Posted Feb 23, 2002
 
Rollerball (2002)4%

Posted Mar 5, 2001
 
The Million Dollar Hotel (2001)24%

Posted Mar 5, 2001
 
The Wedding Planner (2001)15%

"Too often in the movie, we find ourselves looking around the edges more than at the portrait of this "central" figure"
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
A Friend of the Deceased (1998)64%

Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
Blues Brothers 2000 (1998)45%
/
 
"A slight film if ever there was one."
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
Chuck & Buck (2000)84%

"So intent on keeping the action cresting that the credibility of the narrative is often undermined."
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
Desperate Measures (1998)19%
/
 
"Wallows in karaoke performances, while spinning out a predictable variety of plots and subplots against the backdrop of ongoing road-movie settings."
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
Duets (2000)22%
/
 
"A loud, busy, apocalyptic extravaganza that's as relentless as it is preposterous."
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
End of Days (1999)12%
/

Eye of the Beholder (1999)10%
/
 
"Did they hit a home run? In terms of computer-generated monsters wreaking havoc, yes. In terms of believable characters and a convincing story, not quite."

Godzilla (1998)26%
/
 
"For all the movie's extravagances--and it must be admitted that Darius Khondji's cinematography is gloriously extravagant--it just isn't all that frightening."

In Dreams (1998)23%

Lost Souls (2000)7%

"Clever as it may be and scattered with zany comic touches, Me Myself I rarely manages to rise above its basic premise"
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
Me Myself I (1999)62%

Me, Myself & Irene (2000)46%

"Despite running only 81 minutes, Sherman's debut feels distended, perhaps because it flutters around from black comedy to Grand Guignol to character study, rarely touching down on any of the above."
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
Office Killer (1998)13%
/
 
"Winds up being a stylish soap opera more 'lit' than enlightening."
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
One Night Stand (1997)30%

"Perhaps as a short, Pi could have proved engaging, but stretched to feature length it becomes repetitive and unwieldy."
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
Pi (1997)83%
/
 
"This contrived tale of sexual misfits plays out as little more than an endlessly drab exercise in ennui."
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
Praise (1998)83%

"If an audience exists at all for Run Lola Run, it will likely be rabid video-game buffs with a passion for re-set."
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
Run Lola Run (1999)92%
/
 
"Seems to be caught between preaching to the converted and reinventing a complex real-life individual without fully exploring that person's humor, complexity and contradictions."
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
Steal This Movie (2000)54%
/
 
"Stigmata is just too long on bloody atmosphere and too bloody short on believability."
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
Stigmata (1999)20%

"First-time filmmaker Dunsky doesn't always know where to place his camera to maximize the edgy humor that lurks near the script's surface."
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
The Alarmist (1997)55%
/
 
"Seems trapped between theatre and cinema, with nobody around to chew its leg off."
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
The Big Kahuna (1999)73%

"More of a camp pop-culture tribute to the soap-opera-ish Tammy Faye than an incisive look at the evangelical world that she and other religious figures once played a lucrative role in."
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
The Eyes of Tammy Faye (2000)84%
/
 
"A good score can only do so much and, too often here, it is undercut by an overly sentimental story."

The Red Violin (1998)70%

This is Not an Exit: The Fictional World of Bret Easton Ellis (1999)20%
/
