they are what makes it worth the trip to the theatre .

chan 's stunts are limited and so embellished by editing that there 's really not much of a sense of action or even action-comedy .
0negative
an average kid-empowerment fantasy with slightly above-average brains .

instead of making his own style , director marcus adams just copies from various sources -- good sources , bad mixture

the plot of the comeback curlers is n't very interesting actually , but what i like about men with brooms and what is kind of special is how the film knows what 's unique and quirky about canadians .

tambor and clayburgh make an appealing couple -- he 's understated and sardonic , she 's appealingly manic and energetic .

the movie is without intent .

all movie long , city by the sea swings from one approach to the other , but in the end , it stays in formula -- which is a waste of de niro , mcdormand and the other good actors in the cast .

painful , horrifying and oppressively tragic , this film should not be missed .
1positive
take care is nicely performed by a quintet of actresses , but nonetheless it drags during its 112-minute length .
0negative
the script covers huge , heavy topics in a bland , surfacey way that does n't offer any insight into why , for instance , good things happen to bad people .
0negative
a seriously bad film with seriously warped logic by writer-director kurt wimmer at the screenplay level .
0negative
a deliciously nonsensical comedy about a city coming apart at its seams .
