Abandon (2002) |
"Challenging, intermittently engrossing and unflaggingly creative. But it's too long and too convoluted and it ends in a muddle." |

Aeon Flux (2005) |
"Paramount Pictures and MTV Films blatantly tried to keep the movie, which debuted Friday, away from critics to prevent opening-day reviews. For good reason. Hollywood suits didn't want anyone to know how utterly boring the movie is." |

Against the Ropes (2003) |
