Rotten 1.5/4	Rotten 34%	The Black Dahlia (2006)	" Such a baroque, incoherent mess it fails to please as a period piece or a murder mystery." Posted Sep 14, 2006
Fresh 2.5/4	Fresh 91%	Neil Young - Heart of Gold (2006)	" It shows the whole of Young's music as a well-worn mixture of brawn and grace. But it reveals the new Young album, Prairie Wind, as a sometimes musty echo of his 1972 acoustic-rock classic, Harvest." Posted Apr 6, 2006
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 77%	It's All Gone Pete Tong (2005)	" It's All Gone Pete Tong practically yanks the viewer along the wild arc of Frankie's life. But there's no other way to travel through the rock-star world he inhabits." Posted May 12, 2005
Rotten 2/4	Rotten 42%	Beyond the Sea (2004)	" *Spacey's singing turns out to be the most plausible and appealing element of Beyond the Sea. It's just about everything else that needed rethinking.*" Posted Dec 29, 2004
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 89%	Tom Dowd and the Language of Music (2004)	" As affectionate and energetic as its subject." Posted Aug 12, 2004
Fresh 2.5/4	Fresh 77%	Tupac: Resurrection (2003)	" It does have the limitations of the form: selective memory and admiring treatment that errs on the side of its subject. But Resurrection also humanizes Shakur even as it enshrines him and soft-pedals some difficult questions." Posted Nov 14, 2003
Rotten	Fresh 75%	Intolerable Cruelty (2003)	" It winds up playing like a separation -- loud, overheated and messy." Posted Oct 10, 2003
Fresh 2.5/4	Fresh 91%	School of Rock (2003)	" Obvious but sometimes funny." Posted Oct 3, 2003
Rotten 2/4	Rotten 25%	Masked and Anonymous (2003)	" *What Masked and Anonymous* does best is bring to mind the words of another solitary dude, Clint Eastwood: 'A man's gotta know his limitations.'**" Posted Aug 28, 2003
Rotten 2/4	Fresh 64%	Brown Sugar (2002)	" This plodding romantic comedy about two friends falling in love has little of the punchy wit and storytelling dexterity that makes hip-hop a worthy source of inspiration." Posted Oct 11, 2002
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 83%	Barbershop (2002)	" A genuinely funny ensemble comedy that also asks its audience -- in a heartwarming, nonjudgmental kind of way -- to consider what we value in our daily lives." Posted Sep 13, 2002
Fresh 3.5/4	Fresh 85%	24 Hour Party People (2002)	" Think of this dizzying, sometimes surreal presentation as fabricated truth, a memoir that freely admits to coloring facts while keeping the broad essentials straight and the real names intact to expose the guilty." Posted Sep 5, 2002
Rotten 2/4	Rotten 5%	Serving Sara (2002)	" Serving Sara is fitfully funny but so threadbare in most respects that killing time is the only reason to see it." Posted Aug 23, 2002
Rotten 2/4	Rotten 54%	Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002)	" What started out as charming budget farce has become comedy by corporate affiliation." Posted Jul 25, 2002
Rotten	Rotten 48%	Eight Legged Freaks (2002)	" *Try as it might, it never equals the squirm value of Arachnophobia* or the self-mocking wit of Tremors and Lake Placid.**" Posted Jul 17, 2002
Rotten 2/4	Rotten 15%	Crossroads (2002)	" Borrows from other movies like it in the most ordinary and obvious fashion." Posted Feb 15, 2002
Rotten	Rotten 27%	How High (2001)	" *Even when aiming low, How High* is too stupid or stoned to hit many marks.**" Posted Dec 20, 2001
Rotten	Fresh 70%	Grateful Dawg (2001)	" Starts to dissolve into a pleasant but overlong home movie." Posted Dec 7, 2001
Rotten	Rotten 18%	On the Line (2001)	" This one is pretty slight." Posted Oct 26, 2001
Rotten	Rotten 52%	Rock Star (2001)	" Writer and director are content to plod the old walk of fame without much irony or questioning." Posted Sep 6, 2001
