C-	"Unfortunately, in this amateurish, muddled film, the issues are poured out in a jumble of unexplained puzzle pieces that are never put together." Posted Jun 3, 2004	Klezmer on Fish Street (2004)	33%
A	"Roar: Lions of the Kalahari has a plot worthy of a Shakespearean tragedy and the epic sweep of a David Lean film, but these lions are regally real." Posted May 19, 2004	Roar: Lions of the Kalahari ()	93%

B+	"Although the plot is convoluted with moments that are too over-the-top, and not all the cameos score, you'll be glad the Looney Tunes gang is back with their acerbic wit and impeccable comic timing intact." Posted Nov 13, 2003	Looney Tunes - Back in Action (2003)	57%
D-	"*Although a graduate of the Animal House* school of tasteless, sophomoric humor, Old School gets docked many points due to its sloppy script and lame direction.*" Posted Feb 20, 2003*	Old School (2003)	59%
