"The movie would probably be laughed out of the very locale in which it's set. It's the kind of movie that they've got rigged to play on an endless loop in hell." -- Film Written Magazine

The Shipping News (2001)56%
/
0/4
 
"Insipid "human drama" gives way to relentless brutality. Is this cinema? If it is, you can have it." -- Film Written Magazine

Posted Nov 30, 2001
 
Spy Game (2001)65%
/
0/4
 
"Cold-blooded, unpleasant, utterly ridiculous, and obsessed with (photogenic) death and destruction." -- Film Written Magazine

Swordfish (2001)26%

"[Director] Stephen Sommers has opened all valves and soaked the screen with monumental ugliness and excess, all of which is harmless enough, but also rather depressing." -- Film Written Magazine

Where the Heart Is (2000)36%

U-571 (2000)67%

Cypress Edge (1999)n/a
/
1/4
 
"I'm not sure if Stay Home is a message I care to invest a great deal of faith in, but it ties up the story neatly and wraps things up in less than ninety minutes." -- Film Written Magazine

The Others (2001)83%

Enemy at the Gates (2001)59%
/
1/4
 
"Even though the running time is only just over ninety minutes, it somehow seems a drag, and at its worst, a repititious bore." -- Film Written Magazine

Posted Mar 19, 2001
 
What Women Want (2000)53%
/
1/4
 
"The filmmakers show no love for 'Nosferatu,' or Murnau, or even the cinema itself. The filmmakers have contempt for these things, and contempt for you, too." -- Film Written Magazine
