This Is Spinal Tap (1984) 98% EDIT “"There is a fine line between stupid and clever," says Spinal Tap's Michael McKean. Director Rob Reiner mostly keeps This Is Spinal Tap on the clever side of that invisible line.” – Miami Herald Sep 9, 2025 Full Review Mighty Joe Young (1998) 55% 3/4 EDIT “This modern Mighty Joe Young is mighty good fun. ” – Miami Herald Jan 5, 2023 Full Review Miles Ahead (2016) 74% 3/4 EDIT “Ridiculous? To be sure. Engaging? You bet.” – Miami Herald Apr 21, 2016 Full Review Love & Mercy (2014) 90% 3.5/4 EDIT “Director Bill Pohlad's decidedly unconventional Brian Wilson biopic Love & Mercy, which takes its title from an overlooked 1988 solo single from the Beach Boys' co-founder, is the Pet Sounds of biopics.” – Miami Herald Jun 4, 2015 Full Review Sound City (2013) 100% 3/4 EDIT “Dave Grohl remains unflappable as a first-time director in his entertaining and informative documentary Sound City, a loving tribute to a defunct Van Nuys recording studio.” – Miami Herald Jan 31, 2013 Full Review Cirque du Soleil: Worlds Away (2012) 43% 2/4 EDIT “The technically well-made movie simply can't replicate the live experience of a Cirque show, and at just over 90 minutes, Worlds Away still feels long.” – Miami Herald Dec 20, 2012 Full Review Glee the Concert Movie (2011) 60% 2/4 EDIT “Glee: 3D is not good enough, it's not smart enough, and doggone it, well, you get the gist.” – Miami Herald Aug 11, 2011 Full Review Beastly (2011) 20% 3/4 EDIT “Beastly, for all its potential pitfalls, works better than it has any right to.” – Miami Herald Mar 2, 2011 Full Review Beyond the Sea (2004) 43% EDIT “Watching Kevin Spacey's hilariously inept recreation of Bobby Darin's life in Beyond the Sea brings to mind the old Neil Diamond- Laurence Olivier remake of The Jazz Singer.” – Miami Herald Dec 30, 2004 Full Review Lightning in a Bottle (2004) 88% 3/4 EDIT “Some of the blues performances here are rousingly hot and could make believers out of the staunchest classical music snob.” – Miami Herald Dec 3, 2004 Full Review Tom Dowd & the Language of Music (2003) 90% 3.5/4 EDIT “Visually appealing.” – Miami Herald Aug 13, 2004 Full Review Mysteries of Egypt (1998) 77% 3.5/4 EDIT “” – Miami Herald Aug 1, 2003 Full Review T-Rex: Back to the Cretaceous (1998) 71% 3/4 EDIT “” – Miami Herald Jul 31, 2003 Full Review CyberWorld (2000) 55% 3/4 EDIT “” – Miami Herald Jul 31, 2003 Full Review The Guru (2002) 57% 1.5/4 EDIT “Charmless and trite.” – Miami Herald Jan 30, 2003 Full Review Star Trek: Nemesis (2002) 37% 2.5/4 EDIT “Devotees of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan will feel a nagging sense of deja vu, and the grandeur of the best Next Generation episodes is lacking.” – Miami Herald Dec 13, 2002 Full Review Die Another Day (2002) 56% 3/4 EDIT “Die Another Day is stylish and state of the art, and Bond aficionados will love the anniversary homages to previous films.” – Miami Herald Nov 22, 2002 Full Review The Country Bears (2002) 29% 2.5/4 EDIT “Warm, funny and works as a musical, too.” – Miami Herald Jul 25, 2002 Full Review Ultimate X: The Movie (2002) 72% 3/4 EDIT “Rad fun for sports fans and sedentary folks alike.” – Miami Herald May 9, 2002 Full Review Grateful Dawg (2000) 70% EDIT “If you come to Grateful Dawg to hear a lot of wonderful music, you'll walk away satisfied.” – Miami Herald Dec 6, 2001 Full Review A Hard Day's Night (1964) 98% EDIT “The music video by which all other music videos must be judged. And none top it.” – Miami Herald Jan 19, 2001 Full Review The Iron Giant (1999) 96% EDIT “The Iron Giant is filled with imaginative characters, sharply mounted and sweet without being cloying.” – Miami Herald Jan 1, 2000 Full Review The Crew (2000) 20% EDIT “The problem is the movie's witless script ... can never decide whether it wants to be Grumpy Old Men III or GoodFellas II and it comes up short on both counts.” – Miami Herald Jan 1, 2000 Full Review
