Constantine (2005) 46% 2/4 EDIT “It feels like a repackaged version of The Matrix, only less costly and more literal.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Feb 16, 2005 Full Review The Wedding Date (2005) 12% 2.5/4 EDIT “You may find yourself wishing for something more consequential; just because romantic comedies are supposed to be sweet doesn't mean they have to dissolve like sugar, too.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Feb 5, 2005 Full Review Alone in the Dark (2005) 1% 1/4 EDIT “Less a coherent motion picture than a series of fight scenes and shootouts that feature abysmally unconvincing special effects.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Jan 28, 2005 Full Review Assault on Precinct 13 (2005) 59% 2.5/4 EDIT “A familiar, unremarkable shoot-em-up: low on tension, suspense, and plot, and high on bullets, clichés, and one-liners.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Jan 14, 2005 Full Review Elektra (2005) 11% 1.5/4 EDIT “Badass action heroine movies are like trendy new cell phone accessories: Suddenly every girl in Hollywood has to have one.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Jan 13, 2005 Full Review Racing Stripes (2005) 35% 2/4 EDIT “One-dimensional storytelling may be necessary for very young viewers, but kids, on the whole, are smarter than Racing Stripes gives them credit for being.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Jan 10, 2005 Full Review A Very Long Engagement (2004) 79% 3.5/4 EDIT “The French version of Cold Mountain, a romance of epic proportions that thinks it's a war picture.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Jan 10, 2005 Full Review White Noise (2005) 7% 2/4 EDIT “A scary, empty thriller ... thick with middle-age fantasy but woefully thin on plot.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Jan 4, 2005 Full Review Coach Carter (2005) 63% 3/4 EDIT “A strong performance by Samuel L. Jackson enables the film to transcend the mold exploited by other teen sports dramas.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Jan 2, 2005 Full Review Meet the Fockers (2004) 38% 2/4 EDIT “Not nearly as funny as Meet the Parents, and saved only from disaster by Dustin Hoffman and Barbara Streisand.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Jan 2, 2005 Full Review Darkness (2002) 5% 1.5/4 EDIT “Scary in the familiar, intermittent way of a run-of-the-mill thriller.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Jan 2, 2005 Full Review A Love Song for Bobby Long (2004) 44% 2.5/4 EDIT “It deviates from the teen genre enough to suggest that Scarlett Johnasson is more concerned with the lateral boundaries of her range than the vertical ones.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Jan 2, 2005 Full Review The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou (2004) 57% 3/4 EDIT “Not as good as Wes Anderson's two best movies, The Royal Tenenbaums and Rushmore, but it still offers a broad sample of his distinct style.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Jan 2, 2005 Full Review The Aviator (2004) 86% 3.5/4 EDIT “If you want to understand why everyone has such high regard for Martin Scorsese, one good place to start would be with The Aviator.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Jan 2, 2005 Full Review Million Dollar Baby (2004) 90% 3.5/4 EDIT “I do not know whether Clint Eastwood has read any Steinbeck, but you would certainly think it from the way that he has filmed Million Dollar Baby.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Jan 2, 2005 Full Review The Phantom of the Opera (2004) 32% 2/4 EDIT “Bland and unremarkable.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Dec 18, 2004 Full Review Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events (2004) 72% 3/4 EDIT “A charm of fiction and imagination.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Dec 15, 2004 Full Review Intermission (2003) 74% 3/4 EDIT “A greasy, pugnacious, and very watchable ensemble movie.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Dec 14, 2004 Full Review Spanglish (2004) 54% 1.5/4 EDIT “Spanglish is a real button-pusher, one of those comedies that operates in narrative shorthand.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Dec 10, 2004 Full Review Hotel Rwanda (2004) 91% 3/4 EDIT “Hotel Rwanda is not perfect, but it compels us to be.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Dec 8, 2004 Full Review Ocean's Twelve (2004) 55% 2/4 EDIT “Soderbergh has overcomplicated what made Ocean's Eleven worthwhile: the breezy fun of watching a bunch of A-list stars goofing off.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Dec 7, 2004 Full Review Blade: Trinity (2004) 24% 1.5/4 EDIT “So far from the original Blade, that were it not for Wesley Snipes, you would probably think that it was a spin-off.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Dec 3, 2004 Full Review Closer (2004) 67% 3.5/4 EDIT “Riveting for the way it effortlessly but relentlessly dials up the tension with the things the characters say.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Dec 3, 2004 Full Review Christmas With the Kranks (2004) 5% 1.5/4 EDIT “As soggy and unhealthy as a half-baked Christmas cookie.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Nov 26, 2004 Full Review Kinsey (2004) 90% 2.5/4 EDIT “A straightforward accounting of a man's life, neatly sorted out in by-the-book Hollywood fashion.” – Kinnopio's Movie Reviews Nov 24, 2004 Full Review
