Shanghai Noon Review
November 04, 2008 12:48pm ESTIt's a Jackie Chan movie. It's a western. It's a comedy. In other words, there's a little something here for everybody. And if you don't mind all the recycled clichés, it's a lot of fun.

The Savages Review
December 01, 2007 9:56am ESTMuch like the title family it depicts so well, The Savages is constantly at odds with itself--hilarious yet heartbreaking, warm yet frigid. The result is one final contradiction: a movie that is tough to swallow, yet one of the year’s best.

Friday Night Lights Review
October 08, 2004 9:39am ESTPerhaps if Friday Night Lights was the first high school football story to come to the big screen, it would be one of the best. Even though the film does sport some superb performances and tackles gritty realism with gusto, it isn't the first to do that--far from it.
