Michael Rapaport answers the door to his Hancock Park house with a vague look of panic on his familiar, strawberry-blond mop-topped face. As he struggles to res...
There's a scene in Horrible Bosses in which Jennifer Aniston, playing a dentist who habitually sexually harasses her weakling male hygienist (Charlie Day), repeatedly says the word "pussy."

In its second weekend, the festival is presenting previews of a number of high-profile indies that are set to premiere theatrically later this summer. Here are the five best of the bunch — all of which we'll be covering in more depth when they open locally in the coming weeks......

It's 10 minutes before a human character appears on-screen in Green Lantern, a personality-free franchise-launcher that builds toward a quaint, if explosive, argument in favor of the nebulous quality of "humanity." Via a heavily CGI'd prologue, we learn that The Universe is patrolled by a group of fearless, multi-species warriors......
