Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001) 52% 4/5 EDIT “What do you want, some meditation on the human condition?” – Film Threat Jul 22, 2006 Full Review Playing by Heart (1998) 62% 3/5 EDIT “The brightest spot belongs to Angelina Jolie, who is so compelling to watch she has chemistry with the furniture.” – Film Threat Jun 3, 2006 Full Review Nurse Betty (2000) 83% 3.5/5 EDIT “Despite cringing at many of Betty's deluded interactions with the residents of her final destination and the director's seeming lack of faith in the believability of many of the scenes, Nurse Betty still turns out to be entertaining.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Stir of Echoes (1999) 70% 4/5 EDIT “It's nice to see he relied on more than heavy-handed filmmaking and a twist ending. I just hope audiences go for a supernatural thriller that's a little messier and doesn't feel the need to claw at their heart for two hours.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Boiler Room (2000) 66% 3.5/5 EDIT “Ribisi does a fine job opposite a typically goofy Jaime Kennedy, a typically sociopathic Scott Cann, and a surprisingly likeable Vin Diesel.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Star Trek: Insurrection (1998) 54% 3.5/5 EDIT “This is really just a pretty good episode of the series, which is not really a bad thing.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Charlie's Angels (2000) 68% 3.5/5 EDIT “The most fun movie of the year.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Grosse Pointe Blank (1997) 82% 2.5/5 EDIT “It's the best date film I've seen in a long time: at least 12 people die.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Holy Man (1998) 12% 1/5 EDIT “What does Hollywood teach us here? Materialism BAD! Television BAD! Media BAD!” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Hedwig and the Angry Inch (2001) 92% 5/5 EDIT “And they said the movie musical was dead.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review A Bug's Life (1998) 92% 4.5/5 EDIT “A classic. It's better than the last several Disney animated films. PIXAR has stated they want to be the second successful feature animation studio. They're already there.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review One Hour Photo (2002) 81% 3/5 EDIT “This story begs for a harder focus, the kind of thing Stanley Kubrick was always good at, at least until he got a little too focused. What saves the film is Robin Williams in a very atypical role.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Cast Away (2000) 88% 2.5/5 EDIT “It's really kind of ironic. The old Chuck's life is ruled by the clock. Once he's learned better, we don't get enough time with him because the author's decided it was time to go. Oh, well.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Chuck & Buck (2000) 85% 4/5 EDIT “Of all the films to premiere at Sundance 2000, there is one movie that best represented what indie film is supposed to be.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Random Hearts (1999) 18% 1.5/5 EDIT “My God! What happened to Sydney Pollack?” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Mission: Impossible II (2000) 58% 2.5/5 EDIT “It doesn't matter how many extra months the director spends creating impressive action scenes. If the audience is not emotionally invested in the fate of the heroes, no amount of explosions will make them care.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Titus (1999) 69% 4/5 EDIT “It's amazing how enjoyable Shakespeare can be when Kenneth Branagh isn't involved.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Topsy-Turvy (1999) 90% 3.5/5 EDIT “The real magic of this film is in the way most of the characters skillfully navigate their way around each other's sizable but fragile egos.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review The Tailor of Panama (2001) 75% 2/5 EDIT “” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Con Air (1997) 59% 3/5 EDIT “This is a big, silly film. Is it full of explosions and one-liners? Of course. Is it entertaining? Of course.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Saving Private Ryan (1998) 94% 5/5 EDIT “Neither wholly condemning war, nor spouting patriotism, Spielberg shows us the price we pay.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Sweet and Lowdown (1999) 77% 3.5/5 EDIT “Focusing on the story, the auteur explores his two favorite topics, jazz and s----heels, to enter the new millenium in style.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review The Cell (2000) 46% 4/5 EDIT “It's excellent.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review The Iron Giant (1999) 96% 4.5/5 EDIT “GO SEE THIS FILM, NOW.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Cruel Intentions (1999) 54% 2/5 EDIT “In the end, the whole shebang comes off like a bunch of snotty, rich white kids screwing each other and screwing each other over.” – Film Threat Dec 6, 2005 Full Review
