As Johnny Most once said, “Swish!”
Another Gay Sequel: Gays Gone Wild!
puts one up and in (or several up and several in), fulfilling its mission to be a campy, smutty, neon-hued, extremely silly good time. Todd Stephens brings back the characters from
Another Gay Movie
for a homo-erotic
Where the Boys Are
(Jonah Blechman returns as ingénue Nico, joined by three new faces). The lithe lads jet to Fort Lauderdale with the battle cry “Gay spring break till our booties ache!” Nico and Andy are psyched about the Gays Gone Wild competition — the one with the most bedpost notches wins — but how will monogamous couple Griff and Jarod handle the temptation? Debates over love versus lust are summed up by Andy’s dad (Scott Thompson): “You have to decide whether to follow your heart or your hole.” Meanwhile, evil frat boys try to put our team out of action (cheesy animated crabs!), Nico falls for a merman, and a surprisingly deft Perez Hilton (playing himself) finds religion and becomes a beach-party buzzkill.

Review: Capitalism: A Love Story
In his new film about the Wall Street meltdown, Michael Moore — surprise! — denounces capitalism and its exploitation of the working class. Not that he's above doing a little exploiting himself.

Review: Looking for Eric
Like Eric (Steve Evets), the depressive Manchester postman in his new film, Ken Loach, the doyen of British neo-realism, deserves a break.
Review: Cyrus
Helicoptering parents and stay-at-home adult children have been popular issues of late, and at first, the Duplass Brothers' third feature (and their first made with a studio) seems poised to exploit them.
All but the wank
The image of Marlon Brando demanding that Maria Schneider stick two fingers up his ass, now seems the reductio ad absurdum of improvised acting.
Reinventing the steel
Lex Luthor, dressed like a pimp, is chasing Superman around in a golf cart — and they aren’t even on the set yet. Lex marks the spot: Kevin Spacey sets his sight on Superman Returns. By Mike Cotton

REVIEW: THE THREE STOOGES
| April 23, 2012
The Farrelly Brothers' Three Stooges pastiche, while not poifect, is funny and faithful, recreating slap-shtick (and sound effects!) and adding sharp one-liners.
REVIEW: GOON
| April 12, 2012
A Slapshot-worshipping, proudly raunchy ode to hockey's enforcers, Goon repeats a mock-poetic motif of blood and teeth wafting slo-mo towards the ice.
REVIEW: THE WRATH OF THE TITANS
| April 10, 2012
The folks who gave us the bombastic 3D remake of Clash of the Titans unleash Jonathan Liebesman's Wrath , and it's sensational — if you like being stuffed into a trash can and rolled down a hill.

SALMON FISHING IN THE YEMEN
| March 08, 2012
This winning British movie, in which rumpled fisheries expert Fred (McGregor) and sleek exec Harriet (Emily Blunt) help realize the dream project of a sheik, brings to mind the classic Ealing comedies that starred Guinness.
