<DIV>Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) has always been the smartest man in the
room...until now. There is a new criminal mastermind at large-Professor Moriarty
(Jared Harris)-and not only is he Holmes' intellectual equal, but his capacity
for evil, coupled with a complete lack of conscience, may actually give him an
advantage over the renowned detective. When the Crown Prince of Austria is found
dead, the evidence, as construed by Inspector Lestrade (Eddie Marsan), points to
suicide. But Sherlock <SPAN id=movieSynopsisRemaining>Holmes deduces that the
prince has been the victim of murder-a murder that is only one piece of a larger
and much more portentous puzzle, designed by Professor Moriarty. The cunning
Moriarty is always one step ahead of Holmes as he spins a web of death and
destruction-all part of a greater plan that, if he succeeds, will change the
course of history. </SPAN></DIV>

<DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><BR></STRONG><FONT face=Arial>Watching a film as mature, moving,
original and unpredictable as ‘<EM>The Descendants’</EM> renews my faith in
American movies, and reaffirms Alexander Payne’s status as one of our most
gifted</FONT> <FONT face=Arial>storytellers. He has also bestowed the gift of an
exceptional role on George Clooney, who gives the best performance of his
career. </FONT></DIV>
<P><FONT face=Arial></FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial>Clooney can be a charmer, but here he embodies a character
devoid of that trait. He’s a successful lawyer in Hawaii who, as he freely
admits, has become so consumed by work that he has neglected his wife and two
daughters. Fate intervenes when his wife is injured in a water-skiing accident
that puts her in a coma. Overnight, he is forced to become a full-time father to
his alienated teenage daughter (Shailene Woodley) and her younger sister, who
needs to be sheltered from the dire news about her mom. In the midst of this,
Clooney also has to make a momentous decision about a huge parcel of virgin land
on the island of Kauai that is owned by his large, diverse family.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial></FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial></FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial>The challenge in describing the film is that it doesn’t
neatly fit into any pigeonhole. It’s a serious movie that happens to have a
sense of humor, because Payne and his collaborators see the absurdity in
everyday existence. They know that life can turn tragic in the blink of an eye
and an encounter between two characters can play out as high drama or be
undercut by humor. That’s one of the qualities that distinguishes all of Payne’s
movies and makes this one so special. (The screenplay was first developed by Nat
Faxon and Jim Rash from a little-known novel by Kaui Hart Hemmings.)</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial>Hawaii is more than just a backdrop for the story; it is
part and parcel of the characters’ lives, which becomes clearer as the story
progresses. That’s not to say that there aren’t breathtaking beauty shots
peppered throughout the film; they help us understand what this island paradise
means to the people who live there full-time and call it home.</FONT></P>
<P></P>

face=Arial>Although he’s inevitably described as “director Alexander Payne,” it
is his writing, usually in collaboration with Jim Taylor, which helps define the
filmmaker’s sensibilities. While he’s not above making fun of his characters
(think of the hapless schoolteacher played by Matthew Broderick in
‘<EM>Election’</EM>, or the often-clueless Jack Nicholson in ‘<EM>About
Schmidt’</EM>) he never trivializes them. There is an unexpectedly funny moment
in ‘<EM>The Descendants’</EM> in which Clooney, fired up with rage, impulsively

Alexander Payne,” it is his writing, usually in collaboration with Jim Taylor,
