Reviews Featuring Oliver Platt

Lake Placid
Not remotely frightening, but remarkably good fun.

Pieces of April
Riffing off the Thanksgiving myth, 'Pieces of April' offsets sentimentality with some hard-hitting cynicism. Intelligent, painful, and ultimately very moving.

The Three Musketeers
Bring back ‘Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds’!! Now.

Kinsey
This biopic of pioneering sexologist Alfred Kinsey has its balls in its brain rather than the other way round.

Frost/Nixon
A film that once again shows that history will always repeat itself, this character-driven true story brings authenticity and suspense to a page of American history.

Martian Child
Virtually ignored and unseen in its theatrical release, this is a film about the complex bond between a lonely father and his troubled adoptive son that could benefit from DVD viewing—as it should.

2012
The end can't come soon enough with this overlong and overhyped disaster epic that all been done before - just far better.
