0/5 49% Kids (1995) — Matinee Magazine
Posted Nov 26, 2002
0/5 92% Minority Report (2002) " Spielberg's most unpleasant and derivative film, a nasty, tired, predictable affair that makes Hook look comparable to Schindler's List." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jul 25, 2002
0/5 22% Just Cause (1995) " Ridiculous from start to finish. Connery, Harris, and Fishburne couldn't have wasted their time in a less productive fashion." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jul 25, 2002
0/5 21% Harlem Nights (1989) " There's maybe two funny moments in this shrill directorial bomb from Eddie Murphy." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jul 25, 2002
0/5 85% My Own Private Idaho (1991) " Van Sant's tale of street hustlers is so barren that even the magnetic River Phoenix can't do much to help." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jul 25, 2002
0/5 83% Road to Perdition (2002) " Mendes' washed-up gangster yarn is filled with overused, pretentious attempts at style and immature notions of death, religion, fatherhood, and humanity." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jul 25, 2002
F 82% Ocean's Eleven (2001) " A landfill of toxic star personas and auteur laziness." — Matinee Magazine
Posted May 20, 2002
F 34% I Am Sam (2001) " There are few films that imprint a sense of complete and utter violation on the viewer like I Am Sam, easily the worst film of 2001." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jan 24, 2002
F 6% Pavilion of Women (2001) " So disrespectful to the art of cinema that sitting through it shows its purveyors some form of respect they don't bother to return." — Matinee Magazine
Posted May 1, 2001
F 47% The Loss of Sexual Innocence (1999) " A turgid, rotten bore that pretty much signals the death of "art" cinema as we know it." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Apr 5, 2001
F 39% Black and White (2002) " Amateurish in the worst possible way and sorely lacking ideas or any sign of intelligent life." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Mar 24, 2001
F 83% Erin Brockovich (2000) " It is not a movie, but a collection of scenes that serve one purpose only: to justify Julia Roberts as a movie star." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Mar 19, 2001
F 92% Election (1999) " Exposes the dullards who praise it as the very suckers who promote the divisions among people under the pretense of virtuous, moral insight." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
F 26% Diamonds (1999) " [Not] a work of art, or even entertainment, but the filmic commensurate of a crippled panhandler using his handicap to beg for sympathy and change on a streetcorner." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
F 67% Boiler Room (2000) " It's a callow, inert movie that has nothing to say about the state of American culture that it depicts, which amounts to fraund and brazen irresponsibility." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
F 70% Dick (1999) " The movie quickly thunders downhill like a massive boulder, effectively trampling things like common sense, taste, and, most importantly, historical significance." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
F 78% Gladiator (2000) " It's almost like [Scott]'s trying as hard as he can to make the worst movie of all time." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
D- 62% Moonlight Mile (2002) " Cranks up the oldies soundtrack and embraces narrative contrivance like there will be no tomorrow, as if the concept of death is nothing more than a feel-good exercise in smiley primetime enlightenment." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Oct 1, 2002
D- 26% Chelsea Walls (2001) " Confirms the nagging suspicion that Ethan Hawke would be even worse behind the camera than he is in front of it." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Apr 18, 2002
D- 60% Hart's War (2002) " So predictably sanctimonious it feels like it's been sitting on the shelf since the 1950's, when big-name, naively feel-good message movies were a dime a dozen." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Feb 14, 2002
D- 11% The Musketeer (2001) " Life is too short to waste on movies like The Musketeer." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Sep 7, 2001
D- 14% Driven (2001) " The most inept and cataclysmic motion picture to get released since Battlefield Earth." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Apr 25, 2001
D- 93% Spy Kids (2001) " Best used by Planned Parenthood as a pro-contraceptive, pro-choice advertisement--the idea of hauling kids to this junk is enough to make any prospective parent think twice." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Apr 4, 2001
D- 72% Snatch (2001) " The kind of moronic, blood-soaked exercise in nihilism that might have felt fresh 25 years ago if accompanied by a score of Sex Pistols music, but now is stale and moldy in its excesses." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jan 17, 2001
D- 30% Jakob the Liar (1999) " The movie does absolutely no justice to its subject matter." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
D- 9% Eye of the Beholder (2000) " The film is almost delusional in the way it believes that it's resembling sensual thought." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
D- 80% Les Amants du Pont-Neuf (The Lovers on the Bridge) (1999) " What destroys the film is the way it can't possibly come close to justifying its characters' choices, or its own." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
D- 21% Wild Wild West (1999) " Although most of the jokes fall flat and the action isn't all that creative, what's missing most from the film is a sense of wonder and magic." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
0.5/4 85% Chaos (2001) " Remarkable in that it approaches its assortment of characters with an even hand, regardless of their behavior--until the final third, that is." — Slant Magazine
Posted Jan 18, 2003
D 51% Simone (S1m0ne) (2002) " Simone is about a person who doesn't exist, and by the time it ends you wonder if there's even as much substance in the person who made it." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Sep 3, 2002
D 89% Spider-Man (2002) " Just as much of a boring, by-the-numbers, interchangeable mess as the next." — Matinee Magazine
Posted May 8, 2002
D 59% Blade II (2002) " Rambles on in a disjointed, substandard fashion from one poorly executed action sequence to the next." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Mar 21, 2002
D 28% Not Another Teen Movie (2001) " A lowly slice of wanton vulgarity that will have people smacking their heads and exclaiming, 'Not another idiotic spoof movie!'" — Matinee Magazine
Posted Dec 13, 2001
D 14% The One (2001) " The cheapest and most nonsensical slice of quasi-Science Fiction silliness since Freejack." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Nov 12, 2001
D 82% The Deep End (2001) " A mercilessly incompetent thriller that's easily as soulless (and brainless) as Tomb Raider or Planet of the Apes or Jurassic Park III." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Aug 1, 2001
D 65% Bread and Roses (2001) " Builds to the kind of derisorily bittersweet finale that earmarks productions that are infatuated with their own beliefs." — Matinee Magazine
Posted May 29, 2001
D 37% Desert Blue (1999) " Another reason to abolish the now-abhorrent [Sundance] festival altogether." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Apr 5, 2001
D 37% Beautiful Creatures (2001) " [Has] the most lopsided and nauseating cast of male pigs since Ridley Scott conned his way to a so-called feminist victory in Thelma and Louise." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Apr 4, 2001
D 29% Drowning Mona (2000) " In going out of their way to make the characters shocking and graceless, the filmmakers forgot that it's necessary for the audience to enjoy spending time with the characters." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Mar 24, 2001
D 25% Ready to Rumble (2000) " It's less about being good and more about existing to suck dollars out of wallets." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Mar 24, 2001
D 67% The Big Blue (Le Grand bleu) (1988) " Is an extra 50 minutes of bad footage reason enough to re-release an already problematic movie? I wouldn't think so." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Mar 23, 2001
D 41% Men of Honor (2000) " Bypasses the ambition and integrity found in a similar-themed but markedly better film like Norman Jewison's The Hurricane." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Mar 23, 2001
D 82% X-Men (2000) " X-Men might be a lumbering entertainment instead of a pretentious social drama, but that doesn't give Singer the right to throw forward such irresponsible messages." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Mar 19, 2001
D 33% 15 Minutes (2001) " There have been few media criticisms of late that are as hypocritical and inane." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Mar 19, 2001
D 55% Malena (2000) " Less of a story than it is an extended passage of visual fetishism and offensive sexist meandering." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Dec 14, 2000
D 48% An Everlasting Piece (2001) " Makes feeble attempts to milk whatever silliness it can out of the IRA, violence, hatred, and other likewise charming subjects." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Dec 14, 2000
D 25% Double Jeopardy (1999) " Everyone who plunked down $9.50 to see it could have most likely, at that moment the money left their hands, turned on the USA network and found the exact same movie playing." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
D 94% Three Kings (1999) " A fatuous exercise that takes its exciting premise and poisons it with boring characters, lifeless performances, and a general directorial stupidity." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
D 46% Runaway Bride (1999) " A dull, lifeless stinkbomb that plays like a 2 hour commercial for itself, hoping that the Gere-Roberts-Marshall combination is enough to warrant viewers' money. It isn't." — Matinee Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
1/5 60% Soul in the Hole (1997) — Matinee Magazine
Posted Dec 14, 2002
