" Kramer's grating bombast exists only to call attention to itself as well as the complete absence of any moral implications or recognizable human behavior in the film." -- Los Angeles Daily News

Running Scared (2006)40%

0/4
 
" An uninspired splatterfest that wears its vulgarity on its blood-caked sleeve and is cynical enough to use 9/11 in its vapid story line." -- Los Angeles Daily News

Final Destination 3 (2006)45%

" Think twice about getting involved with the woman who reared these two little sadists. Maybe these two rotten apples haven't fallen far from the tree." -- Los Angeles Daily News

Are We There Yet? (2005)12%

" Alternating between the despicable and the inept and sometimes capturing both in a single moment, September Tapes is a craven attempt to cash in on the 9/11 tragedy." -- Los Angeles Daily News

September Tapes (2004)21%

" Scratch this one from your list and watch instead Singin' in the Rain or The Dukes of Hazzard or a Learning Channel special on cows, flatulent or otherwise. Whatever your interest, you'll be better served." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" Director John Moore pays homage to the video game by pushing the slo-mo button during action sequences in a fashion that would make John Woo weep tears of sorrow. He's not the only one." -- Los Angeles Daily News

Max Payne (2008)18%

" It's a movie that spoofs intelligence in the most unintelligent way possible and stretches the boundaries of plot-free filmmaking into frontiers until now explored only by former cast members of Saturday Night Live." -- Los Angeles Daily News

Get Smart (2008)53%

" [Director] Perelman applies a rigorous visual beauty to this thin gimmick of a movie." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" Spurlock's deliberately facile method might make his movie palatable to moviegoers resistant to serious documentaries that include actual information." -- Los Angeles Daily News

Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden? (2008)37%
/

" As we watch Irene and Jean prostitute themselves with their weathered, moneyed marks, the vibe isn't playful or mischievous but tedious and vulgar. The accommodations might be four-star, but the movie is strictly Motel 6." -- Los Angeles Daily News

Priceless (2008)83%

" In a movie about control, it's Ritchie who's adrift, and it's not looking like he's going to come back." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" Proof that straights have no monopoly on crass, lazy coming-of-age stories." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" Robin Williams plays a reverend running the Marquis de Sade School of Marriage Counseling in this desperately unfunny movie." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" A psychological thriller in which both the psychology and the thrills are in short supply." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" With material this contrived, it's easy to understand why Carrey seems lost and Schumacher works overtime laying on the design to distract you from the thinness of the story." -- Los Angeles Daily News

The Number 23 (2007)8%

" What's left is a plodding revenge story, memorable only for the way it strips the last vestiges of interest from what was once a fascinating character." -- Los Angeles Daily News

Hannibal Rising (2007)15%

" Why, after nearly 90 minutes of splattering limbs, cat-fighting hookers and characters gleefully being set afire, does Carnahan suddenly decide to veer into operatic Michael Mann territory?" -- Los Angeles Daily News

" It's not Godzilla vs. Mothra, but the slight coming-of-age story Driving Lessons does set up something of a clash of the titans, with Julie Walters and Laura Linney providing a master class in overacting." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" Tokyo Drift has no story and no stars. That just leaves the rides, which are shiny and loud and fast and sometimes just as computer-generated as their counterparts in Pixar's Cars." -- Los Angeles Daily News

The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006)34%

" The movie looks horrible. On the few occasions that the action moves outside the chamber room, it's as if the filmmakers were venturing forth on the planet Mars." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" Filth -- be it in the kitchen or the punch lines -- is something I can handle. One-note, laugh-free filth is another thing entirely." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" A mediocre action-adventure flick that's compelling only for its strange mixture of B-movie elements and a completely hollow social consciousness." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" It does have more laughs than De Niro's other current picture, Meet the Fockers, but in this case, that's not much of a selling point." -- Los Angeles Daily News

Hide and Seek (2005)13%

1/4
 
" A homogenized look at Darin's complicated life that is designed, like most of Spacey's recent films, to produce a showy ego trip for the lead actor and cheap, unearned, beyond-earnest sentiment for the unfortunate, paying customers." -- Los Angeles Daily News

Beyond the Sea (2004)42%

" With a movie this bad, you can sure the DVD will be out before Christmas, just in time to give to someone that you really, really don't like." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" This schizophrenic film veers wildly in tone between unfunny, poorly executed farce and treacle that panders to people who wept at the end of Home Alone." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" In case the one-note plot of this movie seems a little vague, let me reiterate: THE GIRL WANTS TO BE NORMAL, JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" Apocalypse is cheap, incoherent and remarkably free of the kind of gore you'd expect to find in this kind of movie." -- Los Angeles Daily News

Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004)21%

" A bad high school movie with grand illusions of being about something important instead of being just another run-of-the-mill, unfunny, broad teen comedy." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" Filled with Meaning, but completely pointless, Bruno Dumont's excursion into banality may well spell the death of minimalist cinema." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" The movie is every bit as exploitative as the old Roger Corman babes-behind- bars flicks without having nearly as much campy fun." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" This is a movie that operates at two speeds: Somebody is either giving a fake-sounding, melodramatic speech or fighting in a fake-looking, melodramatic battle." -- Los Angeles Daily News

" Offensive in the way it exploits the hot-button issue of domestic abuse for cheap thrills and disgusting in the manner it repeatedly puts a small child in jeopardy, treating her as little more than a prop to be cruelly tormented." -- Los Angeles Daily News
