Battlefield Earth (2000) |
|
"Legions of science-fiction fans will feel compelled to approach the ticket booth and scream for a refund." | |
Dan Lybarger | |

3/5 |
|
Battling Butler (1926) |
|
"One of the Great Stone Face's lesser vehicles but still worth a look." | |
Dan Lybarger | |

|
| |
3.5/4 |
|
Chicken Run (2000) |
|
"When Mel Gibson passes on to that big screen in the sky, don't be surprised if he's best remembered for playing a flirtatious rooster." | |
Dan Lybarger | |

4/10 |
|
The Core (2003) |
|
"Instead of whisking viewers to a previously unseen environment that can't yet be explored outside of a movie theater, The Core proves that the computer-generated images can be just as dull as the people who inhabit the film." | |

The Count of Monte Cristo (2002) |
|
"The change (in Edmund Dantes) isn’t just physical. It’s internal. I’m more of a predator. At the beginning of the film, he was more prey (laughs)." | |
Dan Lybarger | |

Darkman (1990) |
|
"A creative, if somewhat incoherent, flick." | |

Death of a Salesman (1985) |
|
"Schlöndorff's artificial settings and some amazing performances help keep this from looking like a typical "filmed play."" | |

7/10 |
|
The Devil's Backbone (2001) |
|
"The Devil's Backbone is a ghost story that would probably be scary even if the phantoms who inhabit it weren't around." | |
Dan Lybarger | |

|
| |
6/10 |
|
Die Another Day (2002) |
|
"Die Another Day, the latest entry in the series, almost rejuvenates the franchise because it jettisons Bond's safety net early on." | |
Dan Lybarger | |
|
|
|
| |
8/10 |
|
Finding Nemo (2003) |
|
"Thanks to a solid script by director Andrew Stanton (a Pixar regular), many of the human actors who give voices to the computer-generated fish wind up becoming more engaging than when they appear in flesh-and-blood." | |
Dan Lybarger | |
|
|
|
| |
3/4 |
|
Gladiator (2000) |
|
"Thanks to a combination of real locations and convincing computer-generated effects, Scott can create sweeping vistas and that Cecil B. DeMille would envy." | |

The Italian Job (2003) |
|
"Still, when it's working, the current film is as sweet as a plate of cannoli." | |

Julius Caesar (1953) |
|
"Brando shows some surprising flair with the Tudor dialogue, but this adaptation needs a little brushing up." | |
Dan Lybarger | |
|
|
|
| |
5/10 |
|
Manna From Heaven (2002) |
|
"Like a homemade scarf, Manna from Heaven is warm, fuzzy and clearly made with love. At times it's easy to overlook the clumsiness of the way it's stitched together." | |
Dan Lybarger | |
|
|
|
| |
8/10 |
|
Narc (2002) |
|
"Carnahan deserves credit for keeping gloom and hopelessness from getting dull." | |

Raining Stones (1993) |
|
"A gripping and occasionally disturbing look at parental sacrifice." | |
Dan Lybarger | |
|
|
|
| |
4/10 |
|
Super Troopers (2002) |
|
". Curiously, Super Troopers suffers because it doesn't have enough vices to merit its 103-minute length." | |
Dan Lybarger | |

| |
4/10 |
|
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003) |

8/10 |
|
Three Kings (1999) |
|
"Three Kings is the rarest sort of action movie. It offers the expected adrenaline jolt, but it also has a surprising amount of heart and intelligence." | |
Dan Lybarger | |
|
|
|
| |
7/10 |
|
The Trials of Henry Kissinger (2002) |
|
"Jarecki and Gibney do find enough material to bring Kissinger's record into question and explain how the diplomat's tweaked version of statecraft may have cost thousands and possibly millions of lives." | |
Dan Lybarger | |
|
|
|
| |
4/5 |
|
Vanya on 42nd Street (1994) |

Dan Lybarger | |
|
|
|
| |
2.5/4 |
|
Waking the Dead (2000) |
|
"The result Keith Gordon's gamble is a movie that intrigues and occasionally frustrates anyone willing to take a chance on it." | |
