“The Lovely Bones, adapted from Alice Sebold’s 2002 bestseller, concerns the rape and murder of Susie Salmon (Saoirse Ronan), a 14-year-old Pennsylvania girl. Her family — dad (Mark Wahlberg), mom (Rachel Weisz), grandma (Susan Sarandon), sister (Rose McIver), brother (Christian Thomas Ashdale) — is devastated. So is Susie, which brings Peter Jackson and his Lord of the Rings screenwriters Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens back to fantasy. Caught between death and heaven, Susie watches as her family tries to cope and the killer (an indelibly creepy Stanley Tucci) goes undetected.” More »

“Crazy Heart, written and directed by Scott Cooper, is a small movie perfectly scaled to the big performance at its center. It offers some picturesque views of out-of-the-way parts of the American West, but the dominant feature of its landscape is Bad Blake, a wayward, aging country singer played by Jeff Bridges.” More »

“A disgraced middle-aged journalist teams up with a pierced, tattooed and aggressively antisocial computer hacker to investigate a disappearance and a dark family secret — the late Stieg Larsson put a 21st-century spin on the classic crime thriller and the result was one of the publishing success stories of the decade.” More »
