F
     (2005)      "Stunningly, the end of 'The L.A. Riot Spectacular' promises a sequel taking on the OJ Simpson trial. If I have to physically go to the west coast and prevent this from happening, I'm prepared to make that commitment." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com

D
     (2009)      "Labor Pains is a dreary comedy, lazily going through the motions, accurately reflecting Lohan's current interest level in her own self-worth. There's nothing funny or sweet about it." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
D
     (2009)      "The film is just a puddle of mediocrity from filmmakers who couldn't be bothered with putting some effort into their work, and a lead actress who's only trolling for a quick paycheck." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
B+
     (2004)      "Most of the reason why Ladder resonates so much is the cast, led by a tender, gripping performance from Joaquin Phoenix." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
B
     (2007)      "It's good vs. evil on a plain, flat playing field, but this welcoming minimalism only seems to embolden the entertainment factor of the film, instead of simplifying its appeal." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
D+
     (2006)      "If Shyamalan wants to slap around film critics, hey, fine by me; but to sacrifice your entire film to do so reeks of a director who could stand to hear a little more "no" in his life." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
B
     (2004)      "It might get a little indiscernible at times, but the laughs and guffaws are there, and there’s nobody like the Coens working today who can balance such a peculiar picture so impeccably." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
A-
     (2006)      "Lake House is hazy, low-tech romantic filmmaking, and its no shove policy is exactly why it works so well." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
C-
     (2008)      "Granted, this is hardly Wicker Man 2: NOT THE BEES!, but LaBute should be counted on for a movie with more teeth than what Lakeview Terrace is prepared to offer" [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
1.5/4
     (2009)      "I'd take the Kroffts� crude filmmaking skills and limited coin any day over Will Ferrell sprinting ineffectively around a 100-million-dollar wonderland, making it up as he goes." [movie review]      Sci-Fi Movie Page   
  
1.5/4
     (2009)      "Lost feels haphazardly scripted on cocktail napkins and creatively fueled by paychecks and a series of dares. It's Ferrell harvesting the wilted fields of absurdity, turning mild '70's entertainment into a tuneless slapstick comedy." [movie review]      Sci-Fi Movie Page   
  
5/10
     (2003)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      Modamag.com   
  
F
     (2006)      "That's how awful this picture is. It can't even come up with new diarrhea jokes." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
C
     (2007)      "Gosling is a flannelled laundry pile with a porn star moustache, overdosing on uncut gravitas to such a foolish degree he takes himself right out of the movie's fantastical ambiance." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
B+
     (2006)      "Lassie is old-fashioned family entertainment, and I hope audiences aren't afraid to take a chance on a movie that might not be paced like a race car, but offers gentle adventure and alternative heroism instead." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
B
     (2008)      "Perhaps not the most mesmerizing of love stories, Last Chance Harvey submits one of the most richly acted illustrations of attraction found this year." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
F
     (2005)      "The ferociously tedious and ostentatious Last Days is an insult to the sad life of a rock legend. " [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
C
     (2006)      "Holiday certainly is harmless entertainment, but considering the pedigree of the talent here, the final product is more than a little disappointing." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
F
     (2009)      "A banal, insistently juvenile venture that climaxes loudly from its own gaudy sadism, reveling in sexual violence to a blinding degree that spotlights brazen incompetence over any fundamental genre manipulation." [movie review]      DVDTalk.com   
  
B
     (2006)      "It observes the insanity of Amin through the eyes of a corrupted soul, leaving just enough space between fact and fiction to flesh out a fascinating motion picture." [movie review]      OhmyNews.com   
  
A-
     (2006)      "The Last Kiss is a picture about bad choices, and that's exactly why it should be celebrated." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
B-
     (2007)      "Trust me, it's worth the price of admission to see Colin Firth, an actor of such steely emotional reserve, play butch for two hours in a Mike Brady perm." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
C-
     (2007)      "Mimzy lacks the insight of a seasoned professional. It's a grab bag of themes and sci-fi aspirations that elicit a majestic sense of "huh?" rather than awe." [movie review]      OhmyNews.com   
  
C
     (2003)      "One long, faintly uninspiring experience." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
B
     (1984)      "One of the few successful Spielberg clones, administering the usual routine of aliens and mouth-agape wonder with friendly determination and a perfect, just perfect, game boy screenwriting hook." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
C-
     (2007)      "The film hardly registers as an open-wound document of a spirit more lost than she cares to confront. Instead, Laura Smiles exists somewhere in the middle, frozen by its pretension and incapacity to engage." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
C+
     (2009)      "By the time a robot shows up in a graveyard to mow down the greater Philadelphia D.A. office, it'll take a heavenly force to keep most eyes from rolling." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com

B+
     (2008)      "Executed with a fizzy bang that Clooney pulls off with a prohibition stupor and some knee-slapping generosity; the man knows how to stage a bar fight and a game of verbal chess with the best of them." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com

C+
     (2005)      "In what should've been Antonio Banderas's finest hour as the Mexican superhero, he is instead swallowed up by a second film that doesn't know what to do with him." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
C
     (1989)      "Let It Ride limps to its conclusion, though it doesn't go down without a fight. Pytka struggles to keep the bottle rocket vibe of the movie engaged to the bitter end." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
A
     (2008)      "Right One is a marvel: an ingenious genre film that manages to terrify and endear in the same instant, deftly erecting one of the most persuasive, haunting film experiences of the year." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
F
     (2006)      "Since this stars Dax Shepard, a more appropriate title for Prison might've been Relentlessly Awful, Laugh-Free, Cinematic Torture Device." [movie review]      OhmyNews.com   
  
A
     (1989)      "One of the finest examples of the genre, and, in my humble estimation, one of the greatest sequels put to film. Perhaps deranged hyperbole, but rarely does a follow-up outgun the original film as swiftly as Lethal 2 does." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
B
     (2006)      "What Eastwood has achieved here is authentic and, at select times, achingly humane and riveting. It just isn't efficient." [movie review]      OhmyNews.com   
  
C-
     (1989)      "It's a strained, sexless, and overcooked film...Dalton's game, but the film is inert, perhaps unprepared to work with the new Irish Kiss direction of the series." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
D-
     (2007)      "It makes marriage look like the biggest mistake of all time, and the multiplex a prison from which there is no escape." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
B+
     (2008)      "Life After Tomorrow doesn't reveal much about the creation of Annie, but the disclosures and doubts held by the women who brought it to life are enlightening and touching." [movie review]      DVDTalk.com   
  
A+
     (2004)      "Life Aquatic may not be as cuddly as his other productions, but it still resonates loudly with grace, joy and originality. It’s a remarkable piece of filmmaking." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com

B
     (2008)      "The roles are superbly realized by Wood and Thurman, but the real backbone of the picture is Perelman, who takes great care to weave the small tragedies into a wounded whole." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com

3/10
     (2002)      "Regrettably, Like Mike is more reminiscent of Michael Jordan’s short lived baseball career than his legendary basketball one." [movie review]      Modamag.com   
  
C-
     (2009)      "This is not a hollow motion picture, just an inert one, displaying a puzzling atlas of abstraction that seems sincere enough; there's just not a single reason to care about any of it." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
9/10
     (1994)      "A film of unusual visual and emotional magnitude for Disney." [movie review]      Modamag.com   
  
B+
     (2007)      "An exhilarating piece of direction that begs the question, Robert Redford? This is the same man who's been content making the cinematic equivalent of reading the L.L. Bean catalog for his entire career, and now he's ready for a bare-knuckle brawl?" [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com
