Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
D 39% The Other Woman (2011) " a picture that doesn't know itself: vague whenever it needs to be specific, bloats whenever it needs to trim." — Film Experience
Posted Aug 12, 2011
D 33% Knowing (2009) " Nicolas Cage finally has an excuse for his Joey Tribiani 'smell the fart' acting style. The movie stinks." — Film Experience
Posted Mar 21, 2009
D 9% Catwoman (2004) " If 'The star has a great rack!' is the best one can say for a movie, it better be a porno." — Film Experience
Posted Oct 15, 2004
38% Savage Grace (2007) " For all the Baekalands' outrĂ© behavior, the movie is peculiarly timid at times." — Pajiba
Posted Sep 10, 2008
55% Married Life (2008) " Even movies that dare to paint dark portraits of the sacred institution can't resist glorifying it in the end." — Pajiba
Posted Sep 10, 2008
17% Sleepwalking (2008) " Theron sneaks out the door roughly 1/2 an hour into the picture. What is the movie to do without her energy?" — Film Experience
Posted May 15, 2008
64% I Could Never Be Your Woman (2007) " a rather ignominious defeat for a "comeback" performance from one of the great stars" — Film Experience
Posted May 15, 2008
35% Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007) " as elaborate, silly and attention seeking as one of Elizabeth's feathery headdresses." — Film Experience
Posted Oct 11, 2007
76% Stardust (2007) " Pfeiffer rocks. The rest is merely rocky." — Film Experience
Posted Aug 10, 2007
57% Becoming Jane (2007) " Becoming Jane isn't purposefully cynical but if you stop to consider it, it rather undermines Austen's great talent." — Film Experience
Posted Aug 6, 2007
57% Transformers (2007) " When you get a good view you'll probably be thrilled. But the thrills vanish with the next quick cut. There should have been more that met the eye." — Film Experience
Posted Jul 4, 2007
27% Evening (2007) " At first you can't believe that so much talent has been assembled. But by the end of this deathbed reverie you can't believe what they've done with that abundance." — Film Experience
Posted Jun 27, 2007
74% La Vie en Rose (La Mome) (2007) " Cotillard's impersonation of Piaf at different ages is periodically moving but as a whole the performance is no great success. You can't connect the dots between these women. This teenager is this young star is this old woman?" — Film Experience
Posted Jun 8, 2007
30% Running With Scissors (2006) " Despite passages of comic lunacy lifted directly from the book, this is all curiously unfunny." — Film Experience
Posted Oct 21, 2006
73% Flags of Our Fathers (2006) " Awkardly structured and too reminiscent of better films" — Film Experience
Posted Oct 20, 2006
35% Memoirs of a Geisha (2005) " Mother is greedy. Pumpkin is naive. Sayuri is determined. Hatsumomo is angry. Mameha is wise. Etc..." — Film Experience
Posted Nov 27, 2005
46% Rent (2005) " Though Jonathan Larson's peculiarly powerful musical survives the many botched film elements, it's still a missed opportunity." — Film Experience
Posted Nov 23, 2005
83% The Constant Gardener (2005) " A lot of righteous finger wagging along the way but many punches are pulled. More stylistic bark than substantive bite." — CineScene.com
Posted Nov 22, 2005
80% The Aristocrats (2005) " Laughs of discomfort or of the 'ewwww gross' variety are not really the same as good hearty laughs. You'll need a shower afterwards." — CineScene.com
Posted Nov 22, 2005
68% North Country (2005) " Despite Charlize Theron's efforts to play more than a saintly martyr, the film's director Niki Caro continually overstates the case." — Film Experience
Posted Nov 22, 2005
50% The Dying Gaul (2005) " Indiscriminately hostile..." — Film Experience
Posted Nov 22, 2005
81% Oldboy (2005) " Be amazed at my cruel virility. Feel the pain. Oh yeah." — Film Experience
Posted Nov 22, 2005
53% Spanglish (2004) " Despite its narrative chaos, Spanglish might have been fun to watch if it weren't for two dimensional characterizations and strange messages." — Film Experience
Posted Dec 27, 2004
37% Sylvia (2003) " Well acted and seriously mounted, but Sylvia the movie is, nevertheless, very boring." — Film Experience
Posted Dec 18, 2003
64% The Shape Of Things (2002) " ...holds the dubious distinction of being the laziest stage-to-screen transfer I've ever seen." — Film Experience
Posted Dec 18, 2003
84% Pieces of April (2003) " Patricia Clarkson livens things up in a supporting role, but we spend far more time with April, who has no discernable personality." — Film Experience
Posted Dec 18, 2003
80% 21 Grams (2003) " In its intended but self defeating form, 21 grams amounts to two hours of miserable tedium." — Film Experience
Posted Dec 18, 2003
65% The Last Samurai (2003) " The Last Samurai is either a deeply subversive film or a terriby misguided one." — Film Experience
Posted Dec 7, 2003
71% Phone Booth (2003) " A sloppy film filled with cheap moralizing. The plot holes are so large it's a good thing the streets were shut off from traffic." — Film Experience
Posted May 21, 2003
87% The Quiet American (2003) " Historical dramas fused with love triangle is a well worn conceit. But this films lacks the passion required to sell the material." — Film Experience
Posted Dec 15, 2002
63% Moonlight Mile (2002) " The net is cast far too widely. The question begins to beat around in your head. "What does this movie want to be?"" — Film Experience
Posted Dec 9, 2002
69% Personal Velocity: Three Portraits (2002) " The narrator, in a Herculean show of restraint, stops just short of reciting the dialogue for the assembled actresses. Insufferable." — Film Experience
Posted Dec 9, 2002
76% Frida (2002) " Frida is a singular icon in art history. It's a pity that what we got was a film about her marriage and not her trailblazing life as an artist." — Film Experience
Posted Dec 9, 2002
72% Auto Focus (2002) " A game performance from Kinnear, doesn't make up for the tedium onscreen. The film offers no insight that a synopsis doesn't provide." — Film Experience
Posted Nov 11, 2002
76% 8 Mile (2002) " 8 Mile is a great musical but as an inspirational drama it's trouble. Given that it revolves around a world where "keeping it real" is a permanent motto, it is, ironically enough, suspiciously phoney." — CineScene.com
Posted Nov 11, 2002
68% Red Dragon (2002) " Perhaps the whole serial killer genre is now too much like Hannibal himself; too predictable and conventional for true terror to emerge." — CineScene.com
Posted Oct 6, 2002
40% Reign of Fire (2002) " 'Question: Why are the men in a ravaged England of 2020 denied access to razors and soap, while the women still enjoy the comforts of MAC cosmetics? Just asking.'" — Film Experience
Posted Jul 29, 2002
82% Road to Perdition (2002) " "The story, so alive and idiosyncratic in its characterizations and periphery, is all hollow and cautious at the center."" — CineScene.com
Posted Jul 28, 2002
92% Minority Report (2002) " Spielberg is like a father who tells his kids scary bedtime stories but can't bear it if they have nightmares." — CineScene.com
Posted Jun 23, 2002
4% Soul Survivors (2000) " Dull and inept. It probably won't offend your sensibilities but it may insult your intelligence." — Film Experience
Posted Jun 3, 2002
8% The Forsaken (2001) " Near Dark, the last great 'vampires-in-the-desert' flick is blasphemed over and over again. If you're thinking of seeing this, don't." — Film Experience
Posted Jun 3, 2002
45% Planet of the Apes (2001) " Signing Tim Burton as director was a textbook example of a great idea on page..." — Film Experience
Posted Jun 3, 2002
68% Chop Suey (2001) " ...an alternately beautiful and annoying scrapbook of a film. And just as its title suggests, it's a mixed bag." — Film Experience
Posted May 31, 2002
55% Blow (2001) " There will certainly be worse films in theaters this year....but there will be none so tedious as Blow." — Film Experience
Posted May 30, 2002
73% A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001) " A movie with complex and rich themes -but a surplus of them. Apparently little time was spent shaping them into something multi-dimensional but eventually cohesive." — Film Experience
Posted May 30, 2002
34% World Traveler (2002) " Cal (Billy Crudup) remains both frustratingly opaque and highly unlikeable; a lethal combination when you're required to spend two hours with someone in a car." — CineScene.com
Posted May 30, 2002
27% Hollow Man (2000) " If you liked (insert any Verhoeven film here) you'll love Hollow Man! I didn't, so I don't." — Film Experience
Posted May 30, 2002
63% The Broken Hearts Club (2000) " What we have here is no less than the 30th anniversary rerelease of the infamous 70s gay-angst drama, Boys in the Band." — Film Experience
Posted May 30, 2002
39% Hannibal (2001) " As a straight-up sequel it fails to match the original in any way. As a spectacle...it works a little better." — Film Experience
Posted May 30, 2002
80% Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001) " There is such a thing as being too faithful to a novel. Many things that were amusing on the page are laborious and redundant in the film... but they're there anyway." — Film Experience
