"It’s easy to keep blaming Ken Burns for this kind of softcore Civil War porn, but enough is enough: This is a vanity project of the most indulgent order."
Posted Jun 7, 2007
 
The Last Confederate: The Story of Robert Adams (2005)n/a
/
 
"Such artless inattention to the con man’s craft might be overlooked if any of the characters or performers had the personality to pull one over on us, the audience."
Posted Apr 26, 2007
 
Fakers (2004)38%
/
 
"This 'true account' of the Bell Witch haunting offers an encyclopedic rehash of spook films new and old, dressed out in murky period detail."
Posted May 4, 2006
 
An American Haunting (2006)12%
/
 
"A film riddled with missed opportunities for good clean scares."
Posted Oct 20, 2005
 
The Fog (2005)5%

"It’s the zippy chatter among the Serenity’s wised-up space pirates that gives the film most of its punch, but with only serviceable action sequences and largely cookie-cutter effects, you can still sense the void just outside."
Posted Sep 29, 2005
 
Serenity (2005)82%
/
 
"Prominently placed in Jaque’s bachelor pad is a poster for Down by Law, but it’s abundantly clear that Lozano and company have been re-watching Pulp Fiction for the last decade."
Posted Aug 25, 2005
 
Matando Cabos (2005)53%
/
 
"As a salvo in the culture wars, Dukes of Hazzard is a dud, and as an actual movie it doesn’t rate much higher."
Posted Aug 4, 2005
 
The Dukes of Hazzard (2005)14%
/
 
"While his characters wallow and his wasted cast founders in the shoals of Will De Los Santos and Creighton Vero’s script, Åkerlund apes the tics of his primary influences: Oliver Stone, Darren Aronofsky and the photography of David LaChapelle."
Posted Mar 19, 2003
 
Spun (2003)36%
/
 
"A one-way ticket to Palookaville."
Posted Feb 27, 2003
 
Poolhall Junkies (2003)35%
/
 
"It can't shake the impression of a video premiere stretched to big-screen size."
Posted Feb 12, 2003
 
Jungle Book 2 (2003)19%
/
 
"Despite the film's aspirations to soul healing, its uplift remains mechanical, like an escalator's."
Posted Jan 20, 2003
 
Dragonfly (2002)7%
/
 
"Pushes the Hollywood action movie to stratospheric new levels of incoherence."
Posted Jan 15, 2003
 
Rollerball (2002)4%
/
 
"Rather quickly, the film falls into a soothing formula of brotherly conflict and reconciliation."
Posted Dec 13, 2002
 
Skins (2002)60%

"Nemesis never feels true to itself, its energy never fully engaged."
Posted Dec 12, 2002
 
Star Trek: Nemesis (2002)36%
/
 
"Stinks from start to finish, like a wet burlap sack of gloom."
Posted Dec 5, 2002
 
They (2002)37%

"Vaughan brings such disregard to the film that its pedestrian on-court action might as well have been shot from the bleacher seats."
Posted Nov 18, 2002
 
Juwanna Mann (2002)9%
/
 
"Despite a few epic revelations, we never get a real sense of living, breathing dragons."
Posted Nov 18, 2002
 
Reign of Fire (2002)40%
/
 
"Thomas trudges through the film's action sequences with such obvious disinterest that when Wilson turns from a lackluster fireball to quip, 'Whoa, that was a big explosion,' you really know he's putting us on."
Posted Oct 31, 2002
 
I Spy (2002)16%
/
 
"An amusing scenario, until even Miike seems to lose his taste for the oddly sweet concoction and allows the film to drift aimlessly to a rainbow-hued finale."
Posted Oct 25, 2002
 
Happiness of the Katakuris (2001)65%
/
 
"Torem drifts into formula and his initially promising film goes unbearably soft."
Posted Oct 24, 2002
 
Looking Through Lillian (2002)60%
/
 
"While the film throws a solid pop punch, you could still swear you've seen it all before."
Posted Oct 24, 2002
 
The City of Lost Souls (2000)58%
/
 
"On top of a foundering performance, [Madonna's] denied her own athleticism by lighting that emphasizes every line and sag."
Posted Oct 10, 2002
 
Swept Away (2002)5%
/
 
"Guillen rarely gets beneath the surface of things. She lists ingredients, but never mixes and stirs."
Posted Oct 3, 2002
 
American Adobo (2002)30%
/
 
"[It has] a humanist touch that stands at odds with the film's wholesale demonizing of the scattered Soviet army."
Posted Oct 3, 2002
 
Ambush (1999)n/a
/
 
"Your taste for Jonah - A Veggie Tales Movie may well depend on your threshold for pop manifestations of the Holy Spirit."
Posted Oct 2, 2002
 
Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie (2002)65%
/
 
"The film lapses too often into sugary sentiment and withholds delivery on the pell-mell pyrotechnics its punchy style promises."
Posted Sep 26, 2002
 
Wasabi (2002)45%
/
 
"While much of the film's action ... comes live, as opposed to the digital mayhem of the game, Thai director Kaos (a.k.a. Wych Kaosayananda), making his inauspicious Hollywood debut, still can't breathe any life into it."
Posted Sep 19, 2002
 
Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever (2002)0%
/
 
"Why Crop Circles now, if not to ride the hype of M. Night Shyamalan's Signs to some quick cash? The movie's rambling, slapdash, repetitious nature suggests as much."
Posted Sep 17, 2002
 
Crop Circles: Quest for Truth (2002)63%
/
 
"It's supposed to be post-feminist breezy but ends up as tedious as the chatter of parrots raised on Oprah."
Posted Aug 29, 2002
 
Amy's O (2002)27%
/
 
"Dismally dull sci-fi comedy."
Posted Aug 22, 2002
 
The Adventures of Pluto Nash (2002)6%
/
 
"Jericho and Hester spend so much time on investigative idylls in the damp spring countryside that spy work starts to seem like a military garden party."
Posted Jun 1, 2002
 
Enigma (2002)73%
/
 
"The premise for this kegger comedy probably sounded brilliant four six-packs and a pitcher of margaritas in, but the film must have been written ... in the thrall of a vicious hangover."
Posted Jun 1, 2002
 
Sorority Boys (2002)13%
/
 
"The gore comes with brutal regularity, so that, despite Farmer and Isaac’s attempts to liven things up, the film still just wears you down."
Posted Jun 1, 2002
 
Jason X (2002)21%
/
 
"A very mechanical revenge fantasy that skirts every serious issue it raises along a slick, cynical trajectory."
Posted Jun 1, 2002
