	" *Enthusiastically scored to the titular quiet storms, ersatz c&w, and hip-hop textures, the anti-rockist Slow Jam King* is more fun to listen to than watch...*" Posted Jun 6, 2006*	Slow Jam King (2004)	n/a
	" Nathalie is intricate, provocative, cleanly acted, but it's never entirely convincing -- and never more so than in the table-turning climax." Posted Apr 11, 2006	Nathalie (2003)	73%
	" Syd's emotional tailspin is embarrassingly banal, and his assertion that 'everybody here hates me' quickly applies to the audience as well." Posted Feb 7, 2006	London (2006)	14%
	" Irredeemably dull." Posted Dec 20, 2005	White Countess (2005)	51%

	" The amped-up Dickian scenario features too many frame-filling fireballs." Posted May 17, 2005	2009: Lost Memories (2005)	33%
	" The change in tone, from swiftly destabilizing drama to outright fantasy, feels less like Kim provocatively switching gears, and more like he's painted himself into a corner." Posted Apr 26, 2005	3-Iron (2005)	87%
	" Marred by a rambling voice-over at one end and a pat therapeutic resolution on the other, the film has a nice half-hour patch somewhere in the middle." Posted Apr 12, 2005	House of D (2005)	10%
	" *The let's-travel-through-the-TV-screen sequence was better in Fat Albert." Posted Mar 22, 2005*	The Ring Two (2005)	20%
	" Feels contrived." Posted Mar 7, 2005	Millions (2005)	88%
	" Bigger lopes along endlessly, a no-surprises foray into backstage high jinks and the notion of life as the best acting coach there is." Posted Feb 22, 2005	Bigger Than the Sky (2005)	13%
	" Most of the action is tedious, and the less you pay attention to the dialogue, the less you'll feel your hand inadvertently twitching as if with joystick." Posted Feb 15, 2005	Sky Blue (2005)	55%
	" Vigorously pushes the supernatural line throughout, but unfortunately its final movement is so incoherent that the whole thing collapses." Posted Jan 11, 2005	White Noise (2005)	8%
	" Exasperating Southern-lit seminar." Posted Dec 28, 2004	A Love Song for Bobby Long (2004)	42%

	" So true to its title that I've forgotten many of the details already -- and I just saw it this morning." Posted Nov 30, 2004	AmnesiA (2004)	n/a
	" Chad Friedrichs's doc has too many rock-crit talking heads, too often saying the same thing based on scant information -- a clumsy portrait of the artist that inadvertently serves as a mirror of the critical faculty itself." Posted Nov 16, 2004	Jandek - Jandek on Corwood (2004)	89%
	" Unnervingly smooth, mouths moving in strange, even frightening formations, the Polar people are the least convincing things on-screen, glaring impostors amid the otherwise painstakingly rendered scenery." Posted Nov 9, 2004	The Polar Express (2004)	57%
	" Razor-walking self-consciousness (or just plain braininess) is perhaps impossible to depict coherently on-screen, and the someone's-watching-me vibe is otherwise overfamiliar to moviegoers." Posted Oct 26, 2004	Enduring Love (2004)	60%

	" In the rare moments when a rifle, grenade, howitzer, bayonet, dagger, fist, land mine, or flamethrower isn't being deployed, the film pushes its melodramatic plotline with soap operatic shamelessness." Posted Aug 31, 2004	Tae Guk Gi: The Brotherhood of War (2004)	80%
	" Scenes end abruptly, laughs are as rare as yetis, and the overarching question seems to be: Can we turn this into a franchise?" Posted Aug 17, 2004	Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement (2004)	27%
	" Aside from cameos by Jim Broadbent (as the drunken major) and Peter O'Toole (as Nina's reclusive, eccentric father), much of the acting strains for a sophistication that quickly becomes annoying." Posted Aug 17, 2004	Bright Young Things (2004)	65%
	" Foreman aficionados may want to keep the curtains of this theater drawn, and listen as his fertile lines suggest what could have been: 'The space between the trees is blank enough for something interesting to happen in it.'" Posted Jul 13, 2004	Planet Earth: Dreams (2004)	43%
	" At times it plays like an affecting portrait of a marriage on life support intersecting with an earnest coming-of-age story, at times like a Lands' End catalog in which all the models have been instructed to squint at the middle distance." Posted Jul 13, 2004	The Door in the Floor (2004)	66%

	" Stateside's real-life frame allows the complexities of mental illness and military service to lose dramatic tension, resulting in a desultory home stretch." Posted May 18, 2004	Stateside (2004)	24%
	" The orgy of morphing, shrieking, lightning-cracking, and habitual rope-swinging quickly turns oppressive." Posted May 11, 2004	Van Helsing (2004)	22%
	" Paige eventually comes to a self-affirming decision, but the Danish interlude succeeds too well in making us feel her boredom." Posted Apr 6, 2004	The Prince & Me (2004)	27%
	" *Transpires in a somewhat chintzy fantasy kingdom lousy with more cameos than your typical Love Boat* season.*" Posted Apr 6, 2004*	Ella Enchanted (2004)	50%
	" Has characters explain transparent motivations, to convince the gullible that the feelings here are real." Posted Mar 23, 2004	Jersey Girl (2004)	40%

	" Airlessly melodramatic, full of moral brow-furrowing." Posted Dec 16, 2003	House of Sand and Fog (2003)	76%
	" The star-is-born trajectory nourishes some howlers ... as well as a thumpingly unsubtle portrayal of the creative process." Posted Dec 9, 2003	Honey (2003)	19%
	" Wan Christmas concoction." Posted Nov 4, 2003	Elf (2003)	83%
	" Based-on- a-true-story kitschfest." Posted Oct 28, 2003	Radio (2003)	34%
	" Returner might work best if one could sub its soundtrack of r&b vamps and 'I've Got the Power'-style beats for a steady stream of MST3K chatter." Posted Oct 14, 2003	Returner (2002)	35%
	" A thirdhand lark." Posted Sep 16, 2003	Secondhand Lions (2003)	60%
	" The film's problems are too numerous to list, but look for the boom mic at approximately 45m." Posted Aug 26, 2003	Green Card Fever (2003)	40%
	" George's portrait of hobo lives gets stuck in self-absorption." Posted Aug 19, 2003	Catching Out (2003)	78%
	" Blame Freaky screenwriters Heather Hach and Leslie Dixon for the yellow-peril fantasies, and instead curl up with Rodgers's novel and its sequel, A Billion for Boris, which remain eminently enjoyable today." Posted Aug 5, 2003	Freaky Friday (2003)	88%
	" *Rodriguez's DIY monomania ... is laudable in theory, but in SK3D* he may have unwittingly found a twin in the Toymaker, trapped in his own creation.*" Posted Jul 22, 2003*	Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over (2003)	44%
