Movie Review

Philip Seymour Hoffman has always stood out in the films he's been in, no matter how small the role. He chooses his projects carefully - he doesn't have a bad movie on his resume since 1998's "Patch Adams," although "Along Came Polly" was nothing to scream about - and has slowly developed a name for himself in the same way that William H.
