3/4
Dead Man Down (2013) Kam Williams Though the wheels gradually come off the increasingly-preposterous production, all is forgiven on account of the convoluted adventure's compelling storyline, arresting special f/x, and satisfying, if farfetched resolution.

3.5/4
Cadillac Records (2008) Kam Williams Highly recommended musical melodrama revisits rise of Chess Records, despite the glaring omission of Aretha who recorded her very first album with legendary company in 1956. How about showing the Queen of Soul a little R-E-S-P-E-C-T?

3.5/4
Hallam Foe (2007) Kam Williams Jamie Bell in his most memorable outing since Billy Elliot, as a Peeping Tom acting upon Oedipal urges in a dysfunctional family drama from Scotland.

1/4
The Exiles (1961) Kam Williams Best if approached as a nostalgic curiosity shot a half century ago rather than as a conventional flick offering a satisfying cinematic experience.

4/4
Forgiveness (2004) Kam Williams More truth than reconciliation in post-Apartheid revenge flick.

4/4
I'm Through With White Girls (The Inevitable Undoing of Jay Brooks) (2007) Kam Williams Alternately entertaining and enlightening, this hilariously funny flick is proof positive that it's possible to shoot a sophisticated romantic romp on a shoe-string budget.

4/4
Constantine's Sword (2007) Kam Williams A powerful documentary which makes the case that the faith-based fanaticism that has destabilized the planet has been fueled as much by the West as by radical Islam.

3/4
Blackout (2007) Kam Williams A well-crafted, slice-of-life saga which amply illustrates how easily matters might go from bad to worse in the already-overburdened inner-city when disaster strikes in the 'hood.

2/4
Semi-Pro (2008) Kam Williams True to the Will Ferrell formula, going for the joke trumps plot and character development at every turn, with the trademark humor coming via nonsensical slapstick and such Seventies-era fashion statements as cotton-candy afros and loathsome leisure suit

3.5/4
Excellent Cadavers (2005) Kam Williams Bittersweet bio-pic pays tribute to two a couple of Italian prosecutors crazy enough to take on the mob.

4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days (2007) Kam Williams The Un-Juno.

1/4
Good Luck Chuck (2007) Kam Williams A transparent excuse for a constant parade of topless females eager to assume a compromising position. The only thing missing was a cheesy porn soundtrack.

2/4
The Perfect Holiday (2007) Kam Williams Be grateful that Gabrielle Union and Morris Chestnut have the wherewithal to elevate a mediocre script.

1/4
Mr. Bean's Holiday (2007) Kam Williams Britain's most-beloved mute behaving like a buffoon while vacationing in France.

1/4
Redacted (2007) Kam Williams Perhaps Brian De Palma was too blinded by his undoubtedly fervent feelings about the Bush Administration's bungling of the invasion and occupation to make an honest appraisal of his message movie's abundance of technical flaws.

2.5/4
The Kingdom (2007) Kam Williams A combination flick, part psychological thriller, part pyrotechnic patriotic spectacular, which works somehow despite considerable conceptual flaws. Sweet revenge in the desert!

4/4
Desert Bayou (2007) Kam Williams A damning documentary which exposes FEMA's wholesale failings while depicting a nation still deep in denial and willing to look the other way despite the ongoing suffering of a long-marginalized segment of society.

3/4
Grindhouse Presents: Death Proof (2007) Kam Williams Deliberately designed to look like a low-grade B-flick from the Fifties, this slasher adventure from Quentin Tarantino is a guaranteed treat for that rare film fan nostalgic about the worst era in cinema.

4/4
49 Up (2005) Kam Williams Time-lapse cinematography taken at seven year intervals.

2/4
Confessions of a Call Girl (2006) Kam Williams Confessions of a Call Girl lands in this critic's 'It's so bad it's good' file because the characters are so laughably cartoonish and because Tamala Jones never gets tired of baring her curvaceous booty and cannonball implants for the camera.

4/4
Superbad (2007) Kam Williams A relentlessly-raunchy cross between American Pie and Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, a laugh out loud teensploit that's every bit as funny as either of those classics.

1/4
Unaccompanied Minors (2006) Kam Williams Predigested drivel.
Posted Aug 10, 2007  Edit critic review
2/4
Crossing the Line (2006) Kam Williams Not exactly compelling stuff, especially if you caught the recent 60 Minutes segment about this traitor which covered substantially the same ground.
Posted Aug 07, 2007  Edit critic review
4/4
The Singer (2006) Kam Williams Certain to evoke a few tears from Fania fans with feelings of nostalgia for the bygone era.

4/4
Summer '04 (2006) Kam Williams As twisted and steamy a psychological thriller as you could hope to find, provided you're not put off by the pedophilia coursing through this intriguing romantic roundelay.

I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry (2007) Kam Williams Adam Sandler and Kevin James ought to be ashamed to be associated with the cinematic equivalent of gay bashing.

2/4
Last Stand (2007) Kam Williams To the extent that you can ignore the jokes in The Last Stand, you'll likely appreciate the rest of Parr's otherwise well-crafted, multi-layered mystery.

4/4
Dynamite Warrior (2006) Kam Williams Puts the fun back into Kung Fu. And Zen some.

4/4
Flying: Confessions of a Free Woman (2006) Kam Williams Curiously, like a compelling cross of Annie Hall and Erica Jong, it is the globetrotting Fox who emerges as the most empathetic and elegant figure by film's end, in spite of her warts-and-all confessional style.
Posted Jul 05, 2007  Edit critic review
4/4
Ghosts of Cité Soleil (2006) Kam Williams Fascinating stuff, but this portrait of these scary 'altar boys' is probably the last thing that Haiti's Board of Tourism wants to see in circulation.

3.5/4
Transformers (2007) Kam Williams Gets this critic's seal of approval as another overblown Michael Bay extravaganza, for it succeeds in bringing a cornucopia of beloved robots to life for a concatenation of epic battles worthy of a bombastic summer blockbuster.

4/4
Live Free or Die Hard (2007) Kam Williams If you only see one film this summer, you need to get out more. But make this the one you choose.
Posted Jun 29, 2007  Edit critic review
2/4
Gray Matters (2006) Kam Williams Despite being bogged down by several distracting, extended dance numbers, this zany farce has just enough momentum and surprises along the way to hold one's interest for the duration. But it'll help immeasurably if you're a devotee of daytime soap operas.

1.5/4
Evan Almighty (2007) Kam Williams A faith-based, corporate-sponsored, family comedy for folks who don't mind having a familiar Biblical tale about sin overhauled into a contemporary allegory about saving the environment.

4/4
Ali's Dozen (2007) Kam Williams Film focuses on the pivotal round in 12 different fights which best help highlight Muhammad ali's brilliance inside the ring, where he exhibited a guile and grace unmatched either before or since.

0/4
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007) Kam Williams The worst comic book adaptation since, well, since Fantastic Four 1. An unimaginative disaster that takes forever to end, as if the celluloid is being stretched by Mr. Fantastic to make the movie last ten times longer than ninety minutes.

1.5/4
The Method (2005) Kam Williams Ostensibly-inspired by The Apprentice, what this reality movie's missing most is a cocky host with a cotton candy-colored comb-over. How do you say, 'You're fired!' in Spanish.

1/4
Flip the Script (2005) Kam Williams Pardon me for expecting African-American fare to be far more sophisticated than the new millennium's equivalent of Amos & Andy, complete with Kingfish-quality buffoonery and an array of other degenerate coons.

2/4
Rain (2006) Kam Williams A formulaic soap opera likely to resonate only with fans of romance novels, though men might enjoy the multi-faceted performance of the magnetic Brooklyn Sudano.

3/4
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (2007) Kam Williams Who cares that this blockbuster is an incoherent, overplotted mess, when it comes stocked with a charismatic protagonist plus enough swashbuckling action and spooky special f/x to make you forget the fact that the story is impossible to keep straight?
Posted May 27, 2007  Edit critic review

A/K/A Tommy Chong (2006) Kam Williams A very scary documentary illustrating the carte blanche accorded Big Brother by the Patriot Act

Spark (1999) Kam Williams Shot on the cheap in what appears to be an abandoned ghost town, it looks like the only thing they bothered to budget for was cuss words.

Provoked (2007) Kam Williams Courtroom drama about the landmark decision which established Battered Women's Syndrome as a defense, at least in England, where relief for an abused wife is now just a Molotov cocktail away.
