68/100
 
"The two-disc 'special edition' DVD packs an impressive number of extras."
Posted Sep 18, 2007
 
Troy (2004)55%
/
78/100
 
"The principal extra on that disc is a pair of full-length audio commentaries."
Posted May 7, 2007
 
Jarhead (2005)60%
/
82/100
 
"Here's an example of an excellent DVD, even though it has only a modest number of extra features."
Posted Apr 25, 2007
 
Syriana (2005)74%
/
82/100
 
"Takes the risk of losing its audience by interweaving four different storylines."
Posted Dec 11, 2005
 
Syriana (2005)74%
/
71/100
 
"Predictably, since a two-disc special edition DVD version was released at the same time as the regular edition, the latter suffers from a noticeable lack of special features."
Posted Nov 10, 2005
 
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005)83%
/
71/100
 
"Even if it’s not wholly faithful, this incarnation does the book justice and certainly outshines the 1971 musical."
Posted Nov 8, 2005
 
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005)83%
/
78/100
 
"Jake Gyllenhaal turns in a solid performance."
Posted Nov 6, 2005
 
Jarhead (2005)60%
/
77/100
 
"I like the characters and the story but find that the film just doesn’t go the distance in some areas."
Posted Jul 29, 2005
 
Must Love Dogs (2005)35%
/
76/100
 
"A riveting piece of suspense and action, and one of the strongest horror films in recent memory."
Posted Feb 17, 2005
 
Constantine (2005)45%
/
45/100
 
"There is a reason to fear being alone in the dark: it’s this movie."
Posted Jan 28, 2005
 
Alone in the Dark (2005)1%
/
77/100
 
"Imelda Staunton does an excellent job in the title role."
Posted Nov 9, 2004
 
Vera Drake (2004)92%
/
71/100
 
"While there are laughs and inspired moments, the comedic aspect almost disappears at the height of the movie, in favour of the goriest events I can remember in recent cinema."
Posted Sep 23, 2004
 
Shaun of the Dead (2004)91%
/
52/100
 
"Not ingenious by any stretch – the dialogue has moments of being undercooked and times where it’s pared too close to the bone to leave more room for action."
Posted Sep 10, 2004
 
Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004)21%
/
68/100
 
"As memorable and fulfilling as a good bag of movie popcorn."
Posted May 14, 2004
 
Troy (2004)55%
/
67/100
 
"The further you are from being a teenage girl, the less likely this movie is going to appeal to you."
Posted May 7, 2004
 
New York Minute (2004)12%
/
73/100
 
"An over-long exercise in resolution, denouement and style."
Posted Apr 16, 2004
 
Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004)85%
/
52/100
 
"The only thing to keep this effort from sinking completely, like a snitch with cement shoes, is Kevin Pollack’s broad portrayal."
Posted Apr 8, 2004
 
The Whole Ten Yards (2004)5%
/
84/100
 
"Given the era of this movie, it was a controversial topic and a theme that Kramer handles courageously. He does a good job of showcasing Poitier and Curtis in their prime and the film's Oscar-winning cinematography is crisp and outstanding."

This Is My Father (1999)75%

61/100
 
"Its lack of punch and its simmering sexuality make it ideal for the pre-teen girl squad set; it’s lightweight fare even by musical standards."
Posted Feb 26, 2004
 
Havana Nights (2004)23%

Premonition (1999)n/a
/
58/100
 
"Mediocre Star Trek and average television. Short of an obsessed need for an unbroken record of the series on DVD, season two is easy to avoid."
Posted Nov 29, 2003
 
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - The Complete Second Season (1993-1994)n/a
/
64/100
 
"Drunk with success, it seemed like the producers forgot something important by season five: good stories make for a good series."
Posted Nov 29, 2003
 
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Season 5 (1991-92)n/a
/
63/100
 
"The first 20-minutes is an undefined mish-mash of recap, followed by some action that pales in comparison with the previous films."

"At the foundation of this movie is a great script."

The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming (1966)83%

43/100
 
"The movie is also dotted with some battle sequences of nearly epic proportions, but they can’t make up for Cleopatra’s shortcomings in plot and acting."

"Remove the distractions and leaden moments and you probably have just enough humour left to make a 30-minute Tuesday night sitcom."

"If you were left uneasy by nannies and obstetricians after 'The Hand That Rocks The Cradle,' this movie will make you wonder what happens after you hand over your film, and you'll now be leery of the vest-wearing automatons at your local big box retailer."

"While this film has an 'A' list cast and some strong supporting players, the tale -- like its central figure, Vivi -- is just a little bit hard to love."
