Rating	T-Meter	Title \| Year	Add Date (default)

Rotten F	Rotten 6%	Old Dogs (2009)	" ...a morass of cliche, crotch shots and utter disregard for both logic and the audience. Walt Disney and poor Bernie Mac must be turning over in their graves." — Reeling Reviews Posted Nov 24, 2009
Rotten F	Rotten 12%	National Security (2003)	" I'll give ten bucks to the first gypsy willing to curse anyone even suggesting a sequel." — Reeling Reviews Posted Jan 16, 2003
Rotten F	Rotten 13%	Thirteen Ghosts (2001)	" a hideous, crashing bore" — Reeling Reviews Posted Oct 26, 2001
Rotten D-	Rotten 16%	Gentlemen Broncos (2009)	" The script is condescending to its characters to the point that poor Jennifer Coolidge should file abuse charges." — Reeling Reviews Posted Nov 6, 2009
Rotten D-	Rotten 18%	The Fourth Kind (2009)	" I'd love to be at a screening of "The Fourth Kind" in Nome, where it's sure to be greeted as a comedy." — Reeling Reviews Posted Nov 6, 2009
Rotten D-	Fresh 63%	Extract (2009)	" ...a dismal looking affair with flat sound. If it's title sounds like something that might happen in a dentist's office, that's about what sitting through it feels like." — Reeling Reviews Posted Sep 3, 2009
Rotten D-	Rotten 25%	Land of the Lost (2009)	" Will Ferrell has officially used up my cache of good will..." — Reeling Reviews Posted Jun 4, 2009
Rotten D-	Rotten 17%	Fly Me To The Moon (2008)	" Fly Me to the Moon's idea of high hilarity is to have Nat's mom fret 'Oh my lord of the flies,' then feel the need to repeat the 'joke.'" — Reeling Reviews Posted Aug 14, 2008
Rotten D-	Rotten 28%	What Happens in Vegas (2008)	" ...has nothing to recommend it but the sight of Ashton Kutcher in a pink boa wearing a yard long glass in a cocktail sling...This one shouldclearly have stayed in Vegas." — Reeling Reviews Posted May 8, 2008
Rotten D-	Rotten 46%	Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theatres (2007)	" Except for an intriguing opening segment that pits a traditional bunch of movie snacks singing a suggestive jingle pitted against an aggressive punk counterpart, the movie is a bore." — Reeling Reviews Posted Sep 22, 2007
Rotten D-	Rotten 46%	Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theatres (2007)	" Boston's Mayor Tom 'Mumbles' Menino wanted this film banned in Boston and this is the first time I would heartily support that Puritanical ethic. The end would have justified the means." — rec.arts.movies.reviews Posted Apr 12, 2007
Rotten D-	Rotten 11%	The Messengers (2007)	" ...just what is that Asian girl ghost doing in a Nebraska barn?" — Reeling Reviews Posted Feb 10, 2007
Rotten D-	Rotten 10%	Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo (2005)	" *There's a mood and a market for really low and dumb humor, but Deuce Bigelow: European Gigolo* doesn't even seem to be aiming that high.*" — Reeling Reviews* Posted Aug 11, 2005
Rotten D-	Rotten 19%	Adventures of Sharkboy and Lava Girl in 3-D (2005)	" Mind-numbingly boring and woodenly acted...The Rodriguezes are subjecting everyone to their own home movie" — Reeling Reviews Posted Jun 9, 2005
Rotten D-	Rotten 5%	Christmas with the Kranks (2004)	" like spending your holiday with relatives from hell" — Reeling Reviews Posted Nov 23, 2004
Rotten D-	Rotten 19%	Soul Plane (2004)	" The IMDB informs that director Jessy Terrero is the nephew of "Raising Victor Vargas'" grandmother...I can only hope she slapped him upside the head for this. " — Reeling Reviews Posted May 29, 2004
Rotten D-	Rotten 2%	Twisted (2004)	" Ashley Judd has squandered the initial promise she showed in "Ruby in Paradise" with one hackneyed police/serial killer thriller after another" — Reeling Reviews Posted Feb 27, 2004
Rotten D-	Rotten 38%	Ken Park (2002)	" Thoroughly vile!...It galls me to think that other nations might believe this is what American youth is really like" — Reeling Reviews Posted Aug 30, 2003
Rotten D-	Rotten 11%	Besotted (2002)	" From the choppy editing to the annoying score to 'special effects' by way of replacing objects in a character's hands below the camera line, "Besotted" is misbegotten" — Reeling Reviews Posted Dec 21, 2002
Rotten D-	Rotten 19%	Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001)	" Sitting through "Lara Croft: Tomb Raider" had me wishing I'd brought a PlayStation to the theater because the entertainment sure wasn't on the screen." — Reeling Reviews Posted Jun 16, 2001

Rotten D	Rotten 12%	Bride Wars (2009)	" ...only Hudson has been stumping the talk shows on this one. Hathaway appears to be hiding in her closet until it blows over and everyone gets back to remembering her previous film." — Reeling Reviews Posted Jan 8, 2009
Rotten D	Rotten 54%	Choke (2008)	" Writer/director Clark Gregg has adapted the Chuck "Fight Club" Palahniuk novel and one wonders - why?" — Reeling Reviews Posted Sep 25, 2008
Rotten D	Rotten 20%	Righteous Kill (2008)	" Lazy, muddled and so misdirected it should be a felony itself, "Righteous Kill" is nothing but a cheap trick." — Reeling Reviews Posted Sep 11, 2008
Rotten D	Rotten 37%	Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden? (2008)	" Spurlock's second non-fiction effort (it rankles to label it documentary) is nothing but a boondoggle throughout the Middle East with high production values and no fresh insight." — Reeling Reviews Posted Apr 18, 2008
Rotten D	Fresh 65%	The Jane Austen Book Club (2007)	" ...formulaic beach-read of a movie populated by one-dimensional cliches...may have seemed merely subpar had it been released by a major, but bearing the usually so reliable Sony Pictures Classics label makes it loathsome." — Reeling Reviews Posted Sep 22, 2007
Rotten D	Rotten 13%	Mr. Woodcock (2007)	" Watch out when the best thing to say about a movie is that director Craig Gillespie has staged one of the better 'getting catapulted off of a treadmill' scenes." — Reeling Reviews Posted Sep 15, 2007
Rotten D	Rotten 54%	Eagle Vs. Shark (2007)	" ...a perfect example of manufactured tweeness, a film desperate to be quirky and offbeat but which just doesn't get it..." — Reeling Reviews Posted Jun 23, 2007
Rotten D	Rotten 8%	The Number 23 (2007)	" With its glaring plot holes, over-reliance on coincidence and unexplained central conceit, it is hard to fathom why this project drew the likes of Jim Carry and Virginia Madsen." — Reeling Reviews Posted Mar 2, 2007
Rotten D	Rotten 8%	The Number 23 (2007)	" ...it's as if debuting screenwriter Fernley Phillips was too lazy to even rip off second rate King." — rec.arts.movies.reviews Posted Feb 24, 2007
Rotten D	Rotten 5%	Because I Said So (2007)	" Even the film's costume designer makes Keaton look ridiculous which is no mean feat given that she's clothed in the actress's own style." — rec.arts.movies.reviews Posted Feb 3, 2007
Rotten D	Rotten 22%	The Quiet (2006)	" Good grief." — Reeling Reviews Posted Sep 3, 2006
Rotten D	Rotten 35%	Saw II (2005)	" ...the premise of the second is hackneyed, its acting weak, its score thudding and its direction and production values low rent" — Reeling Reviews Posted Oct 27, 2005
Rotten D	Fresh 78%	Red Eye (2005)	" Current 'it' girl Rachel McAdams and Irish heartthrob Cillian Murphy had best hope this one passes beneath the radar at supersonic speed." — Reeling Reviews Posted Aug 18, 2005
Rotten D	Rotten 24%	The Amityville Horror (2005)	" From the team that decided it was a good idea to remake "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" comes this unpleasant, exploitative and stupid film." — Reeling Reviews Posted Apr 14, 2005
Rotten D	Rotten 13%	Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen (2004)	" ..shrill, numbing and painful to sit through. Maybe this movie will find an audience in children young enough to be entertained by bright colors." — Reeling Reviews Posted Feb 20, 2004
Rotten D	Rotten 7%	The New Guy (2002)	" plays like a series of unrelated scenes that were thrown into a blender with a broken puree button" — Reeling Reviews Posted May 8, 2002

Rotten D	Rotten 23%	Snow Dogs (2002)	" the type of broad, fish out of water comedy where each crossed signal is telegraphed a mile away and the lead character falls down a lot" — Reeling Reviews Posted Jan 17, 2002
Rotten D	Rotten 14%	Scary Movie 2 (2001)	" just goes through the motions of parodying one movie after another without any apparent stab at wit or humor" — Reeling Reviews Posted Jul 4, 2001
Rotten D	Rotten 53%	Cats & Dogs (2001)	" I couldn't be cattier - "Cats & Dogs" should be relegated to the pooper scooper." — Reeling Reviews Posted Jul 4, 2001
Rotten D	Rotten 11%	Freddy Got Fingered (2001)	" Tom Green cowrites, directs and stars in what is essentially Tom Green's primal scream. So, if Tom Green screams in an empty theater, does he make a sound?" — Reeling Reviews Posted May 23, 2001
Rotten D	Rotten 19%	Thomas and the Magic Railroad (2000)	" I just can't recommend it." — rec.arts.movies.reviews Posted Jan 1, 2000
