OM freaking G!  This film is even more hysterical than the trailer suggests.  It’s absolutely brilliant.  Made me think of Firewall (in a good way with a crazy heist scheme plot thing), but is otherwise incomporable to the film (comedy versus drama).
Kevin James is fantastic.
I’m most delighted by Kevin James writing the script and Adam Sandler [...]

Dustin Hoffman is so incredibly versatile it’s ridiculous, Emma Thompson is amazing, and hey! It’s the grandmother from What A Girl Wants! Yay paranoid, cancer-surviving busybodies thinking their neighbor is Poland’s answer to Jack the Ripper. And hooray for directed-and-written-by productions! Joel Hopkins did a fantastic job here.

Fun! Not at all like Bedtime Stories (although there was a trailer for a Nickelodeon movie with Eddie Murphy that’s suspiciously similar…but it looks like fun). Inkheart deals with “Silvertongues” that have the ability to bring fiction to life simply by reading aloud.

When I saw the trailer, I jokingly said it was as if Leo and Kate had survived Titanic (even though I knew it took place in the 50s).
Brilliant soundtrack from Thomas Newman (Finding WALL-E)…the main theme is a dead giveaway signature.
Dreamworks received no compensation for featuring cigarettes…I assume this is because cigarettes were so heavily [...]

My God!  Joel Rosenberg is absolutely incredible.  His books and characters suck you in and thrash you until you don’t have any life left in you to read and then you keep reading.  Because you have to know what happens.  What I really enjoy is that his series of books is basically Tom Clancy crossed [...]
