Biography:
I have been involved with DVD and film review for eight years, since the age of sixteen. I was the founder and operator of The DVD Line, one of the very first online DVD review sites. When it closed down in the summer of 2000, I did DVD reviews part time for DVD Angle. In 2003 I founded FromTheBalcony.com, which is an ever-growing site of reviews and editorials. I am a member of the Online Film Critics Society (OFCS), Central Ohio Film Critics Association (COFCA), and the Internet Entertainment Writers Association (IEWA).

Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
F 12% The Bounty Hunter (2010) " I hated this movie. It's lazy, it's annoying, and it lasts a lifetime at 110 minutes." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Mar 19, 2010
0/5 5% Good Luck Chuck (2007) " That the film even tries to be heartfelt is egregious in itself, but "good luck" finding it among the horrendously executed slapstick, equally disastrous gross-out humor, and so much blatant racism, homophobia, and scorn for everyone else." — Bullz-Eye.com
Posted Sep 22, 2007
F 5% Good Luck Chuck (2007) " Dane Cook plays a dentist in Good Luck Chuck... Having had braces, three tooth extractions, three bone graphs, and three dental implants, I can say with relative ease that none of that was as painful as watching this pathetic waste of celluloid." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Sep 20, 2007
F 24% Halloween (2007) " John Carpenter can rest easy; any self-respecting horror fan will forget this film even exists by the time the real Halloween rolls around this year." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Aug 30, 2007
F- 5% Because I Said So (2007) " Apparently retrieved from a dumpster, labeled "Rejected Sitcom Brain Farts," at the Universal back lot and Scotch-taped back together, the screenplay can only be described as a crime against moviegoers worldwide." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Feb 1, 2007
F 16% Turistas (Paradise Lost) (2006) " The tagline says 'go home.' I say 'stay home.'" — FromTheBalcony
Posted Nov 30, 2006
F 30% Running With Scissors (2006) " Here is a film so loathsome, so pointless, and so painful to watch that I could only wince as it bounced from scene to scene (or more accurately, skit to skit)." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Oct 26, 2006
F 24% RV (2006) " This is frighteningly outdated formula filmmaking at its worst." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Apr 26, 2006
F 9% When a Stranger Calls (2006) " The film contains no suspense, no scares, and absolutely no reason for existing." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Feb 2, 2006
F 10% Aeon Flux (2005) " I usually bypass puns based upon a film's title, but here I can't help myself: Aeon Flux is a flux-up of prodigious proportions." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Dec 1, 2005
F 19% Domino (2005) " Not since 1993's Coneheads have I hated every moronic minute of a film, but Domino has put a stop to that drought." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Oct 13, 2005
F 21% Into the Blue (2005) " Watch as millions of dollars are hurled at us in the form of bad special effects and an impenetrable labyrinth of a story that I cannot imagine a single soul caring about." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Sep 29, 2005
F 13% Stealth (2005) " Anyone with a Playstation 2, surround sound, and an aerial combat game can duplicate, if not surpass, this dismal display." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jul 26, 2005
F 4% House of the Dead (2003) " Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Exhibit A in the evidence that no more video games, under any conditions, should be made into movies." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jun 20, 2005
F 1% Alone in the Dark (2005) " As long as director Uwe Boll is given money to make films, we are guaranteed at least one unintentionally uproarious gut-buster a year." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jun 15, 2005
D- 27% Green Lantern (2011) " Green Lantern isn't just bad, it's Fantastic Four bad." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jun 16, 2011
D- 24% The Dilemma (2011) " ...stretches patience, common sense, and anyone's ability to stomach Vince Vaughn rambling his way through an eternally long two hours." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jan 13, 2011
D- 42% Faster (2010) " Faster actually wants us to take this seriously, and it's crushed under its own weight with this assertion." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Nov 24, 2010
D- 28% Clash of the Titans (2010) " Well, at least I know what setting $70 million ablaze looks like in 3D." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Apr 2, 2010
D- 16% When in Rome (2010) " We're not talking Because I Said So bad, but at least Couples Retreat bad." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jan 29, 2010
D- 4% Code Name: The Cleaner (2007) " It's not often that a 90 minute film could lose twenty minutes and still end up with an identical result, but Code Name: The Cleaner does pull that off. If only someone had made [director Les] Mayfield aware of that somewhere along the line." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jan 4, 2007
D- 4% Happily N'ever After (2006) " Limping into theaters at the least admirable time of year, the film is a disaster on a scale we may not have seen yet in this genre. That would make it a new low." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jan 4, 2007
D- 47% Miami Vice (2006) " Where did all the money go? That's all I could think about while watching Miami Vice, the summer stinker for this week." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jul 27, 2006
D- 21% You, Me and Dupree (2006) " You, Me and Dupree is exactly the kind of brainless, witless junk that Hollywood knows it can peel off the scrap heap at any time and make a quick trip to the bank on." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jul 13, 2006
D- 40% Nacho Libre (2006) " Nacho Libre serves as further evidence to the theory that people will laugh at anything as long as they expect to." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jun 16, 2006
D- 61% The New World (2005) " Only Terrence Malick could get away with this." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jan 18, 2006
D- 11% Halloween - Resurrection (2002) " A pretty funny comedy starring the one, the only, the incomparable...Busta Rhymes." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Oct 28, 2005
D- 11% The Man (2005) " When the bathroom humor is the best part of your film, it's time to go back to the drawing board." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Sep 7, 2005
D- 29% The Punisher (2004) " The Punisher is Commando with an identity crisis." — FromTheBalcony

Posted Jun 20, 2005
D- 46% Eurotrip (2003) " If you took every road trip comedy ever made, ingested them, then bonged a bottle of ex-lax, this is what would show up a half hour later." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jun 20, 2005
D- 7% Envy (2004) " I don't think any critic could have predicted a turkey like this based on the immense level of talent that is involved here." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jun 20, 2005
D- —— Atomic Train (1999) " Just as bad as it sounds." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jun 17, 2005
D- 27% Anacondas - The Hunt for the Blood Orchid (2004) " So who is this movie for? Based on my experience at the theater, kids who just turned thirteen yesterday." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jun 17, 2005
D- 9% White Noise (2005) " An effective ad campaign for a colossal mess." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jun 16, 2005
D- 4% Darkness (2004) " It's unfortunate that the film is called Darkness because this means it will soon be relegated to the Wal Mart bargain bin next to 2003's stinker Darkness Falls." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jun 15, 2005
D- 11% Are We There Yet? (2005) " It's never too early to start that 'Worst of 2005' list, and Are We There Yet? is already a worthy contender." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jun 15, 2005
D- 24% The Amityville Horror (2005) " I have a small bit of admiration for a film that actually tries to be worse than Hide and Seek." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Apr 25, 2005
D- 30% Be Cool (2005) " I can only recommend you 'be cool' and avoid this vanity project dreck." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Mar 3, 2005
D- 6% Son of the Mask (2005) " None of the sequences take time to develop and buildup; they're just thrown at us mindlessly." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Feb 18, 2005
D 32% I Am Number Four (2011) " This is a whimper of a film simply trying to capitalize on the success of the Twilight formula and, well, every superhero movie under the sun." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Feb 17, 2011
D 28% Life as We Know It (2010) " Life As We Know It contains what has to be the most unappetizing setup in romantic comedy history." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Oct 7, 2010
D 6% The Last Airbender (2010) " Where's the fun? We're talking about characters that can throw fire and water. Where's the excitement and sense of wonder?" — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jun 30, 2010
D 10% Grown Ups (2010) " This is as flat, lazy, and uninspired of a comedy as any in years." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Jun 24, 2010
D 15% Sex and the City 2 (2010) " At this point it's virtually impossible to escape the cruel irony that Sex and the City, the show, ended when it did so that it wouldn't become what this movie is." — FromTheBalcony
Posted May 28, 2010
D 12% Couples Retreat (2009) " There's only one winner in this film, and it's Applebee's. Take my word for it and watch some Travel Channel instead." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Oct 8, 2009
D 26% Seven Pounds (2008) " Will Smith wants an Oscar. That much we understand. But if he thinks he can get one by playing a tragic character in very mediocre-to-bad movies, he's likely mistaken." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Dec 18, 2008
D 26% Eagle Eye (2008) " The screenwriters, four in all, and director D.J. Caruso completely squander any opportunity to be original and instead opt to make a generic and completely unsatisfying thriller." — FromTheBalcony
Posted Sep 25, 2008
D 15% Over Her Dead Body (2008) " This January has been surprisingly pain-free, a rarity for sure, but this heap brings matters back to a stark reality." — FromTheBalcony
