ABC

  • ADAPTATION.
  • A.I. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
    A collaboration of two great directors, Steven Spielberg and Stanley Kubrick, results in a powerful film named A.I.
  • AMERICA'S SWEETHEARTS
    A funny look at the spoiled stars of Hollywood that is surprisingly sophomoric at times.
  • ART HISTORY
    A short film that would have worked much better at feature length.
  • THE ART OF WAR
    Wesley Snipes really needs to find a new agent, or his next step may have to be a supporting role in a Dolph Lundgren flick.
  • AUSTIN POWERS IN GOLDMEMBER
    Give Mike Myers a gold penis and watch him shine!
  • BEHIND ENEMY LINES
    There are good movies, and there are bad movies. Behind Enemy Lines is a great example of a fast-paced, high-gloss, re-hashed piece of garbage.
  • BIG FISH
    Tim Burton at his best!
  • BLACK HAWK DOWN
    Unless they could somehow make real bullets whiz past your head in the theater, I don't think a war movie gets more realistic, scary, and powerful than this.
  • THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM (2007)
    The best sequel of the summer; Bourne doesn’t disappoint!
  • CAPOTE
    A complicated character.
  • CATWOMAN
    Definitely a poor CGI’d mess, but far from the horrid publicity it’s been receiving.
  • CATCH ME IF YOU CAN
  • THE CELL
    The Cell is visually amazing, however, aside from the eye candy the film lacks in several major elements like suspense and mystery.
  • CHARLIE'S ANGELS
    Heavy on the cheese, Charlie's Angels is everything you would expect from a Y2K revamp of the classic television series.
  • THE CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK
    Like Ah-nuld as Conan, Riddick is an all-Diesel driven vehicle, and a pretty satisfying one at that.
  • CLOSER
    An all-around great film!
  • CONSTANTINE
    Keanu Reeves has another franchise!
  • CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON
    An amazing film that is well worth the wait...

DEF

  • DAREDEVIL
    What's good is good, but the bad parts are really bad.
  • DIE ANOTHER DAY
    Pierce Brosnan turns in his best Bond performance and revitalizes the series!
  • DOMINO
    My name is Do    mino Harvey, you will either love me or you will hate me.
  • 8 MILE
  • EXPIRATION
    An impressive first feature from a group of unknowns that I hope to see more from down the road!
  • THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS
    A real joyride of a film from beginning to end…
  • FEMME FATALE
    "The master of the erotic thriller" let his little fella direct this one while his brain     went out for lunch.
  • FROM HELL
    This film proves to be a fresh interpretation of a classic story; a much needed departure from the other garbage in theaters these days.

GHI

  • GANGS OF NEW YORK
  • GARDEN STATE
    A funny, quirky, and ultimately touching look at life as a twenty-something
  • GEORGIA RULE (2007)
    This “chick flick” has a dark side.
  • GONE IN 60 SECONDS
    Testosterone fueled car chases and little else....
  • GRINDHOUSE (2007)
    "...everything I could have imagined and more..."
  • HANNIBAL
    Anthony Hopkins returns as Hannibal "the Cannibal" Lecter, and this time around he is the main dish.
  • HELLBOY
    A fun movie that never takes itself too seriously.
  • A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE
    Executed w    ith perfection.
  • HOLLOW MAN
    Another film that had great potential but fell way short of the mark.
  • HOT FUZZ (2007)
    "...looks a    nd feels like every action movie you’ve enjoyed the past couple decades."
  • I, ROBOT
    Go in with low expectations and you should be fairly impressed.

JKL

MNO

  • MARLA
    “Who dared to say I w    as nothing but the rib of a man?”
  • THE MATRIX REVOLUTIONS
    At times so intense that I don't think I could bring myself to blink.
  • ME, MYSELF & IRENE
    Jim Carrey re-teams with the Farrelly brothers for some great laughs, but falls short of ...Something About Mary level of greatness...
  • MEET THE PARENTS
    If they gave Oscars for "Best Comedy" this movie would win this year, hands down...
  • THE MEXICAN
    A film starring Julia Roberts and Brad Pitt…a match made in heaven, right? Well, not exactly.
  • MINORITY REPORT
    The dream team of Spielberg and Cruise measure up to all expectations!
  • MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE-2
    With motorcycle chases, fist fights, and a love story (!) a toned down John Woo does it again in Mission: Impossible-2.
  • MOULIN ROUGE
    Director Baz Luhrmann again takes something old and puts a fresh new spin on it. This time he revives and creates the modern musical.
  • MR. DEEDS
    Sandler rehashes his usual plot again for a movie that is better than Little Nicky, but that's not saying much.
  • THE NANNY DIARIES
    The next Devil Wears Prada? I think not.
  • OCEAN'S 11
    This film packs more star power punch than a Batman movie! However, in this case, director Steven Soderbergh manages to pull it off without a hitch.
  • OCEAN’S TWELVE
    The eye-candy is just that, but this confusing, dull, follow-up doesn’t come close to its predecessor
  • OCEAN’S THIRTEEN (2007)
    “11” was fun, “12” was     dull, “13” is…?
  • ONCE UPON A TIME IN MEXICO
    El Mariachi returns...
  • THE ONE
    A major setback in Jet Li's mission to gain star status in American cinema.
  • ORIGINAL SIN
    If this film was cut down to only about 20 minutes and the sound was muted it could have been decent.

PQR

STU

  • SAW
    Despite the plot holes this average Se7en-wannabe is saved by an amazing final quarter!
  • SCARY MOVIE 3
    This Scary outing entertains about as much as a decent episode of SNL.
  • SECRET WINDOW
    Johnny Depp makes this movie more enjoyable than it probably deserves to be.
  • SIGNS
    A fresh and suspenseful film from writer/director M. Night Shyamalan
  • SIN CITY
    Violent, dark, and fantastic!
  • THE 6TH DAY
    Lately, the words "good movie" and "Arnold Schwarzenegger" have not been seen in the same review, but The 6th Day ended up being a nice surprise…
  • SNATCH
    Guy Ritchie's hip follow-up to Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels offers more of the same, in a well-polished form.
  • SPIDER-MAN 2
    A fun follow-up filled with action, laughs, and super hero drama!
  • SPIDER-MAN 3 (2007)
    Silly.
  • SPY GAME
    With so much material packed into a 2-hour film, you'd think Spy Game would have come unraveled at some point, thankfully it never did.
  • STAR WARS: EPISODE II -- ATTACK OF THE CLONES
    A second opinion on a popular culture behemoth!
  • STARSKY & HUTCH
    More amusing than funny.
  • SUGAR TOWN

  • SUPERBAD
    Seth Rogen and friends bring the funny, again!
  • SWEET HOME ALABAMA
    Reese Witherspoon stars in another cute feel-gooder.

    Sure it's all for show, but Swordfish really proved to be an enjoyable experience…
  • TEAM AMERICA: WORLD POLICE
    The creators     of South Park go after terrorism and Hollywood
  • 300 (2006)
    The coolest 2-hour trailer ever made!
  • TRAFFIC
    With a collection of powerful vignettes, Steven Soderbe    rgh and an all-star cast show us the war on drugs minus all the media and political glamour.
  • THE TRANSPORTER
    I wasn't planning on seeing this film and it suffers from scenes of extreme action overkill (XXX anyone?) but I still enjoyed The Transporter!
  • TROY
    An entertaining and well cast epic despite the very loose ties to its source material.
  • 25TH HOUR
    Spike Lee's best film (or "joint") in awhile.
  • UNBREAKABLE
    Once again M. Night Shyamalan and Bruce Willis have a winner on their hands

    The Montagues and the Capulets meet the Lycans and the Vampires.    .

VWXYZ

  • V FOR VENDETTA
    The first must watch movie of 2006
  • VANILLA SKY
    Most will probably be very confused or dislike this film entirely. I, however, embraced it for its style and story filled with twists and turns that kept me guessing until the end credits began to roll.
  • VERTICAL LIMIT
    What would happen if every possible thing that could go wrong while mountain climbing occurred on the same day and was exaggerated past the highest logical degree? The answer is a movie called Vertical Limit.
  • THE VILLAGE
    Signature formula yields another signature hit for Shyamalan
  • WHIPPED
    Amanda Peet is starting to turn heads, and because of it hopefully she will get a decent supporting cast in her future films.
