Between the two of them, Michael Caine and Demi Moore have appeared in over 175 movies but only once--as far as I can tell--together (1984's "Blame it on Rio," the sleaziest pedophile sex comedy of the decade!). On the strength of their latest film...more

Somewhere in the messy, laughably titled "Flawless" is a potentially fine character study about prejudice and the price we pay for sex. But Joel Schumacher's script (which he also directed) is a rhinestone in the rough, a piece of junk jewelry...more

Flawless Review

There is one man in Hollywood that I have always feared. Joel Schumacher, director of such films as Batman Forever, A Time To Kill, Batman and Robin, and 8MM. I have yet to see a recent (like in the past twenty years) good movie coming from the man....more

Flawless Review

Robert De Niro never bores me as an actor, and is always trying to make a fresh cut out of every character he plays. In "Flawless," De Niro plays a paralyzed cop, and this echoes memories of the mental patient he played in "Awakenings," yet surprisingly...more

Philip Seymour Hoffman plays Rusty, a flamboyant drag queen and Koontz's neighbor. They despise each other, hurling invectives back and force through their respective apartment windows. more

You have to pity poor Joel Schumacher. Not only is he accused of single-handedly destroying the Batman franchise, but his last film, the bleak 8mm, was ridiculed by the majority of critics in America. I can visualize Schumacher's conversation with...more

With a title like _Flawless_, writer-director Joel Schumacher has set himself up for the easy critical jab, so allow me to get it out of the way right here, right now: _Flawless_ is anything but. However, this small-scale character drama from the poster...more

More aptly titled DOA, were that name not already taken, FLAWLESS is an unappealing mess of a movie. Written and directed by Joel Schumacher, whose last film was the sleazy 8MM, the movie has tonal problems from its gangster beginning to its madcap...more

Double personality. Joel Schumacher. Think FLATLINERS. Think ST-ELMO'S FIRE. Think FALLING DOWN. Now think BATMAN FOREVER, BATMAN & ROBIN & THE CLIENT. He likes to make the smaller, more meaningful pictures, but then he also enjoys making the bigger,...more

Flawless Review

Too many Hollywood films are based on opposites. You've got your Runaway Bride-type romantic swill where hunky guys and pretty girls hate each other, but then fall in love. And then there's your 48 Hours-type action picture where hard-edged cops and...more

These days, De Niro seems to be seeking out scripts with challenging twists to his tough guy persona. "Analyze This" (earlier in the year) portrayed him as a Mafia boss, who in search of meaning to his criminal life, enlists the reluctant help of the...more
