1/5	"Works as a showcase for impressively realistic-looking special effects, a realism that fails to extend to the scurrying humans whose fates are meant to invoke pity and fear but instead inspire yawns and contempt." -- New York Times Posted Jan 18, 2008	Cloverfield (2008)	77%

1/5	The latest and lamest version of Invasion of the Body Snatchers might have been an accidental camp classic if its politics weren�t so abhorrent and the movie didn�t try to hide its ineptitude behind a veil of pomposity. -- New York Times Posted Aug 17, 2007	The Invasion (2007)	19%

1/5	An incompetent spin on the poor-little-rich-girl story, the film involves a lot of wardrobe changes and product placements, and a smidgen of intrigue and some chaste romance. -- New York Times Posted Aug 21, 2006	Material Girls (2006)	4%
1/5	A delectable fusion of New Age babble and luridly bad filmmaking based on the best-selling 1993 book by James Redfield. -- New York Times Posted Aug 10, 2006	The Celestine Prophecy (2006)	5%
1/5	Adapted from the manga of the same title, this 2003 action flick tracks the blood-spurting adventures of its title character, a young female assassin who wields a lethally mean sword. -- New York Times Posted Jul 20, 2006	Azumi (2006)	43%

1/5	Clocking in at 80 minutes, this glib, largely uninformative and poorly organized précis of the post-World War II art scene succeeds neither as history nor as art history. -- New York Times Posted Feb 1, 2006	Who Gets to Call it Art? (2006)	73%
1/5	"... cumbersome drama." -- New York Times Posted Jun 16, 2005	Heights (2005)	65%

1/5	"*It isn't just that Miss Congeniality 2* is nearly absent a single genuine laugh; it's that instead of a screenplay and a story we now have stereotypes and sketch comedy.*" -- New York Times* Posted Mar 24, 2005	Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous (2005)	14%
1/5	"*Despite Mr. Nakata's track record and the radiant presence of its star, Naomi Watts, The Ring Two* is a dud.*" -- New York Times* Posted Mar 17, 2005	The Ring Two (2005)	20%
1/5	"*The latest Hollywood movie to give comic books a bad name, Elektra* stars Jennifer Garner as a superheroine who dons fetish-wear the color of blood before laying waste to every man in sight.*" -- New York Times* Posted Jan 13, 2005	Elektra (2005)	9%

1/5	"*The screen version of the animated television series Fat Albert* opens with a glint of promise. From there, the movie, alas, just lies down and dies.*" -- New York Times* Posted Dec 23, 2004	Fat Albert (2004)	21%

1/5	"A pseudospiritual, mumbo-jumbo, science-fiction inflected mess." -- New York Times Posted Sep 23, 2004	The Forgotten (2004)	31%

1/5	"Maladroit exploitation flick." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Jan 22, 2004	The Butterfly Effect (2004)	34%
1/5	"The film attempts to affect an air of dispassionate objectivity, but generally comes across as an exercise in exploitation." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Jun 24, 2004	Union Square (2003)	50%

1/5	"Nearly as unwatchable as it is unpronounceable." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Jul 31, 2003	Gigli (2003)	6%
1/5	"These guys have dumbed down a comic book." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Jul 10, 2003	The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003)	16%
1/5	"Director Troy Miller doesn't just lack the comic juice to extend his and co-writer Robert Brener's sketchy ideas into a feature, he's not above selling out his characters for a cheap laugh or two." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Jun 12, 2003	Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd (2003)	10%

1/5	"Worth commenting on only for its shocking ineptitude." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Mar 20, 2003	View from the Top (2003)	14%
1/5	"*In Spun, the nightmare never ends for the pretty young Hollywood things like Mena Suvari and Brittany Murphy who play methamphetamine dress-up with pasted-on pimples and brushed-on bruises." -- Los Angeles Times* Posted Mar 20, 2003	Spun (2003)	36%
1/5	"No� isn't concerned with subverting the status quo. Indeed, what he really seems to want to do is make a Hollywood movie." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Mar 6, 2003	Irreversible (2003)	56%
1/5	"A fundamentally insipid bid at experimental narrative." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Apr 16, 2002	Hotel (2003)	36%
1/5	"Some writer dude, I think his name was, uh, Michael Zaidan, was supposed to have like written the screenplay or something, but, dude, the only thing that I ever saw that was written down were the zeroes on my paycheck." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Nov 29, 2002	Extreme Ops (2002)	6%
1/5	"Absent one original moment and bathed in de rigueur steel blue punctuated by sporadic bursts of flaming orange, the movie is notable only for its creative approach to Seagal's bulky gracelessness." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Nov 14, 2002	Half Past Dead (2002)	2%
1/5	"Ghost Ship is the sort of flimflam that would have filled eight paneled pages in the great horror comic book Tales From the Crypt or consumed about 30 minutes on the latter-day HBO spinoff." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Oct 24, 2002	Ghost Ship (2002)	13%
1/5	"Tykwer's surface flash isn't just a poor fit with Kieslowski's lyrical pessimism; it completely contradicts everything Kieslowski's work aspired to, including the condition of art." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Oct 4, 2002	Heaven (2002)	73%
1/5	"*Ripped from the pages of the See Dick Run, See Jane Stalk Him* handbook, the thrill-less thriller Swimfan is as dumb as it gets.*" -- Los Angeles Times* Posted Sep 5, 2002	Swimfan (2002)	15%
1/5	"It's a drag how Nettelbeck sees working women -- or at least this working woman -- for whom she shows little understanding." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Aug 22, 2002	Mostly Martha (2002)	91%
1/5	"Unfunny and lacking any sense of commitment to or affection for its characters, the Reginald Hudlin comedy relies on toilet humor, ethnic slurs." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Aug 22, 2002	Serving Sara (2002)	5%
1/5	"A movie that looks like a muddy second-generation Xerox and contains all the emotional and intellectual appeal of cold tea and soggy toast." -- Los Angeles Times Posted Jul 19, 2003	Langrishe, Go Down (1978)	70%
