'The Lake House,' 'Nacho Libre'

Fresh Air | By David Edelstein

Published June 16, 2006 at 11:00 AM EDT

Our film critic reviews The Lake House, starring Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock, and Nacho Libre, starring Jack Black.

Though summer begins officially next week, David Edelstein says these two movies offer just the kind of escapist entertainment we expect at this time of year.
