  • That's My Boy Review
    By: Matt Patches June 15, 2012 9:40am EST
    A disgusting, manic and delightfully twisted comedy from Adam Sandler that recalls the good ol' (stupid) days.
  • John Carter Review
    By: Matt Patches March 06, 2012 1:15pm EST
    A rousing, imaginative sci-fi adventure that shoots for the mars...and almost gets there.
  • Captain America: The First Avenger Review
    By: Thomas Leupp July 20, 2011 12:17pm EST
    Gleefully old-fashioned and gloriously entertaining.
  • 300 Review
    By: Scott Huver March 13, 2007 10:10am EST
    Merging cutting-edge cinematic razzle dazzle with resonant themes of honor, courage and sacrifice, 300 builds yet another visually thrilling and viscerally satisfying film..

    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.
  • Just Like Heaven Review
    By: Jennifer Simonovic September 16, 2005 5:05am EST
    Just Like Heaven is sweet enough for some but it's going to be "just like hell" for boyfriends who are dragged kicking and screaming to this boring chick flick.
  • Thunderbirds Review
    By: Betsy Bozdech July 30, 2004 6:02am EST
    Cool ships and a delightful, pink-clad bombshell can't mask the fact that these Thunderbirds are not go.
  • Van Helsing Review
    By: Kit Bowen May 11, 2004 12:47pm EST
    For the love of all that's unholy, drive a wooden stake, shoot a silver bullet, do whatever it takes to put Van Helsing out of its misery.
