The train in “Unstoppable” is, in fact, stoppable, and “127 Hours” is barely an hour and a half long. Otherwise, those movies are pretty good. Especially “127 Hours,” which is still in limited release but will soon be more widely available.
“Morning Glory” (review at Film.com) is a lot less good, failing to take advantage of its many comic possibilities. Woody Allen’s latest, “You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger,” is likewise subpar.
Also in limited release: “Tamara Drewe” (review at Film.com), a fun ‘n’ snappy British comedy of manners.
“Skyline” opened wide today as one of Hollywood’s Shameful Secrets®. Review to come.
“What’s the Big Deal?” and “Eric’s Bad Movies” took the week off. But I did transcribe the pitch meeting for the Justin Bieber 3D movie, so there’s that.

Ohhhh! His last name is “Focker”! I just got that.
@PetalumaFilms [brain explodes] It’s Lewises. More than one Lewis is Lewises. An apostrophe is not the right way to make a plural.
RT @MovieBS Today’s show, hot off the presses. Unstoppable, Morning Glory, Skyline, Four Lions, propaganda, etc., etc. http://fb.me/sK0uGJ6A
Bayer & I usually have lunch after MOVIE B.S., but today he had to leave, so I ate by myself, and I ate donuts for lunch.
RT @davechensky SKYLINE: So there are these two special effects wizards. One says, “Hey, we can make a movie, right?” “Probably.” The End.
Wrote a review; reread it; thought, “I agree with this”; remembered I wrote it, so of course I agree with it; felt dumb; tweeted about it.
There is a hip young student in this coffeehouse who, like me, is using an iPad and wireless keyboard! See how cool I am?? SEE???
