"Even by the low standards of the horror subgenre playfully nicknamed "torture porn," P2 is scraping the bottom of the movie barrel."

"Marketed as a family-friendly adventure about a kid with magical powers, this adaptation of Susan Cooper's Newbery Award-winning book is hopelessly glum."

"The only winners in Dragon Wars are the computer-imaging geeks who must have logged tons of overtime. The rest of the world is left scratching its head at a monster epic so dismal that it doesn’t even register as a guilty pleasure."

"The trick to a comedy like this is to make an audience care about these goofballs, but we're just like everyone else the brothers come into contact with. We simply wish they would go away."

"When Jamie Kennedy wakes up from 20 years in a coma and still thinks he's in the 1980s, the results are kind of funny -- for about 5 minutes."

"The Condemned would be a lot more fun if director and co-writer Scott Wiper had approached it with humor. Instead, he delivers this nonsense with a straight face."

"It's difficult to think of a worse horror movie than Primeval, partly because it's barely a horror movie at all."

"The idea is that given the basic premise, the comedian will fill in the gaps with his own bits of business. Cedric is hardly up to the task. Though he's a scene stealer in other people's movies, he relies on tired reactions ("heeellll naw" is his mantra)."

"In this sequel to the 2002 campus comedy, Kal Penn spends much of the running time acting like Wilder I star Ryan Reynolds, which no actor with half a brain should be doing."
