Dare to "Darkon"
If you missed it last night, you have two more chances to see "Darkon," the surprisingly sophisticated documentary about adults who play live-action medieval-war fantasy games. We reviewed it in December from the Santa Fe Film Festival. (Click here.) It plays at the Guild tonight at 10 and midnight.
Elsewhere on the new-releases front: "Sunshine," from the eclectic Danny Boyle ("Trainspotting," "28 Days Later" and "Millions") looks like an interesting sci-fi drama in the realm of last year's satisfying "The Fountain." We give it a B-plus. "No Reservations," the American remake of "Mostly Martha," is a pleasant romantic comedy with Catherine Zeta-Jones, Aaron Eckhart and Abigail Breslin. It gets a B. Interested in "The Simpsons Movie"? Check out Phil Parker's review below. And we give a B-minus to "The Page Turner" at the Guild.
Would you rather hear music tonight? It's the last night of Summerfest in Civic Plaza, and I interviewed the headliner, Darren Cordova, one of the biggest stars in New Mexico music. Read the profile here.
