B+
     (2006)      "It's an absorbing, hypnotic piece of scotch-soaked filmmaking." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
D-
     (2006)      "This is a bloated SNL sketch comedy film, complete with Terry Bradshaw nudity and a cast pausing for the audience to laugh." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
D
     (2008)      "If Matthew Barney and Alejandro Jodorowsky were in change of filming a Gay Pride parade, it would be similar to what Fall has to offer visually...As a living, breathing creation, it's dead on arrival." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
D+
     (2009)      "What was once a neurotic, awkward climb to the summit of personal achievement has been molested into High School Musical 4. Coco would not approve." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
B
     (2005)      "Even with an empty tank of ideas by the end of the picture, Stone still remains worthy of a view, providing that desired blast of familial idiosyncrasies just in time for the holiday season." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
A-
     (1982)      "It was a beaut of a show, and here at the beginning of a seven-year run, it was already clear that Family Ties would find an easy spot in the annals of classic television." [dvd review]      DVDTalk.com   
  
C
     (2009)      "The war is over, the movie is available in some form to the general public, and the natural response after viewing? The film wasn't worth all the fuss it generated." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
F
     (2005)      "Oh yes, it’s Catwoman bad." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
D+
     (2007)      "Surfing down the face of a building or opening bottomless holes in the Earth? Yes! Lamenting the loss of his loved one and trading therapy sessions with Sue? No!" [movie review]      OhmyNews.com   
  
A
     (2009)      "A breathtaking cinematic marvel; Anderson finds a magnificent home nestled firmly in the luxurious textures of the animation, the dancing vocal performances, and delicious wry tone that makes for stunningly fanciful cinema." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
8/10
     (2002)      "As a pure exercise in recreation, Far From Heaven will astound you, and I would recommend it purely as a feast for the eyes." [movie review]      Modamag.com   
  
C
     (2009)      "Hopefully for the next go-around, the series will plunge even further into the crash-em-ups and flip-e-doos that feel so organic to the attitude of the series, and less into that thing called "acting" I'm assuming the entire cast is trying to pull off." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
D
     (2006)      "Having lived through many a Minnesota winter, call me unimpressed to see a bunch of toy cars swerving wildly around city streets." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
D+
     (2006)      "All Linklater can do is play to the rafters, and for a film that's intended to wean audiences off fast food, you might find yourself purchasing some after the show just to spite this disappointing film." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
B-
     (2004)      "Albert doesn’t embarrass the original creation like it had every right to do, and delivers the Cosby-infused world with minimal pushing or shoving." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
B
     (2007)      "Christian plays it cool, preferring to love his characters first, and use them as teaching tools second. The restraint is a refreshing change of pace." [movie review]      DVDTalk.com   
  
C
     (2007)      "The picture is a misfire, but not a crash, and signals a newfound desire on Hartley's part to return to his roots and explore how he used to conduct business." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
1/10
     (2002)      "An awfully ridiculous horror film that thinks itself grandly mysterious and bone-shakingly horrifying." [movie review]      Modamag.com   
  
B+
     (2006)      "In this day and age when the world grows more unstable by the second, Li's efforts here to encourage reflection on the ideas of inner peace and the uselessness of violence are resoundingly welcome." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
D-
     (2007)      "There's something endearing in the way Benton assumes a little full-frontal is enough to erase the bile that develops watching this agonizing marathon of navel-gazing." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
F
     (2007)      "A horrid excuse for teen escapism...for those who find Hannah Montana too challenging." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
B
     (2005)      "Pitch is a sweet concoction, a valentine to the Red Sox, and a genial romantic comedy. It may not hit a home run, but it has some good hustle to it." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
D
     (2007)      "With a screechingly affected voice (think Nicholson mixed with a sick Chihuahua), Yelchin is all tiring, syllable-pulling raw nerve here; a blinding pitch that holds the film back from needed dramatic expression." [movie review]      DVDTalk.com   
  
D
     (2009)      "The rest of the narrative is a smear of gangster clichés, head-slapping collisions of coincidence, and shirtless Tatum scowling. One has to wonder how a homeless street fighter has the time and tools to shave his entire upper body on a daily basis." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com

     (2003)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      Modamag.com   
  
A-
     (1968)      "The Film Crew DVD series is a sweet treat for the faithful who've missed watching these affable B-movie slayers in front of the camera, entertaining the pants off viewers like nobody's business." [dvd review]      DVDTalk.com   
  
D
     (2008)      "Either Madonna failed to successfully guide her movie to a coherent state of mind or she simply has no gift for filmmaking. A case could be made for both, though the latter is an awfully tempting summarization of Filth and Wisdom." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
B-
     (2004)      "The Final Cut is a subdued experience that can't overcome some critical editing flaws." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
D
     (2009)      "Reheats the package of fate and premonition with snoozy panache. Thought the title all but demands finality to the franchise, something tells me the "Final" at play here is more wicked irony than a welcome promise." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
6/10
     (2003)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      Modamag.com   
  
D
     (2006)      "To get to the good stuff, you have to sit through atrocious dialog, amateur acting, and a snail's pace, and maybe there's 15 minutes of good material here." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
C+
     (2007)      "By making the film so obvious, in an attempt to violently extract the elementary points of joy out of the story, Final Season stumbles aimlessly instead of storming the emotional receptors like its great baseball cinema brethren." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
C-
     (2006)      "The action star can't keep pace with the rest of the film, and fails to provide the ribbons of charm that helped DiNorscio win the hearts of the jurors and the respect of the lawyers." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
B
     (2008)      "Amanda is a generously funny, sharp-edged comedy with unusual promise, and to watch it grow a conscience when clearly the film needed more generous helpings of acid is one of the year's great mysteries." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
5/10
     (2003)      "Nemo isn’t particularly funny, as it includes the usual mix of bodily fluid humor and Pixar’s penchant for movie homages." [movie review]      Modamag.com   
  
B
     (2004)      "Neverland is a heartfelt movie that manages to evoke the magic of "Peter Pan" in the most refreshingly basic, unexpected ways." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
F
     (2009)      "Man-boys, nubile girls, sporting hijinks, and beloved actor John Michael Higgins in a cameo; one would think with these tools the filmmakers could've invited any reaction from the viewer other than the one they achieve: self-immolation." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
D-
     (2007)      "It was during the scene in which the titular character defecates into a stew prepared for dinner where I thought, ya know, this isn't harmless family entertainment anymore; it's a declaration of war on intelligence." [movie review]      OhmyNews.com   
  
B
     (2006)      "For those who enjoy big dumb fun every now and again to clear out the senses, Firewall offers some terrific entertainment in the moments before it begins to confuse itself." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
D
     (2004)      "After sitting through two of these stories now, I can say with authority that being the President’s daughter must be the most boring job in the world." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
B-
     (2005)      "Descent might appeal to those who are curious about the sport, but I have trouble believing it will convert anyone." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
C
     (2007)      "It's a film of great promise, but loses dramatic circulation the longer it spends time chasing its own tail." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
B-
     (2008)      "First Sunday is harmless, church-approved optimism with just enough bawdy behavior to keep general audiences attentive to the lessons on right and wrong and urban fatherhood participation. It's medicine, but it's far more agreeable than I expected." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
B+
     (2006)      "While not Eastwood at his most authoritative, Flags of our Fathers still resonates beautifully with a portrait of lost souls searching for meaning" [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
A
     (1980)      "The film literally explodes with a festival of colors and opulent costume design. It lends the movie a majestic spilled-cocaine imprint that's unmistakable and urges the film into distinctive areas of presentation George Lucas could never follow" [movie review]      DVDTalk.com   
  
B-
     (2008)      "Genius is appealing, and while the story is an odd one, it remains an intriguing observation of underhanded corporate business practices told through formulaic melodramatic trappings." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
B+
     (2007)      "It's a satisfying picture enhanced by a few great sequences, and proves there's still plenty of life in heist cinema." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
D
     (2006)      "There's nothing friendly about this joyless and repellently melodramatic family film." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
D
     (2004)      "Flight of the Phoenix is a rare breed. It joins the small group of films in which the audience may actually wish that the characters do not achieve their goal: to live." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
B
     (2005)      "Flightplan is a good example of Foster’s uncanny ability to make almost any material work." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com
