1.5/4
     (1996)      "Plays as a '-from-hell' thriller with a few funny moments instead of a funny comedy with dark overtones." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
0/4
     (1979)      "On the big screen is the only way one can, ahem, appreciate this gaudy, flat-out bizarre exercise in cinematic fragmentation." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2.5/4
     (2003)      "The highlights of the film are when the ostensible plotlines are dropped, and the truly talented kids get a chance to perform." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2/4
     (1998)      "[A] messy throwback to '80s teen comedies." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2/4
     (2007)      "Ichaso and his writing collaborators never allow Hector Lavoe to be much more than a voice with substance abuse issues, not a person." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
1.5/5
     (2001)      "One of the year's most embarrassing big-budget miscalculations." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
1/4
     (2001)      "One of the year's most embarrassing big-budget miscalculations." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
1.5/4
     (1994)      "Ormond and Roth, turning in nicely understated performances, generate the requisite heat, but the film never does." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2/4
     (2001)      "A very standard sports movie/inspirational drama." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
4/4
     (1995)      "Scorsese leaves his indelible signature on every frame." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
3/4
     (2004)      "Surprisingly bittersweet and contemplative, and hence registers more strongly than a mere sensory spectacle." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
3/4
     (2000)      "Cast Away may ultimately underachieve, but the soul that Hanks brings to the role -- and the film -- must not be underrated." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (1997)      "An efficient, crowd pleasing, and heartwarming entertainment." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
3/4
     (2002)      "The crescendo of craziness makes for a brisk, funny, and wholly unique 75-minute ride." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
3.5/4
     (2002)      "Works on a number of levels, but above all else it is a smart and satisfying entertainment." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2/4
     (2007)      "Garner is likable, but the film is so leisurely and meandering that it never quite builds a pulse to engage the emotions the way Grant so obviously strives." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
3.5/4
     (2002)      "This amiably light-footed chase gets the job done." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2/4
     (2001)      "Yet another so-called "family film" that will only hold some appeal for the youngest segment of the household--granted they're dog lovers." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2/4
     (2001)      "The mystery is never as intriguing as the atmosphere." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
3/4
     (1993)      "A muddled but often funny rap satire." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
4/4
     (1998)      "It's a fine line to walk, that between comedy and misery, but Vinterberg handles the balancing act magnificently." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2/4
     (1998)      "What exactly do we learn about our society? That it is one where just about every celebrity is willing to appear in a Woody Allen film." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
1.5/4
     (2000)      "The young cast of unknowns in Center Stage can all dance, which is a very good thing indeed because virtually none of them can act." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
3.5/4
     (1998)      "The nuances of Montenegro's work--and the film--are too subtle to notice along the way, but by the film's poignant yet understated conclusion, they are powerfully felt." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2/4
     (1996)      "As dull and run-of-the-mill as they come." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2.5/4
     (2007)      "A very familiar, very formula underdog sports movie with nothing to distinguish it from similar, equally slick Hollywood product--except for maybe a Bollywood-norm run time of 150 minutes." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2.5/4
     (2009)      "A wholly missed opportunity to broaden the Hindi film fan base in America." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2.5/4
     (2008)      "Eastwood and Jolie take their time trying to draw a realistic and complex character sketch, which runs at odds with the hyped-up surroundings and circumstances." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
3/4
     (2002)      "Exceeds expectations, provoking serious thought while skillfully telling a compelling, character-driven story." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2.5/4
     (2000)      "Getting the joke does not necessarily entail complete enjoyment of the picture, which grows equal parts fun and frustrating." [movie review]      rec.arts.movies.reviews   
  
3/4
     (2001)      "Blanchett makes Charlotte's journey believable and involving, and that's ultimately what counts the most--even if the destination is less than ideal." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
4/4
     (1997)      "Funny, fearless... and profoundly moving. Never did I ever think I'd come away from a Smith film with a lump in my throat." [movie review]      Movie Poop Shoot   
  
1/4
     (2004)      "What sad times we live in when a contemporary knockoff of Roman Holiday stars, in the place of the immortal Audrey Hepburn... Mandy Moore." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2.5/4
     (2008)      "Something is amiss when I come away with more to chew on about what guided the filmmaker's technique than what drove the title subject." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2.5/4
     (2008)      "These are films that are certainly thought out clearly but not nearly felt enough." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com

     (2008)      "These are films that are certainly thought out clearly but not nearly felt enough." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
1/4
     (2002)      "As is most commonly case with projects such noble and lofty ambitions, the film is less poetic than simply pretentious." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
3.5/5
     (2002)      "The energy of the performances and John Kander and Fred Ebb's enduring score push the musical scenes and the entire film over any hurdle -- yes, even including that misbegotten casting of Gere." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
     (2002)      "Singing live in the rehearsal hall while going through the strenuous motions of Marshall's choreography, Zeta-Jones is every inch the consummate performer and undeniable star." [dvd review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
3/4
     (2002)      "The energy of the performances and the enduring score push the musical scenes and the entire film over any hurdle -- yes, even including that misbegotten casting of Gere." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2.5/4
     (1998)      "The actors do a capable job with the material, but it's not so much light than just plain slight." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
3.5/4
     (1997)      "Proof that it doesn't take an elaborate story to make a terrific film." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
0/4
     (1999)      "Even the acting, while bad, isn't quite bad enough to be laughable." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2/4
     (1999)      "Note to struggling actors everywhere: if you think winning an Academy Award will make your career spring to life, look at the career of Cuba Gooding Jr." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2/4
     (1997)      "The obvious passion that Wang has for his homeland does not visibly extend his two tortured lovers." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
2.5/5
     (2000)      "Whether or not viewers end up licking their fingers to pick up the scraps ... depends on their tolerance for a different type of sugary sin: syrup." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
3/4
     (2009)      "Vimistananda is nothing less than an awe-inspiring force of nature." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
3/4
     (2005)      "Everything old feels, if not new again, at least sweet and charming." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
4/4
     (1994)      "One of the most inventive, original works to come from Hong Kong or anywhere else in a long time." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com   
  
3.5/4
     (2000)      "[The] film is handsomely mounted--from the sets and costuming to the appealing young stars--and ultimately a lot of fun." [movie review]      TheMovieReport.com
