3/5
     (2008)      "In Alex the Lion and Marty the Zebra, we finally have the first unabashedly gay characters in a major Hollywood animated feature." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
0.5/5
     (2005)      "I haven't seen such meaningful insight into the nature of human cooperation since this morning's Sesame Street." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
2.5/5
     (2004)      "Seriously, someone needs to stage an intervention, sit Scott down, and tell him that repeated jump cuts, slow-motion shots, and fiddling around with the exposure don’t enhance the viewing experience, they detract from it." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
4/5
     (2004)      "What is surprising is how fresh Demme’s version is and how close it approaches the original in terms of quality." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
4/5
     (2004)      "What is surprising is how fresh Demme's version is and how close it approaches the original in terms of quality." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
3.5/5
     (2007)      "Slow in places, but the feeling of foreboding you’ll take away from it is undeniable." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
.5/5
     (2006)      "Without daddy's money...Coppola's emaciated screenplay would still be moldering on her hard drive as the author worked the 10-4 shift at the Starbucks on Figueroa." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
1.5/5
     (2008)      " ... [W]hen an animal is endangering your family, inadvertently or not, you either turn the dog into an outdoor pet or you "take a walk" with him and your 20-gauge." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
2/5
     (2004)      "Roach continues his regrettable Austin Powers habit of beating the same shtick to death until nothing of comedy value remains." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
2/5
     (2004)      "The expected misunderstandings ensue, as you’d expect, which would be pretty excruciating if not for the performances of Hoffman and Streisand." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
2.5/5
     (2006)      "This updated version, starring Colin Farrell as Crockett and Jamie Foxx as Tubbs, is far from a disaster, but doesn't rank with Mann's best work." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
4/5
     (2007)      "What elevates it above the depressingly familiar storyline are the performances." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
3.5/5
     (2007)      "he movie is engrossing and well-acted throughout ... but ultimately leaves us less optimistic about the prospects for peace." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
4/5
     (2005)      "That rarest of creatures: a family film -- one of surprising warmth -- that won't have adults reaching for an airsick bag." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
1.5/5
     (2005)      "From its paper-thin plot to the utterly flat script, virtually nothing works." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
2.5/5
     (2006)      "Lacking Bond's refinement and good humor or the comparable realism of the Bourne Identity franchise, M:I 3 ends up as just another forgettable action movie." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
2.5/5
     (2006)      "Shot in such a way as to make the castle seem like it resides in another world, The Monastery is interesting enough." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
4.5/5
     (2006)      "Obviously, this is a movie aimed at pre-adolescents and not 30-something emotional cripples like me, but I felt the movie could've been a little more ghastly." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
2.5/5
     (2007)      "Smith is ... an insufferable, motor-mouthed douchebag that the audience will be begging for someone, anyone, to kill. In short, it's the role Cook was born to play." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
3.5/5
     (2005)      "[Spielberg] raises some serious questions about the efficacy of violence, it's just too bad he felt the need to sugarcoat the message in order to broaden the film's appeal" [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
3/5
     (2007)      "There are a surprising number of laughs, and the saccharine content is kept to a minimum. A mostly enjoyable experience, all told." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
3/5
     (2007)      "The plot is paper-thin, and the set-up is beyond contrived (a plant waterer?), but there are a surprising number of laughs, and the saccharine content is kept to a minimum." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
1.5/5
     (2005)      "The movie wastes the talents of its two leads by refusing to take any risks with the material, marching in lockstep to every genre cliché." [movie review]      Film Threat
