-
The Kite Runner (2007)"'The Kite Runner' is earnest and sentimental and formulaic and obvious. Watching it, I could understand the fuss over Khaled Hosseini's bestselling novel, but the film didn't make me want to read it."
-
Identity (2003)"The movie is polished, well-acted and atmospheric, but still pure formula, and not very scary, either"
-
Vacancy (2007)"Succeeds where so many other recent horror pictures have failed: It consistently scares you silly."
-
Land of the Lost (2009)"The whole thing feels at least three summers too stale."
-
Mesrine: Killer Instinct (2008)"It captures the rush of crime as a way of life for a man who did and took whatever he wanted"
-
The Brothers Grimm (2005)"The Brothers Grimm gives you plenty to look at, but it's not much to see"
-
Teaching Mrs. Tingle (1999)"A spectacularly mediocre movie."
-
S.W.A.T. (2003)"A compendium of missed opportunities, uninspired action and clichés so tired, you wish the screenwriters had called 911, too"
-
Mala noche (Bad Night) (1985)"Even at the start of his career, Van Sant has always been an artist who has savored the bittersweet pleasure of sadness and pain."
-
Capricorn One (1978)"An enjoyably preposterous thriller"
-
The Final Cut (2004)"Taxes the patience of even the most willing viewer with its sheer nonsense: It's distractingly illogical."
-
Open Hearts (2002)"It is as emotionally raw and wrenching as life itself."
-
Center Stage (2000)"Comes off as an episode of 'Beverly Hills, 90210' where, instead of spoiled rich kids, the characters are all ballet stars in the making."
-
Shine a Light (2008)"'Shine a Light' provides the clearest and most intimate viewing experience of the band to date. It is also a happy circumstance that the group, now in their mid-60s, have rarely sounded tighter."
-
Winged Migration (2001)"Leaves you in a state of stunned, exhilarated awe, both for what it shows and how it shows it."
-
Push (2009)"A curiously inert and talky action picture about good-looking mutants on the run from bad (but equally good-looking) ones"
-
The Cutting Edge (1992)"The dialogue is straight from the school of clever quips and snappy comebacks, and the romantic plotline has been done so many times before, it's beyond cliched"
-
Novocaine (2001)"A funny and constantly surprising exercise in comic tension."
-
Infamous (2006)"McGrath makes literal what the other movie only hinted at -- that Perry falls in love with Capote -- turning the relationship between author and subject into something far less complicated and more mundane."
