Opportunities" trilogy, Lars von Trier goes for the jocular in
"The Boss of It All," a slight and sprightly bit of fun that's

Reuters - In the past,
Sundance has presented such gloriously entertaining, off-center
American-Indian films as "Pow-Wow Highway" and "Smoke Signals."
That tradition continues with the enchanting and decidedly

captivating crowd-pleaser here at Sundance, "Four Sheets"
should be a strong contender for the audience award. |

Reuters - Based on a horrific
expose of an international sex slave network, "Trade" is an
earnest attempt to dramatize the network of Internet sex
"tunnels." Unfortunately, the film's horrific and important
subject matter is distilled into a lackluster lump of generic

AP - It's rare that a video game comes along that's so original that it doesn't fit into any pre-existing categories. Take Nintendo's "Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day." Is it an educational game? A puzzle game? Or (heaven help us) "edutainment"? |

Reuters - Dressed up in hip
clothes, cool music and an irreverent attitude, "Dedication" at
heart is an old-fashioned love story charmingly told by
first-time director Justin Theroux. Although it sometimes
strains for the quirky, the film is buoyed by winning
performances from Billy Crudup and Mandy Moore. This one could
really catch on as date destination for the indie crowd. |
