In monotonous narration, Rosette rants that the vendors' right to free speech should allow them to obstruct sidewalks, but the portrait of his subculture is so vaguely rendered, it will likely put audiences to sleep rather than change minds.

Unfortunately, you really only hear about prostitution from the side of the pimp.

Her star billing notwithstanding, Jolie has perhaps the ninth-largest part in the movie (behind seven humans and a dog), playing Cage's ex-girlfriend.

Suffers from terminal hoof-in-mouth disease.

A bad film with some oddly charming moments.

Watching Thirteen is like spending an hour and a half with a poker-faced teen who's obviously unhappy but refuses to talk about what's wrong.

Strident, unrepentantly one-sided but often entertaining.

Intermittently funny, often vulgar.

The most enjoyable western comedy since "Blazing Saddles."

It's not much fun to watch people go to raves. And it's even less fun to listen to people talk about how much fun it is to go to raves.

A shallow, stilted romantic thriller.

Beautiful camerawork, some interesting scenes, but extraordinarily slow.

More prettily photographed pretentious rubbish from the ridiculous Peter Greenaway.

Check your brains at the popcorn stand and hang on for a spectacular ride.

An expensive demonstration that all the spectacular effects in the world aren't enough to make a great film - but it's worth seeing for that stunning half-hour alone.

The ugly, witless pair of clowns who flit through the movie are emblematic of everything that is wrong with this dull, monumentally pretentious mess.

Has its moments, but overall it's depressing.

A heartfelt, beautifully acted film that suffers from its similarity to countless other movies.

A stunningly intelligent look at how the founder of psychoanalysis and modern psychiatry developed his ideas.

Petty larceny - but Allen's fans won't want to miss this lowbrow caper.

A cheerfully crude, well-cast (and frequently uproarious) campus comedy in the tradition of "There's Something About Mary."

This is a cheap-looking lowbrow comedy that likely would have gone straight to home video.

A compelling and beautifully photographed documentary.

The best dance movie since "Flashdance."

The real disappointment is Danny DeVito as a creepy coroner.

Goes from being tediously terrible to downright gigglesome.

Too crude for serious audiences and too serious to be good exploitation, Coming Soon is a teen sex comedy that's predictably getting a token theatrical release prior to its imminent debut on home video.

May well be the dullest and most pointless version ever filmed, thanks to a stunningly bad lead performance by Ethan Hawke.
