Quentin Tarantino is returning to Cannes, the film festival where his second movie, a film that changed cinema forever, Pulp Fiction, won the prestigious Palme d’Or in 1994.

Quentin’s new movie, Inglourious Basterds, about a group of Jewish-American soldiers on a covert mission to brutally terrorize Nazis during the French occupation, will be competing against Ang Lee’s Taking Woodstock, Looking for Eric, which was directed by Ken Loach, who won the Palme d’Or in 2006 for The Wind That Shook the Barley, and 17 other films.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
