2/4	" The busyness of the story, filled with conventional crime-plot scams and devices, only further exposes the narrative's thinness." Posted Jun 2, 2005	Milwaukee, Minnesota (2005)	39%
1.5/4	" *In this version of Assault on Precinct 13, the mix of one-dimensional characters and high-tech shootouts make the formula seem especially tired." Posted Jan 18, 2005*	Assault on Precinct 13 (2005)	61%
3/4	" *Think of a politicized version of the MTV show Punk'd* and you're on your way to getting the idea of The Yes Men.*" Posted Nov 11, 2004*	The Yes Men (2004)	85%
2/4	" *The story, setting and colorful cast should help make Head in the Clouds* a winner, but the film undercuts itself repeatedly by being too heavy-handed.*" Posted Oct 14, 2004*	Head in the Clouds (2004)	15%
2.5/4	" You could classify the film as self-help drama, with the line between sermon and drama intentionally obscured." Posted Sep 30, 2004	Woman, Thou Art Loosed (2004)	51%
2/4	" *An episode of NYPD Blue* devolved into an underwhelming X-Files episode.*" Posted Sep 23, 2004*	The Forgotten (2004)	31%
2.5/4	" Matlin's dramatizations are intentionally heavy-handed... Meanwhile, many of the dozen-plus panelists grossly over-ponder the many scientific observations made." Posted Sep 23, 2004	What the Bleep Do We Know? (2004)	34%
2.5/4	" Mac makes the most of the set-up." Posted Sep 16, 2004	Mr. 3000 (2004)	56%
3/4	" Flawed but captivating." Posted Aug 5, 2004	Collateral (2004)	86%

3/4	" *Combines a classic movie-Western setting and narrative with a Heart of Darkness-like morality play." Posted May 13, 2004*	The Tracker (2002)	88%
1.5/4	" *There oughta be a law - or at least a code of honor -- among Hollywood screenwriters from pushing forth lame hard-genre stories like Laws of Attraction." Posted Apr 29, 2004*	Laws of Attraction (2004)	19%
2/4	" For the most part, the road scenes drag on too long and get the movie sidetracked en route to the movie's modest 'family always comes first' message." Posted Apr 7, 2004	Johnson Family Vacation (2004)	6%
2.5/4	" Keeps you laughing or winking enough to keep from thinking about the thin story." Posted Mar 4, 2004	Starsky & Hutch (2004)	63%
2/4	" A stylish but clumsy crime psychodrama." Posted Feb 26, 2004	Twisted (2004)	2%
2.5/4	" The high-velocity comic additions provided by Latifah and the flashbacks relating to Eddie's youth are enough to make this sequel one more sharp cut." Posted Feb 6, 2004	Barbershop 2: Back in Business (2004)	69%
2/4	" Only slightly successful in living up to the material." Posted Jan 29, 2004	The Big Bounce (2004)	16%
2.5/4	" *Die-hard Something About Mary* fans may feel that the brothers have gone soft with age and profit. But Stuck on You strikes the right balance of shocking send-up and inspirational cheer.*" Posted Dec 11, 2003*	Stuck on You (2003)	61%
2.5/4	" It's the balance of ethnic humor, melodrama and simple charms that make Mambo Italiano, while not something too special, a solid choice for those who enjoy Greek Wedding and its other recent spinoffs." Posted Oct 16, 2003	Mambo Italiano (2003)	32%
2.5/4	" Harkens to a time when political posturing attended to stakes that were real." Posted Oct 3, 2003	The Weather Underground (2003)	91%

2.5/4	" What the film lacks in plot and detailed story development it makes up for in glib dialogue and the characters' self-reflection." Posted Sep 12, 2003	Matchstick Men (2003)	82%
2.5/4	" How much you end up liking the film probably relates to how much you sympathize with Dylan or Dylan-like characters." Posted Sep 11, 2003	Masked and Anonymous (2003)	25%

2/4	" The effectiveness of The Safety of Objects and all such 'burb-angst weepies comes down to how far viewers will go toward feeling empathetic, or even sympathetic, rather than resentful toward such self-absorbed and self-loathing characters." Posted Apr 3, 2003	The Safety of Objects (2003)	49%
2/4	" If Petroni wanted to leave viewers with a mixed interpretation, he succeeded." Posted Mar 28, 2003	Till Human Voices Wake Us (2003)	24%
2/4	" None of this is terribly believable, of course, but it passes as cinematic setup for Rock's best stand-up talent: socially pinpointed humor and outrage." Posted Mar 28, 2003	Head of State (2003)	30%
2.5/4	" The movie's relatively simple plot and uncomplicated morality play well with the affable cast." Posted Mar 14, 2003	A Wedding for Bella (2001)	55%

2/4	" The Recruit epitomizes the phrase 'genre filler.'" Posted Jan 30, 2003	The Recruit (2003)	43%
3.5/4	" Artful, effective and socially redeeming stuff." Posted Jan 30, 2003	The Believer (2002)	81%
3/4	" A well-executed link between the abyss separating doom from freedom." Posted Jan 9, 2003	25th Hour (2002)	77%
3/4	" The documentary gains its edge and its substance by allowing figures on both sides of the debate to present their claims." Posted Jan 9, 2003	The Trials of Henry Kissinger (2002)	95%
3/4	" This time out, [Sade] is an unsettlingly familiar figure -- in turns loyal and deceitful, responsible and reckless, idealistically selfless and coldly self-interested." Posted Dec 19, 2002	Sade (2002)	67%
2.5/4	" It's hard to be certain without the benefit of detailed cultural context, but one gets the hunch that Carrera himself isn't all that clear about where he draws the line between the dramatic and parodic." Posted Dec 13, 2002	The Crime of Padre Amaro (2002)	62%
3/4	" *Director Charles Stone III applies more detail to the film's music than to the story line; what's best about Drumline* is its energy.*" Posted Dec 13, 2002*	Drumline (2002)	79%
2.5/4	" *If you can look past the leaps in logic and take it in as a morality tale about the consequences of unprincipled affections, then Elysian Fields* can offer its share of blissful moments.*" Posted Nov 29, 2002*	The Man from Elysian Fields (2002)	51%
2.5/4	" An irreverent dark comedy whose style outpaces its substance." Posted Oct 17, 2002	Formula 51 (2002)	26%
2/4	" Chan's stunts are limited and so embellished by editing that there's really not much of a sense of action or even action-comedy." Posted Sep 26, 2002	The Tuxedo (2002)	22%
2.5/4	" Smith examines the intimate, unguarded moments of folks who live in unusual homes -- which pop up in nearly every corner of the country." Posted Sep 26, 2002	Home Movie (2002)	87%
3/4	" Manages to offer a heartening lesson about communal triumph over personal gain, while shearing away all the gloss, dreck and dry ends that normally comes with so blunt a message." Posted Sep 12, 2002	Barbershop (2002)	83%
2.5/4	" *Even with its over-the-top spirit, The Independent's sense of spoof quickly goes flat." Posted Mar 1, 2002*	The Independent (2001)	60%
1.5/4	" Its semi-serious story, weighed against its cartoonishly violent game scenes, pull viewers toward conflicting but mutually unfulfilling peak moments." Posted Feb 8, 2002	Rollerball (2002)	4%
	" A relative letdown." Posted Feb 7, 2002	Collateral Damage (2002)	18%
	" The film's overall mood and focus is interesting but constantly unfulfilling." Posted Feb 1, 2002	Birthday Girl (2002)	57%
	" Viewers learn that these salty guys have salty imaginations and that Mamet's a master at capturing their thoughts in discursive detail." Posted Jan 4, 2002	Lakeboat (2001)	83%
	" The psychobabble never reaches Allen-esque levels; an overriding innocence and optimism corrals the dialogue and redeems even the older, more complicated psyches in the ensemble." Posted Nov 30, 2001	Sidewalks of New York (2001)	56%
