Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room
(2005)
|
Annabelle Robertson
|
Even without the constant George W. Bush bashing, you can't help but feel that this film has a major agenda.

Pooh's Heffalump Movie

Annabelle Robertson

Which doesn't mean that some children won't sit through it and enjoy it. But for most adults, it won't be very interesting, and certainly not as entertaining as the original film.

Million Dollar Baby
(2004)
|
Holly McClure
|
Swank never overacts, always hits her marks and has a plausible Southern accent -- a rarity. She is compelling, lovable and, quite simply, mesmerizing. Freeman is just as convincing in his role.

From Justin to Kelly
(2003)
|
Holly McClure
|
This movie is really a perfect example of a new era of Hollywood capitalism and a brilliant marketing strategy: take two unknown contestants who try out for a singing contest, win the top two titles, get singing contracts and then give them a movie deal.

I barely laughed at this movie. It had a sort of sad undertone running all the way through it which kept it too serious to be a spoofy comedy and too silly to be taken serious.

Although there are some clever and funny scenes in this movie and it is visually a wonder for kids to behold, there is still something 'dark' that takes all of the fun out of it.
