  1. Paralympic Equestrian Gets By Without Arms

    We've all had those days when riding your horse feels more akin to driving a truck than having a "conversation" through the reins. No matter how hard you tug, your horse has other ideas. Well, the next time that happens, instead of cussing out your...

  2. 'The Incredible Hulk': Formulaic, But It Has Moments

    The Hulk may be "incredible," but he's no "Iron Man." But he's close, or at least close enough for fans.
    ORLANDO SENTINEL
    The Hulk may be "incredible," but he's no "Iron Man." But he's close, or at least close enough for fans. That money-minting movie machine, Marvel Studios, trots out its superhero formula for the second time in two months with "The Incredible Hulk," and...

  3. 'The Golden Compass'

    The distant rumble emanating from your neighborhood theater may be the roar of two armored polar bears locked in a roof-quaking duel. Or perhaps it's the final thrump-tum-tum of the drum that New Line has been beating over the past year for "The Golden Compass," the first in a budding trilogy of page-to-screen fantasy epics with unblushing Tolkienesque aspirations.

  4. 'Compass' Points to Thrills, Not Controversy

    Amid all the media foofaraw over whether Philip Pullman's books promote child atheism, deicide or anti-Catholic sentiment, one thing rarely gets mentioned: "The Golden Compass," the first book in Pullman's "His Dark Materials" trilogy, barely cracks the lid on the series' darker secrets. It's pure introductory adventure, meant to immerse readers in Pullman's richly complicated fantasy universe. He doesn't start lowering the boom until the book's final sequence, and since writer-director Chris Weitz excises that ending altogether in order to take his "Golden Compass" film adaptation out on a high note, "Compass" at least is fairly child-safe. It's more a gateway drug than a wholesale plunge into dangerous theology.

  5. A hodge-podge of characters in 'Compass'

    Though it would not have been kind to the rumps of the restless kids who will be patronizing the film, New Line could have benefited from making "The Golden Compass" a little longer. Instead, director Chris Weitz, bound to the nomenclature of the expansive, fantastical universe of Philip Pullman's original novel, shoehorns in too many underdeveloped scenes and characters.

  6. 'Golden Compass' briefly loses its way

    <b>(B)</b> The familiar fantasy character of the feisty tomboy heroine gets an upgrade in The Golden Compass. This smart, streamlined adaptation of the first novel in Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy unfolds in a world similar to but vastly different from our own in a time that's like a blend of our 19th and 20th centuries. The movie goes by quickly -- maybe too quickly.

  7. Elliott's tough-guy portrayal in 'Compass' comes easily

    Tribune newspapers: Los Angeles Times
    Sam Elliott has played his share of hardscrabble characters, plenty of them in the Old West. But the 63-year-old actor, famous for his bushy handlebar mustache and mane of silver hair, says there is an emotional through line connecting his body of work,...

  8. That's so American

    It doesn't surprise me that, after 14 years of stalking the American pickup market, Toyota has finally unleashed full-size pickup hell with its monstrous Toyota Tundra, a truck that goes nose to nose with big-ugly domestics Ford F-150 and Chevy Silverado. Now that I have driven the redesigned 2007 Toyota Tundra -- in its most gawdamighty-large configuration, the CrewMax 4X4 SR5 with the 5.7-liter V8 -- I can't even raise an eyebrow. It's exactly what I thought it would be: a half-earnest, half-mocking tribute to the American pickup truck, bigger and saccharine-sweeter than its competitors, with major-league engineering (1,590-pound payload capacity in 4x4 trim) and focus-group features galore, including half a dozen of the biggest cup holders this side of the NFL.

  9. William Hurt Bulks for 'Hulk'

    No stranger to occasionally hulking out on set, William Hurt has joined the cast of "The Incredible Hulk." Louis Leterrier ("Transporter 2") is directing "The Incredible Hulk," which is being presented as a reimagining of the franchise, rather than a...

  11. Fast-Paised review: 'Ghost Rider'

    Based on the Marvel comic book, Johnny Blaze (Nicolas Cage) makes good on his deal with the devil by serving as a Ghost Rider, a demonic force who fights escapees from Hell whenever the devil asks. Eva Mendes plays Blaze's requisite love interest. Big...

  12. Dead on Arrival

    Zap2It.com
    What a relief. Ghost Rider is a joke -- a monumentally foolish comic book movie with lots of unintentional laughs, mixed in with the intentional ones. Absurd, ineptly plotted, it lacks a coherent theme or storyline or reason to exist aside from a very...
