[The Original Kings of Comedy] may be a little edgy, and sometimes even a little embarrassing. But it tells it like it is, and there's something damn refreshing about that. - IGN Movies

3/5 | 80% | Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005) |
Revenge of the Sith is not the "masterpiece" some make it out to be. It is, simply, a far more worthy installment than we've recently been fed. - IGN Movies

3/5 | 35% | Racing Stripes (2005) |
A sweet, heartfelt, and sometimes clever film whose reticence to maintain a consistent tone automatically condemns it to life as a scattershot novelty. - IGN Movies
