2/5
     (2008)      "I have to give Emmerich credit for creating a film that's been funnier than '27 Dresses' or 'Over Her Dead Body.'" [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3/5
     (2009)      "'17 Again' demonstrates that Effron has rightfully earned some of the rampant adulation that has come his way." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
1/5
     (2009)      "It's pointless to fault '2012' for being silly or perpetuating scientific and historic baloney. Instead, the new movie's unforgivable transgression is that it fails to make any of the apocalyptic destruction fun." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
2/5
     (2008)      "Screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna, who adapted the far superior 'The Devil Wears Prada' for the screen, has penned a tale of love that makes a viewer long for eternal solitude." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2007)      "'300' would have been a truly Olympian feat if it had characters that were as finely wrought as the images." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2005)      "The mature gross out comedy." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "This broken affair is more entertaining than most successful ones." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3/5
    
9
(2009)
     "Because '9' runs only 79 minutes, Acker almost gets by on the intricate and distinctive visuals." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "British actor Hugh Dancy manages an astonishing feat by making viewers empathize with a character that has trouble feeling empathy." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "There are still puke jokes in 'Adventureland' as there were in 'Superbad,' but it's nice to see that Mottola can help viewers get in touch with another body function, the beat of a heart." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3/5
     (2005)      "You don’t need the 3D glasses to see the flaws." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
2/5
     (2004)      "That's when most of us sleep." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
2.5/5
     (2009)      "'Amelia' plays less like a movie and more like a timeline." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4.5/5
     (2009)      "Scherfig and Hornby have a winningly droll sense of humor, but the main reason to see An Education is because they treat viewers as if they were as intelligent as Jenny." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2004)      "Nothing in Anchorman will be mistaken for the work of Preston Sturges, but the occasional chuckle and even a loud guffaw is unavoidable." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3/5
     (2009)      "Bell's charm and finesse with a right hook help elevate Angel of Death from being a mundane straight-to-DVD offering." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
2.5/4
     (2009)      "It's easy to think of Ron Howard's new effort Angels & Demons as more of an apology than a movie." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
1/5
     (2005)      "The movie never passes up an opportunity to insult viewers of all ages." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2006)      "Zygoff and Clowes do get the most out of their first-rate cast and prove that hollow laughs are far superior to no laughs at all." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3.5/5
     (2009)      "'Away We Go' is still funny and occasionally touching, but it might have been even more entertaining if Mendes and the screenwriters hadn't tried to so hard to make us laugh." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "It's not surprising the film was Germany's 2008 submission for a Best Foreign Language Film Oscar." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3/5
     (2005)      "Thornton’s virtuoso performance is the only reason to plunk down hard earned bucks for this surprisingly lifeless remake of 'The Bad News Bears.'" [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2008)      "Sibling writer-directors Jay and Mark Duplass have figured out how to use their meager resources to intriguing effect. After watching "Baghead," I'm not sure if I've seen a horror film or a comedy, and I'm sure that's what the Duplass brothers intended." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
2/5
     (2007)      "Thanks to a sloppy, anemic script and indifferent direction, 'Balls of Fury' lacks the stones to be genuinely entertaining." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3.5/5
     (2009)      "Co-writer-director Todd Graff doesn't look at teens or their issues in a condescending light." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
2/5
     (2006)      "With 'Barnyard,' the androgynous udders, as annoying as they can be, are about the only original thing to be found in the whole movie." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
1/5
     (2006)      " To get to those shots of Stone's chest and thighs, however, the audience has to wait through a two-hour story that's so tedious that the audience may walk out before Stone eventually liberates herself from her clothing." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3.5/5
     (2008)      "It's a little odd that making a film for children has almost made Adam Sandler grow up." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
2/5
     (2007)      "Unless your idea of wit is an unrelenting stream of groan-inducing insect puns, "Bee Movie" offers little more than buzzkill." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2007)      "Somehow, Lumet and his expert cast are able to make his shady characters compelling even though these folks might pause for only a passing thought before stabbing each other in the back, literally." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3/5
     (2004)      "Watching Being Julia is like seeing a racehorse with an impeccable bloodline trudging across the finish line with the rest of the pack instead of out in front of it" [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3/5
     (2007)      "While the new 'Beowulf' easily meets its quota for computer-generated spectacle and gore, the script has interesting touches but isn't for the ages." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
2/5
     (2005)      "It’s got some special effects, but the magic’s in short supply." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
2/5
     (2004)      "Mack the Butter Knife" [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3/5
     (2004)      "If he can refine his writing and keep his heart in the right place, Schroder's next movie might offer the impact that 'Black Cloud' is missing." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3/5
     (2006)      "The ensemble structure of 'Bobby' becomes problematic, because some the stories are clumsy and dull." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2008)      "'Bolt' is consistently entertaining because its characters are so endearing." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
5/5
     (2006)      "With its frequently astute social observations, "Borat" effortlessly uses bad taste for a good cause." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2008)      "The new British film 'Boy A' poses a question that is easy to ask but nearly impossible to answer: Can we ever really escape from our own misdeeds?" [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3/5
     (2008)      "Herman has the unenviable task of presenting a challenging and delicate topic like the Holocaust honestly, while at the same time delivering his tale in a kid-friendly way." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3.5/5
     (2009)      "Hicks' rambling pacing and Cubitt's routine approach to the story prevent 'The Boys Are Back' from reaching its potential." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
2/5
     (2006)      "Just because performers click romantically off-screen doesn't mean you need to pay good money to watch them in movies that are less interesting than the stories they inspire in supermarket tabloids." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4.5/5
     (2009)      "With 'Bright Star,' New Zealand's Jane Campion ('The Piano') has managed to write and direct an engrossing film about a man whose achievements can only be found on the page and in the heart." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "Unlike the con artists the movie depicts, 'The Brothers Bloom' rewards rather than exploits viewers by defying their expectations." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "But by pointing out how low some people will sink to hit the heights of fame, Baron Cohen can raise as many valid discussions as he can squirms." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
3/5
     (2009)      "All of these seemingly disparate stories are related, but Arriaga connects them more slowly than an alert viewer can on his or her own." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
2/5
     (2007)      "To Paraphrase Denis Leary: I'm stoned; I'm nobody. I'm stoned; I'm famous. I'm stoned; I'm dead." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "It might seem like a fantasy for the baker interviewed in the film to be making $60,000 a year and benefits, but Moore proves the idea is less fictitious than the ones that sank Lehman Brothers." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2006)      "'Casino Royale' finally restores 007 to his Cold War prowess." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2006)      "'Catch a Fire' is proof that revenge may be a dish that's best not served at all." [movie review]      eFilmCritic.com
