Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
43% Muhammad Ali's Greatest Fight () " It's a Supreme Court movie that even the most fervent SCOTUS junkies might find underwhelming." — Washington Post
Posted Oct 3, 2013
58% Clear History (2013) " [It] has a nice, confident and well-edited breeze to it (including a lot of jokes about the band Chicago), with a fun cast that includes standout riffs from Michael Keaton, Danny McBride and Eva Mendes." — Washington Post
Posted Aug 12, 2013
91% Our Nixon (2013) " Our Nixon is a love song to a man who knew victories but just couldn't win." — Washington Post
Posted Aug 1, 2013
81% Only The Young (2012) " An elegant capture of the most elusive story of all: the awkward but nevertheless intense friendship between boys." — Washington Post
Posted Jul 23, 2013
86% Teen Beach Movie (2013) " In spite of my pasty self, there's something I liked about all the relentless mugging and frugging." — Washington Post
Posted Jul 23, 2013
—— Homegoings (2013) " Homegoings, Christine Turner's exquisitely tender documentary about a funeral director, is one of those rare opportunities to go toward the thing we fear most - death - and realize how much joy and comfort there is in it, when handled with grace and care." — Washington Post
Posted Jun 26, 2013
79% Pussy Riot- - A Punk Prayer (2013) " [It's] captivating and profoundly dismaying. If nothing else, you'll run crying with relief into the arms of the U.S. Constitution." — Washington Post
Posted Jun 10, 2013
95% Behind the Candelabra (2013) " The story as told is just too depressing, too empty and, most of all, too dead and gone." — Washington Post
Posted May 24, 2013
47% Phil Spector (2013) " Phil Spector doesn't give us much to talk about or applaud. " — Washington Post
Posted May 22, 2013
93% Top of the Lake (2013) " As slow as it seems to go at first, you'll be surprised at how quickly you're addicted." — Washington Post
Posted Mar 22, 2013
80% The World According to Dick Cheney () " It's hard to imagine who will watch The World According to Dick Cheney and come away satisfied or newly informed; even those prone to froth angrily at the mere mention of Cheney's name will have to work extra hard to get outraged all over again." — Washington Post
Posted Mar 13, 2013
100% The Loving Story (2012) " Their story is a powerful statement about freedom." — Washington Post
Posted Jan 25, 2013
100% Paradise Lost 3: Purgatory (2012) " Paradise Lost 3 is perhaps the most interesting and well-made film of the trilogy." — Washington Post
Posted Jan 22, 2013
97% Sing Your Song (2012) " Sing Your Song is broad and complete, but like most biographical documentaries of legendary performers that we've seen of late, it is also hagiographic." — Washington Post
Posted Aug 30, 2012
67% Method to the Madness of Jerry Lewis (2013) " The old clips are still a hoot, but there's a limit to how much compressed air a viewer can take, listening to a bunch of old men talk about how funny their friend was." — Washington Post
Posted Aug 13, 2012
85% George Harrison: Living In The Material World () " It is exhaustive and loopy and it takes two nights to watch." — Washington Post
Posted Aug 6, 2012
65% Game Change (2013) " Game Change comes too soon and too raw, smack in the middle of another ugly political season." — Washington Post
Posted Aug 3, 2012
26% Land of the Lost (2009) " Land of the Lost is not completely terrible, and it moves briskly and safely, even though its more laugh-worthy bits have already been seen in endless commercials for the movie." — Washington Post
Posted Jun 5, 2009
89% Robert Blecker Wants Me Dead (2008) " On a deeper level (and a skillfully conscious one on the part of filmmaker Ted Schillinger) it's a portrait of two men's utter loneliness in their thoughts." — Washington Post
Posted Mar 13, 2009
18% Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008) " This one shucks off all pretense that Star Wars has a wonderfully universal appeal and instead unfolds with all the entertainment value of watching somebody else play a video game." — Washington Post
Posted Aug 14, 2008
32% The X-Files: I Want to Believe (The X Files 2) (2008) " With simple sanity and a refreshing lack of flash, Mulder and Scully capably lay out the dull evidence: Our big summer movies are part of a plot to trash our minds. I want to believe Mulder and Scully are correct." — Washington Post
Posted Jul 24, 2008
50% A Four Letter Word (2008) " The cliches of bad gay filmmaking were lampooned in 2006's Another Gay Movie. Well, here's another gay movie. Things haven't moved an inch." — Washington Post
Posted Jun 5, 2008
41% Dedication (2007) " Gratingly hip, joyless, small-budget Dedication is just another example of what New Yorker magazine recently identified as the 'slacker-striver' trope in today's romances." — Washington Post
Posted Sep 20, 2007
41% No Reservations (2007) " There's already a crazy behind-the-scenes restaurant movie out this summer, and it's got a better story, and it's a cartoon, and it stars a rat." — Washington Post
Posted Jul 26, 2007
46% Constantine (2005) " Reeves wears essentially the same black wardrobe, does the same moves, shows off the same galling lack of acting ability, but with a slightly different haircut." — Washington Post
Posted Feb 18, 2005
77% Team America - World Police (2004) " Profane and sometimes bitingly funny." — Washington Post
Posted Oct 15, 2004
3.5/5 30% Scooby-Doo (2002) " Although Scooby-Doo falls far short of becoming the Blazing Saddles of Generations X, Y and Z, it is hard to resist in its moronic charms." — Washington Post
Posted Jun 14, 2002
3/5 66% CQ (2002) " A certain sexiness underlines even the dullest tangents." — Washington Post
