  • Underworld: Rise of the Lycans Review
    By: Mark Burger January 22, 2009 8:56pm EST
    “Unnecessary” and “unrewarding” are two of the terms which come to mind when considering the merits -- meager such as they are -- of the third in the Underworld series.
  • The Tale of Despereaux Review
    By: Pete Hammond December 18, 2008 6:41pm EST
    The Tale of Despereaux has the feel of a timeless classic. It is a brave and beautiful, heartfelt, lively story that ranks with the best of animated films.
  • Happy-Go-Lucky Review
    By: Pete Hammond October 10, 2008 7:56am EST
    British director Mike Leigh takes a walk on the bright side in this wonderfully acted but dramatically uneven look at an eternal optimist.
  • How to Lose Friends and Alienate People Review
    By: Pete Hammond October 02, 2008 9:51pm EST
    How to Lose Friends is how to make a smart, entertaining comedy that will have you laughing from start to finish.

  • The Happening Review
    By: Pete Hammond June 13, 2008 5:48am EST
    Although it has some effective moments and a clever premise, M. Night Shyamalan’s latest thriller is short on thrills. Not a whole lot HAPPENS in The Happening.
  • When Did You Last See Your Father? Review
    By: Pete Hammond June 06, 2008 5:38am EST
    A movie every father and son should be required to see together. Jim Broadbent’s towering performance should be remembered at awards time, and Colin Firth is perfect in this touching drama of memory and transition.
  • Prom Night Review
    By: Mark Burger April 11, 2008 5:03am EST
    This remake of the 1980 slasher film is at least a different story than its predecessor, but it’s not very good one.
