    Overall, The Notebook is a surprisingly good film that manages to succeed where many other "chick flick" like romances fail.

    In the somewhat muted lead role, Huppert really is a marvel.
  1. It's such a dumb movie, it's hard to believe it wasn't an SNL sketch first.
  2. Where earlier Moore films showcased a fair amount humor, even when covering weighty topics, Fahrenheit – especially the latter half – gives us Moore at his most serious.
  3. It may not be great but you're guaranteed to feel great walking out the theater door.
  4. The message is clear, and powerfully told.

    Top it off with a cameo by the real-life Phil Kaufman, and you've got a rock'n'roll road movie like no other. Wherever he is, Gram should get a kick out of it.

    A consuming and stimulating work and a theoretical thriller, it is a film which could only be created by a remarkably skillful filmmaker.
  5. One of the most effective, intelligent, mature and romantic love stories to come across the screen recently is, of all things, a documentary.

    Before approaching the end of the film the seduction of the doctor is not that important because by that time the audience has already fallen under the spell.
  6. There's just something maddeningly upbeat about this film's shameless hokiness. Combine that with the film's colorful art and wardrobe designs, spiffy choreography, the joy of seeing some veteran faces on screen for the first time in a while, and a soundtrack that'll make even the dead tap their toes, and Swing simply makes for some serious jump-jivin' fun.
  7. Isn't going to win over the art house crowd, but you could do a lot worse for summer entertainment.
  8. The story and themes behind The Stepford Wives are way past their time. They’re products of the 1960s.

    Overall, Garfield's first movie might not be as amusing as the cartoon but it was still a lot of fun to watch.
  9. The cast playing these eccentric characters is magnificent...This is definitely one of the most unique comedies you’ll see all year.
  10. A well-intended but hopelessly ill-focused documentary which wants to be the "That's Entertainment!" for the New York theater but seems like a hodgepodge of anecdotes, factoids and moldy memories.
  11. Quirky, entertaining documentary.
  12. Eminently successful at portraying the former first lady's flaws because it allows her to describe them herself.
  13. If my moviegoing experience was magical in any way, it was only in that I once or twice nodded off for a spell.
  14. A meandering and disappointing documentary about one of Africa's most beloved yet elusive musical giants.

    Fascinating and beautiful film.
  15. Powerful, infuriating, and ultimately sobering. Make an effort to see it.
    • 71 Metascore

    Deadline contributes reason and passion to the ongoing debate about whether civilized nations should employ the ultimate punishment and how justly it is administered.
  16. A raw, brutal, hypnotic journey into the world of seven heroin addicts who barely survive on the streets of New York City. It is a film of great sadness and pain.
  17. The really good news is that the disaster money shots are some of the finest ever filmed.

    A lot better than one would expect. It's amusing, it's inspired and hey, it's a lot wittier than the last two "Scary Movies" combined. Though, like most lampoons, it runs out of steam about half way through.

    A heartfelt and incredibly resonant ode to his father's achievement, Mario's film relives the blood, sweat, and tears that went into the making of Melvin's pioneering effort.
  18. Bukowski is one of my all time favorite writers and now I have an all new respect for the man thanks to John Dullaghan’s phenomenal film. I’ll be breaking out “Post Office,” “Ham On Rye,” and “Notes of a Dirty Old Man” again very soon.

    Saved! is just a sweet and funny movie that starts off with bite but settles into an honest feeling of happiness and acceptance for all types of people and their choices.
  19. Because much of the dialogue exchanged between the brothers and some of Kyle’s auditory flashbacks allude to situations that aren’t clarified until over sixty minutes of the film have passed, there’s strong motivation to pay attention.
