Review: 'Vicky' is a beautiful triangle

Times Leader Video “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” continues Woody Allen’s recent cinematic tour of Europe with another morality play, one that doesn’t fit his “romantic comedy” or “melodramatic thriller” mold. But “Barcelona” is likable, beautifully acted, scenic and sexy, ingredients that have been missing from his films since, oh, “Everyone Says I Love You” (1996).

Review: 'Wars' has lost the force

You’ll know you’re in a different galaxy within the first seconds of “Star Wars: The Clone Wars,” which substitutes the Warner Bros. logo and theme music for the familiar 20th Century Fox searchlight and fanfare.
