  1. 'Dangerous Method' a nuanced Freudian trip – 3 1/2 stars

    The doctor-patient relationship is a sure way to attract an audience's prurient interest, as long as proper ethical boundaries are ignored. This brings us to a movie by and for grown-ups with actual attention spans: "A Dangerous Method."

  3. Awkward 'Road' trips with Kristen Stewart

    "I was 16, 17, maybe, when I spoke with Walter for the first time," Kristen Stewart is saying about director Walter Salles, whose film version of the Jack Kerouac novel "On the Road" premiered as one of the competition titles (unawarded, as it turned out) at last year's Cannes Film Festival.

  4. Kerouac opus 'On the Road' hits just enough beats ★★★

    An eternal fountain of adolescence, Jack Kerouac's "On the Road" went through many permutations between its point of origin, 1948, and its point of notorious, divisive publication, 1957. The best description of it came from Kerouac himself, in a journal entry written after his first cross-country road trip in 1948. The book he had in mind, he said, was about "two guys hitchhiking to California in search of something they don't really find, and losing themselves on the road, and coming all the way back hopeful of something else." There's a simple beauty to that. The question is: How do you film an extended yearning?

  5. 'On the Road' review: They don't got the beat

    <strong>*1/2 (out of four)</strong>
    *1/2 (out of four) Perhaps the sight of Bella—er, Kristen Stewart—in the buff will attract people to “On the Road.” Or they’ll flock to it merely because they're curious to see how Jack Kerouac’s self-indulgent 1957...

  6. Review: 'Everybody Has a Plan' loses its way and energy

    In the Argentine thriller "Everybody Has a Plan," the lure of a new life with old trappings draws restless Buenos Aires doctor Agustin (a Spanish-speaking Viggo Mortensen) into the dingy, threat-laced world of his delta-dwelling twin brother Pedro. But...

  7. Film review: 'On the Road' to a Razzie

    It's long been said that Jack Kerouac's novel "On the Road" is unfilmable. Sadly, there is little in Walter Salles' adaptation to counter that notion.

  8. Review: 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' lacks a certain ring

    From an artistic point of view, star Mary Pickford famously said, "It would have been more logical if silent pictures had grown out of the talking instead of the other way around." Likewise, it would have been better all around if Peter Jackson's "Lord of...

  10. The Hudson and 'On the Road' are finally in gear

    From inside the rocket-shaped time capsule of a silver 1949 Hudson Super Six, West Hollywood looked astonishingly modern to Brazilian director Walter Salles.

  11. Review: 'On the Road' is achingly romantic

    There are as many visions of "On the Road," novelist Jack Kerouac's vivid anthem to the romance of youthful freedom and the getting of experience as there are readers. It's a book so influential yet so personal that each succeeding generation since its 1957 publication has picked it up and simply said, as one of its protagonists does, "Oh yes, oh yes, that's the way it goes."
