[0:00] This week on Ebert & Roeper, Detective

[0:02] Robert De Niro investigates his son for

[0:04] murder in City by the Sea.

[0:06] >> Also, Tom Hanks goes to the really big

[0:08] screen in Apollo 13: The IMAX

[0:10] Experience.

[0:11] >> And Stephen Dorff does battle with a

[0:13] cyber killer in fear.com.

[0:21] >> It was my son.

[0:22] His mother and me are divorced.

[0:24] She is his son. I'm sorry. Put a warrant

[0:27] out for him.

[0:27] >> Robert De Niro is a cop whose father was

[0:29] a killer and whose son may be a killer,

[0:31] too, in City by the Sea. It's one of the

[0:33] new movies we'll be reviewing this week,

[0:35] and I'm Roger Ebert.

[0:36] >> And I'm Richard Roeper. Our first movie

[0:38] is fear.com. Now, that's a catchy title,

[0:41] and it represents the first and last

[0:43] original thing about this drab and tired

[0:46] would-be horror flick. Working from what

[0:49] appears to be a half-finished

[0:50] screenplay, director William Malone

[0:52] seems to think he can hide the ludicrous

[0:54] story and protect the hapless cast as he

[0:56] shrouds them in darkness and rain in

[0:58] just about every scene. You'd think that

[0:59] nobody in this movie has paid his

[1:01] electric bill, but luckily their

[1:03] computers and TVs work.

[1:13] >> 48 hours.

[1:15] >> That's Natasha McElhone as a health

[1:17] inspector investigating the mysterious

[1:19] virus afflicting visitors to the

[1:21] fear.com site. But that phantom image is

[1:24] never explained. It's one of countless

[1:26] false leads and red herrings that add up

[1:28] to nothing. Stephen Dorff plays a cop

[1:31] who becomes a little too intrigued by

[1:33] fear.com.

[1:40] >> They want to hurt me,

[1:41] Mike.

[1:45] >> Jeanie.

[1:46] >> I know who you are.

[1:49] And I know what you really want.

[1:52] >> D
