6 ‘n 90!  Da Man reviews six films in ninety seconds.

Beginners.  Combined with The Beaver and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, Beginners completes last year’s terrifying trilogy of quirk.

Wanderlust.  There’s not a lot of wandering going on here–unless the title refers to what your mind does during the film.

Submarine.  Another indie film torpedoed by too much quirk?  Or does it get the mix of oddball characters and idiosyncratic storytelling just right?

The Hunger Games.  Like Twilight, Lionsgate’s next big movie franchise is based on a successful series of young adult novels.  Which makes you wonder, are there any books written for adults these days that are worth turning into movies?

6 ‘n 90.  Da Man reviews six films in ninety seconds.  And this time, it’s a festival of “outs!”

The Giant Claw.  It’s a blur!  It’s a bird!  It’s a puppet!

The Islander.  Guests are interviewed by Nancy and asked to pick the ten films they would take with them to a desert island.  Nancy’s guest this week  is John Wilson, creator of the Razzies, an award that celebrates the worst  Hollywood has to offer.  Will a Pia Zadora film be among the movies he would take with him?

Horror has many faces.  For Lou, it’s the face of Sam Mendes.

Daybreakers.  Is a spoiler warning really necessary?  A film so bad, it’s not possible to spoil it.

The Golden Globe Awards.  Let’s hear it for the winners!  And if you don’t feel like clapping for them, don’t worry.  They’re more than ready to give themselves a round of applause and a standing O.  Hey, they deserve it.

Lionel Barrymore rides a horse!  What else do you need to know?
