A cringe-inducing, cinematic tribute to the Golden Age of Minstrelsy!

 

A feelgood, end-of-life flick that somehow manages to buoys the spirits.

 

It’s effective at casting a creepy pall over the proceedings which permeate the picture for the duration.

 

A thought-provoking slice of African-Americana sans the shucking and jiving which Hollywood typically attaches to black-oriented fare.

 

Not only is this a feel good story, but it’s moving and inspirational for all.

 

Relatively lighthearted romp about a real-life James Bond.

 

Amidst some CGI flaws, Smith still gives a tour-de-force perfomance as the last man on Earth.

 

The Kite Runner unfortunately, fails to engage the audience on a visceral level, in spite of its earnest endeavor to tug on one’s heartstrings.

 

What could have been a film that folks can watch for ages, it’s merely something you’d probably consider as a ‘bin’ movie in a box when you pass by your local video store.

 

The upshot is a terminally-clever comedy that’s laced with lots of inspired sardonic humor but can’t quite convince you to take its slowly thickening plot seriously

 

The magnificence of this film is in its storytelling; narrative and metaphorical, visceral and poetic, in the specificity and trauma of one man's life.

fter 22 years, Spike Lee’s feature film debut still more than holds up for a bare bones production made on a shoestring budget in a dozen days.

 

A complicated cowboy flick where you don’t know whether to root for the guys in the white or the black hats.

 

A one-dimensional cinematic treat best savored with one’s brain on pause.

 

Soufflé-light fare with a wafer-thin plot just compelling enough to keep you amused by the comic crime caper until the very end.

 

A mesmerizing thriller designed with a penchant for lingering depictions of utter depravity

 

Another stunt-driven, Matt Damon vehicle about a relentless killing machine without a memory caught up in manic, mindless mayhem not of his own making.

 

Steve Buscemi and Sienna Miller generate enough chemistry here to keep one transfixed for the duration of this daring mindbender.

 

The motley ensemble’s supportive response to the secret in the film proves to be a surprisingly sweet way to bring down the curtain on this well-meaning message movie

 

Best thought of as a Johnny Depp vehicle to be savored as a mindless, mildly scary escape.

You will be richly rewarded by this testosterone-fueled fantasy which is easily the funniest movie of 2007.

Waitress is a warts-and-all tale of female empowerment featuring adult-oriented humor as sophisticated as the mature themes it tackles.
