C
     (2004)      "Even in Hollywood, the more things change (technology, end of the Cold War, corporate influence), the more things stay the same (greed, avarice, powerlust)." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews   
  
C
     (2003)      "The mirthless atmosphere and laid-back narrative strip Crowe and his aquatic drama of any fun it could have had." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews   
  
B
     (2005)      "A surprising return to form for the venerated director, recalling (if not matching) his best work from the 80's." [movie review]      Modern Fabulousity   
  
D+
     (2003)      "A by-the-book action picture that has no revolutionary aspects at all -- overlong, overthought and overdone." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews   
  
C
     (2002)      "Are monsters born, or made?" [movie review]      Mixed Reviews   
  
C
     (2005)      "Instead of revealing the inner sanctum of Japan's traditionalist heart, Geisha wades clumsily through a series of beautiful sets, hackneyed plots and stunning costumes." [movie review]      Modern Fabulousity   
  
D+
     (2002)      "Lacks the sophistication it needs to be truly effective, hopelessly lost in its unfunny gags and weak plotting." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews   
  
B+
     (2007)      "In some scenes, Clayton is the kick in the pants the whodunit genre desperately needs" [movie review]      Modern Fabulousity   
  
B+
     (2008)      "In Van Sant's hands, it's both a story for the ages, and a story for our age." [movie review]      Modern Fabulousity   
  
C+
     (2006)      "A perky style reminiscent of second-rate Jane Austen....a parable of female empowerment and class strife swathed in bustles and British witticisms." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews   
  
C
     (2003)      "A mixed-genre mutt that cribs liberally from John Ford to fashion a tale of families battling the elements, the frontier, and each other." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews   
  
D+
     (2003)      "almost despicably lazy storytelling... Director / screenwriter Patty Jenkins has tried to humanize a despicable person, and she is completely ineffective at doing that." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews   
  
B+
     (2004)      "Roger Michell may be the most underrated director working today." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews   
  
A-
     (2004)      "Eloquently and remarkably captures the budding ethical, emotional, and political sensibilities of a legendary man of history." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews   
  
A
     (2001)      "If one is able to give oneself over to the heady mix of improbable fantasy that Luhrman paints with his broad brush, MOULIN ROUGE can be something akin to ecstasy." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews   
  
A
     (2005)      "A raw and unadorned look at child abuse and its idiosyncratic repercussions." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews   
  
B+
     (2003)      "If Euripides had ever known Catholic guilt, he might have written something quite similar to Mystic River." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews
