  • The Big Year Review
    By: Thomas Leupp October 15, 2011 2:12pm EST
    Visually striking but lacking in laughs, 'The Big Year' works better as a travelogue than a comedy.

    By: Nancy Tartaglione January 11, 2010 11:00am EST

  • Fred Claus Review
    By: Kit Bowen November 12, 2007 10:44am EST
    Fred Claus is pure Vince Vaughn hijinks—but the PG, family-friendly mode may not be his most advantageous venue.
  • Haven Review
    By: Betsy Bozdech September 22, 2006 6:19am EST
    Orlando Bloom swaps swashbuckling swords and Elvish arrows for crimes of island passion in this murky, confusing thriller.
  • 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.
  • The Whole Ten Yards Review
    By: Guylaine Cadorette April 09, 2004 9:47am EST
    Although stars Matthew Perry, Bruce Willis and Amanda Peet shine in this sequel, The Whole Ten Yards fails to go the distance and, just like the title's dubious twist on the common expression, no one seems to know what it means.
  • Independent Spirit Awards Noms Announced
    By: Guylaine Cadorette December 11, 2002 2:51pm EST
    Nominations were announced Wednesday for the 2003 IFP Independent Spirit Awards, also known as the Indie Oscars. Leading the pack with six nominations is Lions Gate Films' Lovely & Amazing, followed by Focus Features' Far From Heaven, which received five nods.
  • Showtime Review
    By: James Dryden March 15, 2002 7:04am EST
    No doubt, you'll laugh here and there at Showtime, but you've seen/heard/smelled it all before. It's strictly matinee material--or a DVD rental.
  • Harrison's Flowers Review
    By: Guylaine Cadorette March 15, 2002 7:04am EST
    In a war that lasted six months and killed an estimated 10,000 people, Harrison's Flowers expects audiences to be moved by the disappearance of a snotty photojournalist that we know nothing about. Although the film paints a gritty and realistic portrait of what happened in southeastern Europe in 1991, it's hard to care for any of the characters and their circumstances.
  • Wendigo Review
    By: Leigh Johnson March 07, 2002 6:23am EST
    I don't know about staying out of the backwoods, but I can tell you this. Stay out of the theater when this flick's showing--waaaaay out.
