" Danquart chose to omit all maps, charts, graphics and identifying captions, a decision that severely restricts To the Limit's appeal for non-aficionados."

" Chow himself is extremely winning whenever he is on screen, but this is first and foremost a kids' film, not a vehicle for the one of the best comics currently working in movies."

Over Her Dead Body (2008)14%

" Offers scenic locations, some passable special effects, a couple of large-scale battles, and an exceptionally incongruous cast ill-served by feeble scripting and indifferent direction."

National Treasure 2 : Book of Secrets (2007)31%

" Sluggish, humorless and pointlessly graphic, it will appeal to only the most desperate genre junkie."
Posted Nov 20, 2007
 
Hitman (2007)15%

Illegal Tender (2007)17%
/
 
" Peculiar structural decisions result in a documentary that alternates between mildly informative and grossly voyeuristic."
Posted Aug 21, 2007
 
Manda Bala (2007)80%

" By far the worst film in the series, and marks career low points for just about everyone involved."
Posted Aug 9, 2007
 
Rush Hour 3 (2007)20%

Posted May 24, 2007
 
Golden Door (2007)70%
/
 
" Bana is unable to find any signs of life in his character, Barrymore hasn't looked this adrift in years, and even Duvall is reduced to grimacing like Snidely Whiplash."
Posted May 7, 2007
 
Lucky You (2007)28%

" Half of Next is a clever, unpredictable thriller... the other half is a sloppy, bloated adventure marred by cheesy special effects and some equally cheesy acting."

The Reaping (2007)8%

" An excuse for indifferently executed slapstick involving Ice Cube, who contributes little more than a series of snarls and scowls to the proceedings."
Posted Apr 4, 2007
 
Are We Done Yet? (2007)8%
/
 
" Meet the Robinsons frequently bogs down into endless exposition, with dialogue that is pleasant but rarely funny."
Posted Mar 31, 2007
 
Meet the Robinsons (2007)66%

Shadowboxer (2006)20%

Flyboys (2006)33%

" Director Richard Loncraine shows no affinity for the nuts and bolts of constructing thrillers, playing out the script's empty threats and chases at a lethargic pace."

Posted Mar 1, 2007
 
The Night Listener (2006)41%

" ... just another movie designed to cash in on the gullibility of ticket buyers."
Posted Mar 1, 2007
 
The Number 23 (2007)8%
/
 
" The funniest parts of the script, like its characters' casual acceptance of a comic-book reality, are so subdued that they can be missed entirely."
Posted Mar 1, 2007
 
My Super Ex-Girlfriend (2006)40%
/
 
" So little of real consequence is at stake that you'll have plenty of time to notice how the names on not one but two tombstones are misspelled."

The Matador (2005)75%

The Day of the Beast (1995)78%
/
 
" First-time director Stefan Fangmeier does a good job overseeing the look and pacing of the film, but often seems to neglect more humdrum details like plotting and dialogue."

Deck the Halls (2006)6%

Conversations with God (2006)9%

Posted Jul 19, 2006
 
Edmond (2006)46%

" The sight of Posey, Minnelli, and Graham fondling sexual aids and chattering about orgasms is meant to reduce you to helpless laughter, but it will more likely leave you wondering how many bad choices it takes to destroy a career."
Posted Jul 19, 2006
 
The Oh in Ohio (2006)22%
