Trailer Talk: ‘Rango’
— by SHERICE ANTOINETTE — Gore Verbinski, director of the first three “Pirates of the Caribbean” films, teams up with Johnny Depp once again, this time for the 3-D animated feature “Rango.” The teaser, which was released months ago, was more of a tribute to “Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas.” “Loathing” wasn’t exactly a […][...]

Review: Somewhere
— by SHERICE ANTOINETTE — Sofia Coppola returns to familiar territory with her latest film, “Somewhere.” More rewarding than the somewhat disappointing “Marie Antoinette,” “Somewhere’s” simplistic and intimate storyline about a lost A-list actor is very refreshing. While some may not enjoy the movie’s unhurried pace, I found the film fascinating. Sofia Coppola’s long and […][...]
