  1. 'Arbitrage': Sympathy for the devil ★★★

    It's an unseemly request by a movie, to ask us to root for the lying, scrambling but extremely well-coiffed hedge fund billionaire weasel played by Richard Gere in the new film "Arbitrage." But there it is. The movie does ask, and to varying degrees, we comply.

  3. Film review: Richard Gere plays one of the 1% in 'Arbitrage'

    “Arbitrage” is not about Jack Abramoff, or Bernie Madoff or even Mitt Romney. But resemblances between any one of them and the film's protagonist, Robert Miller (Richard Gere), are hardly coincidental. Miller is a stand-in for a whole class of people — the 1% of the 1% of the 1% — to wit, Wall Street. He is what Tom Wolfe labeled a “Master of the Universe” in his novel “The Bonfire of the Vanities” — with which “Arbitrage” shares a number of plot elements.

  9. Reel Critics: 'Resident Evil' keeps features that made it popular

    "Resident Evil: Retribution" is the fifth movie in a very successful franchise that began as a series of apocalyptic Japanese video games. The surreal sci-fi adventure blends "Aliens" and "The Matrix" with "Blade Runner" overtones. For good measure, thousands of flesh eating zombies are added to the mix to chase down the remaining humans on Earth in a climatic battle of survival.
