1.5/4 6% A Sound of Thunder (2005) " Bradbury's classic 1952 short story is brilliant and thought-provoking; the movie isn't. On the bright side, it's bad in a campy, "ooh, it's on cable at 2am" kind of way." — Reel.com
Posted Sep 2, 2005
1.5/4 7% Undiscovered (2005) " Anyone who has an actual interest in filmmaking or music would be best served by staying far, far away." — Reel.com
Posted Aug 26, 2005
4/4 —— Six Feet Under - The Complete Fourth Season (2005) " Six Feet Under is every bit as addictive in Season Four as it was when it first aired." — Reel.com

Posted Aug 11, 2005
3/4 52% Four Brothers (2005) " Four Brothers revels in its own testosterone." — Reel.com
Posted Aug 11, 2005
2.5/4 —— Elvis Has Left the Building (2004) " "Romp" is a good word to describe this movie. "Campy" is another...Get the picture? Don't think too hard - it's just screwball comedy. And as such, it works." — Reel.com
Posted Aug 3, 2005
1.5/4 13% Slaves of New York (1989) " There are so many good movies about New York, across the gamut of styles. Don't waste your time on this one." — Reel.com

Posted Jul 28, 2005
2.5/4 —— Remington Steele - Season 1 (2005) " If you aren't old enough to be embarrassed about your 1980s hairstyle, you'll probably love Remington Steele. Any older and you'll cringe." — Reel.com
Posted Jul 28, 2005
3/4 76% Cry-Baby (1990) " Waters is just as offbeat as any of his film characters- and he surrounds himself with creative people who wouldn't at all be out of place in a John Waters movie." — Reel.com

Posted May 15, 2005
3/4 88% Twelve Monkeys (12 Monkeys) (1995) " Terry Gilliam must have had (and kept track of) some major acid trips in his life, because his films are weird. They're also brilliant." — Reel.com

Posted Feb 25, 2005
