The Eye (2002)"'The Eye' is a feast to behold, but it lacks substance and will leave most viewers wholly unsatisfied."
-
"Reliable, standard Disney animated fare, with enough creative energy and wit to entertain all ages."
-
Escaflowne: The Movie (2000)"Its ambitiousness and artistry should satisfy discriminating fans of the anime genre."
-
The Cockettes (2002)"It puts The Cockettes into social, political and popular cultural context and gives the documentary a moving resonance."
-
Promises (2001)"Beautifully crafted and brutally honest"
-
"Shallow though it may be, is a breakthrough"
-
My First Mister (2001)"Offers something rare for a modern movie: an uncynical depiction of the redemptive power of human relationships."
-
Like Mike (2002)"Doesn't win any points for originality. It does succeed by following a feel-good formula with a winning style"
-
Crush (2001)"A surprising and delightful romantic take on modern women."
-
Resident Evil (2002)"A video game cum movie that substitutes shrieking decibel levels for a coherent plot and any resemblance to originality"
-
Digimon: The Movie (2000)"What is particularly unappealing and troublesome about the feature is that it is a video game barely disguised as a movie."
-
Dungeons & Dragons (2000)A mildly entertaining but tepid extravaganza more suited to television than the big screen."
-
Swimming (2000)"Swimming is a rarity among modern movies: a coming-of-age tale without cliche or sentimentality. Bolstered by a luminous lead performance from Lauren Ambrose, Swimming explores adolescent angst with refreshing honesty and empathy."
-
The Weight of Water (2000)"Despite the deftness with which Bigelow handles the transitions, the modern story never attains the intrigue and tension of the period tale."
-
Cats & Dogs (2001)"The effects are so showy, and so relentless, that they call attention pretty quickly to the fact that there is not much else to Cats and Dogs"
-
Harrison's Flowers (2000)"A powerhouse of a film about modern journalism and war, with battle scenes that have the immediacy and impact of the famed opening sequence of 'Saving Private Ryan.'"
-
Harrison's Flowers (2000)A powerful portrait of modern journalism and the nobility -- and futility -- of chronicling modern war"
-
Ghost Ship (2002)"An adequate horror movie for the Halloween season, but it too easily sinks into haunted-house-film conventions"
-
The Art of War (2000)"Quickly falls into B-picture visual cliche, accompanied by leaden dialogue"
-
Storytelling (2001)"One of recent memory's most thoughtful films about art, ethics, and the cost of moral compromise."
