Fascination (Jan 28 2005 00:59 GMT) - Film Reviews: The only magnetism generated by ersatz black-widow "Fascination" is that perilous urge to slow down and peek at the roadside wreck. Glacially paced, self-consciously acted and narratively risible, this so-called thriller, which comes to January's googolplex graveyard after a less-than-stellar Teutonic bow last October, will give the Lion little to roar about either theatrically or upon ancillary interment. |

Pippin (Jan 28 2005 00:59 GMT) - Legit Reviews: Pippin" is probably the only musical to address a young man's identity crisis in 780 A.D. Titular hero, son of war-mongering Charlemagne, goes through a navel-gazing 1960s-style search to find himself. His journey is a razzle-dazzle hodge-podge, bolstered by "Wicked" composer Stephen Schwartz's brightly accessible score and bogged down by Roger O. |

Death by Stereo; The Explosions (Jan 28 2005 00:59 GMT) - Music Reviews: "I feel great," Efrem Schulz told the sold-out crowd at the Troubadour Tuesday night. From most bands, this would be boilerplate stage patter, a statement on the order of "Hello, Cleveland!' But it seemed particularly out of character at a Death by Stereo show; if nothing else, the Orange County quintet specializes in making music engineered to make you feel bad. |

Paquito D'Rivera, Sergio and Odair Assad (Jan 28 2005 00:59 GMT) - Music Reviews: One collaboration begets another in the expanding world of acoustic music.

Alone in the Dark (Jan 28 2005 00:59 GMT) - Film Reviews: Very loosely based on a classic computer-game trilogy that revolutionized horror-adventure gaming in the 1990s, "Alone in the Dark" offers ample evidence that "House of the Dead" helmer Uwe Boll should put down his joystick -- quickly, before anyone else gets hurt. Derivative bloodbath jettisons the games' atmospheric suspense and Lovecraftian sense of the macabre in favor of slasher movie mayhem, wit-free dialogue and endlessly protracted and gory shootouts. Fans of the source material probably won't be switching platforms to catch this bizarre Lions Gate pickup, and non-fans definitely won't. |
