     (1982)      "The hard, cold, cynical me now realizes how precious and rare things like friendship and gentleness can be that the film touched me in different ways than when I was 13." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2008)      "It could be called Why the PATRIOT Act and Total Information Awareness Are Bad... For Dummies." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2009)      "It's not that this lovely-to-look-at nature documentary is bad: it's just that it's completely redundant as a film." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
9/10

     (2007)      "Here we have somber reflection, the lurking gray peril of an urban underbelly, shifting shifty glances and unspoken threats. Eastern Promises is almost silent -- even its title sounds like a shush." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2009)      "If Noel Coward had written Meet the Parents, it might look something like [this]: wickedly funny and also (or perhaps therefore) entirely free of poop jokes." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher

     (1990)      "One of my favorite films ... and one that touches me deeply." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2006)      "[D]og lovers, I'm totally serious when I say: Bring lots of hankies." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2002)      "Popcorny-good, but with a lot of unpopped kernels and unfortunate gobs of Golden Topping(TM) lurking at the bottom." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
9/10
     (1999)      "Wickedly funny!" [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2006)      "None of it is really science fiction, but it will appeal to fans of the genre, as well as those of mysteries, thrillers... hell, to anyone who loves enthralling TV." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2003)      "Like a tacky Wal-Mart sweatshirt bedecked with sequined snowmen... Elf is a Christmas tchotchke." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
9/10
     (1998)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2007)      "Torture! Intrigue! Sex! Treachery! Holy war! Cate Blanchett in royal drag! Clive Owen in pirate drag! We are highly amused." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2004)      "Every single attempt at levity or whimsy not only fails but actually melts down with a rancid nuclear tinge." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (1994)      "[O]ne of the blandest, most generic sitcoms in recent memory..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (1996)      "The surface is still a lot of goofy crap, but the subtext is a sneaky and unexpected stroll through the dilemmas of modern feminism." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2005)      "[E]xtra poignant not just because it's true but also because of the refusal of directors Lisa Lax and Nancy Stern to pander to easy sentiment or to place Yeboah on a pedestal of superhumanity..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2002)      "Interchangeably Perfect Students run through the hall. God forbid they should be late for class, what with them being the children of privilege and all and do they have any idea how they’d shame the family name if they were a nanosecond out of lockstep? N" [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
9/10
     (2000)      "Demonstrates how stale the Disney formula had become, and how successful the Mouse could be by daring to break an old mold." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2002)      "An extraordinary assemblage of filmmaking no-nos congeals into a movie that’s not as bad as it deserves to be, but one nowhere near entertaining, either." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (1980)      "I think I can recite most of the dialogue from The Empire Strikes Back -- I mean, even R2's clicks and beeps. Isn't that sad?" [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2007)      " It couldn't be whispier or more Disney-rific -- don't expect any grand philosophies on life beyond 'ain't true love grand?' -- but as a way to pass a couple hours in sheer movie-movie bliss, you can't go wrong." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher

     (1997)      "It's practically an antimovie, almost plotless, self-referential, and unsettling. It refuses to wrap up neatly or comfortingly. But it's one of the most provocative films in years." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (1994)      "[A] beautifully shot and exhilarating film that gets short shrift on this barebones DVD presentation..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2001)      "A beautiful, satisfyingly old-fashioned movie." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
9/10
     (1998)      "Tony Scott has crafted such a thrilling, edge-of-the-seat roller-coaster ride that you won't realize till after the end credits roll how ridiculous it is." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2002)      "One might wonder whether this isn’t the movie most calculated to enrage an audience ever made." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2005)      "Gibney leaves us with a sense that the whole thing is like organized crime. No, wait: these Enron guys were even worse than the mafia." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2004)      "[N]ever fails to take that easy route, though it cloaks itself in a veneer of intelligence and insight..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher

     (2004)      "[U]nable to follow through on the gross out, despite all the crap smeared around, and hopelessly inept on the sentimental end..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (1994)      "[A] major treat... Pick this box up, stat..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2006)      "[N]ary a thing of any substance differs from the Gospel of Luke, except here be dragons instead of landspeeders and X-wing fighters and the Han Solo is really lame..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher

     (1981)      "I remember it being a lot better than it actually is. So if you have fond memories of a long-ago viewing of EFNY, I'd suggest not ruining them by revisiting the film again." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2004)      "[T]here’s something warmly, recognizably, ubiquitously human in Sunshine, cuz don’t we all fall in love and sometimes love it and hate it at the same time?" [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2004)      "[Has] a cast to die for and a bitter poignancy that imparts the sly and frequently mean-spirited wit with genuine feeling..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2004)      "[C]elebrates the... male fear of homosexuality... when it isn’t doing its damnedest to assure Europeans that their image of Americans as uncultured morons is accurate." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2007)      "I wasn't just bored... I was actively disgusted that so much money was spent on a film that is so poorly written, and so inconsistent and incoherent..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2002)      "Frequently charming and characteristically Irish, with equal dollops of humor, black humor, and just plain blackness." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2007)      "Bittersweet and deeply, achingly romantic, this perfect, perfect film... enfolds regrets and memories and love and hope in [a] snug embrace..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher   
  
     (2003)      "[A] simultaneously edgy and cozy elegy." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher
