Hacks (TV Series) (2021)
Publish Date: April 30, 2024
"[3rd Season Review]: [It] has matured into a deeper, kinder exploration of friendship and creativity while mostly retaining its hilarious edge."

Carla Meyer
Steel (1997)
Publish Date: June 15, 2022
"'Steel' plays like a Saturday morning cartoon -- overdone stunts and hokey chase sequences with the hero on a motorcycle"

Peter Stack
The Banger Sisters (2002)
Publish Date: September 19, 2021
"What The Banger Sisters offers in place of an eloquent statement is the charm of two actresses at the top of their game in flashy roles and a smart script that's decidedly more coarse than sentimental"

Mick LaSalle
Hackers (1995)
Publish Date: September 14, 2021
"Want a believable plot or acting? Forget it. But if you just want knockout images, unabashed eye candy and a riveting look at a complex world (...) "Hackers'' is one of the most intriguing movies of the year."

Peter Stack
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)
Publish Date: August 22, 2021
"At some point during one of the best car chase scenes in San Francisco movie history, "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings" makes at least one thing gloriously clear: Today, you will be getting your money's worth at the movies.

Peter Hartlaub
Six Minutes to Midnight (2020)
Publish Date: March 23, 2021
"[It] is entertaining enough if a little underwhelming. It’s handsomely and nostalgically shot (...) But the film is also rather rushed and seems disinterested in the details of its own story."

Lindsey Bahr
Birth (2004)
Publish Date: October 28, 2020
"A mystical thriller, begins like a penetrating exploration of love, grief and suffering and ends looking like a highbrow version of 'Bride of Chucky'"

Mick LaSalle
The Ring (2002)
Publish Date: October 17, 2020
"'The Ring' is so good it's scary"

C.W. Nevius
A Scanner Darkly (2006)
Publish Date: July 6, 2020
"The visual style and lethargic pace can be frustrating -- at least if you're sober -- but the animated tragedy is still a succes"

Peter Hartlaub
Stealing Beauty (1996)
Publish Date: June 20, 2020
"'Stealing Beauty' maintains interest beyond the absurdity of Tyler's presence"

Mick LaSalle
Crimson Tide (1995)
Publish Date: May 11, 2020
"Crimson Tide has everything you could want from an action thriller and a few other things you usually can't hope to expect"

Mick LaSalle
The Ladykillers (2004)
Publish Date: April 25, 2020
"Though the Coens' creative invention is evident (...) the results are lackluster, without unity of purpose or inspiration"

Mick LaSalle
Romeo Must Die (2000)
Publish Date: March 21, 2020
"As long as the Chinese martial arts star is in action, 'Romeo Must Die' is an eyeful"

Bob Graham
Adaptation (2002)
Publish Date: December 19, 2019
"The movie is better at the beginning, when the novelty is still fresh (...) 'Adaptation' was an idea worth following, but it leads to a dead end."

Mick LaSalle
The Queen (2006)
Publish Date: October 12, 2019
"An absolute delight, combining the cheap thrills of a biopic with the gentler, but more lasting, pleasures of a brilliant character study"

Mick LaSalle
The Day After Tomorrow (2004)
Publish Date: May 27, 2019
"The spectacle, which is colossal and at times staggering to behold, begins within two minutes of the fade-in and keeps coming until the finish. I thought I'd seen it all. I hadn't."

Mick LaSalle
The Mummy (1999)
Publish Date: May 6, 2019
"[It] digs up both laughs and chills from timeworn material."

Bob Graham
Escape Room (2019)
Publish Date: January 2, 2019
"It's pretty good, which might sound like faint praise, but for a movie like this, pretty good is the brass ring (…) Rating: **½ (out of 4)"

Mick LaSalle
The Grinch (2018)
Publish Date: November 6, 2018
"[It] is the equivalent of your third or fourth favorite present on any given holiday. It will entertain a few children in the moment, satisfy a few adults who are barely paying attention, then quickly be forgotten."

Peter Hartlaub
Upgrade (2018)
Publish Date: May 29, 2018
"'Upgrade' has flaws in pacing and execution; and the vision of the future always seems about 45 percent complete. But there’s a renegade spirit to the film"
