  • Transformers: Dark of the Moon Review
    By: Thomas Leupp June 28, 2011 6:39pm EST
    Summer-movie spectacle at its purest.
  • Secretariat Review
    By: Thomas Leupp October 06, 2010 4:51pm EST
    This overwrought horse-racing drama never makes it out of the gate.
  • Bratz Review
    By: Kit Bowen August 03, 2007 5:36am EST
    The derivative Bratz is a great big pink marshmallow of a movie, aimed at one demographic only: tween girls into fashion and lip gloss. Anyone else, enter at your own risk.
  • Big Momma's House 2 Review
    By: Brian Marder January 27, 2006 9:34am EST
    Big Momma's House 2 is precisely what you'd expect from a sequel whose title no longer has any affiliation with the current "story": a few harmless, lowbrow laughs, all of which are forever indebted to the formulas of crap past.
  • Kingdom of Heaven Review
    By: Kit Bowen May 06, 2005 4:52am EST
    Between the two of them, Ridley Scott and Orlando Bloom have picked up their swords for Gladiator, Troy and The Lord of the Rings trilogy. And that's the problem. If the intriguing but ultimately derivative Kingdom of Heaven had arrived before these recent period epics, it may have stood a better chance of enthralling us.

    Even with an appealing Paul Bettany on the back line, Wimbledon's cross-court love match mostly fumbles along rather than running up to the net for the kill shot. (How about that for a bunch of tennis clichés?)
  • Paparazzi Review
    By: Gregory Freitas September 07, 2004 12:11pm EST
    Worthless as a film, Paparazzi is a $20 million poison pen letter from Mel Gibson to the photographers who annoy him.
  • The Ring Review
    By: Stacie Hougland October 22, 2002 3:11pm EST
    Beware of plot holes you could drive a Mack truck through, and enjoy this well-done thriller-slash-horror movie that has some good, scary jolts, provocative images and an intriguing premise.
  • Hart's War Review
    By: Kit Bowen February 14, 2002 2:06pm EST
    Hart's War isn't at all what you expect, which keeps the film a refreshing change of pace from the usual war movie fare.

    By: Kit Bowen April 26, 2001 3:02pm EST
    Grammy Award-winning artist Eminem was sentenced to two years' probation Tuesday for carrying a concealed weapon.
