-
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (in Film)
- "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" is the best of three
Harry Potter films presented on the big screen thus far. Fans
will embrace the maturity of the characters, ponder the mystery
that is set for them and enjoy the adventure that will bring them
back for more.

-
I'll Sing For You (in Film)
- A legendary musician is reborn again through his music in this
fascinating documentary
|
-
The Day After Tomorrow (in Film)
- The dialogue is absolutely terrible and the constant environmental
propaganda becomes unbearable, but the film is fantastic eye-candy
and delivers an awesome cinematic spectacle.
|
-
Baadasssss! (in Film)
- Mario Van Peebles has decided to make a film in homage to his
father by recreating that the process that led to that film, "Sweet
Sweetback's BaadAsssss Song", being made. "Baadasssss!" captures
the essence of independent filmmaking. It's entertaining and inspirational
|
-
Soul Plane (in Film)
- The film makes no effort whatsoever to have any semblance of
a plot or character development. There are a few chuckles,
but there needed to be some gutbusters for Soul Plane to succeed.
. A ride on a real plane would be more entertaining.
|
-
Raising Helen (in Film)
- Raising Helen is the same, dismal formula film that Hollywood
cranks out year after year. It has no surprises, no character
development, and worst of all, tries to manipulate your feelings
with crappy melodrama.
|
-
Saved (in Film)
- Saved is one of those films where everybody learns a lesson
and grows in the end. This is annoying because it makes
the film utterly predictable. So the film’s approach is
kind of wasted if all the characters learn something and the audience
does not.
|
-
Shrek 2 (in Film)
- Dreamworks has done an amazing job of not only bring back the
stellar cast but coming up with a plot that all will enjoy. Shrek
2 is the one of the best animated sequels to come out in theaters
in a long time. It’s just as good as the original.
|
-
Troy (in Film)
- The CGI and wooden dialogue come dangerously close to diminishing
the film, but the positive aspects far outweigh the negative.
Troy will surely be a hit with audiences and march to box office
glory this weekend.
|
-
Coffee & Cigarettes (in Film)
- Over the years Jarmusch compiled more segments, completing the
series in 2003. It’s hit or miss as far as the segments
go. Some are boring and nonsensical while others are hilarious
and brilliantly performed.
|
-
Laws of Attraction (in Film)
- Pierce Brosnan and Julianne Moore are attractive actors that
have great screen chemistry together. Unfortunately, that doesn't
save Laws of Attraction from being an average at best romantic
comedy. They deserve a better plot for their romantic escapades.
|
-
Mean Girls (in Film)
- Just when you thought you've seen all the teen movies possible.this
one surprises you. This undiscovered comedy is a definite early
"summer" bird contender. It has all the makings of a box office
hit.
|
-
Man on Fire (in Film)
- Man on Fire is a film that will own you utterly as you watch
it. Denzel Washington delivers a revenge film of raw feeling and
ferocity. He goes to the darkest, most nuanced place of his career
and it is more hardcore than this reviewer could have ever imagined.
|
-
The Agronomist (in Film)
- The Agronomist is Jonathon Demme’s love poem to Dominique
and call to arms about his struggle. Everyone in the world
should sit and watch this movie. Its themes are universal.
|
-
Kill Bill Vol. 2 (in Film)
- Superbly written and acted, Kill Bill Vol.2 outpaces its predecessor
by a satisfying margin.
|
-
Connie and Carla (in Film)
- Nia Vardalos and Toni Collette are good together, but the film
needed a better script to showcase their acting talent. The film
starts off with a cute premise, then quickly falls into political
correctness and silly drag queen humor.
|
-
The Punisher (in Film)
- The Punisher is an ill-fated attempt of bringing substance to
a clichéd genre. There’s a lack of dialogue, a lack
of violence, and a total waste of performances by the cast.
