  • Unaccompanied Minors Review
    By: Brian Marder December 08, 2006 5:10am EST
    While it doesn’t exactly reinvent the wheel, Unaccompanied Minors is at least decent, harmless, heart-warming fun. It’s also a surefire way to keep the kiddies smiling and occupied this pre-Christmas.
  • The Guardian Review
    By: Brian Marder September 29, 2006 6:22am EST
    The Guardian wants more than anything to be a summer blockbuster. But as a fall movie in earnest--clocking in at well over two hours, no less--the movie is stripped bare and revealed as a middling action flick without much action.
  • 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.
  • The Notorious Bettie Page Review
    By: Nicholas White April 14, 2006 5:24am EST
    Hot and bothered, Notorious Bettie Page is a sensual indie, coming from the same irony-splattered, brutal minds who brought us American Psycho.
  • Lucky Number Slevin Review
    By: Kit Bowen April 07, 2006 5:28am EST
    This crafty indie with a big-budget cast goes from a seemingly paint-by-numbers noirish comic thriller to something entirely more genre-bending. Definitely a ride worth taking.
  • Dave Chappelle's Block Party Review
    By: Brian Marder March 03, 2006 11:05am EST
    Not a Dave Chappelle fan? Stay away from his Block Party, because it might force you to switch teams. The other 99.9 percent of the world will be in Chappelle heaven: the musical dream team is sublime, with an even better MC---that is, Master of Charisma... If only the film was longer!
  • 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.
  • The Family Stone Review
    By: Kit Bowen December 16, 2005 7:40am EST
    As one of the more likable holiday films to come around in a long time, the comedy The Family Stone will also surprise you with its depth and emotional appeal.
  • Walk the Line Review
    By: Brian Marder November 18, 2005 4:24am EST
    Walk the Line arguably boasts two of the most dazzling, Oscar-worthy performances of the year from Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon. It's just a shame the biopic isn't as brave. After all, Johnny Cash wasn't "The Man in Black" just for his wardrobe alone.
  • Ocean's Twelve Review
    By: Kit Bowen December 10, 2004 6:56am EST
    Although bolstered by individual moments of pure hilarity and ribaldry from the entirely engaging cast, Ocean's Twelve doesn't quite measure up to the effortlessness of Eleven. The film is just too smart and twisty for its own good.
