Michael Jordan: To the Max (2000) 65% 4/5 EDIT “Jordan was born to be an admired all-star. But as the film so eloquently shows, he worked hard to be the classy superstar that he turned out to be.” – Jam! Movies Jan 13, 2003 Full Review The Siege (1998) 44% 3/5 EDIT “A gripping build up gives way to an incredibly dumb finish.” – Jam! Movies Oct 9, 2002 Full Review American Beauty (1999) 87% 3/5 EDIT “Moves from mirthful to moody and to downright overwrought near the climax.” – Jam! Movies Oct 3, 2002 Full Review Yana's Friends (1999) 100% EDIT “Kaplun (director Arik's wife) as Yana has a knack for maintaining her dignity and her poise while struggling through her humiliating problems.” – Jam! Movies Oct 8, 2001 Full Review The Circle (2000) 94% EDIT “Alarmingly deft at exposing political and religious extremism for what it is.” – Jam! Movies May 21, 2001 Full Review Ginger Snaps (2000) 90% EDIT “A hootin' howler this feature, another in the series of movies mixing tee-hees with the terrors.” – Jam! Movies May 12, 2001 Full Review With a Friend Like Harry... (2000) 96% EDIT “In the end, I was annoyed by the tricks, let down by the results. I felt so used.” – Jam! Movies May 12, 2001 Full Review A Knight's Tale (2001) 59% EDIT “Even if you don't joust, you should appreciate Brian Helgeland's winking post-modern take on the medieval sport in A Knight's Tale.” – Jam! Movies May 11, 2001 Full Review The Forsaken (2001) 9% EDIT “There are serious amounts of vampire letting, and some unintentional chuckles.” – Jam! Movies Apr 30, 2001 Full Review Amores perros (2000) 93% EDIT “A harrowing portrait.” – Jam! Movies Apr 27, 2001 Full Review Kingdom Come (2001) 26% EDIT “Despite some lofty intentions, McHenry (who last directed the melodramatic Jason's Lyric) more or less keeps it sitcom superficial.” – Jam! Movies Apr 11, 2001 Full Review Love, Honour and Obey (2000) 33% EDIT “Has less ain't-it-cool flash than Guy Ritchie's hyperkinetic Snatch, but more satiric soul.” – Jam! Movies Apr 6, 2001 Full Review Pokémon 3: The Movie (2001) 20% EDIT “The kids will be served exactly the same sort of thing they got before -- fancy fluff.” – Jam! Movies Apr 6, 2001 Full Review Series 7 (2001) 72% EDIT “Smith, as the deadly Dawn, holds the feature-length gag together without giving away the joke.” – Jam! Movies Mar 30, 2001 Full Review Tomcats (2001) 13% EDIT “This feature makes Three Stooges Meet Hercules look like a visionary satire.” – Jam! Movies Mar 30, 2001 Full Review The Brothers (2001) 64% EDIT “Looks good and is often easy to digest.” – Jam! Movies Mar 23, 2001 Full Review Kirikou and the Sorceress (1998) 96% 3/5 EDIT “For purists, the animated story is a finely detailed expression of storytelling. For kids, the cartoon might be a little too fancy and not enough fun.” – Jam! Movies Mar 20, 2001 Full Review Enemy at the Gates (2001) 53% EDIT “Erratic, but sometimes thrilling.” – Jam! Movies Mar 16, 2001 Full Review Hamlet (2000) 59% 2/5 EDIT “Hawke is very trying as he spouts Shakespeare's 16th-century wisdom in the setting of 21st century New York in this Hamlet.” – Jam! Movies Mar 12, 2001 Full Review Get Over It (2001) 43% EDIT “This formula film has no chemistry, even if it does deliver a few chuckles.” – Jam! Movies Mar 9, 2001 Full Review The Million Dollar Hotel (2000) 25% EDIT “Pretends to be obscure, but is really just another murder investigation yarn.” – Jam! Movies Feb 9, 2001 Full Review Saving Silverman (2001) 18% EDIT “A seriously flawed goof-fest.” – Jam! Movies Feb 9, 2001 Full Review Malena (2001) 54% EDIT “A film that aspires to do two things at once, but ends up doing not much at all.” – Jam! Movies Feb 7, 2001 Full Review Traffic (2000) 93% EDIT “A film which is sometimes hard to take, but difficult to shake after you've seen it.” – Jam! Movies Dec 27, 2000 Full Review All the Pretty Horses (2000) 32% EDIT “All the beautiful scenery, and all the okay acting, and all the modern-day cowboy imagery just isn't enough.” – Jam! Movies Dec 24, 2000 Full Review
