College comedies havent changed much since the eighties, and IAcceptedI isnt interested in being an innovator. Its the same story over and over again. A group of lovable losers set up the perfect college experience only to have it foiled by good looking frat boys or an uptight college dean. The losers fight back with all the wacky antics they can muster and everything is wrapped up in 90 minutes with an impassioned speech from the lead loser about the importance of their slacker dream. Cant we all just get along? Source: Cinema Blend |

Although a promising start with enough decent laughs to keep you going, Accepted eventually degenerates into any number of college-themed underdog movies. Still, this could possibly gain Frat Pack pledge Justin Long his own acceptance. Source: Hollywood.com |

Though the music is familiar33 Beatles songsand the story is about as trite as it gets, Julie Taymors IAcross the UniverseI gives us some of the most sumptuous visuals and unabashed romanticism ever seen on film, and thats enough. A story of 60s revolution and romance set to the tune of songs that defined the era, IAcross the UniverseI is brilliant if only for its daring; like the Vietnam war protesters it depicts, the film never quite achieves its goals, but reaches something just as powerful in the process.

At once gritty, whimsical and highly theatrical, Revolution Studios' Across the Universe is an original movie musical springing from the imagination of renowned director Julie Taymor (Frida, Titus, and the Broadway smash hit musical "The Lion King") and writers Dick Clement & Ian La Frenais (The Commitments). A love story set against the backdrop of the 1960s amid the turbulent years of anti-war protest, mind exploration and rock 'n roll, the film moves from the dockyards of Liverpool to the creative psychedelia of Greenwich Village, from the riot-torn streets of Detroit to the killing fields of Vietnam.

The ingenious Across the Universe is a musical along the lines of a Moulin Rouge, imaginatively interjecting popular songs--in this case, the Beatles repertoire--into the storyline. It's a real treat. Source: Hollywood.com |

From the swoony opener, on a beach, when newcomer Jim Sturgess
sings, "Is there anybody going to listen to my story?" Across
the Universe sweeps you up on a wave of terrific Beatles
songs. Director Julie Taymor (Titus, Frida,
Broadway's The Lion King) is back on the high wire with
this visionary attempt to wed a story of young love and 1960s war
protest to the Lennon-McCartney catalog. Sturgess is a find as Jude
(song cue!), a Liverpool dock worker who hits Manhattan to locate
the man he thinks is his father. Instead, he discovers Lucy
(luminous Evan Rachel Wood) and a psychedelic drug culture that
gets heavily politicized when Lucy's brother Max (Joe Anderson)
faces the draft, napalm and happiness as a warm gun. Somehow Taymor
blends this story with puppets, 3-D animation, the Columbia...

"Across the Universe" (PG-13, //// minute). Here is a bold, beautiful, visually-enchanting musical where we walk (ital) into (unital) the theater humming the songs. Julie Taymor's "Across the Universe" is an audacious marriage of cutting-edge visual techniques, heart-warming performances, 1960s history, and the Beatles song book. Source: RogerEbert Headlines |
