3/4
     (2007)      "Hairspray exceeded my expectations and, while it isn't my favorite movie of the pool-and-beach season, it's enjoyable enough to earn a recommendation." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2.5/4

2/4
     (2007)      "Although it's not saying much, this is director Rob Zombie's most impressive outing behind the camera." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
4/4
     (1978)      "Halloween remains untouched -- a modern classic of the most horrific kind." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2.5/4
     (1988)      "Of all the Halloween sequels, including the irrelevant and unwatchable Halloween III, Halloween 4 stands out as the best of a generally uninspired lot." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
0/4
     (1996)      "Needless to say, the gore level is high and the scare level low -- although not as low as the intelligence level." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2/4
     (1981)      "Halloween is a classic and its first sequel is a sloppy afterthought." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
0.5/4
     (2009)      "This one represents Rob Zombie's "vision." That being the case, he's blind." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2.5/4
     (1998)      "Now that they have produced something vaguely enjoyable, hopefully the film makers will let the series rest in peace." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
1/4
     (2002)      "There's no evidence of craftsmanship or energy. Everything, from the plot to the execution, is plodding and obligatory." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
4/4
     (1996)      "I have seen dozens of versions of this play (either on screen or on stage), and none has ever held me in such a grip of awe." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2/4
     (2000)      "Although it's virtually impossible to make a bad movie based on a play as strong as Hamlet, Almereyda almost succeeds." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2.5/4
     (2008)      "Despite the richness of the premise for comic invention, however, Hamlet 2 remains a rather mediocre experience, offering sporadic laughs but never achieving the level of consistent humor necessary to make this memorable." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3.5/4
     (1996)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2.5/4
     (2008)      "Hancock is a hodgepodge of intriguing ideas that, if developed further or presented as more than throw-ins to a confused production, might have made for a unique superhero film." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4
     (1997)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
1.5/4
     (2000)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2/4
     (2009)      "Undoubtedly, Hannah Montana: The Movie will appeal to Cyrus' core audience, but the chances of this sanitized, prepackaged effort expanding her fan base is about nil." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2.5/4
     (2001)      "Hannibal isn't a terrible movie, but it is a disappointment, and more than a small step down from the level of its predecessor." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
1/4
     (2007)      "Critical miscalculations at every turn have taken this latest (and hopefully last) Hannibal movie beyond the realm of camp and into that special hell reserved for only the most rancid of sequels." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
1.5/4
     (2008)      "We don't care. It doesn't matter if they live or die, if there's a happy ending, or some kind of twist. The Happening is a movie to walk out of, sleep through, or -- best of all -- not to bother with." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4
     (2001)      "It's a delight to watch the plot unfold, and to become aware of how a small, random action by one person can impact the life of another." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2/4
     (2007)      "This movie is the worst kind of offender: it thinks its funny and clever, but it is neither. The filmmakers have mistaken banality for wit and silliness for humor, and that doesn't begin to address how visually clunky this motion picture is." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3.5/4
     (1998)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2.5/4
     (2001)      "Happy Accidents is about as unconventional a romantic comedy as you're likely to find - the only problem is that the lackluster science fiction elements keep getting in the way." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2.5/4
     (2005)      "The film isn't engaging enough to hold the average viewer's attention for its full two-plus hour running length." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4
     (2006)      "The ingredients for greatness are there. It's too bad the movie lost its way on the approach to the finish line. I recommend Happy Feet, but not as enthusiastically as I wish I could." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2/4
     (1996)      "Sandler's movie is worth a few laughs, but not many of the comic sequences are original, and even fewer are inspired." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4
     (1999)      "...a wellspring of sweet, effervescent humor that reminds us that comedies don't have to be all about fart jokes and bathroom humor." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4
     (2008)      "The buoyant tone of Leigh's latest, Happy-Go-Lucky, is such an unexpected and welcome change-of-pace. For his part, Leigh is just as grumpy as ever, but he has produced a motion picture that can best be described as optimistic." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3.5/4
     (2005)      "There's a lot more going on here than just a revenge fantasy. These are two fascinating characters, and watching them thrust and parry proves to be as impossible to turn away from as observing a grotesque roadside accident." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4
     (1997)      "There's something almost hypnotic about the way Hard Eight develops -- even in its slowest, most tedious moments, it keeps our attention." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
1.5/4
     (1998)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2.5/4
     (1993)      "Its characters are poorly-developed, the plot is the pinnacle of absurdity, and the acting, at best, is well over-the-top. Nevertheless, on the most basic, visceral level, the film succeeds." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2.5/4

3/4
     (1997)      "Only when we delve deeper into the material does it become apparent that the director has a more ambitious agenda, and that agenda makes The Harmonists a satisfying experience." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
2.5/4
     (2008)      "It's sporadically enjoyable in a silly, mindless way and it's hard not to laugh at least a few time while awash in all the bad taste." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4
     (1996)      "Harriet the Spy is an intelligent, insightful look at the tribulations of being a creative, misunderstood misfit at age eleven." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4

3/4
     (2002)      "Offers a glimpse of what happened in 1991 as Milosovich bulldozed his way into power over the corpses of his enemies." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4
     (2002)      "As a companion piece to Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets makes for effective viewing." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4
     (2005)      "Harry Potter has become a rare cinematic constant -- something to be anticipated every year or two." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4
     (2009)      "The sixth Harry Potter movie has its share of flaws but nevertheless represents solid entertainment, and it extends a remarkable streak for a franchise that has gone six deep without one failure." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3.5/4
     (2007)      "With its fifth cinematic outing, the Harry Potter film series has ascended to another level." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4
     (2004)      "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban proves that a new director with a different perspective can freshen a series that could otherwise resort to stale repetition." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4
     (2001)      "Just as the Harry Potter books have reached a wide audience, so too does the movie appeal to audience members of all ages." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4
     (2006)      "Few individuals who go off to war and experience its devastation and chaos return as the same person. This factor lies at the heart of what Harsh Times illustrates." [movie review]      ReelViews   
  
3/4
     (2002)      "This is one of those war movies that focuses on human interaction rather than battle and action sequences ... and it's all the stronger because of it." [movie review]      ReelViews
