  1. Rich Moore's 'Wreck-It Ralph' is an homage to blocky video games

    When animation director Rich Moore was growing up in Oxnard, he spent so much time in video arcades that his parents worried that their young son was wasting his time. “They would always tell me that I should be concentrating on the real world,” says Moore, who grew up to put all that invaluable research into his first big-screen movie, Disney's “Wreck-It Ralph.”

  2. Tim Burton reanimates his past in 'Frankenweenie'

    When Tim Burton was an eager young animator and filmmaker working at Disney Studios in the early 1980s, he made an inventive live-action short film inspired by his childhood in Burbank and the love of a family dog. That 1984 short, “Frankenweenie,” which starred Shelley Duvall and Daniel Stern, has now been turned into a 3-D stop-motion animated feature.

  5. DVD review: An action-packed 'Raid'

    It's safe to say that Gareth Huw Evans is the greatest Welsh director of Indonesian action films. Sony Classics picked up his second feature, &ldquo;The Raid: Redemption,&rdquo; to the cheers of Asian-action fans. The story is about a SWAT team sent on a suicide mission to grab a crime boss (Ray Sahetaphy) out of the 15-story urban apartment building that serves as his headquarters. When the squad's leader is killed, a rookie (Iko Uwais, who also served as fight choreographer) has to rise to the occasion and lead his guys through 14 video-monitored floors filled with murderous thugs. Story is hardly the point here, however. The film is almost entirely one action scene after another, starting with automatic weapons and then, as circumstances dictate, axes and knives, then improvised weapons, and finally hand-to-hand combat.
