2/5	"The British countryside provides a pretty framework, unfortunately the picture inside doesn't fit the bill." Posted Dec 30, 2006	Keeping Mum (2006)	55%
2/5	"It�s a dreary, depressing slog until finally there's a tiny, tiny hint that the world could possibly contain joy, love and peace, instead of a wealth of evil." Posted Dec 1, 2006	The Nativity Story (2006)	39%
2.5/5	"Maria Bello's skill and onscreen presence speak volumes about the mother's thoughts and feelings, even when the script leaves her high and dry." Posted Oct 28, 2006	Flicka (2006)	55%
2.5/5	"Over all, though not surprisingly, the result is too sharply slanted in favor of Wilson's genius rather than in questioning his talent." Posted Oct 28, 2006	Absolute Wilson (2006)	75%
2/5	"*Watching The Guardian* is like treading water in a cold tank when you'd rather be sun-basking on a raft in a tranquil cove.*" Posted Sep 29, 2006*	The Guardian (2006)	37%
3/5	"It's a gumbo stew of a movie in which all the ingredients don't meld neatly, but then it has an excuse: Nature beat it to the punch." Posted Sep 23, 2006	Hurricane on the Bayou (2006)	85%
4/5	"Forest Whitaker's performance as Idi Amin is so good it's scary." Posted Sep 19, 2006	The Last King of Scotland (2006)	87%
3/5	"Overall it's simply good fun, kind and caring at heart even when relationships get nasty as tension mounts." Posted Sep 14, 2006	Confetti (2006)	58%
2.5/5	"Martha Coolidge's direction treats the whole adventure with more respect than it deserves, which also makes one wish that she'd been able to work with the Duffs on something much more worthwhile." Posted Aug 26, 2006	Material Girls (2006)	4%
2.5/4	"The anti-bullying message, which is the heart of the story, is too insistent, as the concocting and consuming of the ghastly worm-based snacks very quickly begins to point to a too-obvious conclusion." Posted Aug 25, 2006	How to Eat Fried Worms (2006)	58%
2.5/4	"*Like the insect world it depicts, The Ant Bully,* based on John Nickle's book, is neatly structured and cohesive, but a little small-scale.*" Posted Jul 28, 2006*	The Ant Bully (2006)	63%
3.5/5	"Meredith has created a mood piece that avoids self-indulgence as it explores the self-indulgent nature of a handful of diverse people, caught up in the major and minor miseries of life's foolish ironies and genuine woes." Posted Jul 21, 2006	Three Days of Rain (2002)	40%
2/5	"Dupree's presence is annoying and disruptive, but not remotely convincing as a legitimate catalyst for exposing anything insightful, amusing or charming about modern relationships." Posted Jul 14, 2006	You, Me and Dupree (2006)	22%
4/5	"Bright, concise and to the point." Posted Jun 16, 2006	Wordplay (2006)	95%
2.5/5	"The filmmakers can't be faulted for trying; it's a decent effort, but nevertheless misses out in both the mind and body categories, and rather overdoes the spirit." Posted Jun 2, 2006	Peaceful Warrior (2006)	23%
2/5	"Director Peyton Reed really does seem to be trying to probe for something more worthy, to find some insight into modern-day relationships, but it simply isn't there." Posted Jun 2, 2006	The Break-Up (2006)	33%
3.5/5	"Gregory has all the necessary quicksilver, will-o-the-wisp, mercurial charm to play Jones, making his brilliantly etched personality seductive and fascinating, whether he's being gorgeously appealing or viciously mean." Posted Mar 24, 2006	Stoned (2006)	15%
4/5	"Take the plunge. This is one instance where it's totally delightful to feel like you're swimming with sharks." Posted Mar 3, 2006	Deep Sea (IMAX) (2006)	91%
3.5/5	"There is a peeping tom mood to this amusing and often surprising tale, which follows the fortunes of a dress from drawing board to ragged demise." Posted Feb 25, 2006	The Dress (1996)	80%
1.5/5	"This is a story about people who have no one to blame but themselves. The same goes for the filmmakers." Posted Feb 10, 2006	London (2006)	14%
3/5	"Lori Silverbush and Michael Skolnik's film must live and die on the strength of its lead performers. Luckily, most of the time they are up to the challenge." Posted Jan 13, 2006	On the Outs (2005)	93%
1.5/5	"They are hollow people mooning their way through a backdrop of endless battles in which wild-haired, wild-eyed men chop each other about." Posted Jan 13, 2006	Tristan & Isolde (2006)	32%
3/5	"Refreshingly old-fashioned." Posted Sep 30, 2005	Sue�o (2005)	43%
3/5	"Like a thumbed-through flipbook, it merges humor and pain in fascinating overlap." Posted Sep 30, 2005	The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio (2005)	58%
2.5/5	"Despite some amusing and touching scenes, it is a bit too sitcom-like for its own good." Posted Sep 16, 2005	The Thing About My Folks (2005)	43%
2.5/5	"Despite all the on-screen intensity, we are locked out." Posted Aug 12, 2005	Asylum (2005)	37%
2.5/5	"*Too pat when it needs to be hairy, Must Love Dogs* fails to find the undercurrents of complex emotion beneath its pretty patter surface.*" Posted Jul 29, 2005*	Must Love Dogs (2005)	35%
1.5/5	"Stuck in a role that no one could steer straight, Lindsay Lohan looks aged by the experience." Posted Jun 22, 2005	Herbie: Fully Loaded (2005)	41%
2.5/5	"Mail Order Wife is a con. A good con, it's true, but like all cons it leaves a sour taste once the trick is revealed." Posted Apr 23, 2005	Mail Order Wife (2005)	63%
3/5	"It is satisfying to see fine actors express emotions in a completely relatable way, but the dimensions of the sorrows and understanding depicted don't really make for much dramatic excitement." Posted Apr 23, 2005	Winter Solstice (2005)	62%
2.5/5	"It's somehow out of sync with its own rhythms and moods, thus its impact is much slighter than might be expected from an idea approached with intelligence and insight by Rebecca Miller and conveyed by as talented a clutch of actors." Posted Apr 2, 2005	The Ballad of Jack and Rose (2005)	47%
2/5	"It's kinda sweet, completely vacuous, and not really very entertaining." Posted Mar 24, 2005	Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous (2005)	14%
2/5	"Nobody in the movie seems to know quite what sentiment he or she should be channeling at any given moment." Posted Feb 25, 2005	Diary of a Mad Black Woman (2005)	16%
1.5/5	"*Updating classics to meld with the sensibilities of the current era is only forgivable when the modernization truly honors the source and adds to the enjoyment. Pooh's Heffalump Movie* does neither.*" Posted Feb 10, 2005*	Pooh's Heffalump Movie (2005)	77%
2.5/5	"Romantic comedy is a tough genre to pull off in this crass and explicit day and age. This movie gives it a perky try, but its formula, unlike its hired-for-the-occasion leading man, just isn't the right package." Posted Feb 4, 2005	The Wedding Date (2005)	10%
4/5	"When the cameras focus on the weird geography and strange beings of the ocean depths and on the expressive reactions of those observing it all through the walls of their vessels, they capture a wonder you feel privileged to behold." Posted Jan 30, 2005	Aliens of the Deep (2005)	81%
2.5/5	"Intellectually, the story isn't as compelling Kafkaesque at it probably wants to be, but at least it has a mind of its own." Posted Jan 21, 2005	Fear X (2003)	55%
2.5/5	"Aims to be a whale of a tale but in the process dissipates some of the very clever hilarity usually squeezed into the brief small-screen episodes." Posted Nov 18, 2004	The Spongebob Squarepants Movie (2004)	69%
3/5	"*Although it makes no bones about preaching to the choir, Woman, Thou Art Loosed* has enough force as a searing emotional drama to transcend religious boundaries.*" Posted Oct 1, 2004*	Woman, Thou Art Loosed (2004)	50%
3/5	"The film's structure leaves many unanswered questions, but doesn't get in the way of both laughs and/or outrage -- depending on where viewers' political sympathies lie." Posted Sep 24, 2004	The Yes Men (2004)	85%
2/5	"It has no sharp edge, few laughs, and never successfully probes beneath the surface of the milieu it attempts to explore." Posted Sep 17, 2004	Wimbledon (2004)	61%
2.5/5	"*The hustle has always seemed more exciting than the payoff for James Toback. When Will I Be Loved* is no exception to this filmmaker's own idiosyncratic rules of conduct.*" Posted Sep 10, 2004*	When Will I Be Loved (2004)	33%
3/5	"An intelligently rendered film (shot on video) that doesn't seek to make its central characters overtly sympathetic even as it stresses the human rights so thoughtlessly or deliberately denied them." Posted Aug 27, 2004	Proteus (2003)	29%
1.5/5	"Despite all the excessive overlays of set-design, costuming and sugary sweet sappiness, this sequel is a dead artifact." Posted Aug 15, 2004	Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement (2004)	27%
1.5/5	"The director's best efforts to try to balance heart with farce and nice-girl folly with mean-girl meddling do not create any sort of believable whole." Posted Aug 8, 2004	Little Black Book (2004)	23%
1/5	"It may be true that all 14-year-olds desire to be older and strive to appear so, but exploring those wishes and dreams in such a superficial, coarse and insensitive way as this movie does is neither responsible nor good entertainment for anyone of any age" Posted Jul 11, 2004	Sleepover (2004)	16%
2/5	"A clip package of interesting snapshots of landscapes and people whirled by fast enough to look like something meaningful, but essentially no more interesting that a neighbor's vacation video." Posted Jul 4, 2004	America's Heart and Soul (2004)	49%
3/5	"Jean-Jacques Annaud finds what comes across as genuine emotion and complex thought processes in the beautiful faces of his lead stars." Posted Jun 25, 2004	Two Brothers (2004)	78%
3/5	"A blend of fact and fiction that audiences might find puzzling and at times a little self-indulgent, but sometimes very funny and occasionally quite touching." Posted May 27, 2004	Frankie & Johnny are Married (2004)	70%
3/5	"Despite the movie's rather unoriginal story -- that age-old plot about running off to the join the circus -- at least the filmmakers have created something which, though a little bland, is never crass or vulgar." Posted Apr 23, 2004	Clifford's Really Big Movie (2004)	52%
