Movies TV Shows
Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars (2004) 67% 5/10 EDIT “A generic, non-descript bit of punctuation at the end of a series that deserved something more and just couldn't leave well enough alone.” – IGN Movies Apr 19, 2018 Full Review Spider-Man (2002) 90% 7/10 EDIT “This is about as good as a comic-to-film adaptation gets.” – IGN Movies Jul 7, 2015 Full Review Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002) 82% EDIT “It appears that the production has learned from its mistakes and managed to put together the kind of film that deserves to be a part of young adult film folklore for generations to come.” – IGN Movies Dec 6, 2014 Full Review Police Academy (1984) 58% 3/5 EDIT “” – IGN Movies Apr 28, 2005 Full Review The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (2005) 61% 2/5 EDIT “The BBC did a better job with 1/10th of the budget in 1982.” – IGN Movies Apr 28, 2005 Full Review Steamboy (2004) 61% 4/5 EDIT “The visuals are nothing short of stunning.” – IGN Movies Mar 17, 2005 Full Review The Forgotten (2004) 31% 2/5 EDIT “Will be forgotten by the filmgoing public very, very quickly.” – IGN Movies Sep 24, 2004 Full Review Exorcist: The Beginning (2004) 10% 1/5 EDIT “The film's pace is slow and deliberate, probably in an attempt to try to build mood and suspense, but all it manages to build is excruciating boredom.” – IGN Movies Aug 20, 2004 Full Review Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004) 90% 4.5/5 EDIT “In Azkaban, Cuarn has made a character-driven film almost completely devoid of a big, senses-shattering, Hollywood climax. Even more amazing, you never miss it.” – IGN Movies Jun 11, 2004 Full Review Envy (2004) 7% 1/5 EDIT “A barely amusing collection of standard comic devices.” – IGN Movies Apr 30, 2004 Full Review Looney Tunes: Back in Action (2003) 57% 2/5 EDIT “Joe Dante & Warner Brothers destroy more of our childhood memories.” – IGN Movies Jan 17, 2004 Full Review Bad Santa (2003) 78% 2.5/5 EDIT “A wildly uneven but occasionally funny blast of holiday ill-will.” – IGN Movies Jan 17, 2004 Full Review Minority Report (2002) 89% EDIT “Minority Report is proof that a real science fiction can still be made in Hollywood.” – IGN Movies Dec 25, 2002 Full Review The Rocketeer (1991) 67% 4/5 EDIT “One of the most faithful visual adaptations of a comic series every put to film, The Rocketeer failed to find it's deserved audience but is worth the rental or purchase.” – IGN Movies Aug 8, 2002 Full Review Demon Seed (1977) 57% 3/5 EDIT “” – IGN Movies Aug 8, 2002 Full Review The Lion in Winter (1968) 91% 4/5 EDIT “” – IGN Movies Aug 8, 2002 Full Review Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (1993) 83% 5/5 EDIT “What the live action Batman films should be and could be if the Warner Brother execs could pull their heads out long enough to realize it. Frankly, the live action Bat-films are embarassing compared to this and the other animated films.” – IGN Movies Aug 8, 2002 Full Review Mr. Nanny (1993) 6% 0/5 EDIT “” – IGN Movies Aug 8, 2002 Full Review Dawn of the Dead (1978) 92% 5/5 EDIT “A true classic of the horror genre.” – IGN Movies Aug 8, 2002 Full Review The Crying Game (1992) 95% 4/5 EDIT “Got too much buzz because of the ending but despite the hype, still a pretty good movie. And Jaye Davidson has a purty mouth.” – IGN Movies Aug 8, 2002 Full Review Paint Your Wagon (1969) 45% 3/5 EDIT “Not as bad as some would make you believe. But I'm still not looking forward to that Clint Eastwood Sings Sinatra album.” – IGN Movies Aug 8, 2002 Full Review Ghost Dad (1990) 6% 0/5 EDIT “Should have been titled "Cosby's Ghost Film Career". And to think Poitier directed this thing. It's a TV comedy skit gone wrong.” – IGN Movies Aug 8, 2002 Full Review Children of the Corn (1984) 38% 3/5 EDIT “Ooooooo... scary kids! Don't go into the cornfields alone after this one.” – IGN Movies Aug 8, 2002 Full Review Down and Out in Beverly Hills (1986) 77% 3/5 EDIT “” – IGN Movies Aug 8, 2002 Full Review Naked Killer (1992) 80% 5/5 EDIT “Bad subtitles, lesbian contract killers and an impotent cop. Not much more you could ask for in a movie.” – IGN Movies Aug 8, 2002 Full Review
