3.5/4

/
3/4

2.5/4
 
" Halfway through, however, having sucked dry the undead action flick formula, Blade II mutates into a gross-out monster movie with effects that are more silly than scary."
Posted Mar 21, 2002
 
Blade 2 (2002)56%
/
1/4
 
" The question hanging over The Time Machine is not, as the main character suggests, 'what if?' but rather, 'How can you charge money for this?'"

" The movie's final third is a sloppy cobble-together of B-grade special effects and laughable plot twists that strain credulity."
Posted Jan 18, 2002
 
The Brotherhood of the Wolf (2002)72%
/
 
" As a spun-sugar, slightly screwball romantic comedy, it's a delicious 'portal' to an hour and change of escapism."
Posted Dec 25, 2001
 
Kate and Leopold (2001)48%
/
 
" A flawed and formulaic but watchable little fable about the pursuit of true love."

" While it seems cruel to kick a person when she's down, it would be inaccurate to call Carey's performance anything other than groan-inducing."
Posted Sep 26, 2001
 
Glitter (2001)6%

" You don't have to be a metalhead ... to give the funny, ultimately feel-good flick the headbanger's 'devil horns' gesture of approval."

Rock Star (2001)52%
/
 
" As calculating as the consumer marketing machine it villainizes."
Posted Apr 11, 2001
