A stylish, confident comedy with a light touch. Full Review
Like a trot around the track for the thoroughbreds involved, and one of the results is that it takes them far too long to get to the finish line. Full Review
A gently funny, sweetly adventurous film that makes you feel genuinely good, that is to say, entirely unconned by false sentiment or sharp, overmanipulative Hollywood practices. Full Review
This is not a major Spielberg film, although it is an effortlessly watchable one. Full Review
This is the director's most likeable film in ages, even if it's insubstantial, overlong and, frankly, a touch redundant. Full Review
