In addition to a very engaging script, Forrest Whitaker and James McAvoy amazingly express the tension and the camaraderie shared by Amin and Garrigan.

Splendid.

Absolutely--four out of five stars for being cuter, funnier, and, besides, the character design far exceeded my expectations.

Even if you already knew the facts, you won’' be able to help but reflect in awe at how much progress in the fight against discrimination has been made on a societal level.

Beneath its morbid exterior, Sunshine Cleaning projects a tender portrait of how people help out others and seek a better life for themselves.

McGowan’s film isn’t just about following this boy’s private quest to accomplish the impossible. It is also about how he affects the other characters in the film.

In terms of "narrative," the film keeps excellent pace, maintains your attention, and educates you on psychological ramifications of memory.

When The Namesake ends, one feels as though one has lived with the characters instead of just watching them.

Overall, I found myself not hating the film. There's just one thing that troubles me about the way Nancy Drew is depicted. She is determined, a perfectionist, uber-organized, and efficient. Those qualities can be associated to geekdom, but they’re also symptoms of someone with a propensity for disordered eating or obsessive-compulsive disorder. Hmmm.

Hathaway's exuberance and dramatic range are fitting for this portrayal of the celebrated literary figure.
