MORAL FEAR
In the compelling, heartfelt adaptation of Tom Clancy's "The Sum of All Fears," terrorists do something awful on American soil. Seen the commercials? Despite director Robinson's protestations, the studio wants you to know what happens.

MOVIE LOVE
Buoyant, tasty, gorgeous, Roman Coppola's debut feature, "CQ," is a knowing lark, a movie in love with movies, in love with love and too easy to fall in love with.

TIP OF THE WEEK
"Insomnia" gleams. Christopher Nolan's remake of Erik Skjoldbaerg's 1997, Norway-set thriller is a more-than-worthy parallel film, standing on its own for its quiet wit, sorrowful tone and moments of timeless elegance.
