Soldier (1998)

Publish Date: October 30, 2020
"Any cliche you can dream up for a futuristic action movie, any familiar big-budget epic you can think to rip off, 'Soldier' has gotten there first."

Entertainment Weekly
The Legend of Zorro (2005)

Publish Date: May 17, 2020
"A couple of fancy fight sequences allow the stars, and their stunt doubles, to demonstrate how dashing they still look with swords in hand."

Entertainment Weekly
Romeo Must Die (2000)

Publish Date: March 17, 2020
"Doesn't take advantage of its own possibilities, either as a hard-boiled gangland battle or as a soft-boiled, interracial Shakespearean love story"

Entertainment Weekly
American Splendor (2003)

Publish Date: March 17, 2020
"Just as the author, in his comic books, discovered an original way to honor the challenges of everyday life, so have Berman and Pulcini come up with an inventive new movie hybrid that is its own formal breakthrough."

Entertainment Weekly
Captain Corelli's Mandolin (2001)

Publish Date: March 17, 2020
"'Pearl Harbor' for the English Patient crowd — a movie that reduces history, as well as eros, to a postcard"

Entertainment Weekly
The Last Samurai (2003)

Publish Date: March 17, 2020
"[A] rousing, smoothly assembled historical fantasia (...) [Cruise's work] commands respect, in actors or in samurai."

Entertainment Weekly
Sweet November (2001)

Publish Date: March 17, 2020
"A love story with all the life-and-death intensity of a heat rash (...)

Entertainment Weekly
The New World (2005)

Publish Date: March 17, 2020
"We can add this magnificent (and magnificently flawed) specimen to a prized collection of Malick movies that explore what it means to be an American"

Entertainment Weekly
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002)

Publish Date: March 17, 2020
"It doesn’t fly, this ”Chamber” at least hovers nicely a few feet off the ground for good stretches of time"

Entertainment Weekly
About Schmidt (2002)

Publish Date: March 17, 2020
"The power of this great movie — part comedy, part tragedy, part satire, mostly masterpiece — is in the details (...) one of the best films of the year"

Entertainment Weekly
In the Bedroom (2001)

Publish Date: March 17, 2020
"Todd Field builds his movie with such confident vision that it’s hard to believe this is his feature directorial debut"

Entertainment Weekly
Frida (2002)

Publish Date: March 17, 2020
"A revolutionary life has rarely felt less edgy, or the biography of an iconoclast more bourgeois (...) Salma Hayek makes a reasonable, mildly spiced Kahlo"

Entertainment Weekly
The Piano Teacher (2001)

Publish Date: March 17, 2020
"Those who would follow Haneke on his creepy explorations in The Piano Teacher are rewarded by brutal, committed performances from Huppert and Magimel."

Entertainment Weekly
Trapped (2002)

Publish Date: March 17, 2020
"Directed by Luis Mandoki using every pot and pan in the kitchen, the movie is a negligible work of manipulation"

Entertainment Weekly
Little Women (1994)

Publish Date: December 23, 2019
"First, the ensemble work is exceptional (...) Second, 'Little Women' is unself-consciously beautiful in its matter-of-fact attention to detail. (...) And third, this old story is full of contemporary wisdom."

Entertainment Weekly
Babe (1995)

Publish Date: August 11, 2019
"Between the real animals and the impostors, the deft vocal cast (...), and the sophisticated touches of humor (...), this menagerie takes the bacon.

Entertainment Weekly
Bride of Chucky (1998)

Publish Date: October 30, 2018
"[It is] better left in the 1980s horror-franchise grave (...) [It] is teen horror for dummies."

Entertainment Weekly
56 Up - The Up Series (TV) (2012)

Publish Date: January 30, 2013
"The series’ accessibility and genius also lie in the invitation that long acquaintanceship isn’t necessary to fall under the 'Up' spell."

Entertainment Weekly
Anna Karenina (2012)

Publish Date: November 15, 2012
"In making the radical artistic choice to tell the story as if it were being enacted by players on a stage, Wright falls passionately in love with his own fanciful artifices"

Entertainment Weekly
The Loneliest Planet (2011)

Publish Date: October 24, 2012
"One of the year's most original and emotionally profound movies (...) Every scene shift contributes vital information about what it means to guide or be guided over foreign territory"
