B
     (2007)      "Good enough that the mistakes it makes are genuinely frustrating rather than feeling par for the course." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
B+
     (2004)      "Literalizes the plot's existential underpinnings, consciously makes the subtext into the headline, and comes up with something unique and occasionally even coherent." [movie review]      Film Blather

B
     (2009)      "Will be remembered as the movie that turned Paul Rudd from a dependable supporting player into a comic force to be reckoned with." [movie review]      Cinematical   
  
C+
     (2002)      "Its isolated moments of comedic near-brilliance punctuate long stretches of absolutely nothing." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
F
     (1998)      "The only thing terrifying about this clunker is the thought of having to sit through it." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
1.5/4
     (1998)      "hough the film is distinctive, its unique style wore thin after about 20 minutes, and as it progressed, watching became a chore." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
B
     (2002)      "A masterful film from a master filmmaker, unique in its deceptive grimness, compelling in its fatalist worldview." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
A-
     (2004)      "Loss of innocence? Yeah, maybe. But there's so much more at play here that it seems absurdly reductionist to stick I'm Not Scared with such a clichéd label." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
D+
     (2007)      "Incorporates and represents everything I hate about Bob Dylan, which is what everyone loves about Bob Dylan, so this is emphatically a movie for those who worship the man." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
D+
     (2007)      "Incorporates and represents everything I hate about Bob Dylan, which is what everyone loves about Bob Dylan, so this is emphatically a movie for those who worship the man." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
B
     (2004)      "The effects work here doesn't break any incredible new ground or shatter any records, and yet this is one of the most visually impressive movies I have ever seen." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
A-
     (2005)      "A straightforward, intelligent noir comedy." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
B
     (1999)      "An Ideal Husband is an entertaining, light-as-a-feather production, as funny as it is affecting." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
A-
     (2003)      "I much prefer its cheerful absurdity over the boring polish of the countless, endless conventional Hollywood actioners." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
B+
     (2002)      "It is rare that movies portray smart teenagers, and I was grateful for this one." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
C+
     (2007)      "Illegal Tender isn't a very good film, but it shows a genre filmmaker who is full of ideas and unwilling to settle." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
B
     (2006)      "The last act dulls the impact of what is otherwise a rich, affecting movie, directed with an elegance that belies its 'period piece' label." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
C+
     (2004)      "...some sort of bizarre experiment wherein writer-director Dan Harris tries to see what fresh hell he can unleash on his characters before his movie bursts at the seams." [movie review]      Film Blather

A-
     (2003)      "Bewildering at times, sentimental at others, but never treacly, it shows us America filtered through memory and perception, and a troubled family filtered through America." [movie review]      Film Blather

B+
     (2004)      "A crowd-pleaser, an actors' showcase, and a curious synergy of light comedy and heavy themes." [movie review]      Film Blather

B+
     (2003)      "Meg Ryan habitually misplaces her clothes, Mark Ruffalo may or may not be playing a serial killer and there's a scene where a man cuts a woman's leg into sections with ice skates. I dare you to be bored." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
B
     (2007)      "Appealing performances from Brody, Meg Ryan and Kristen Stewart are enormously helpful in giving the film what ultimately gets it across the finish line: an endearing, shaggy-dog likability." [movie review]      Film Blather

B-
     (2003)      "Absurdly, gloriously entertaining." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
A-
     (2004)      "Pixar's done it again, etc., etc. It's almost boring at this point." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
B+
     (2008)      "Deft, clever and fast-paced; it hits all the nostalgic touchstones and introduces memorable, worthwhile new players." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
C-
     (2009)      "For a movie about the power of books and stories, it's a bit ironic that Inkheart is itself so poorly thought through." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
B+
     (2006)      "Not the kind of strongly polarizing work that the filmmaker has done in the past, but that makes it no less significant. It's a subtle tour de force. " [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
C+
     (1999)      "The film comes on so strong, instead of comprehending what it's trying to say, we reel from it." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
B+
     (2002)      "A slow, moody, careful character study." [movie review]      Film Blather

B
     (2005)      "If Sydney Pollack's first film since 1999's Random Hearts is uncommonly intelligent, it is also uncommonly sedate." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
B+
     (2002)      "Consistently interesting, often suspenseful, and endearingly silly." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
D
     (2005)      "Laughable in a lumbering and boring way." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
A
     (2007)      "The reason it's so troubling, even disturbing, is that notwithstanding the protagonist's profound goodness, the film insists on consequences for his narcissism, his naivete, his -- yes -- stupidity." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
B
     (2003)      "The sheer amount of chuckles in the script is enough to make you forget that Intolerable Cruelty is somewhat arbitrarily put together, never building the rhythm that would have made it into something memorable." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
C-
     (2002)      "Might be one of those vanity projects in which a renowned filmmaker attempts to show off his talent by surrounding himself with untalented people." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
B-
     (1993)      "Perhaps the best thing that can be said for Iron Monkey is this: even when all else fails, it is never dull." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
A-
     (2003)      "It should not be dismissed as cheap gimmickry or a shock tactic." [movie review]      Film Blather   
  
C
     (2005)      "Bay's relentless bombast is no less irritating here than it was in Pearl Harbor, or Bad Boys II, or The Rock." [movie review]      Film Blather
