D+
     (2007)      "Upon further inspection, not only can I stop the beat, but I would like to turn this stopping of beats into a national movement. Do yourself a favor and just revisit the original Waters film. Your senses will thank you in the morning." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
5/10
     (2002)      "Paul shamelessly guides his film through the motions, without any idea that what he is committing to film here is beyond played out." [movie review]      Modamag.com   
  
B+
     (2007)      "A scrappy, semi-brilliant reawakening of a fabulous horror icon, and the best part about it? No Busta Rhymes." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
B-
     (2009)      "A demented, uninhibited sequel that tears off in a vividly lunatic direction. Zombie's making this one for himself, folks, and either you succumb to the experience or every single scene is going to feel like multiplex imprisonment." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
D
     (2008)      "Watching Steve Coogan overact is like being pummeled bloody with a pillowcase packed tightly with frozen oranges." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
B+
     (2008)      "Adam Carolla isn't everyone's cup of tea, but the man can sling around an acidic one-liner with the best of them, and his starring debut is a familiar, but persuasively funny brew of clichés and belly laughs." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
B-
     (2008)      "Hancock is horrendously disjointed and barely manages to tell a story, but I was delighted by its charisma and Will Smith's unexpected middle-finger timing." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
B+
     (2009)      "Restores faith in Phillips and the vulgar passions of the R-rated comedy, assembling a smutty epic of irresponsibility that handles with a certain amount of routine, but still delivers huge on laughs and knowing cringes." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
B+
     (2008)      "An infectious, high-energy performance picture that overcomes its rather unsavory purpose by barreling forward with a nuclear bomb of tween enthusiasm and vivid displays of over-choreographed celebration." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
C
     (2009)      "I might not possess the tools to compute country star cameos and vital supporting characters, but an infuriatingly slack pace doesn't need a weekend cram session of DVD box sets to detect." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
D+
     (2007)      "The Weinstein Company went out of their way to make sure I didn't see a press screening of Hannibal Rising this week. Now I understand why." [movie review]      OhmyNews.com   
  
C
     (2008)      "Happening promises a change of pace, but the magic only lasts for a few moments, then it's all open acre isolation, media blackouts, and mysterious threats with extended, mouth-agape pauses." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
D-
     (2007)      "There's one great clue that the picture was not born in Hollywood: the heaving bosoms. Only the Germans would bestow such careful, pillowy attention to the bustline of the wicked stepmother and the flying witches." [movie review]      OhmyNews.com   
  
D+
     (2005)      "Happy Endings needed much more than the intricacies of styling gel to explore the heart of its characters." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
C
     (2006)      "Happy Feet dances up a storm, but instead of smiles, Miller's cloudy creation will surely elicit blank stares from duped parents and head-spinning confusion from little kids." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
D+
     (2005)      "Wilson might be playing a rapist of teenagers, but after 10 minutes of watching Page contort and stammer in such a loud, self-aware fashion, he doesn't look like such a bad guy after all." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com

A-
     (1990)      "Nearly two decades later, Hardware retains its merciless poise, and while the filmmaker has slipped into obscurity, his finest work still lunges for the throat." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
D-
     (2008)      "I'd assumed I would never have to write this, but I miss the confident directorial touch of the guy who made Dude, Where's My Car?" [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
C
     (2004)      "Features quite possibly the worst, most unfunny scene of the 2004 film year." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
8/10
     (2002)      "Simply put, if you liked Sorcerer’s Stone, you’ll like Chamber Of Secrets." [movie review]      Modamag.com   
  
A-
     (2005)      "Goblet of Fire is easily the most confident of the series, with the production finally comfortable with the demands of the divided audience, and not afraid to please both." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
A-
     (2009)      "Yates once again brings out the best in the exposition-intense material, and while he's not permitted the same amount of apocalyptic fury as before, he stylishly crafts a consistent, riveting, and optically stupendous sequel." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
A-
     (2007)      "Phoenix manages to top that potential in an immense way, compacting the longest "Potter" book into the shortest film yet, streamlining the urgency into a tasty pudding fan and non-fan should positively respond to." [movie review]      OhmyNews.com

     (2006)      "Harsh Times certainly wins points for being a vivid evocation of Los Angeles criminal life; I only wish Ayer had stuck with the almost improvisational feeling of the film's midsection for the whole shebang." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com

B-
     (2009)      "Manages to break free from heavy iron genre chains and provide a spooky event that might not send the average viewer screaming out of the theater, but it could induce some heavy fingernail chewing during the ride." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
D-
     (2008)      "When it comes to excruciating Halloween activities, I think I'd prefer a Milky Way/razor blade surprise to this asinine, pathetic motion picture." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
D+
     (2004)      "It's been 17 years since Dirty Dancing took the world by storm, and all these years later, Havana Nights is here to remind everyone just how to strike when the iron is ice cold." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
D-
     (2006)      "As much as I was bored to tears with the drama, I was fascinated by where Flowers was going with this train wreck." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com

B
     (2007)      "The nightmare is enhanced by Slater's gonzo performance. It's great to see the once mighty king of cool challenged in Quiet Man with a complex role that Slater bites down hard on." [movie review]      DVDTalk.com   
  
C
     (2009)      "The film is a gelatinous mess of tones and characters aching to solidify, only to find the chilly reality of dating and marriage perhaps too isolating to candidly confront." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com

     (2007)      "Heart of an Empire, as mawkish as it might sound, is a sweetly clear blue sky piece of filmmaking, and encapsulates a rare breath of gee-whiz, irony-and-politic-free perspective that could do the world some good." [movie review]      DVDTalk.com

B+
     (2007)      "It's the Farrellys picking up where they left off with 2000's Me, Myself & Irene, dishing out a line-up of audience-goosing bits; spiky material that returns a little of the water-cooler visibility they used to enjoy (two words: donkey show)" [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com

A
     (1989)      "So grab your croquet mallet, load up on "Ich luge" bullets, and crank up the Big Fun: Heathers is a motion picture that continues to impress and disturb, even 20 years after release." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
C-
     (2008)      "Heckler doesn't penetrate like a proper documentary should; it's more silly than exploratory, missing a prime opportunity to crack open a dialogue between critic and performer that could generously benefit both parties." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com

     (2008)      "I've never seen a film directed by a penis before. We came close with 1984's Hardbodies, but Hell Ride appears to have been fully helmed by Larry Bishop's male appendage." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
B-
     (2004)      "With Hellboy, this battle between story and effects is one that is bitterly fought." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
3/4
     (2008)      "Army fulfills every sci-fi fantasy around, but watching Hellboy find his purpose, contemplate his newly complicated future, or recall his past is where the real awe of the premise is found, not by dancing the "Monster Mash" until your eyes bleed." [movie review]      Sci-Fi Movie Page   
  
D+
     (2008)      "A grossly obvious take on the draining push and pull of faith, the picture is warm to the touch, just not digestible or, ultimately, meaningful." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com
