  1. One terrible sub-plot away from being a legitimately good movie.
  2. Doesn't have the courage or inclination to go inside of Dick's ideas, or offer any kind of structured or detailed approach to his thinking or writing.
  3. This lightweight concoction can't justify a trip out to the multiplex, unless you're a girl between the ages of 12 and 17, but it does provide a launching pad for a group of attractive people.
  4. Charlize Theron has charm and skill, but no actress could survive this role, which has the gravity and verisimilitude of a sketch from a late-sixties Nancy Sinatra TV special.
  5. A One-Joke Show.
  6. An authentically spirited popcorn movie.
  7. As with most non-Disney animated features, Trumpet of the Swan does make the Mouse look like a genius.
  8. To the film’s credit, it doesn’t waste much time in doling out shadowy figures and fake-outs for the gullible and easily goosed, and the cast as a whole dutifully delivers its panicked looks and cries in the night.
  9. By any measure, 'Temptation' ranks amongst Tyler Perry's worst.
  10. For me, Trixie finds its own peculiar groove, and-buoyed by a compulsively watchable actress-folds neatly into the off-center work of a distinctive American director.
  11. One way or the other, there really is something to be said for a movie which seems to revel in its own inherent comic-book silliness.
  12. Has a cute idea. Which it promptly runs into the ground.
  13. A standard morality tale, and looks especially weak in the shadow of "Eyes Wide Shut" and "Fight Club," which it resembles.
  14. Don't be surprised if you exit Here On Earth feeling both moved and incredulous.
  15. The film isn't very good. The Million Dollar Hotel is an uneasy melding of Hollywood shtick and art-house sensibilities.
  16. An endlessly contrived exercise in self-referential "black comedy", can't help but strike me as no kind of triumph of anything over anything.
  17. Embarrassing and weird.
  18. Plainly unfunny.
  19. A dismal film, a flop as both 21st-century romantic comedy and gay "Kramer vs. Kramer."
  20. There is a legitimate film in here somewhere, buried deep beneath the rubble of its terrible script and editing.
  21. It's not just bad, it's ugly. Not just stupid but really aesthetically displeasing. The sooner this movie disappears from sight, the better.
  22. Far-fetched, absurd and hopelessly schticky, but if you can get past its boring initial set-up, it’s actually quite funny.
  23. There's a lost opportunity here.
  24. Wants to be many things, but ends up being not much of anything.
  25. It has every element necessary to be a classic, and it never comes anywhere near achieving that potential.
  26. Not quite good enough to leave more than a vaguely pleasant, vaguely disappointing aftertaste.
  27. Sly, slick and slow.
  28. Custom-made for an audience of mouth-breathers.
  29. The filmmakers went for cheap laughs as well as for some a little harder-earned. The only thing pure about this film is the dog, and he's magnificent.
  30. Maybe Kevin Bacon can use the Twinkie defense to explain Hollow Man.
