Are We There Yet? (2005)"This is not the plot of your typical Ice Cube movie. It does, however, combine the plots of at least three John Hughes movies."
-
Gone in 60 Seconds (2000)"Proves a theory first advanced in the movie 'Repo Man': The more you drive, the stupider you get"
-
Basic (2003)"Basically, it's a muddle"
-
She's Out of My League (2010)"Fortunately, the actors are so likable that these wincingly unfunny moments don't spoil the party."
-
Gridiron Gang (2006)"Great message, so-so movie"
-
Troy (2004)"When the film focuses on the Trojans, it's splendid. But when Troy attempts to sort out the competing agendas of the Greeks, it drags"
-
"Deliriously funny if instantly forgettable"
-
Stealing Harvard (2002)"While 'Stealing Harvard' may be a chucklehead comedy, Lee is oddly touching and funny. Mostly because, unlike Green, he's not aggressively trying to make us laugh"
-
Romance & Cigarettes (2005)"'Romance and Cigarettes' is lewd and it's lurid and looks to be a lost pop opera, but it has more vitality than anything else out there."
-
Inside Job (2010)"It is a damning indictment of the individuals and institutions who made money while customers lost their shirts"
-
Mother (1996)"Bravo to Brooks for conceiving 'Mother 'and for giving Reynolds a role that required her to do something more than merely effervesce. Here Reynolds bubbles, she boils, she exhibits a complex geology of human emotions."
-
Eragon (2006)"I wish Eragon's cinematography were crisper, the music less Wagnerian, and the acting more consistent. But this movie isn't for me. It's for my 10-year-old"
-
Blood Simple (1984)"It is an exploitation picture disguised as a hipster comedy."
-
The Last Waltz (1978)"One of the rare rock films that produces the effect of a live concert: After each number, the audience erupts into applause."
-
Exit Through the Gift Shop (2010)"A beguiling and subversively funny entertainment that considers art's worth from many angles, including that of guerrilla painters, gallerists, and seasoned collectors."
-
Grizzly Man (2005)"A Shakespearean character study that packs the sheer terror of 'The Blair Witch Project.'"
-
Deliver Us From Evil (2006)"Courageous, shattering and exceptional documentary."
