| Buckley's satire on Supreme Court hits the mark
(AP)
|
| AP - "Supreme Courtship" (Twelve. 285 pages. $24), by Christopher Buckley: Opinions by the U.S. Supreme Court have footnotes, so it's fitting that a novel about that institution would have them, too. But who'd expect them to be so amusing?

| Billboard CD reviews: The Game, Byrne & Eno
(Reuters)
|
| Reuters - The Game has long threatened that
"LAX" would be his last album, so perhaps that's why he
recruited the wayward DMX to open it with one of his trademark
prayers ("Devil, we rebuke you in the name of Jesus"). The
table thus set, the Game goes surprisingly mellow in comparison
to his first two efforts. "Touchdown" sports a lazy synth and
an airy chorus from Raheem DeVaughn about jet-setting, and
Ne-Yo proves himself chivalrous while the Game growls over
"Gentleman's Affair." Common pops up on the electric
piano-driven "Angel," paying homage to his classic "I Used to
Love H.E.R.," and "Never Can Say Goodbye" depicts the Game's
creativity as he embodies the voices of Tupac, Biggie and
Eazy-E just before they passed away. -- read full article |

| Anna Faris keeps formulaic "Bunny" hopping
(Reuters)
|
| Reuters - It might wear its
derivative, "Legally Blonde"-meets-"Mean Girls" trappings like
a rhinestone thong, but strip away the second-hand attire, and
"The House Bunny" still manages to stand on its own two
skyscraper heels thanks to the comic force of nature that is
Anna Faris.

| "Parque" a memorable portrait of a lonely man
(Reuters)
|
| Reuters - Mexican
director Enrique Rivero's first feature film, "Parque Via," is
the study of a simple man who lives alone and really likes it
that way. Slow and repetitious, it uses the structure of a
short story that lulls the reader with ordinariness before a
stinging climax. -- read full article |
