" While watching the movie, you may also feel like you've traveled back in time -- to the plots of any number of better films."

" A groin-numbing onslaught of sexual-humiliation and emission-ingestion gags."

American Wedding (2003)57%

C+
 
" Mildly amusing, but compared to Pixar's splashy fish story, the rudimentary drawings and childish gags of Nickelodeon's latest feature look, in a word, cartoonish."

" Opens with a horrific traffic accident, which seems apt since what follows is the cinematic equivalent of rubbernecking."

" Like something salvaged from Stephen King's wastebasket."

" Between bursts of automatic gunfire, the story offers a trenchant critique of capitalism."

" The film's most improbable feat? It didn't go straight to video."

" The most ill-conceived animated comedy since the 1991 dog Rover Dangerfield."

" It's no use: At this point, the bloated action figure [Seagal] couldn't restore his street cred if he joined the Wu-Tang Clan."
Posted Nov 13, 2002
 
Half Past Dead (2002)2%

" Bouncy animation and catchy songs keep the film from tasting too much like spinach."

" A competently made, mildly diverting collegiate thriller."

" It's like the worst movie Jean-Claude Van Damme never made."

" The timing in nearly every scene seems a half beat off."
Posted Sep 19, 2002
 
Stealing Harvard (2002)8%
/
C
 
" Kaos was apparently aiming for a coolly stylized, straight-faced take on Spy vs. Spy. As Maxwell Smart used to say, 'Missed it by that much.'"

" The result is so derivative, they should've called it Eskimo Pie."

" A cinematic oxymoron: the tasteful teensploitation pic."
Posted Sep 14, 2001
 
Soul Survivors (2001)4%

B+
 
" At times, the movie smacks of a standard-issue Hollywood chick flick ... Yet Elizondo's endearingly low-key performance ultimately engenders such goodwill that these quibbles seem moot."
Posted Sep 6, 2001
 
Tortilla Soup (2001)73%
/
C-
 
" The acting is so pallid that you're never sure the cast members quite get the jokes."
Posted Aug 27, 2001

" After enduring only a few minutes of this shrill debacle, you'll feel more trapped in the theater than Jimmy is by his bubble."

Bubble Boy (2001)30%

" When Kinney and Muth share scenes, it's hard not to get caught up."

" Startlingly amateurish."

" It's enjoyable only if you're under the age of 7 -- or the influence of psychedelic drugs."

The sequel adds more insults and injuries that could traumatize little ones.
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
102 Dalmatians (2000)30%

With its migraine-inducing laser showdowns and puerile gags ... Digimon almost makes you nostalgic for the relative sophistication of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Posted Jan 1, 2000
 
Digimon: The Movie (2000)23%
/
 
With its melange of poo poo humor and pop culture in jokes, Nickelodeon's Rugrats packs appeal for both kids and parents.

Rugrats in Paris (2000)74%

McDermott's natural earnestness serves him well as attorney Bobby Donnell on The Practice, but he shows zero flair for comedy.
