The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause Review
November 03, 2006 12:22pm ESTOK, so Santa Clause 3 isn’t the stuff classic Christmas movies are made of, but the franchise still manages to keep us warm and toasty, invoking some genuine Yuletide spirit. Hard to believe, but it’s true.

Flushed Away Review
November 03, 2006 12:22pm ESTWell-placed pop-culture references, wry British humor—and some singing slugs—elevate Flushed Away from the typical animated fare, but only slightly.

Flags of Our Fathers Review
October 20, 2006 8:08am ESTAn insightful epic that recasts World War II through a prism of symbols and heroes, Clint Eastwood’s Flags of Our Fathers is a visual treat, combining CGI with an old look in ambitious, thrilling battle scenes. One of the year’s best films.

The Guardian Review
September 29, 2006 6:22am ESTThe Guardian wants more than anything to be a summer blockbuster. But as a fall movie in earnest--clocking in at well over two hours, no less--the movie is stripped bare and revealed as a middling action flick without much action.

John Tucker Must Die Review
July 28, 2006 5:33am ESTIn the typical vein of high school teen movies full of joie de vivre, John Tucker Must Die is unadulterated fluff. Derivative but somewhat amusing.

Little Miss Sunshine Review
July 27, 2006 4:55am ESTEven with “Oscar season” yet to come, it’s safe to say that Little Miss Sunshine is one of the year’s very best. This inspirational, hilariously sad dysfunctional-family-road-trip dramedy offers absolutely everything--except pretension.

Little Man Review
July 14, 2006 6:45am ESTThe Wayans brothers clearly possess talent, but you wouldn’t know it from their latest effort, Little Man. If, and only if, viewers suspend disbelief to the point of an amnesiac will they derive most of the intended laughs.

Click Review
June 23, 2006 7:31am ESTDespite the grandiose concept, there’s nothing here we haven’t seen before, but Adam Sandler can still be relied upon for some decent laughs--and, in Click, maybe even a few tears.

Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties Review
June 16, 2006 5:25am ESTIt’s really unnerving to have to sit through a second Garfield when the first was just so excruciating. But alas, here we are again--and now there’s two of them. Joy.
