A villain finds redemption in ‘Despicable Me’

Why do so many films disappoint the second time around?

‘Robin Hood’ may not be any fun, but it certainly has its political instincts in the proper place.

While the concept of faith is never addressed in “Handsome Harry,” the entire film is built on it.

How films can initiate the spectator into a world of transcendence.

Though it may scare you at times, the film “The Eclipse” ultimately bestows a sense of tranquility.

“The Art of the Steal” presents a convincing case to keep the Barnes Foundation in suburban Philadelphia.

“The White Ribbon” is a bracing argument for the ubiquity of sin. But it has little to say about redemption.
