		<title>Get Low</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Robert Duvall, Bill Murray and Sissy Spacek lead a cast of unforgettable characters in a just plain entertaining movie. It seems a cantankerous old backwoods hermit (Duvall) decides to throw his own funeral party while he’s still alive, and anybody who has a story to tell about him is invited.

		<title>The American</title>
		<description><![CDATA[George Clooney plays an assassin traveling through Europe, escaping danger and bedding women, and he is so impassive and cool he’s like a glacier. Unfortunately, so is the pace of the movie.

		<title>The Switch</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Switch is a funny but conventional movie with Jason Bateman as a likable neurotic in New York City and Thomas Robinson as the adorable 6-year-old who is his son through a switch in sperm donors. Yes, it is odd that the idea of sperm donation is used as a plot device in this movie [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Kids Are All Right</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is the warm, witty and wise story of a family struggling with issues of sexuality and responsibility. It’s livelier than it may sound, because the parents are lesbians, the setting is hipper-than-thou Southern California, and the protagonist who kick-starts the plot is the sperm-donor father of the two teenage children.

		<title>Winter&#8217;s Bone</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Welcome to the bleak backwoods of the Missouri Ozarks, where the economy runs on cooking and dealing meth, and polite society rests on paranoia. This is powerful, authentic filmmaking, with little-known actors and a plain style that is so convincing you can hardly wait to escape it.

		<title>Inception</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Inception is worth seeing not only so you can join the conversation of what it means (I like the theory that it’s about filmmaking, with the DiCaprio character as director; and I like the idea that it&#8217;s cinematic jazz) but also to enjoy the dream-sequence visuals of folding cities, exploding café scenes and falling in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Predators</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By my count, this is the fifth film in the Predator series and the viewer still knows practically nothing about this turgid species of alien hunters — where do they come from, why do they hunt things, do they have an actual language or just stand around and screech at each other like idiots? When [...]]]></description>

		<title>Despicable Me</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Despicable Me is an endlessly clever summer confection that had all the adults, teens and kids in the showing I attended laughing uproariously (me included). The film is just as touching and inventive as Toy Story 3, but packed with twice as many wonderful nicknacks (the villain&#8217;s car is the best Hollywood auto since the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mother and Child</title>
		<description><![CDATA[An excellent script explores the relationships of mothers and daughters (male characters not so much) in this thoughtful, emotionally powerful film. All the acting is good, but Annette Bening really stands out as she takes her character through a transformation that is complete yet completely believable.
Grade: B+

		<title>Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This documentary confirms what I&#8217;ve always believed about Joan Rivers — she&#8217;s a vicious, self-obsessed, unforgiving old shrew who puts on a particularly vile and malignant stand-up comedy act. I will give her this: At 75, she works harder and longer than a harbor full of longshoremen.
