis Dugan recorded the commentary track shortly before Saving Silverman opened theatrically. The informal, chatty discussion is heavy on pointing out Happy Gilmore alumni and comments about which gags struck Dugan as funny, each occurring often enough to make for a pretty rowdy drinking game. There’s a decent amount of technical information tossed into the mix, and the inventive Dugan goes into detail about a camera rig he developed himself for photographing motorcycle footage. Regardless of your feelings about Saving Silverman or (shudders) Big Daddy, next time you watch a movie where a character is puttering around on a Harley and doesn’t seem as stiff or lifeless as normal, you may very well have Dennis Dugan to thank. Dugan also answers one of the questions I had from the get-go — how could someone as young as Jason Biggs pal around in the same classes as the considerably older Steve Zahn and Jack Black? No, I’m not familiar with suspension of disbelief. The director’s enthusiasm for the film itself and the talent involved is evident, helping in some small way to overcome the frequent brief gaps of silence and repetition.

Dugan mentions in the commentary that he had pulled out some of Jack Black’s mascot dancing footage specifically for this DVD release, which turns up as part of the three and a half minutes of outtakes. The majority of these bits are just flubbed lines, something I don’t personally find hysterical, but it’s still nice to see a little something extra added to a DVD.

An anamorphic widescreen trailer for Saving Silverman is featured alongside trailers for other CTHV releases featuring the film’s cast and crew, including Dennis Dugan’s Big Daddy, Jason Biggs’ Loser, Amanda Peet’s Whipped, and Jack Black’s The Cable Guy. All of those additional trailers are full-frame with the exception of the 16×9-enhanced Loser. Rounding out the supplements are filmographies for Dennis Dugan, Jason Biggs, Jack Black, Steve Zahn, and Amanda Peet.

Conclusion: Like far too many comedies, Saving Silverman doesn’t really offer much replay value beyond the first couple of viewings, though it has enough laughs to make for a solid rental. Rent it.

The most interesting Screenshots for the “Shaggy Dog, The” movie:

Shaggy Dog, The

I’m not sure "Who let the dogs out?", but this dog belongs to Disney.  Please, send it back.

Tim Allen (Christmas with the Kranks, Who is Cletis Tout?) stars as deputy district attorney Dave Douglas, whose latest case involves prosecuting his daughter’s biology teacher, who has been accused of setting an animal testing lab on fire.  The lab in question happens to be performing radical experiments using the genes of an apparently 300-year-old sheep dog from Tibet, hoping that splicing the gene into other animals will result in humans living vastly longer lives.  The dog escapes, gets semi-adopted by Douglas’ family, and promptly bites Dave, injecting him somehow with magic doggy genes that cause him to exhibit some very dog-like behavior before completely being transformed into a sheep dog himself.  Complications within Dave’s marriage and the animal rights case are compounded, followed by efforts by the ringleader of the animal testing facility, Dr. Kozak (Downey Jr., Good Night and Good Luck), to apprehend Dave for more sinister, grotesque tests.

Seriously, if you didn’t know that The Shaggy Dog is a remake combining two popular live-action Disney films, you’d read the above plotline and wonder how in the world such an awful idea for a family film could ever be made by a major studio.  Disney has obviously bought into the notion that people out there really find Tim Allen a funny enough physical comedian to want to see behaving like a dog.  Think again.  Tim Allen eating face-first into a bowl of cereal isn’t funny.  Tim Allen lifting his leg to pee isn’t funny.  Tim Allen chasing a cat across the street on all fours isn’t funny.  Heck, let’s face it, Tim Allen isn’t funny.

Every possible canine activity is explored, with the possible exception of Tim Allen humping a stranger’s leg, licking his own balls, or getting "knotted" with his wife during the lovemaking act.  Not that these five screenwriters and director would never think to do something like that (their individual previous efforts include low-brow features like Ready to Rumble, Bad Boys II, Daddy Day Care, and The Prince & Me), but being Disney, they obviously were shooting for no more than a PG rating.  I suppose given the level of bad taste they were already willing to explore, we should all be thankful for that restriction.  Having already endured the similar Rob Schneider vehicle, The Animal, I certainly didn’t want to see the same thing done all over again with an equally desperate Tim Allen.

Perhaps the worst aspect of this already difficult-to-stomach film happens to be the conception of the special effects.  It’s one thing to have to endure Tim Allen emerging from his dog-like state without any clothing on (speaking of, where does his clothing go?), but did all of the effects have to have a level of cheesy bad taste to them to make me feel queasy in my seat?  Watching snakes with bushy tails, dog-frogs, furry dog genes injected in bloodstreams, and sheep dogs with Allen’s eyes is about as disturbing to witness as any gore-laden horror film in recent memory.  What’s worse, none of these depictions of inhumane mutations are funny in the slightest fashion.

The Shaggy Dog isn’t the worst film of the year, but it may certainly rank as the toughest to have to endure for many that actually expect huge-budgeted releases featuring many big-name stars to be at least somewhat worthwhile.  Given the track records of everyone involved in this monstrous menagerie of disturbing sights and sounds, I suppose I should have braced myself by not eating for at least a half-hour before the movie, as my stomach was on the verge of turning at several times throughout the film.  Warning to parents: taking your children to this may result in an alert to child protective custody for possible abuse charges.

PETA members, you may like the anti-animal testing messages, but I have to disagree on one point; I know of at least one Shaggy Dog that deserves to be put to sleep.

Big Hit, The Reviewed By Rob Gonsalves Posted 01/02/07 12:32:05

"I still think it’s the worst movie of its decade." (Total Crap)

Is Quentin Tarantino the worst thing to happen to American movies in the ’90s? In a rational, cool-headed moment, you’d probably say no. But after suffering through some of the Tarantinoid rip-offs of the last couple of years — like ‘2 Days in the Valley’ and the abominable ‘The Big Hit’ — you catch yourself wishing that ‘Reservoir Dogs’ and ‘Pulp Fiction’ had flopped, so that no wannabe-hip filmmakers would want to emulate him and no studio would want to bankroll the rip-offs.The Big Hit wants to be ironic and grisly in the tradition of Tarantino, mixing blood ‘n’ guts with knee-slappers (two guys dump trash bags full of severed limbs into a car trunk — that’s the movie’s first shot), but it achieves only a jokey tone of free-floating triviality. The script, by rookie writer Ben Ramsey, is among the most disgraceful screenplays ever to be produced by a major studio (Tri-Star). It plays as if written by Tarantino’s cretinous evil twin — it has no connection whatsoever to life outside video stores, and almost everyone on the screen is annoying and shallow. Mark Wahlberg is the "hero," Melvin Smiley, a soft-hearted hit man who wants to please everyone. "I can’t stand it when people don’t like me," he says — which raises the question of why he got into killing for hire. Essentially, Melvin is Dirk Diggler with a big gun instead of a big schlong; both characters are too sensitive for the callous lives they lead. One gets the impression that Wahlberg is trying to atone for his real-life street-punk background by playing doe-eyed male waifs in movies like this and Boogie Nights. But at least he isn’t actively irritating. No, that honor is reserved for Lou Diamond Phillips, who plays Cisco, Melvin’s duplicitous partner. Cisco kidnaps a Japanese student (China Chow), the daughter of a big executive who’s just gone broke making a flop movie. When Cisco learns that the student is the goddaughter of his menacing boss Paris (Avery Brooks, wasted here), he frames Melvin and spends many scenes flashing his fake gold tooth and beating a certain twelve-letter epithet into the ground. Phillips is doing a Gary Oldman turn (specifically, Oldman’s Drexl the dreadlocked pimp in True Romance), but the problem is that Phillips is to Oldman what Cheez Whiz is to caviar. The director-for-hire here is Che-Kirk Wong, who did the well-respected Jackie Chan film Crime Story, and he throws in a lot of impressive stuntwork. Too bad the unscannable Cuisinart editing turns it into gibberish. The worst thing about the editing is what it leaves in. I, for one, would have deleted each and every frame dealing with Melvin’s fianc?e (Christina Applegate) and her dreadful Jewish-stereotype parents (Lainie Kazan and Elliott Gould), as well as the material about his other girlfriend (Lela Rochon), who keeps harping on him to make money to pay her bills. But this is really nitpicking — the entire movie is composed of scenes that go nowhere. For an example of an excellent movie that does everything this film so ineptly tries to do, look at Grosse Pointe Blank, from which The Big Hit swipes so blatantly that John Cusack should get a screen credit. GPB was about something besides hipster irony and farcical violence; The Big Hit is about nothing except cynicism and sensation. It’s the worst of the worst — an example of a new lazy trend in screenwriting, wherein the writer just assembles cool stuff from other movies that he wants to see all together in one movie. Tarantino does that, too, but he can get away with it because he writes sizzling dialogue and rich characters. If only the new hipsters emulated those Tarantinoid trademarks! But skillful characterization — even competent characterization — seems quite beyond them.So I end with another question: ‘The Big Hit’ will very likely be the worst major release of the year, but would I go so far as to call it the worst film of the decade? In a rational, cool-headed moment, I might say no. But I think of ‘Pulp Fiction’ and the great independent-film renaissance it could have inspired, and then I think of miserable shit like this, which is what it actually has inspired … I don’t know; it’s a tough call. What movie of the ’90s could be worse than ‘The Big Hit’?

Employee of the Month (Video Preview).avi	20.06 MB	DOWNLOAD

As it opens to the staccato electro-pop of Devo’s cover of the R&B tune “Working in the Coal Mine,” director Greg Coolidge’s debut feature “Employee of the Month” shows the goings-on in a big-box retail store, here named Super Club. Shoppers reach for oversize tubs of hair gel or extra-large boxes of condoms as workers file into their places for another day of consumer paradise at a discount. It is the last time the film, with a screenplay credited to Coolidge, Don Calame and Chris Conroy, will engage meaningfully with its rather loaded setting, which only underlines the mindless, distracted vapidity of the main action. Zack (stand-up comic Dane Cook) has been an entry-level box boy for going on 10 years, while his co-worker Vince (Dax Shepard) has risen up the moderate ladder of promotions that will place him on a management track. Vince is in line to win “Employee of the Month” for the 18th straight time, when a pretty new cashier (singer and tabloid staple Jessica Simpson) transfers in from another store and is rumored to date only “E. of M.” winners. After she offers passing encouragement to both men, Zack engages his longtime nemesis Vince in a battle for the month’s title. ADVERTISEMENT Cook’s stage persona is based on exaggeration and repetition, as his outsized gestures and elongated pronunciations make bullet points for where the punch lines come in. Stripped of his usual delivery, he struggles to convey regular-guy likability, coming across instead as alternately flat or arrogant. At one point Cook’s character goes on to Simpson about how great it is to meet a beautiful girl who is also so cool. If only her part had some trace of character to convey that she were anything but blandly “the girl.” From the moment of her entrance, a bouncy, slo-mo walk across the store, Simpson is asked to do nothing more than fulfill the film’s prerequisite for boobs and teeth and shiny hair. In that respect she inhabits her role accordingly. The film never gets at the emotional drudgery or actual labor of working, or even particularly pauses to consider the essential smallness of the Employee of the Month contest, grown men competing literally for a daily gold star. This may be a just-for-fun comedy, but that shouldn’t mean that it must entirely disconnect from the world. ‘Employeeof the Month’ MPAA rating: PG-13 for crude and sexual humor, and language A Lionsgate release. Director Greg Coolidge. Screenplay Don Calame, Chris Conroy, Greg Coolidge. Story Don Calame, Chris Conroy. Director of photography Anthony B. Richmond. Editors Kimberley Ray, Tom Lewis. Running time: 1 hour, 43 minutes. In general release.

Are we there yet? (Video Preview).avi	14.91 MB	DOWNLOAD

From the moment you hear the name Ice Cube (Barbershop, Torque) associated with a genre that is usually described as "heartwarming", "cute", or "fun for the whole family", you know something must be amiss right from the conceptual stage (he is partially responsible for the creation of it to soften his image).  The irony is that he isn’t really bad in the movie, but damn near everything else is.  Taking a look at the credential of its director, Brian Levant, I suppose you know what you’re getting yourself into.  His resume includes equally unfunny, broad comedies like Jingle All the Way, Problem Child 2, and Snow Dogs.  Looks like someone’s overdue in having his director’s license revoked.

The premise of this latest insult to the intelligence of your common moviegoer is that kid-hating sports memorabilia salesman, Nick (Ice Cube), becomes so enamored with an attractive professional woman named Suzanne (Nia Long, Alfie), that he agrees to not only overlook the fact that she has two children, Kevin and Lindsey, but he even volunteers to take the children to catch a flight from Portland to Vancouver to meet her while she’s on a business trip. Through a series of contrived mishaps, they can’t go by plane, or even by train, so all that’s left is Nick’s brand spanking-new SUV to take the two brats, who are adamantly opposed to their mother seeing anyone instead of their estranged father (Henry Simmons, Taxi), up to Vancouver himself.  With Nick hating kids, and the kids hating this potential obstacle between their parents getting back together, it soon becomes a battle of the fittest to see if Nick can get the kids to their mother without going completely over the edge as they make his life a living hell every step of the way.

Are We There Yet? may be a PG movie, generally considered safe for family viewing, but it has a surprising crudeness that leaves a nasty aftertaste.  As you’d expect, the children are sadistic brats, who find enjoyment in doing bodily harm to all of their mother’s would–be suitors, with almost no regard for the damage they do or the disastrous potential results of their actions.  Then there are the bodily function jokes, including a flatulent babysitter, a boy urinating in a woman’s face, and a horrendously crude projectile vomiting scene that almost resulted in me doing the same.  The mother comes off as shallow and petulant, leading many of us in the viewing audience with the feeling that the father that walked away from this family probably did the right thing. 

Then there are the curious mixed messages of the film, where Ice Cube tries to impart some knowledge about not getting too attached to material things.  This seems disingenuous for a man whose sole occupation is the selling of material objects in the form of sports memorabilia, and who drives around in a brand new SUV, complete with spinning chrome rims.  Later, he pays the children to keep their traps shut, offers them presents, and even gives them his "blingage".  One wonders if the children feel a change of heart toward him solely due to the fact that since daddy doesn’t want them, they can milk as many presents out of him as possible. 

Almost everything that occurs can be predicted long beforehand, as you can almost see the gears shifting in the background throughout this wholly mechanical plot.  Without much inspiration or originality, the film’s purpose is quite clear — to make Ice Cube palatable enough to mainstream audiences for him to enjoy more commercial vehicles.  Perhaps it is successful in this regard, as Cube does show a softer side that doesn’t seem too artificial, although one can’t help but intentionally laugh as he handles the saccharine romance elements, which are among the film’s worst moments.  It doesn’t help that Nia Long’s character is as shallow and bland as a female lead has been in a semi-romantic comedy, whose only real assets seems to be her winning smile and generously low-cut dresses.

Pure dross, Are We There Yet? offers only stereotypical characterizations and a heaping helping of mean-spiritedness, alternating with spoon-fed, mindless pap.  Unless you enjoy purely unoriginal slapstick comedy of the broadest variety, my recommendation is to stay far, far away from this idiotic excursion into unfathomable inanity.  Also, if you are a fan of legendary pitcher Satchel Paige, you’d have to be disgusted at the stereotypical way he is portrayed (voiced by SNL alum, Tracy Morgan) as a jive-talking bobble-head doll (If this were in a movie with predominantly white characters, it would be universally branded as racist).   Don’t subject yourself to this toxic concoction.  It’s a film so bad that, just like the title quandary asked by anxious children on any road trip, you’ll keep asking yourself throughout, "Is it over yet?"

Remember Pearl Harbor (1942)

The First Far Eastern

Pearl Harbor is something to remember, but Republic’s “Remember Pearl Harbor” definitely is not. For this cheap little action drama, which popped into Loew’s Criterion yesterday, has nothing to recommend it save its title, nothing in the way of a story that isn’t old. In it, Don (Red) Barry, the Republic Western star, assumes the more dignified moniker of Donald M. Barry and tries to act without his horse. But the routine is tiresomely familiar and Mr. Barry is just a transplanted cow-poke.

“Remember Pearl Harbor“—which makes only a brief reference to that famed fortification, by the way—tells of an Army deserter out in the Philippines who falls in with some Axis fifth columnists, innocently helps them set the stage for the invading Japs and then turns upon the swarming villains when he discovers their treacherous ruse. Everything about it fits a pattern, even to the arrival of the Army in the nick of time. Everything about it sadly tokens artificiality and bad taste.

Guess we’ll just have to accept it as the first of the Far Easterns. There’ll be more.

REMEMBER PEARL HARBOR; original screen play by Malcolm Stuart Boylan and Isabel Dawn; directed by Joseph Santley for Republic Pictures. At Loew’s Criterion.

Matador, The

The Matador is a refreshing, irreverent comedy that easily goes down as one of the best comedies of 2005.  At its heart, it is a buddy formula flick, although it never truly adheres to conventions, as it goes down familiar roads in its own unique way.  Bolstered by a terrific performance by Pierce Brosnan (After the Sunset, Laws of Attraction), perhaps his best in a feature film to date, this is a wholly likeable dark comedy full of quirky but well-rounded characters and little touches in the character development that sets it apart from other films of a similar nature. Brosnan stars as Julian Noble, one of the world’s most efficient assassins for hire, doing gigs for high prices for rich clients.  His latest job is in Mexico, and during his stay there he meets and befriends a down-and-out American businessman named Danny Wright (Kinnear, Stuck on You), who is there trying to nail down a deal that will put him back on track to be a successful salesman again.  The budding friendship is on shaky ground as it is, thanks to Noble’s uncouth demeanor, but things really take a new twist once Julian reveals that he is an assassin by trade.  Although Brosnan will get the lion’s share of the accolades for this film’s success, and deservedly so, it should be mentioned that equally up to the task is writer-director Richard Shepard, easily his best, getting the most out of his appealing actors and telling his story with just the right amount of mystery, color, and panache.  Although there are serious implications in the nature of Julian’s business, and some ramifications that don’t bode well in his favor, Shepard deftly is able to keep the proper tone throughout the film, which is light, mirthful, and spirited.  He wisely keeps most of the violence off-screen so that we don’t too caught up in the reality of what it is that he does. The Matador is a wicked, smart and funny comedy worth seeing for adults in the mood for a fun time.  If this were to turn into a franchise, not unlike the Bond films that Brosnan was such a big part of, I would not mind one bit.

The most interesting Screenshots for the “Stateside” movie:

Reverge Anselmo’s romantic drama “Stateside” strives to uphold the U.S. Marine Corps motto “Semper Fidelis” — always faithful — but leans more heavily toward “love means never having to say you’re sorry,” the platitudinous tagline of the 1970 sob fest “Love Story,” without, for better or worse, hitting the melodramatic highs and lows of that film. Ostensibly about the love affair between a young Marine and an actress/rock ‘n’ roller suffering from schizophrenia, the film is plagued by Anselmo’s inability to focus on the heart of his story. The first half of the film is devoted essentially to exposition and back story. ADVERTISEMENT The film opens in 1984 in a military hospital where Marine Mark Deloach (Jonathan Tucker) is recuperating from combat injuries. It quickly flashes back four years, and we are introduced to Dori Lawrence (Rachael Leigh Cook), a troubled young artist, as she melts down on a film set and while performing with her band at the Whisky. Her manager sends her home to Connecticut to get some rest. Meanwhile, Deloach, a silver-spoon-fed high school student, participates in a prank that leads to a drunken driving arrest. His father (Joe Mantegna) cuts a deal that sends him to Parris Island, S.C., and Marine boot camp in lieu of doing jail time. Under the watchful eye of sadist-with-a-heart-of-gold drill instructor Val Kilmer, Deloach sheds his rich-kid skin to transform physically as well emotionally. Despite Anselmo’s own experience as a Marine, the sequence plays like a generic compendium of other boot camp movie dramas and only serves to delay the moment that love will have its say. When we next encounter Dori, she is in a mental institution, conveniently rooming with Sue DuBois (Agnes Bruckner of “Blue Car”), one of the victims of Mark’s DUI accident. After brief encounters between Dori and Mark, the couple are smitten. To get to this point, however, it has taken nearly half the movie, and things must move quickly to reach a conclusion. The film manages to hit all the emotional beats, but most land with a resounding thud. Mark’s devotion to Dori is touching but also blindingly selfish in his inability to recognize how ill she really is. Her therapist (Diane Venora) insists that Mark’s comings and goings are not helping Dori. The film’s big dramatic question revolves around whether he can be mature enough to give up Dori for her own good. Cook and Tucker display some chemistry in their puppy-dog canoodling, but the rapidity with which the romance plays out keeps any real sparks from flying. When the words “based on a true story” appear on a movie screen, as they do here, they as often as not serve to trumpet the veracity of events that come across on screen as false. Rather than trying to cram in every detail for authenticity, a more adept filmmaker would take dramatic license in hand and use the “true story” as a starting point to create genuine drama. Whether adapting from life or from fiction, “Semper Fidelis” is not necessarily a good motto for filmmakers. ‘Stateside‘ MPAA rating: R, for language, some sexuality/nudity and underage drinking Times guidelines: Sadism, disturbing emotional behavior; the nudity is of the topless stripper variety.

The most interesting Screenshots for the “Trauma” movie:

I'm always on the prowl for a great undiscovered indie. So many are
made, so few live up to their promise. Open Water and the Blair Witch
Project, while marketable and financially successful, did not feel like
professional efforts. They were not engrossing, the writing was
simplistic at best, and most people I've spoken with were left
unsatisfied.

Head Trauma is an example of smooth masterful direction, coupled with
logical and clever writing that turns what could've been just another
rushed indie effort, into something much more satisfying. I was very
pleasantly surprised. On the downside, the lead actor, while
satisfactory, clearly isn't a professional. At the same time, he might
be just be effective enough to keep the film afloat.

The film moves at a slow deliberate pace, and managed to keep me
engrossed the entire running time. Some of the scare moments are very
effective, and the ending, is far more logical than any of the resent
Hollywood entries to the horror genre.

Highly recommended.
