" Watching Baruchel and Quaid is the payoff in Real Time. But the repetitive, occasionally banal script lets them down."
Posted Nov 7, 2008
 
Real Time (2008)n/a

1.5/4
 
" Zack and Miri isn't very funny. Laugh-out-loud bits here are as rare as real breasts in an adult film."

" For those who love sailing, Morning Light will confirm their passion and please them right down to their Top-Sider encased toes. For the rest of us, this sailors' tale just smacks of naval gazing."

" As they hit the road, the scenes play out like TV sitcom vignettes with little holding the centre together. We find out details about the characters lives, but never feel we know them."

" What was then snappy dialogue from meowing madams acting out a morality play on everything that stinks about haute society now flaccidly flaps, lost in translation from old world to new."

" The House Bunny may be what some boys like, but there are doubtless moviegoers out there of both sexes who would like to see Faris hop into some decent onscreen material."

" Adults used to animation that runs on two tracks -- the upfront stuff for the tykes and a witty subtext to entertain big people -- may grow bored with the kid-leaning sensibility of Fly Me to the Moon."

" Pretty much drives a stake into the heart of every loyal fan of the movies. And now he's out to stick it to those too young to know about Jar Jar Binks."

" Bottle Shock comes on too strong and sours once the cork is popped, despite a delightfully over-the-top showing by Alan Rickman."

" As often happens with politics, even as Swing Vote entertains, it leaves us feeling like we've been subjected to some slick manipulation and worse, left with promises unfulfilled."

" Has its wonky charms, but suffers from trying too hard to be quirky."

" Perhaps the other three lives were better."

The 4th Life (2008)n/a
/
1.5/4
 
" Saddled with the weight of an unfocused, cliché-ridden script, a tiresome voice-over narration that drones on and on, and acting by Rock that's as wooden as Pinocchio, I Think I Love My Wife staggers in predictable circles for 94 long minutes."

" Even for the chubbiest comic cat in captivity, Garfield's onscreen shtick is wearing a bit thin."

2/4
 
" The movie plods around, appears to pick up speed, but then falters. Worse, we never feel true sympathy for the lovers who are forced to risk all to meet in secret when fate and politics keep them apart."
Posted Jan 13, 2006
 
Tristan & Isolde (2006)32%
/
1.5/4
 
" The worthwhile bits are few and far between. In the rush to avoid exploiting the athletes, the filmmakers have stuck it to the audience instead. Not funny."

" By the time The Dark Hours starts to get good, it's more than midway into the movie."
