    It's "The Postman" on a pitcher's mound.
    • New York Post
  1. It isn't particularly subtle or original. But it's a good-natured late-summer romp fueled by Lawrence's manic shtick.
    • New York Post
    • 61 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    An irresistible documentary tribute that's as yummy and insubstantial as a sackful of Twinkies.
    • New York Post
  2. Oddly undramatic.
  3. A crude, manic and embarrassingly unfunny satire that feels off from beginning to end.
    • New York Post
  4. An embarrassing misfire...feels like a long, slow TV pilot about L.A. twentysomethings, only it lacks the polish and wit of your average sitcom.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    A flat-out masterpiece, surely the best movie of the year; indeed, an all-time classic.
    • New York Post
  5. A slow, self-consciously low-key, very dull film that strains for eeriness with long silences and affectless performances.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    That insinuating, sublime atmosphere is consistently being intruded upon by the distractingly silly plot.
    • New York Post
    • 23 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A lame TV sitcom with big-screen ambition that's almost touching in its hopelessness.
  6. A remarkable accomplishment. It takes one of the century's vast tragedies...and makes it heart-rendingly real and intimate.
    • New York Post
  7. A cast almost talented enough to distract you from Ted Griffin's gimmicky screenplay.
    • New York Post
    • 73 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    (Kusturica) celebrates its gaudy humanity in a joyous picture that is his most lighthearted and amusing work to date.
    • New York Post
    • 28 Metascore
    • 38 Critic Score
    What a bloody disappointment Stigmata is!
    • 14 Metascore
    • 25 Critic Score
    Presumably Zane & Co. had a lot more fun filming this inexplicable low-budget indulgence than any sane person will have watching it.
  8. A surprisingly nasty fable about a particularly silly, very English brand of animal-rights extremism.
  9. Peter Farrelly is angry at Miramax for marketing his and his brother Bobby's new film as a follow-up to their surprise smash hit, "There's Something About Mary."
    • 33 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A ho-hummer of a "Speed" knockoff that will leave most audiences cold.
    • New York Post
  10. A deeply pleasurable, old-fashioned blood-'n'-guts adventure film.
    • New York Post
    • 38 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    A film that parents can confidently and with pleasure take their little ones to see - but which is not quite a good movie.
    • New York Post
  11. Could have been written by a computer programmed to cannibalize previous sci-fi films.
    • New York Post
    • 57 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    Begins so briskly and promisingly to stumble aimlessly and flat-footedly to a surprise finale.
    • 43 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    It's as light as a feather yet tickles all the same.
  12. A kindler, gentler comedy that's perfect for children and parents to see together.
    • New York Post
  13. Slow and predictable, and the characters are so poorly written that its hard to react to them in any way.
    • New York Post
  14. An ugly, failed attempt to pull off a "Heathers"-style, teen-oriented black comedy.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    An enjoyable minor-league lark. But another "Notting Hill?" Fuhgeddaboutit.
    • 24 Metascore
    • 25 Critic Score
    The Return is about bullets, bombs and boobs - the biggest boob being Van Damme, natch, but there are also mammaries aplenty.
  15. Bowfinger's terrific set-pieces... more than make up for the odd weak moment or thin performance.
    • New York Post
  16. Better Than Chocolate is well-filmed and for the most part well-acted. But its technical professionalism only serves to make the amateurishly crude patches of Maggie Thompson's script more obvious. [13 Aug 1999, p.062]
