Charlie Bartlett Review
February 22, 2008 4:45am ESTMuch like its title character, Charlie Bartlett just doesn’t fit in with its peer group (teen movies and psychology dramedies). And both the character and movie go to show you that sometimes it’s good--in this case very good--not to fit in.

Meet the Spartans Review
January 28, 2008 4:40am ESTThere’s nothing funny here--only sad. Sad in the sense that enough people will see Meet the Spartans to warrant a continuation of this franchise. And until that next spoof comes, there will not be a worse movie. It’s just not possible.

Hostel Part II Review
June 08, 2007 1:45pm ESTHostel: Part II gives new (and quite literal) meaning to a “bloodbath”--but not much else. Don’t worry, though. It doesn’t mean you won’t still walk out of there wanting to perform a castration or two.

November 10, 2006 1:14pm ESTStranger Than Fiction has the pedigree to be quirkily great. For some people, that will be enough to trick themselves into loving it. But the non-fiction here is that the greatness begins and ends with the movie's marvelous title.

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.

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.

Date Movie Review
February 17, 2006 9:22am ESTDate Movie is as crude, tasteless and cheap as a movie the Farrelly brothers might’ve made during adolescence. And since the year has only just begun, let’s tack on 2005 and proclaim this the worst movie of the last year and a quarter… Oh, what the hell—the last decade.
