a heartbreakingly thoughtful minor classic
-- lots of boring talking heads , etc. --
like the original
of the ya-ya sisterhood
give shapiro , goldman , and bolado credit for good intentions , but there 's nothing here that they could n't have done in half an hour
unimaginative

devoid of objectivity and full of nostalgic comments from the now middle-aged participants
the comedy equivalent of saddam hussein
dark , gritty , sometimes funny little gem
an overripe episode of tv 's dawson 's creek and a recycled and dumbed-down version of love story
it 's still damn funny stuff
distanced us
a sleep-inducingly slow-paced crime drama with clumsy dialogue , heavy-handed phoney-feeling sentiment , and an overly-familiar set of plot devices .
the performances are amiable and committed , and the comedy more often than not hits the bullseye
er , bubbly
of candid camera
` opening up ' the play more has partly closed it down .

you come away from his film overwhelmed , hopeful and , perhaps paradoxically , illuminated .
, but director carl franklin adds enough flourishes and freak-outs to make it entertaining .
stand as intellectual masterpieces
a superlative b movie -- funny , sexy , and rousing
relic from a bygone era , and its convolutions ...
its screwed-up characters
-- thoughtfully written
though the story ... is hackneyed

i suppose it 's lovely that cal works out his issues with his dad and comes to terms with his picture-perfect life -- but world traveler gave me no reason to care
means a great movie , but it is a refreshingly forthright one .
seems embarrassed by his own invention
a prison comedy that never really busts out of its comfy little cell .
this familiar rise-and-fall tale is long on glamour and short on larger moralistic consequences , though it 's told with sharp ears and eyes for the tenor of the times .

much first-rate
a sour taste in your mouth
some of the characters die and others do n't , and the film pretends that those living have learned some sort of lesson , and , really ,
