"The Valet" serves up fun in French
The French comedy farce has become as reliable a genre as Hollywood’s romantic comedy. In any given year, you know there will be at least a few of them and when the cast is good, you know they’ll be, at the minimum, watchable. “The Valet” is fun. It isn’t deep, it isn’t life changing, but it’s 85 minutes of entertainment.

"Gosford Park" tasty but not very filling
Working with an exceptional cast, Robert Altman is at the top of his game in "Gosford Park." Unfortunately, while there's a lot to admire in it, the film ultimately fails to satisfy.
