Latest Movie Ratings

The Blair Witch Project

"The thought that Blair Witch Project just might be real makes it much scarier than any of the teen horror flicks that have stumbled along in recent years."

-- Christy Lemire , Associated Press

Scatter My Ashes At Bergdorf's

"Fawning, but fun and fashion forward."

-- Staci Layne Wilson , StaciWilson.com

The Frozen Ground

"Ultimately, the cumulative effect is deadening, just another chapter in an endless battle between overtasked and underpaid good guys, and cowardly baddies."

-- Gabe Toro , The Playlist

They Live

"John Carpenter's They Live has cult favorite written all over it, and part of the reason is the way it regenerates the cheap, juicy, surprisingly potent sci-fi of the 1950s."

-- Jay Carr , Boston Globe

The Iron Giant

"It is in the best tradition of animation: an ideal tale for children that offers a lot to adults as well."

-- Ted Anthony , Associated Press
