  • Queen of the Damned Review
    By: Kit Bowen February 22, 2002 9:01am EST
    With a killer performance by its leading vampire and a last appearance by the late Aaliyah, Queen of the Damned should appeal to the music video generation and rake in some healthy box office numbers.
  • Scotland, PA Review
    By: Doris Toumarkine February 08, 2002 2:05pm EST
    Forget those Shakespearean themes of greed, lust and ambition and enjoy a fun package of satire, nostalgia, amusing performances and rousing '70s hits. And hold the fries. In its fractured Bardian tale of husband-and-wife greasy spoon drones who murder their way out of hamburger joint hell into fast food mini-moguldom, this comedy, until it finally runs out of steam (if not plot), consistently entertains and tickles.
  • Gosford Park Review
    By: Kit Bowen December 26, 2001 5:46am EST
    Gosford Park is entertaining enough, but if you're expecting another Altman masterpiece, you'll be disappointed.
  • The Majestic Review
    By: Stacie Hougland December 21, 2001 6:50am EST
    Audiences a half-century ago might have had a hard time swallowing this kind of cornball mush--certainly modern-day audiences won't stomach it.
  • Ocean's Eleven Review
    By: Noah Davis December 07, 2001 10:18am EST
    Like the original, Ocean's Eleven is a lark, but unlike the 1960 version, it's no throwaway; with Steven Soderbergh directing, the film is stylish and smart, even if it lacks a little soul
  • Shallow Hal Review
    By: Guylaine Cadorette November 08, 2001 12:51pm EST
    Shallow Hal is not the knee-slapper audiences have come to expect from the Farrelly brothers, but has some clever lines and a sweet, albeit clichéd, moral.

  • Christina Tops Britney; Santana Wins Everything Else at Grammys
    By: Joal Ryan August 16, 2001 10:13am EST
    SANTA MONICA, Calif., Feb. 23, 2000 -- Meeska, mooska, mousekasurprise! Santana Since the boring part of tonight's 42d Annual Grammy Awards was waiting around to see how many paperweights sentimental baby-boomer favorite Carlos Santana would be presented with by sentimental baby-boomer voters (eight -- the most since Michael Jackson's "Thriller" party in 1983), the fun part of the night was watching which ex-Mouseketeer would be crowned best new artist. And the funnest (well, most fun) was w
  • Billboard Music Awards
    By: Ellen Kim August 15, 2001 10:04am EST
    LAS VEGAS, Nev., Dec. 6, 2000 -- Call it musical "Smackdown." The 2000 Billboard Music Awards featured some of the rowdiest wrestling and name-calling not associated with the WWF. And that's just from the hosts. Held Tuesday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas and hosted by 'N Sync and actress Kathy Griffin, the telecast kicked off with the pep-rally cattle call "Who Let the Dogs Out" performed by the Baha Men and soon turned into an episodic comedy with some well-engineered face-of
