  • We Are Marshall Review
    By: Fred Topel December 22, 2006 4:43am EST
    You know how it begins and you know how it ends, but We Are Marshall will still make a sports fan cheer. Its still the same old triumph against the odds, but it's a solid version of that.
  • The Pursuit of Happyness Review
    By: Brian Marder December 20, 2006 4:28am EST
    While The Pursuit of Happyness could very easily be subtitled The Pursuit of Sappyness, the terrific father-son dynamic between Will and Jaden Smith is enough to make for an effective tearjerker—barely.
  • Fast Food Nation Review
    By: Fred Topel November 17, 2006 6:07am EST
    Chow down on this taste of life inside the meat packing and “Happy Meal” Fast Food Nation.
  • Marie Antoinette Review
    By: Scott Huver October 20, 2006 8:07am EST
    One part lavish—and revisionist—history of one of France’s most reviled monarchs, one part ode to classic teen-girl-alienation of the John Hughes variety, Marie Antoinette is a surprisingly sumptuous slice of cinematic cake.
  • Little Miss Sunshine Review
    By: Brian Marder July 27, 2006 4:55am EST
    Even 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.
  • My Super Ex-Girlfriend Review
    By: Mike Szymanski July 21, 2006 5:12am EST
    How can a movie with such talented performers and such an original concept seem so entirely like a re-tread? Help them Superman!
  • You, Me and Dupree Review
    By: Kit Bowen July 14, 2006 5:32am EST
    You, Me and Dupree manages to keep us mildly amused, mostly due to Owen Wilson’s infectious charm. But unlike some of his other comrades in comedy, a lot of Owen doesn’t necessarily spell success.
  • A Scanner Darkly Review
    By: Brian Marder July 07, 2006 8:22am EST
    A Scanner Darkly is capable of inducing euphoria if viewers focus on one element of splendor--the acting, concept, dialogue or animation--per viewing. (It might take as many viewings to firmly grasp the plot, as well.) But trying to take it all in at once can lead to sensory overload and, even worse, boredom.
  • Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties Review
    By: Kit Bowen June 16, 2006 5:25am EST
    It’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.
  • United 93 Review
    By: Kit Bowen April 28, 2006 7:34am EST
    Be prepared. Writer/director Paul Greengrass’ incredibly well made United 93 is overwhelming, telling a story we’ve all come to know so very well. It will be one of the most affecting movies you’ll ever see--if you can bring yourself to see it, that is.
