  • Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian Review
    By: Pete Hammond May 20, 2009 3:41pm EST
    Though fun and educational for kids, this sequel offers so few new ideas it probably belongs in a museum itself.

    By: Guylaine Cadorette May 11, 2009 2:07pm EST

  • The Rocker Review
    By: Pete Hammond August 21, 2008 11:07pm EST
    Just when you think the dog days of summer movies are upon us along comes a hilarious sleeper hit that should make The Office’s Rainn Wilson a movie star as well.
  • P.S. I Love You Review
    By: Kit Bowen December 21, 2007 12:29pm EST
    P.S. I Love You isn’t as pathetically sappy as the title might sound. OK, maybe it is a little, but the film is still a serviceable romantic flick guaranteed to produce sighs and tears.
  • Ryan Reynolds Back in Talks Over 'Flash' Movie
    By: WENN.com Source August 21, 2007 10:38am EST
    A movie adaptation of comic superhero Flash starring Ryan Reynolds is back on, the actor has revealed.
  • Wild Hogs Review
    By: Kit Bowen March 09, 2007 5:58am EST
    Wild Hogs is basically City Slickers meets Easy Rider--just a whole lot sillier without any sociological angst.
  • Night at the Museum Review
    By: Kit Bowen December 29, 2006 5:29am EST
    Even for a piece-of-fluff family comedy, Ben Stiller and gang still manage to give the delightfully entertaining Night at the Museum a little edge.
  • The Pink Panther Review
    By: Brian Marder February 13, 2006 10:36am EST
    The Pink Panther will be palpably funny to kids who know not of its legacy. It’s hard to imagine this remake ever being laugh-till-you-cry funny, but it seems as though demography calculations (see Beyonce as the female lead) sucked some potential out of it.
  • 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.
  • 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.
