The Haunting of Molly Hartley (2008)

" If you get past the retro Nancy Drew title, this is a worthwhile effort."

Made in Jamaica (2006)

" A worthy look at a music born though turmoil with a vision that still resonates globally."

Quarantine (2008)

" Quarantine is based on the 2007 Spanish thriller [REC]. Like any imitation, the quality's not as good, but this is about cheap thrills, of which there are not enough."

Bangkok Dangerous (2008)

" Awatchable, but dull action flick with not enough body count to satisfy the average mixed martial arts fanboy."

Greg and Gentillon (2006)

" The triumph of the largely improvised film is that the characters, with all their naive optimism, are surprisingly nuanced."

Mr. Bean's Holiday (2007)

" Bean seems to lament how some filmmakers have forgotten that film is foremost a medium of mass entertainment. The great sadness is that without uttering much of anything, is a few jokes short of making a very good point."

Hot Rod (2007)

" Imagine a Stand by Me on wheels, with dialogue spoken by 20-something actors instead of 12-year-olds, and you have the essence of the script."

Bratz: The Movie (2007)

" Bratz is a disappointment because the characters come off less as the girly superheroes they should be, and more as, well, brats."

Captivity (2007)

" The real horror here is how anyone, especially a two-time Oscar nominated director, could be this hard up for work."

Hoodwinked (2006)

" A warped, but mildly amusing twist on the childhood favourite."

Hostel (2006)

" Roth doesn't know when to leave well enough alone. Piling the gore on without benefit of artful tension, the film ends up approaching parody."

Wolf Creek (2005)

" Australian writer and director McLean produces what is likely the most riveting horror movie you will see this year."

Cheaper By the Dozen 2 (2005)

" Sequels tend to be stupider by the dozen, and part two is perhaps overshadowed only by the banality and pointlessness of say, Leprechaun 6."

In The Mix (2005)

" The failure is with a script as ungainly as it is and an oversimplified conception of American-Italian and black cultures."

Cake (2004)

" Cake is under-baked and underwhelming."

Just Friends (2005)

" Just Friends is part Farrelly Brothers and part Romy and Michele's High School Reunion, all wrapped together to deliver gross-out gags in bizarrely random and rapid-fire fashion, with zero intent to develop sustainable plot or character."

The Grace Lee Project (2005)

" A clever look at the weight of cultural expectations and the crisis of identity, told with poignant wit."

N/A

Dodging the Clock (2005)

" Trogi's binding theme that males are cavemen at heart is woven throughout the movie. But it's a tired and unoriginal symbol."
