  1. It’s Cangialosi’s writing and direction that result in a watered-down, emotionally manipulative experience.

    I never really expected something so utterly lame-brained. Though, the film is not as awful as I've heard, it's quite possibly the laziest script I've ever seen.
  2. When is a horror movie not a horror movie? When it’s a strained, by-the-numbers production that limps to an unlikely conclusion like Godsend.
  3. To be sure, The Love Guru is incredibly funny. Side-splitting laughter only stops when the movie does, so don't expect it to linger all the way to the parking lot.

    I recommend Die In a Gunfight to any film fan that wants to see a different take on the mob love story. I think the romance takes a back seat to the violence when I think an equal footing would have made the film so much better.
  4. The cast is genuine in their emotions, the film depicts them that way, and the camera doesn’t feel compelled to go hand-held crazy--which is refreshing.

    Sure it’s brainless fun, but Formula 51 is a trip well worth taking.
  5. Gelfer may have missed the mark with this one, but she displays enough technical skill and empathy for her characters to deserve another shot.

    While it sounds interesting on paper, the follow through is less than entertaining... unless you like unintentional humor.
  6. If you’re looking for a compelling horror flick, don’t waste your time with Darkness Falls.
  7. Half Past Dead would’ve been a bad film without Seagal anyways, but he fails long before any of the other parts do.

    As a film, Reagan is about as perfect a biopic as you will get. The story flows quickly and feels cinematic for a man whose life plays out like a movie.

    Ultimately, Vanquish falls into the cliché of typical action films, where the focus is on the action, and the story is a way to string the action together

    It's such an insanely fun ride that most of its flaws are forgivable.
  8. Ghastly.
  9. If you want laughs, just about every other comedy playing right now is good for one giggle, which is more than you'll get here. Just don't waste your time or money on Out Cold.
  10. An abysmal failure.
  11. It’s a laughably bad, generic, and bloodless PG-13 waste of two hours, and that’s everything I fantasized it wouldn’t end up being.

    It's hard to remain interested in everyone when they're continually shuffled around. Half-baked storylines abound.
  12. It lacks humor. Unlike "Scream", this film is more of a horror-drama, with everybody taking themselves way too seriously.
  13. 8MM
    The biggest thing wrong with this mess is its whole attitude. The film tries to condemn all these shocking things, but if you're not shocked, just wait a couple of minutes and they'll try again.
  14. Godawful mess.
  15. When all is said and done, then, the only thing this juvenile and shameless "Star Wars" knock-off does is whet your appetite for the real deal.
  16. This is one of those "Crash"-style pictures with interwoven narrative strands. The problem here is that most of the strands wind up little more than loose ends.

    This is easily the smallest-scale of the sequels, and it has the feeling of a massively shrunken budget.
  17. The primary problem with “Rabbit Test” was that it was based on a hoary one-joke concept – in this case, a man becomes pregnant. But Rivers had no clue how to take the concept and expand it into a flowing, coherent comedy script.
  18. Predictable and tiresome.
  19. Left me feeling empty inside. There’s no warmth and character from the original Dr. Seuss book, and there’s no substance or soul in the story elements.
  20. The plot itself is a disappointingly gory concatenation of two recently forgettable sci-fi thrillers; "Hardware" and "Event Horizon."
  21. If you have nothing more stimulating to do on a Friday night, Underclassman could provide the entertainment--not enlightenment--you seek.
