B-
     (2008)      "It's an actor carnival trapped inside a web of harmless clichés, and while the material can be corrosive at times, the film manages to please with its amiable execution." [movie review]      DVDTalk.com   
  
4/10

C
     (2006)      "Friedlander knows visual filmmaking, and only here does she shine. When time comes to address the secret lives of her dancing delinquents, the film grows two left feet." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
A-
     (2009)      "It's a simple genre beat down with an outstanding vision for aggression; a convincing cartoon for those who like their revenge served cold and their parental responsibility depicted as nothing short of absolute." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
B
     (2004)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
D
     (2009)      "Pelham would've been better served by a handful of Ritalin, or perhaps a director who wouldn't dare sacrifice rollicking suspense to feed his meaningless camera fetishes." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
     (2009)      "Pelham would’ve been better served by a handful of Ritalin, or perhaps a director who wouldn’t dare sacrifice rollicking suspense to feed his meaningless camera fetishes. Stick with the 1974 version." [movie review]      Dark Horizons   
  
C
     (2009)      "A distraction that steals Lee's concentration, leaving the film in the same condition as the real Woodstock: muddy, scattered, and overlong." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
C-
     (2008)      "It's frustrating to watch Tale flounder as much as it does, but when the filmmakers don't seem particularly comfortable with the source material, it doesn't invite the viewer inside to experience any potential magic." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
B
     (2007)      "No matter the tonal peaks and valleys, Talk to Me brings Greene's attitude to the big screen with confidence, led by Cheadle's amazing performance." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
A-
     (2006)      "Rarely is any joked shoved into the audiences' faces, and the story, as silly as it gets, is adhered to in ways that make 'Anchorman' resemble a box of spilled Legos." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
D
     (2004)      "Films as lightweight as this usually can be counted on for some smiles, thrills, and good times. Taxi lacks all three. " [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
A-
     (2004)      "Team America might sound like a backyard enterprise, but this highly detailed motion picture could stand proudly alongside any blockbuster." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
7/10
     (2003)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      Modamag.com   
  
D
     (2007)      "Unprofessional...this new Commandments is the work of the devil himself." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
A
     (2006)      "The Pick of Destiny is a Gravitron ride of nard-crunching brilliance and explosivo satisfaction, and it's been a long time coming for Tenacious D." [movie review]      OhmyNews.com   
  
B+
     (2004)      "What he has here might be flawed, but it’s reassuring to see the director return to his roots of character exploration in a fanciful location." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
7/10
     (2003)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      Modamag.com   
  
2/4
     (2009)      "Salvation is a cold, blunt summer movie misfire, infatuated with mindless explosions like an infant with fecal matter...a lumbering, joyless detour into unappetizing Hollywood recycling." [movie review]      Sci-Fi Movie Page   
  
4/10
     (2003)      "About a threatening as a Nine Inch Nails music video." [movie review]      Modamag.com   
  
D-
     (2006)      "The idea of more kids getting lost in the hidden interstates of Texas, lining up for the slaughter is, frankly, fairly boring. I mean, come on...even Police Academy went to Miami Beach for their fifth film." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
D
     (2006)      "I found it incredibly challenging to get excited about Reitman's vision, especially when his satiric targets are exceedingly stale, toothless, and some way too cutesy for a film that looks to draw blood." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
3/4
     (2008)      "Clone Wars can be a complete gas to more open-minded fans, and assured catnip to children. The occasional sexually-ambiguous Hutt or sassmouthed, premenstrual Jedi aside, it's an exciting picture and a tempting commencement for the television serie" [movie review]      Sci-Fi Movie Page   
  
D+
     (2008)      "Refusing to take Wise's nuanced lead, the new Stood is a grotesque creation that prefers noise to thought, clumsily slapping together an eco-minded warning siren in the guise of a bloated Roland Emmerich creation." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
B+
     (2004)      "Robert Zemeckis furthers his reputation as a groundbreaking filmmaker, guiding Express to charming holiday merriment and many other unexpected delights." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
C+
     (2007)      "The opening two reels of the picture are masterful. Then the rest of the film happens...this picture contains greatness, but only in the smallest amounts." [movie review]      DVDTalk.com   
  
B+
     (2008)      "Sharing ace chemistry with Hunt, Midler's scenes are the jewels of the film; a reminder of how impressive her talent is and how much her recent career direction has failed to capitalize on her gifts." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
A
     (2007)      "It's almost needless to write that Daniel Day-Lewis tears into the role with hurricane-like authority. This is not acting, folks, it's a demonic possession." [movie review]      DVDTalk.com   
  
C
     (2005)      "Folks means well with its combination of slapstick comedy and tearjerking material, yet it’s a random picture, never quite gelling the way Reiser imagines it." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
A-
          "Things to Do is the perfect modest alternative to the other infinitely more unremarkable attempts at addressing the hopes and fears of a restless generation." [movie review]      DVDTalk.com   
  
A
     (2007)      "Haunting cinema...an exquisite film of mammoth dramatic reach and sympathy, and it presents Susanne Bier as one of the most observant, patient filmmakers working today." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com

B
     (2007)      "After four Tyler Perry feature films, we finally have the very first official knockoff with This Christmas. Of course, with such an honor comes a delicious twist: it's miles ahead of anything Perry could muster." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
A-
     (2007)      "It's a thoroughly exhaustive, hand-wringing emotional stick of provincial dynamite that viciously grabs the audience by the collar and drags them through the gummy muck of lives gone horribly wrong." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
B+
     (2007)      "A lovely film of small intentions, yet embellished with an enormous heart." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
C+
     (2004)      "What’s here is promising, but if the Thunderbirds decide to 'go' again, the filmmakers should involve the whole family, the way this story was intended to be." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com

C+
     (2005)      "While the animation wizardry is eye opening, all the technical expertise in the world can’t stop the film from feeling labored, and lacking some serious inspiration." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com

3.5/4
     (2009)      "It's beautifully crafted and endearingly old-fashioned all the way; an alluring soap opera for those who like to dive into the deep end of the syrup pool." [movie review]      Sci-Fi Movie Page   
  
D-
     (2003)      "A big, dumb action fantasy that could be easily digestible and provide some rollicking Saturday matinee entertainment. Outside of the big and dumb part, it fails on almost every other level." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
A-
     (2007)      "It's a delight to report that the return of the brawlin' reptiles lives up to and surpasses even the most potent expectations." [movie review]      OhmyNews.com   
  
B+
     (2007)      "Tortilla Heaven is a consistently engaging motion picture, made with obvious love for the isolated location and for the spirit of a supportive community." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
B-
     (2004)      "A good pseudo-documentary, but the nagging questions could’ve easily replaced the wasteful screen time given to hammering home the obvious situation: that these climbers found themselves in quite a bind, with only instinct keeping them alive and moving." [movie review]      FilmJerk.com   
  
B-
     (2008)      "Towelhead is a familiar playground for Ball and his obsession with suburban decay, but remains sharply realized by the cast, who turn pure ugliness into an exhaustive psychological obstacle course." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
A
     (1995)      "A magnificent film, created with a then unproven playful spirit that merges broad cartoon antics with an endearing eye toward nostalgia -- the heartbreaking years when wonder turns to knowledge and maturation." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
B
     (1999)      "Toy Story 2 always struck me as a disappointment. It's a fine movie with plenty of spirit, but the franchise formula feels diluted, lacking the spark of creativity that made the original film sing." [movie review]      BrianOrndorf.com   
  
D+
     (2007)      "Trade plays like a slightly more culturally aware episode of Walker, Texas Ranger." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com
