  • The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause Review
    By: Kit Bowen November 03, 2006 12:22pm EST
    OK, so Santa Clause 3 isn’t the stuff classic Christmas movies are made of, but the franchise still manages to keep us warm and toasty, invoking some genuine Yuletide spirit. Hard to believe, but it’s true.
  • Hollywoodland Review
    By: Scott Huver September 08, 2006 5:04am EST
    Hollywoodland is a well-acted, moody and sumptuously evocative recreation of LA’s seemingly glamorous underbelly circa the 1950s but tries entirely too hard to be Chinatown.
  • Invincible Review
    By: Kit Bowen August 25, 2006 7:58am EST
    It’s hard to knock something as inspiring as a true story about a local guy, with no football experience, trying out for his home pro team and making the cut. But Invincible does nothing to improve on the already very tired sports underdog theme.
  • John Tucker Must Die Review
    By: Kit Bowen July 28, 2006 5:33am EST
    In the typical vein of high school teen movies full of joie de vivre, John Tucker Must Die is unadulterated fluff. Derivative but somewhat amusing.
  • Little Miss Sunshine Review
    By: Brian Marder July 27, 2006 4:55am EST
    Even 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.
  • Jerry Lewis to Undergo Angioplasty
    By: WENN.com Source June 17, 2006 9:18am EST
    Beloved funnyman Jerry Lewis is to undergo heart surgery in an effort to re-open the same arteries involved in his double bypass two decades ago.
  • Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties Review
    By: Kit Bowen June 16, 2006 5:25am EST
    It’s really unnerving to have to sit through a second Garfield when the first was just so excruciating. But alas, here we are again--and now there’s two of them. Joy.
  • Brad Pitt Tops Best-Dad Poll
    By: WENN.com Source June 13, 2006 12:30pm EST
    Brad Pitt has been named Dad of the Year in a new Father's Day poll.
  • X-Men: The Last Stand Review
    By: Kit Bowen June 05, 2006 1:42pm EST
    X-Men: The Last Stand falls somewhere between the plodding exposition of the first X-Men and the compelling, character-driven X2. In other words, its action-packed but lacks that certain mutant angst.
  • The Wild Review
    By: Kit Bowen April 14, 2006 6:02am EST
    In a cross between Finding Nemo and Madagascar, with a little Lion King thrown in for good measure, Disney’s The Wild is just plain old tired derivativeness. Maybe we should chalk this one up to bad timing.
