[movie review]      Flipside Movie Emporium       2/5      Made of Honor (2008)      "recycles tired clichés and settles on the easiest jokes" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       1/5      Madison (2005)      "only naïve adolescents with no prior film knowledge will stomach the pap" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       D+      Maid in Manhattan (2002)      "Employs so many mechanical plot devices, it might want to change its title to Made in a Factory." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine            The Majestic (2001)      "Visuals often mesh seamlessly with the film's ragtime soundtrack, another treat." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       2.5/5      The Man (2005)      "content to be insanely stupid but sporadically funny" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       C-      A Man Apart (2003)      "Recycles so many familiar elements of decent “cop on the edge” thrillers but can’t seem to spin them into a production that’s worth your time." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       1.5/5      Man of the Year (2006)      "ignore the propaganda this picture is peddling." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       2/4      Management (2009)      "Goes for broke on sentiment but overlooks important details that make decent films great." [movie review]      Charlotte Weekly       3/4      Married Life (2008)      "I suspect Hitchcock would enjoy watching this slow-churning thriller, which pilfers a few of the master's storytelling tricks as it revels in its own dark heart." [movie review]      Charlotte Weekly       2/5      Martian Child (2007)      "the fairly predictable cornball fluff we anticipate when off-center loners find a middle ground." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       D      Martin Lawrence Live - Runteldat (2002)      "It's just hard to believe that a life like this can sound so dull." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       B      Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003)      "You get the feeling Weir’s heart isn’t in the action, and he’d much rather dissect the strength found in loyalty and valor than the kind provided by a rifle or cannonball." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       4/5      The Matador (2005)      "Told with kinetic flair and a go-for-broke style that's more amusing than engrossing." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       3.5/4      Match Point (2005)      "(Allen) rediscovers many filmmaking traits I thought he'd lost for good." [movie review]      Charlotte Weekly       B+      Matchstick Men (2003)      "(A) breezy con artist picture that, while long in the tooth, finds solid roots in valuable family relationships." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       B-      The Matrix Reloaded (2003)      "A cycle of mind-blowing action and off-target philosophical rambles that alternately build momentum and deflate it." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       C+      The Matrix Revolutions (2003)      "Too bad the Wachowski brothers marry their mind-blowing visuals to some of the worst war movie clichés ever written." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       B-      Max (2002)      "Meyjes has penned a smart script that juggles key historical points, each bearing the weight of consequence." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       B-      Mean Girls (2004)      "Benefits immensely from screenwriter Tina Fey’s unique insight." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       1/5      The Medallion (2003)      "Chan may be killing time between Rush Hour sequels, but he can do better than this." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       3/4      Memoirs of a Geisha (2005)      "Always pleasant to watch even as the plot bites off more than it can chew." [movie review]      Charlotte Weekly       2.5/4      The Men Who Stare at Goats (2009)      "Does a passable imitation of a Coen brothers comedy." [movie review]      Charlotte Weekly       3/4      The Merry Gentleman (2009)      "As a quiet, sad character piece, it strikes the appropriate nerves." [movie review]      Charlotte Weekly       A-      Metallica: Some Kind of Monster (2004)      "Berlinger and Sinofsky manipulate almost two years of raw footage into one coherent, riveting and educational piece." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       1.5/5      Miami Vice (2006)      "Vice lacks that human touch, those insights into the men away from their beats... Mannequin Vice might have made for a better title." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       4.5/5      Michael Clayton (2007)      "gripping and complicated" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       3.5/4      Michael Jackson's This Is It (2009)      "a ferociously entertaining send-off for the musical icon, a coda that permits Jackson's legacy to end on a high note." [movie review]      Charlotte Weekly       3/4      A Mighty Heart (2007)      "A tough film grounded in modern foreign policy that puts a face on those who are collateral damage in this war on terror." [movie review]      Charlotte Weekly       A      A Mighty Wind (2003)      "Guest holds his Wind characters on a pedestal of reverence. It’s a place these actors have earned." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       3/5      Milk (2008)      "Van Sant's tender human-interest story, which showcases Sean Penn's considerable talents, is a closer relative to earlier efforts such as Finding Forrester or Good Will Hunting than to recent, abstruse features like Elephant and Gerry" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       4.5/5      Million Dollar Baby (2004)      "When did Clint Eastwood find the time to pour his heart and soul into Million Dollar Baby?" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       C-      Mindhunters (2005)      "In true serial-killer-stalks-victims fashion, the first hour is tense and the last hour is terrible." [movie review]      Flipside Movie Emporium            Minority Report (2002)      "A cerebral film noir for the 21st century that’s constantly reinventing itself visually in the hands of a multi-faceted director still unsure of his current voice." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       4/5      Miracle (2004)      "Calculated, polished, and affectionate." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       2.5/5      Miracle at St. Anna (2008)      "even at a bloated 155 minutes, Lee's picture seems to aimlessly tread water" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       3.5/4      MirrorMask (2005)      "An ideal cerebral escape for that advanced learner in your family who’s biding time between Eragon and Harry Potter novels." [movie review]      Charlotte Weekly       2.5/5      Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous (2005)      "After an endless stream of punches, push-up bras, and plot padding, there’s little chance you’ll leave the theater feeling too congenial" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       3/4      Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day (2008)      "A triumphant lark." [movie review]      Charlotte Weekly       2.5/5      The Missing (2003)      "What’s missing from The Missing is Howard’s heart and human touch in the face of tragedy" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       4/5      Mission: Impossible III (2006)      "Relentless ... a popcorn thriller that keeps pouring it on," [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       B-      Monster (2003)      "Would we still be talking about Monster, though, without Theron’s remarkable transition? Probably not." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       3.5/4      Monster House (2006)      "Unfurls like a campfire story sugar-infused teenage counselors would spin for frightened scouts on an overnight trip." [movie review]      Charlotte Weekly            Monster's Ball (2001)      "The strength of the actors' performances help convince us of the possibility of passion." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       3/5      Monster-in-Law (2005)      "Somebody help me – I’m turning into Roger Ebert." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com            Monsters, Inc. (2001)      "More a Disney flick than a Pixar production." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       3/4      Moon (2009)      "Comparisons to "2001" or even Ridley Scott's "Alien" aren't far-fetched." [movie review]      Charlotte Weekly       B+      Moonlight Mile (2002)      "The type of movie you return to often, even if you never watch it again." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine       B+      The Motorcycle Diaries (2004)      "Avoids political hotbeds, content with the affirming message that life lessons are best learned simply by living." [movie review]      Eclipse Magazine
