|---|---|---|---|
| 3/4 | 68% | Redbelt (2008) |
In Redbelt, David Mamet enters the realm of sports drama and Rocky-underdog clichà (C)s and discovers it's a surprisingly good fit.‐ Miami Herald

| 28% | Kingdom Come (2001) |
There are long stretches of dialogue and not a lot of action.‐ Miami Herald

| 53% | Josie and the Pussycats (2001) |
There have been too many movies trading on old TV shows for another one to inspire anything but weariness.‐ Miami Herald

| 81% | The House of Mirth (2000) |
It has such an eerie contemporary resonance that you nearly forget about the horses and corsets and lamplight.‐ Miami Herald

| 43% | Someone Like You (2001) |
An oddly flat, quirky romantic comedy.‐ Miami Herald

|
| 23% | See Spot Run (2001) |
The crawling narrative starts out as a version of Adam Sandler's Big Daddy with training wheels.‐ Miami Herald

| 10% | Head over Heels (2001) |
[Teens] deserve decent movies, but instead they get glop like Head Over Heels. There ought to be a law.‐ Miami Herald

| 55% | Malena (2000) |
The cliches in this movie are as ripe and plump and tightly packed as olives in a jar. But the surface is handsome, moving and humorous, and people are going to like it.‐ Miami Herald

|
| 86% | State and Main (2000) |
A surfeit of farce and fast-talking makes up for a lack of plot.‐ Miami Herald

|
| 53% | Save the Last Dance (2001) |
A decent, well-put-together romantic drama to hold hands to on the weekend.‐ Miami Herald

|
| 53% | The Family Man (2000) |
For a holiday movie, it doesn't have much about giving or sharing.‐ Miami Herald

| 42% | Miss Congeniality (2000) |
The players are game. Too bad they don't have much of a coach or a plan.‐ Miami Herald

|
| 55% | The Little Vampire (2000) |
There are some decent lessons about power and when to use it and when to give it up, about accepting rather than attacking those who are different and about dealing with fear.‐ Miami Herald

| 9% | Urban Legends: Final Cut (2000) |
Everything in the movie is ripped off from somewhere else.‐ Miami Herald

|
| 74% | Next Stop Wonderland (1998) |
A soulful, thoughtful comedy!‐ Miami Herald

|
| 22% | Lucky Numbers (2000) |
Ends up looking like cut-rate Coen, and it's got an obtrusive soundtrack straight from the heavy-metal bargain bin.‐ Miami Herald

|
| 3% | Bless the Child (2000) |
The whole thing's grotesque as a gargoyle and ugly as sin.‐ Miami Herald

|
| 49% | Bedazzled (2000) |
A cute and clever good-vs-evil parable that ought to appeal to those weary of SNL retreads and gross-out humor.‐ Miami Herald

|
| 57% | Pitch Black (2000) |
Despite far too many video-game moments and annoying taglines, the scifi thriller Pitch Black just may be the most entertainingly derivative movie of the millennium so far.‐ Miami Herald

|
| 23% | Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo (1999) |
The teenage boys say 'ewww' and the teenage girls say 'awww,' and you've recouped your $8 million in no time.‐ Miami Herald

|
| 61% | The Wood (1999) |
Even the charismatic Epps can't bail out a script that lacks tension, too often substitutes high-fives for dialogue or action and calls for farce scenes that used to get 'em rolling in the stone aisles of ancient Greece.‐ Miami Herald
