SLC PUNK!
by Lanceolots

Stevo becomes a punk rebel in Reagan-era Salt Lake City. His ex-hippie father sees his lifestyle as a rite of passage and urges him to attend Harvard Law School like himself- not to sell out to the system, but to buy in. For Stevo, underneath the mohawk haircuts, earrings and leather, the idea, painfully, has some merit.

Chicago
by Stephanie Zacharek

Renee Zellweger and Catherine Zeta-Jones kick the movie musical revival with a brash and nasty tale about just what celebrity will get you.

The legs go on for a mile and a half in "Chicago" -- Catherine Zeta Jones' take up the first mile and Renée Zellweger's the extra half. But the two actresses, who play Velma Kelly and Roxie Hart in Rob Marshall's devilishly grand movie version of the Bob Fosse Broadway musical, are equals in all other respects. They balance each other wonderfully, and it doesn't hurt that Marshall orchestrates everything else around them with near perfection: "Chicago" has almost single-handedly resurrected the tradition of the movie musical, a genre that has for the most part languished since its last great masterpiece, Herbert Ross's 1981 "Pennies From Heaven," which didn't attract the audience it should have. "Chicago" is sophisticated, brash, sardonic, completely joyful in its execution. It gives anyone who ever loved movie musicals, and lamented their demise, something to live for.
