Georgia Rule Review
May 11, 2007 5:37am ESTStrong performances and its R rating help keep Georgia Rule from being a completely overemotional, Lifetime TV mush fest—but only slightly.

The Painted Veil Review
December 20, 2006 4:28am ESTThe Painted Veil is a lushly photographed, costume-drama actor's piece, soggy in the second half from melodrama. It tries to unmask misguided attraction between two lovers in 1920's China, but it unravels under its own conceits.

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.

16 Blocks Review
March 03, 2006 7:25am ESTOne downtrodden detective looking for redemption. One star witness set to testify against corrupt cops who are gunning for him. 16 Blocks to the courthouse. You get the picture.

Walk the Line Review
November 18, 2005 4:24am ESTWalk the Line arguably boasts two of the most dazzling, Oscar-worthy performances of the year from Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon. It's just a shame the biopic isn't as brave. After all, Johnny Cash wasn't "The Man in Black" just for his wardrobe alone.

The Greatest Game Ever Played Review
September 30, 2005 7:34am ESTGranted, it's a sports movie about golf. But with winning performances, fancy camerawork and a classic root-for-the-little-guy scenario, The Greatest Game Ever Played tees off with the best of them.
