-
The Sixth Sense (1999)Publish Date: August 23, 1999"A delicate, emotionally attentive, but very scary ghost story."
-

Much Ado About Nothing (1993)
-
The Winslow Boy (1999)David Mamet has adapted and directed Terence Rattigan's 1946 play, which was based on a true story, with a fidelity so profound that one doesn't know whether to be amazed or depressed by it."
-
Desperately Seeking Susan (1985)"A few scenes are very funny, but the picture would have worked much better if Seidelman had thrown away half the dialogue and built some momentum."
-
Lift to the Scaffold (1958)"Moreau's nocturnal wanderings are made unbearably poignant by an exquisite Miles Davis jazz score that became famous in its own right."
-
Waking Life (2001)"For the battered American independent cinema, Linklater's movie is the highest form of life seen in the last couple of years"
-
The Deep End of the Ocean (1999)"Pfeiffer digs into the role and won't let go. The rest of the movie is conventionally earnest."
-
The Sum of All Fears (2002)"As an evocation of danger, the movie seems threatening yet is nowhere near serious or intelligent enough to satisfy our current sense of alarm."
-
Be Cool (2005)"Considered as a sequel, 'Be Cool' is not an insult, but it’s a lazy, rhythmless, and redundant piece of moviemaking"
-
Lonely Hearts (2006)"The story of Fernandez and Beck may be grotesque comedy, but Todd Robinson tells it straight, without flinching from its piteousness, horror, or banality"
