Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo (2005)
9%
1.5/4
EDIT
“Schneider, who co-wrote the script, has succeeded in making a film that's nearly review-proof: Most of the dialogue -- packed with names for fictitious sex acts and the gigolos who perfect them -- is unrepeatable in a newspaper.” –

Bubba Ho-Tep (2002)
78%
2.5/4
EDIT
“Bubba Ho-Tep succeeds as goofy-yet- tender wish fulfillment, offering an Elvis who tries to redeem his self-indulgent persona and become a hero. It fails as the sort of Campbell vehicle that wears out VCRs and haunts midnight-movie houses.” –

Cowboy Bebop: The Movie (2001)

2.5/4
EDIT
“The movie, with room to gallop through nearly two hours and an R rating, often just kicks around in the stable.” –

Chaos (2001)

3/4
EDIT
“The men, filled with brutality and neglect, make for rather obvious targets, yet we come to care about the women in their lives beyond any agenda Chaos might have.” –

3/4
EDIT

The Shape of Things (2003)
64%
2.5/4
EDIT
“Intellectually, Shape is a tour de force that can't be dismissed merely for the coldness it makes us feel. Artistically, it should have been called 'Abandon Hope All Ye Who Enter Here.'” –

3.5/4
