"The only real fun is watching old pros like Arkin and Stamp sell material that doesn’t deserve the love they give it. There’s nothing terribly wrong here, but there’s nothing terribly right, either. Missed it by that much" -- Time Out New York

"It’s frankly exhausting, and like that bag of Skittles, it won’t really satisfy your hunger. But look at all those bright, shiny colors." -- Time Out New York

2/6
 
"Writer-director Eva Aridjis has a flat style that’s frankly numbing; Wood tries valiantly, but he and Donowho are both dragged down by the script." -- Time Out New York

The Favor (2008)39%

2/6
 
"A police thriller that’s desperate to be gritty, Street Kings boasts a protagonist so dumb it takes him an hour of screen time to realize a 'plot twist' we assumed was a given." -- Time Out New York

"After the shrewd, in-depth analysis of No Direction Home, we expect more from Scorsese than two hours of perfectly framed close-ups of Mick." -- Time Out New York

Shine a Light (2008)86%

3/6
 
"While Phillippe does a creditable job and Cornish is suitably torn by her divided loyalties to two men, Tatum and especially Gordon-Levitt are utterly wasted, used like extras when either of their stories seems interesting enough for a film of its own." -- Time Out New York

"The eternal battle between the hot-but-arrogant blond and the hot-and-likable brunet continues on new turf in the almost gleefully bad Never Back Down." -- Time Out New York

"In legal terms, Mad Money isn’t a felony; it’s more like a misdemeanor." -- Time Out New York

"Individual sequences generate an eerie tension that's always deflated, creating a jarring stop-and-go rhythm, and the atmospheric trickery never strays beyond a lot of smoke and mirrors." -- Chicago Reader

Signs (2002)74%

"In their quest for the youth market, Hollywood hacks often dress up their old script ideas in baggy pants and backward baseball caps, but I hope American kids aren't dumb enough to swallow this awful extreme-sports adventure." -- Chicago Reader

"I expected this to be much funnier: Latifah coasts on her charm, and Fallon seems incapable of playing an actual character." -- Chicago Reader

"Every joke is stretched to the breaking point, and no one seems to be having any fun." -- Chicago Reader

The Whole Ten Yards (2004)5%

"Nothing's quite so painful as failed comedy, and this atrocity is equivalent to a compound fracture." -- Chicago Reader

"Romantic comedy ought to have some romance and laughs, but this extraordinarily flat effort has neither." -- Chicago Reader

"Director Zak Tucker is a bit too fond of jump cuts as signifiers of edginess. Still, when the material doesn't get in the way he's pretty good at getting across the emotional content." -- Chicago Reader
