The Rite
The Rite gets it all wrong. With a lopsided story line, an
untested lead actor (no it’s not Anthony Hopkins) and an are-we-there-yet
wait for the good stuff to start, this thriller barely thrills at all...
The Green Hornet
Floats like a butterfly, stings like a gnat...
True Grit
Putting aside their signature funky smart-aleck style, The
Coen Brothers have still delivered what is truly one of the
best, most polished and entertaining movies of the year...
The Fighter
David O. Russell’s slam to the gut is as much about
personal dysfunction as it is about the very real story of boxing...
The Company Men
Escapist? Uh, no. Transcendent? Without a doubt. John Wells’
remarkable drama is very much a chronicle of our times...
I Love You, Phillip Morris
The least outrageous thing about this movie
is that Jim Carrey plays a gay guy...
Black Swan
I doubt there’s a woman alive who won’t, at
least in some small way, relate to this movie...
The Kings Speech
There are many reasons why this film is so winning: not
the least of which is the auspicious timing of its release...
Morning Glory
How can a movie so derivative be so genuinely funny?
Due Date
With more than a nod to the great comedy “Planes Trains and Automobiles”,
this odd-couple road picture still delivers a wacko good time...
127 Hours
May I humbly suggest the term “visceral” be retired from any future film reviews?
Because after seeing Danny Boyle’s extraordinary, gut wrenching movie,
I can’t imagine any other topping it in the slam to the gut category...
Hereafter
Ambitious to be sure, but this muted exploration of life
here and after is one of Eastwood’s rare misfires...
Life As We Know It
Cute boy and girl opposites meet and fall in love after their best friends die
and leave them in charge of raising their orphaned daughter. Adorable...
Stone
Not to pigeonhole anyone, but it is hard to imagine the
man behind the creative and charming June Bug is also the writer
who has delivered the pedestrian and mundane script here...
Nowhere Boy
This intimate drama focuses on John Lennon’s turbulent
teenage years, not just referencing, but explaining so much
of what, later, showed up in his music...
The Social Network
Among this film’s remarkable achievements is that fact that it is thrilling
without a single gunshot, in your face without the benefit of 3-D...
Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps
Just like the Stock Market, this movie suffers
from some pretty scary highs and lows...
Never Let Me Go
This is a hard movie to shake.
That’s a good thing, by the way...
The Town
Smart, sleek and undeniably entertaining, Ben Affleck’s
sophomore directorial effort proves he’s the real deal...
Eat, Pray, Love
Elizabeth Gilbert’s best selling tome has been dumbed down and glossed up. Fans of the
introspective will be disappointed: those looking for decent, escapist entertainment will not...
The Other Guys
How can a movie that can be so very funny also be so very boring?

Her voice is heard throughout the 50 states and around the world by more than one million listeners on her syndicated radio programs:
Joanna Langfield's People Report and Video and Movieinute. She is also seen and heard domestically and internationally as a regular contributing commentator on CNN International, CNN, Fox News and CNBC. As a columnist and reporter, her articles have been published in such high profile magazines as Video Review and McCall's.
Joanna Langfield is known for taking the celebrity interview to another level with probing looks at celebrities' insights rather than just their latest

Joanna began her career on the production staff of a local Boston television station. She then focused her energies towards radio and
began producing talk shows at WMEX-AM in Boston.
After moving to New York, she found herself at WMCA-AM, where she served as executive producer to the legendary talk show personalities Barry Gray and Sally Jessy Raphael. She began hosting a one-minute movie review spot which, in turn, led the way to her own top-rated weekend call in-show, The Joanna Langfield Show from 1980-1983.
When Joanna moved to WABC-AM and hosted The Joanna Langfield Show every Saturday night from 9:00pm to midnight, it quickly became the highest rated show in its time slot.
From 1987-1989, Joanna hosted Today's People on the ABC Radio network, which was fed daily to over 300 stations around the country. She also worked closely with WABC-TV as a regular on-air contributor.
In 1989, Joanna decided to produce and syndicate her own radio reports. She formed her own radio production company, Joanna Langfield Entertainment Reports.
Joanna is heard and seen domestically and internationally as one of the top authoritative commentators on the entertainment industry.
