    Let It Snow
    The highpoint of the film, acting-wise, comes from Bernadette Peters.

    Just Visiting
    It's a crude, visually ugly, and peculiarly over-plotted movie, but the blunt, pungent, physical shtick is often pretty funny.

    Dr. Dolittle 2
    It's a modest family comedy, probably fun for kids and reasonably cute, or at least not too insufferable, for most of the grownups who will take them.

    200 Cigarettes
    It's sweet, tart, brightly colored, insubstantial, and utterly lacking in nutritional value. It's also fun to consume, and harmless enough as long as it isn't your whole diet.

    Varsity Blues
    Originally, somebody may have wanted the film to be a serious exploration of the dark side of high school sports, but it ended up as just one more sports picture.

    Lakeboat
    Forster is the reason that even non-Mamet-heads might consider giving Lakeboat a shot. It's worth it just to see him in his long one-take exchange with Johnston about booze, but he's remarkable throughout.

    Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles
    It would be hard to imagine a less exciting movie. Still, inoffensiveness can sometimes lead to success, at least initially, for a family film.

    Pokémon 3: The Movie
    Expect to be perplexed.

    Scary Movie 2
    Most of it is incredibly, gleefully crude and tasteless, but it is also good-natured and harmless, and there's a pretty good chance you'll find yourself laughing.
    • 58 Metascore

    The Fast and the Furious
    The movie may be intellectually sophomoric, dramatically adolescent and morally vacuous, but it's good fun while it lasts.
    • 72 Metascore

    The Closet
    The director is in fine form with The Closet, an expertly acted divertissement that may well be headed for a Yank incarnation within the next few years.
