Search: Starring Bob Balaban

Improvised by an exceptional cast of intelligent actors.

No other director could have pulled this off, such a humane fusion of communication and technology.

Being prolific implies over-exposure and repetition. Not with Allen. He gets better. He takes more risks.

Evocative, wide-ranging, and evermore timely.

There's a sense that For Your Consideration has followed in the footsteps of its own premise, that of an inconsequential movie which has managed to make it.

Buscemi gives one of his finest performances.

Altman's great triumph is in galvanising the energies of exceptional actors into a living, breathing entity.

The real standout performance is Franco’s.

If you don't believe in parallel universes, fairy stories or the power of the puzzle, Story's story will leave you as cold as her skin.

Jim Carrey plays Jimmy Stewart in a homespun piece of whimsy that is far too long.

Gore Verbinski treats the whole thing as a romp.

The subtlety of Guest's humour feels too soft.

The film becomes a mixture of Dad's Army and The Cockleshell Heroes (without the cockleshells).

The perfect summer movie for the eternally 12 who like to travel in style.

Made for HBO, the film demonstrates the high quality of some American television.

Catherine Zeta Jones never manages to engage our sympathy as someone mourning her sister or truly caring for her niece.

The film is neither as bland, nor as silly as you would suppose.
