Posted Mar 27, 2004  Edit critic review
The Passion of the Christ (2004) Blake Davis The entire event is gut-wrenching, but Mel Gibson makes a movie that gives you the guts without the wrench. His Jesus is a whipping post.

Posted Jan 27, 2004  Edit critic review

Posted Jan 27, 2004  Edit critic review

Posted Dec 19, 2003  Edit critic review
2/5
Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989) Blake Davis The only thing worse than letting William Shatner act in a movie is letting William Shatner direct one.
Posted Dec 19, 2003  Edit critic review
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003) Blake Davis This unique series of films has reminded us that it is still possible to change the world, and that it is achieved in simple gestures of belief, love, and personal sacrifice.
Posted Dec 19, 2003  Edit critic review
4/5
Sweet Liberty (1986) Blake Davis A sweet, funny comedy about the perils of being a writer and making a movie. An underrated charmer.
Posted Dec 15, 2003  Edit critic review
5/5
True Believer (1989) Blake Davis One of the best courtroom dramas ever made, and a movie that almost nobody knows about. A terrific picture.
Posted Dec 15, 2003  Edit critic review
21 Grams (2003) Blake Davis The movie crushes its characters under its foot, then steps back and wants you to look at the mess and admire it.
Posted Dec 15, 2003  Edit critic review
4/5
Ghostbusters II (1989) Blake Davis A loose, assured sequel that has the breezy ambition of simply being fun and likable. And it is.
Posted Dec 15, 2003  Edit critic review
Bad Santa (2003) Blake Davis One of the most wonderful pieces of anarchy to come out of Hollywood in years; it has the jittery feel of a movie that's ahead of it's time.
Posted Dec 15, 2003  Edit critic review
Alien (1979) Blake Davis A beautiful, quiet, and amazingly poetic film visually that lets its shots linger and build a mood of genuine isolation and dread.
Posted Nov 04, 2003  Edit critic review
5/5
Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse (1991) Blake Davis One of the best documentaries ever made, more fascinating an exploration of obsession than the film it's about.
Posted Nov 04, 2003  Edit critic review
4/5
The Serpent and the Rainbow (1988) Blake Davis A scary, hallucinogenic and underrated horror movie, and one of Wes Craven's best.
Posted Nov 04, 2003  Edit critic review
5/5
Dazed and Confused (1993) Blake Davis Maybe the best movie ever made about American teenagers, casual and funny in a totally unique way.
Posted Nov 04, 2003  Edit critic review
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003) Blake Davis Given the opportunity to work with such classic material, all the director manages to do with it is to turn the whole movie into a shallow calling card for his visual skills.
Posted Nov 04, 2003  Edit critic review
4/5
The Breakfast Club (1985) Blake Davis A teen classic and one of the holy five John Hughes films from the 80's.
Posted Oct 07, 2003  Edit critic review
Lost in Translation (2003) Blake Davis Before you know it, Sophia Coppola has wrapped you in a warm, fluffy blanket and you'll find yourself looking out the window wondering about what's going to happen with your life.
Posted Oct 07, 2003  Edit critic review
4/5
Back to the Beach (1987) Blake Davis A bouncy, high-energy spoof and one of the best movie musicals of the last couple of decades.
Posted Oct 07, 2003  Edit critic review
Anything Else (2003) Blake Davis The whole movie feels like a warm-up, a dusting off of cobwebs, like Woody Allen has just woken from a long nap and is finally ready to get back to work.
Posted Oct 07, 2003  Edit critic review
4/5
Stormy Monday (1988) Blake Davis A strong exercise in mood early in Mike Figgis's career.
Posted Oct 07, 2003  Edit critic review
Thirteen (2003) Blake Davis It's a two-hour gut-wrench that just keeps tightening, and ends in a place that doesn't make you feel much better, like watching an after-school special gone horribly wrong.
Posted Oct 07, 2003  Edit critic review
3/5
The Blob (1988) Blake Davis A fun, cheesy remake from writer Frank Darabont, who gets the tone just right.
Posted Sep 12, 2003  Edit critic review

Posted Sep 12, 2003  Edit critic review
3/5
The Stepfather (1987) Blake Davis An inventive, overlooked, classic slasher film from the 80's.
Posted Sep 12, 2003  Edit critic review
Freddy vs. Jason (2003) Blake Davis Played for laughs, the two horror icons have been castrated. No longer scary, they're like a Las Vegas lounge act, sandwiched somewhere between Celine Dion and Debbie Reynolds on the strip.
Posted Sep 12, 2003  Edit critic review
3/5
Black Widow (1987) Blake Davis A smart, twisty, stylish thriller with a good Debra Winger performance.
Posted Sep 12, 2003  Edit critic review
3/5
Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994) Blake Davis A smart self-referential horror movie that plays the references for scares, not laughs.
Posted Sep 12, 2003  Edit critic review
Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003) Blake Davis It's a great, swirling action movie, but it's so heavy on plot twists and characters that the whole thing feels like a delirious jumble.
Posted Sep 12, 2003  Edit critic review
4/5
Tucker: The Man and His Dream (1988) Blake Davis One of Francis Ford Coppola's great movies that slipped through the cracks in the late 80's.
Posted Jul 14, 2003  Edit critic review
4/5
Red Rock West (1993) Blake Davis A great example of western film noir from director John Dahl, a modern day master of these types of films.
Posted Jul 14, 2003  Edit critic review
3/5
A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master (1988) Blake Davis A good sequel in the series directed by trash auteur Renny Harlin with just the right flair.
Posted Jul 14, 2003  Edit critic review
4/5
The Frighteners (1996) Blake Davis An incredibly underrated scare-comedy from Peter Jackson that deserves a much wider audience.
Posted Jul 14, 2003  Edit critic review
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003) Blake Davis An efficient, solid action picture, but one that causes the Terminator series to lose a little of it's luster. James Cameron's ideas are sorely missed.
