Megiddo (2001) |
Once the action starts to kick in, Megiddo morphs, minute by minute and scene by scene, into a Mystery Science Theater smorgasbord. - Mr. Showbiz

Max Keeble's Big Move (2001) |
If there's no way to avoid seeing Keeble's Big Move, take along a book, ideally a hefty one. With the proper arm speed and angle of release, you can probably nail the projectionist. - Mr. Showbiz

Hearts in Atlantis (2001) |

Two Can Play That Game (2001) |
A feature-length movie demands a story, and this one barely has the substance of an anecdote. - Mr. Showbiz

The Musketeer (2001) |
In its fast-food way, this is an acceptable addition to the all-for-one canon. - Mr. Showbiz

The Curse of the Jade Scorpion (2001) |
A marvelously witty period comedy, consisting in equal measures of lighthearted spoofery and fond homage. - Mr. Showbiz

Rat Race (2001) |
Zucker and Breckman get more than enough humor out of sharp set pieces and smartly scripted character clashes to sprint all the way to the finish line. - Mr. Showbiz

American Pie 2 (2001) |
What was passably cute the first time seems much more puerile and shrill here. - Mr. Showbiz

Original Sin (2001) |
The script rambles between airy pomposities ... and atrocious ribaldries. - Mr. Showbiz

Jurassic Park III (2001) |
A sturdy, watchable, Saturday-afternoon-serial throwback that teems with cool creatures. But it's too prefab to really deliver on the promise of 'intense sci-fi terror' written into the movie's MPAA rating description. - Mr. Showbiz

The Score (2001) |
Like a diet cola, The Score has fizz, but very little savor and no calories to speak of. - Mr. Showbiz

Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within (2001) |
Has the capacity to inspire awe, but it's still a rough draft. - Mr. Showbiz

Kiss of the Dragon (2001) |
You, the average taxpaying citizen, need to see this movie like Bill Gates needs to win the lottery. - Mr. Showbiz

|
Scary Movie 2 (2001) |
The gags are fresh (so to speak), but the tone and execution are oh-so-exactly the same -- as McSequels go, this one's a pice de rsistance of satisfied expectations. - Mr. Showbiz

Crazy/Beautiful (2001) |
A teenage movie that trusts its audience -- it sounds crazy, but it's actually quite beautiful. - Mr. Showbiz

Dr. Dolittle 2 (2001) |
For an enterprise so soullessly commercial on its face, Murphy's second outing as the M.D. who talks to the animals is surprisingly engaging. - Mr. Showbiz

Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001) |
It has a sense of wonder. - Mr. Showbiz

Swordfish (2001) |
The story is mostly about what happens to various objects (plate glass windows, SUVs, senators) when they are riddled with bullets or detonated by explosives. - Mr. Showbiz

Pearl Harbor (2001) |
After the first few minutes, it's just fireworks and bodies in motion. - Mr. Showbiz

Shrek (2001) |
Shrek's self-reflexive silliness is in nearly perfect counterpoint to its giddy spirit of adventure, friendship, and romance. - Mr. Showbiz

The Low Down (2000) |
Has an aura of honest observation that engages even when almost nothing is happening on-screen. - Mr. Showbiz

One Night at McCool's (2001) |
Proceeds from a premise that's as simplistic as a seventh-grade gym class joke. - Mr. Showbiz

Harry, He's Here to Help (2000) |

Brigham City (2001) |
Moviegoers of any (or no) religious persuasion can share in the simple satisfaction of [Dutcher's] tense, well-spun murder mystery. - Mr. Showbiz

Freddy Got Fingered (2001) |
Too often, scenes crop up that have nothing to do with anything beyond Green's consuming need to be as outrageous as he can be. - Mr. Showbiz

Joe Dirt (2001) |
To see it is to sit through scene after scene like the one in which a hulking oil rigger spattered with crude takes a leak on some smoldering ashes for no reason at all. - Mr. Showbiz

Kingdom Come (2001) |
It's all too easy to see through the movie to its plot gears, and all too evident where the grinding of those gears is taking us. - Mr. Showbiz

Along Came a Spider (2001) |
On some level, nearly every thriller asks viewers to suspend their disbelief. Along Came a Spider expects you to kick yours in the nuts, break both its legs, and not make hospital visits. You can't even send flowers. - Mr. Showbiz

Exit Wounds (2001) |
In fairness, the movie is more or less competent for being what it is. Of course, I could say the same of most brick walls -- but I'd hardly recommend that you pay eight bucks to sit in front of one for two hours. - Mr. Showbiz

Company Man (2000) |

When Brendan Met Trudy (2000) |
Doyle and director Kieron J. Walsh have such a fine old time with all this winky-wink business that they seem to only sporadically recall the plight of star-crossed lovers Brendan ... and Trudy. - Mr. Showbiz

Valentine (2001) |
Even by the thoroughly undemanding standards of its burned-out genre, Valentine is vacuous, tedious, and perfunctory. - Mr. Showbiz
