A/K/A Tommy Chong |
|
"A very scary documentary illustrating the carte blanche accorded Big Brother by the Patriot Act" | |

3/4 |

The Adventures of Brer Rabbit (2005) |
|
"This overhaul of the original eliminates Uncle Remus as well as the other ethnically offensive aspects to yield a politically-correct adventure about a mischievous hare which can be safely shared with the children, and enjoyed by kids of every age." | |
Kam Williams | |

4/4 |

African American Lives (2006) |
|
"Narrated by Harvard Professor Henry Louis Gates, Jr., this four-part PBS series follows the extraordinary efforts of nine famous blacks to find their roots, including Whoopi Goldberg who learns that she's not really Jewish." | |

African American Lives 2 (2007) |
|
"Ironically, probably the series' most compelling moments revolve around Bliss Broyard, daughter of the late New York Times literary critic, Anatole Broyard, who talks about how she never knew she was part black until the time of her father's death." | |

After The Wedding (2007) |
|
"A paradoxical, if ultimately plausible portrait of a fractured family which deals with baby-daddy drama in a way which puts similar, relatively-flip Hollywood fare to shame." | |
Kam Williams | |

3/4 |
|
Al Franken: God Spoke (2006) |
|
"This uncritical bio-pic presents Al as more of an intellectual on a mission than a funnyman in search of laughs, leaving one to wonder whether the purpose here was to makeover Al into a political figure for his rumored run for the U.S. Senate." | |

Ali's Dozen (2007) |
|
"Film focuses on the pivotal round in 12 different fights which best help highlight Muhammad ali's brilliance inside the ring, where he exhibited a guile and grace unmatched either before or since." | |

American Cannibal - The Documentary (2006) |
|
"Not so much an examination of the tragic trajectory of an ill-fated reality-TV show but just the biggest hoax since The Blair Witch Project." | |

American Gangster (2007) |
|
"An irresistibly seductive celebration of a monster which will undoubtedly deliver the wrong message to many an impressionable young mind." | |

Another Gay Movie (2006) |
|
"Mostly likely to appeal to an audience that would enjoy seeing a typical teensploit where the script flips the sexual preferences." | |
Kam Williams | |
|

3.5/4 |
|
The Architect (2006) |
|
"What makes the movie satisfying is the fact that its ethnic tensions are never overtly exacerbated, but rather subtly illustrated simply by the comparison of the decadent malaise of the spoiled-rotten versus the neverending nightmare of the have-nots." | |
Kam Williams | |

Are We Done Yet? (2007) |
|
"Yeah, we're done." | |

2.5/4 |
|
The Astronaut Farmer (2007) |
|
"A barely believable flight of fancy that's fun the whole family, provided you're willing to buy its cartoon astrophysics and cops who can't figure out a way to prevent a loose cannon from catapulting himself skyward at a rate in excess of escape velocity." | |
Kam Williams | |

3.5/4 |
|
ATL (2006) |
|
"Be forewarned that despite this critic's stamp of approval, this flick does trade in misogyny, profanity, the N-word, violence and drug use. Notexactly appropriate for impressionable young minds, despite the kid-friendly PG-13 rating." | |

Attack of the 50 Foot Woman (1958) |

"The cheesiest sci-fi classic since The Boy with Green Hair." | |

August Rush (2007) |
|
"A fanciful fairytale blending elements of Oliver Twist, Ferris Bueller, Peter Pan and The School of Rock, and likely to entertain and enthrall preteens for a couple of hours." | |
