    13 Going on 30
    The film lacks the emotional resonance that made "Big" such a sentimental favorite with audiences of all ages.

    We Are Marshall
    There are football movies, and then there's this 800-pound gorilla of a gridiron weepie, which should be penalized for roughing the viewer.
    • 57 Metascore

    Amen.
    Too bloodless to satisfy except as a political exercise.

    American Dreamz
    Maybe America will prove me wrong by voting, but I felt like you were holding back until the end.

    The Quiet
    Perhaps future generations of film scholars will embrace The Quiet as a B-movie that problematizes the oppressive gaze, but for now, it's a misfire.

    Haiku Tunnel
    No doubt this effort will find its fans, as it should, but there's a lot of lost potential.

    Duplex
    Were it allowed to be dark, Duplex would probably be more interesting, possibly even with cult appeal. Call it a fixer-upper with potential.

    In My Country
    There is great material here and ample food for thought, but the presentation is lacking.

    Latter Days
    The end of the film edges toward camp, and the sudden arrival of surreal dream sequences threatens to push it over the side. The movie is more sophisticated when it’s not trying to be complex.

    Surf's Up
    There's nothing terribly wrong with Surf's Up, except maybe the part where one character calls another a "dirty trash can full of poop." But the movie isn't terribly robust, either.

    Bartleby
    Comes across as stiff and uneven.
    • 46 Metascore

    The Gospel
    Tamyra, Tamyra, Tamyra. I didn't recognize you at first!
    • 38 Metascore

    The Mostly Unfabulous Social Life of Ethan Green
    There's just not enough real heart to go along with the cutesiness.

    Mr. Bean's Vacation
    If you like the character – his tooty yellow Mini, his busily working beetlebrows, his tendency to point and grunt and eat shellfish whole – then you will be rewarded with 90 minutes of such.

    Gigantic (A Tale of Two Johns)
    Will likely test the patience of all but the most devoted fans.
    • 56 Metascore

    Dark Blue World
    The film is more of an old-school wartime yarn, crackling with the expected camaraderie among the hardscrabble volunteers.
    • 55 Metascore

    Punks
    Never mind the fact that romantic comedies about gay African-American and Latino men aren't exactly plentiful, let alone ones this good-natured.

    Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed
    This is not a family movie; the kids will be bored by it. This is a guilty pleasure for thirtysomething stoners with ironic dispositions and large nacho platters.

    America's Heart and Soul
    The real shame in the storytelling is that the people in this film are interesting and inspiring enough to warrant a real film about them.

    Under the Tuscan Sun
    My cynical half hated it, despite the presence of Lane, who is so magnetic that she could prance around the countryside in the absence of plot and still be compelling somehow.

    Palindromes
    You could call this film repugnant and abrasive, and Solondz would probably agree.
    • 51 Metascore

    Naked in Ashes
    Plenty thought-provoking, but it's not much of a movie and ultimately inspires curiosity rather than passion.
    • 42 Metascore

    The Family Man
    A holiday film Joe Lieberman could love, unembarrassed by its wholesome, sugary pro-family message.
    • 57 Metascore

    Coach Carter
    The script is really the heart of the problem.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 40 Marrit Ingman
    Freedom Writers
    The movie itself offers few real answers to the problems teachers face.
    • 44 Metascore
    • 40 Marrit Ingman
    Kate & Leopold
    There's nothing terribly wrong with Kate & Leopold -- it's just an awfully conventional upmarket romantic comedy.
    • 34 Metascore

    The Messengers
    This spook story is a surprisingly mediocre Hollywood debut for Hong Kong's Pang brothers.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 40 Marrit Ingman
    The Princess Diaries
    Critic-proof moviemaking, a candy pink wish-fulfillment fantasy prominently peppered with pubescent pop platters.
    • 33 Metascore
    • 40 Marrit Ingman
    House of D
    Here's an interesting surprise: Dour, dry Duchovny's directorial debut is more weepy than creepy.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 40 Marrit Ingman
    Facing Windows
    Stuck somewhere between melodrama and the flat tone of an "issues"-oriented television miniseries.
