Free Comedy Show
Comedian Heather McDonald will give a free performance at 8 p.m. Thursday, April 28 in the Union Ballroom on the University of Arkansas campus.
Oh 'Rio,' 'Rio'
I gladly and freely recommend the movie “Rio” itself, which is sweet, funny and boats a toe-tapping soundtrack to boot. But when it comes to seeing it in 3D or 2D, I could make a sound argument for both.
Not So 'Super'
“Super” is a movie that I was really rooting for, mostly because I like all the people involved; but sadly it just isn’t very good.
'Win Win' Win
There is a lot to love about “Win Win” which combines a solid family drama with the elements of a fine sports movie and throws in some well-earned laughs along the way.
'Hanna' — High-Class Action
What makes “Hanna” even more impressive is that while the powers that be could have been satisfied with the twist and cranked out a ho-hum movie, we are instead treated to a nuanced and brilliantly acted little film.
First/Worst Thursday
First Thursday and Worst Thursday are set to ‘art it up and never stop!
Mission Statement
When I worked with homeless teenagers, the staff was driven by the organization’s mission to “[reach] out to homeless and disenfranchised youth of New York City, offering them respite from hunger, cold, loneliness and fear and the opportunity to reclaim for themselves a sense of dignity and self-worth.”
'Hop' Plops
Its inherent average-ness is easy to explain: solid writers Cinco Paul and Ken Daurio (Yea for “Despicable Me” and “Horton Hears a Who”) meet not-so-solid director Tim Hill (Boo for “Alvin and the Chipmunks” and “Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties”).
