  • 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.
  • North Country Review
    By: Brian Marder October 21, 2005 2:03pm EST
    North Country isn't for those short on patience or time. But for the rest of us, the superb acting and relevant theme makes it more than worth it.
  • Dreamer: Inspired by a True Story Review
    By: Kit Bowen October 21, 2005 2:02pm EST
    As yet another underdog/family flick that tugs mercilessly at our heart strings, Dreamer just doesn’t offer anything new and exciting in this well-worn genre.
  • Capote Review
    By: Mike Szymanski September 30, 2005 9:35am EST
    Supported by an excellent performance from Philip Seymour Hoffman, Capote offers insight into the author and his idiosyncrasies and could perhaps shed a newfound respect for those of us who may remember Capote as only a creepy talk show gadfly. The man no doubt had a lot of talent, as a writer, a storyteller and a journalist.
  • Underclassman Review
    By: Nicholas White September 02, 2005 5:08am EST
    Our kids deserve better. This Nick Cannon-fronted sloppy action-comedy flops around with a sitcom's look-at-me spunk. The jokes are so bad, they're distracting. Look for The Underclassman to disappear by the third week of school.
  • Undiscovered Review
    By: Brian Marder August 29, 2005 12:37pm EST
    Undiscovered is like a MTV show the studio execs thought was too rich for the channel. They were wrong--dead wrong.
  • The Dukes of Hazzard Review
    By: Kit Bowen August 05, 2005 7:46am EST
    I guess if you were a fan of the TV show, this foolhardy Dukes of Hazzard upgrade may appeal to your baser senses. Or it could just remind you how ridiculous it was the show ran for six seasons in the first place.
  • The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Review
    By: Shawn Dwyer April 29, 2005 7:17am EST
    Hitchhiker Guide to the Galaxy fans will admire the striking visual effects, laugh at familiar scenes and leave the theater satisfied, though a little disappointed with the left-out bits. But the inside jokes and loopy antics could throw the general population into a panic--a violation of the Guide's golden rule.
  • White Noise Review
    By: Kit Bowen January 07, 2005 4:15am EST
    White Noise is certainly an intriguing concept--you may find yourself listening more intently to static from now on. But ultimately the trite film fails to deliver the necessary thrills and chills it so desperately wants us to experience.
