    Emmy Award-winning comedy writer Hal Kanter has died at the age of 92.
  • Machete Review
    By: Peter Hall September 02, 2010 4:55am EST
    It’s disappointing that a film with this many decapitations and naked Lindsay Lohans can be so boring.
  • Inglourious Basterds Review
    By: Thomas Leupp August 18, 2009 1:43pm EST
    Quentin Tarantino returns to form with this audacious World War II epic, his most entertaining work since 'Pulp Fiction.'
  • Speed Racer Review
    By: Kit Bowen May 09, 2008 5:41am EST
    Filled with revved engines and vroom! visuals, Speed Racer is the perfect movie for video-gaming kids--but for others it may just cause migraines.

    Even though it’s a retread, The Invasion’s point of view on body snatching still elicits the right kind of creepy paranoia.
  • Stardust Review
    By: Robert Sims August 13, 2007 11:38am EST
    Stardust is so witty, enchanting and romantic, it’s destined to become The Princess Bride of the Harry Potter generation.

    By: Kit Bowen July 23, 2007 10:07am EST
    Less flash, more grit, The Order of the Phoenix is definitely the most introspective of the Harry Potter movies. If you’re expecting fast-paced wizardry action at every turn, however, you might be disappointed.
  • In the Land of Women Review
    By: Betsy Bozdech April 20, 2007 4:59am EST
    Wistful and uneven, Jonathan Kasdan's In the Land of Women is like Garden State by way of a John Hughes movie--but less engaging than either.
  • Disturbia Review
    By: Fred Topel April 17, 2007 12:23pm EST
    For a high-concept thriller with an oh-so-clever name, Disturbia actually packs a real story into this teen fright fest.
