Reviews Featuring Jason Schwartzman

Rushmore
An eccentric, unpredictable, and above all enjoyable comedy. A must-see if you’re a Bill Murray fan, and highly-recommended even if you’re not.

Spun
'Spun' is a frenetically paced trip taken by people going nowhere fast, caught on a web of their own spinning. More subtle, but no less devastating, than 'Requiem for a Dream' in its depiction of pharmaceutical crash-and-burn, it lets the characters' tragic trajectories speak for themselves instead of preaching an anti-drug gospel from some elevated pulpit. A sleazily compelling insider's view into the nihilistic, self-deluding world of crystal meths.

S1M0NE
Funny and fascinating, but pot-holed with missed opportunities.

I Heart Huckabees
This intelligent and quirky trip beneath the surface of human existence is either a profound marvel or a meaningless absurdity – but either way, that’s life, and ain’t life funny!

Funny People
A heart-warming comedy that does the impossible by successfully mixing death, comedy and Adam Sandler.

Fantastic Mr. Fox
A fantastic big screen adaptation of a fantastic book keeps both kids and adults happy.
