  1. 'The Lucky One': Nicholas Sparks extends the bland ✭✭

    You don't need a message in a bottle to get the word out: Author Nicholas Sparks knows his audience. Conservative moviegoers (along with plenty of centrists and liberals) take to the latest Sparks adaptation, gratefully. They know they're not going to get roughed up in terms of content, or ideologically insulted: Sparks writes best-sellers that treat military personnel with respect, churchgoing Christians likewise and red state backdrops with fond, photogenic care.

  3. Film review: 'The Lucky One' never gets the fire started

    Hollywood keeps making adaptations of Nicholas Sparks novels, even though they've never really burned up the box office. Maybe “The Lucky One” will be, well, the lucky one, but it's hard to imagine why. Sparks films have become their own subclass within the Romance genre; and this one feels so familiar that, in my mind, its details began to blur with those of its predecessors before the closing credits had finished.

  4. The Lucky One

    I&rsquo;m not sure who has a worse track record with bad movies &ndash; Tyler Perry or Nicholas Sparks. Perhaps the edge should go to Perry, since he&rsquo;s involved in every aspect of his crappy films. And Sparks did give us <em>The Notebook</em>, which wasn&rsquo;t half bad.

  5. Film review: 'The Lucky One' predictable Nicholas Sparks romance

    It's probably a good thing that I don't see a lot of movies based on the books of Nicholas Sparks. He's known for super-schmaltzy romance novels that are routinely derided by critics but sell like crazy.

  8. New shows...or are they?

    The best news about NBC's Hank Azaria show is that it's no longer known as "The Hank Azaria Show." Shedding the vanity title, the moderately appealing new sitcom will go before the public Tuesday as "Imagine That," as in, "NBC realized that nobody...

  9. Sun Shines on Good and Bad of 'Sleeper Cell'

    It's Monday, and a merciless late-July sun bounces off white sand and sparkles on rolling surf. The only thing out of place on this perfect Southern California beach day are the tents set up amid the umbrellas and folding chairs, the huge light reflectors, and the camera operators struggling through the deep footing.
