7 Days In September (2002)100%
/
3.5/4
 
"The camera soars above the globe in dazzling panoramic shots that make the most of the large-screen format, before swooping down on a string of exotic locales, scooping the whole world up in a joyous communal festival of rhythm."
Posted Feb 20, 2003
 
IMAX - Pulse: A STOMP Odyssey (2006)93%
/
3/4
 
" When Gilliam is finally forced to admit defeat, it is nothing short of heartbreaking -- for audiences, too, as the few shots that made it into the can hold such promise."

Lost in La Mancha (2003)94%
/
3/4

"That rare film that manages to be seductively entertaining without ever compromising its authenticity and power."
Posted Jan 17, 2003
 
City of God (2003)92%
/
2.5/4
 
"Its focus on the complex relationship between an emotionally wounded youth and the sexually ambiguous older man who mentors him is a welcome detour from genre routine."
Posted Jan 8, 2003
 
The Slaughter Rule (2002)68%
/
1.5/4
 
"There are a handful of genuinely comical moments in Eight Crazy Nights, but the whole thing reeks of a super-indulgent, cobbled-together vanity trip by a star whose ego obviously leads him to believe he can put anything on screen."
Posted Nov 27, 2002
 
Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights (2002)13%
/

God Is Great, I'm Not (2002)21%
/
1.5/4
 
"De Palma fools around with split screens and slo-mo, but no amount of cinematic artifice can varnish over the fact that this is simply a bad film."
Posted Nov 6, 2002
 
Femme Fatale (2002)49%
/
2/4
 
"The action switches between past and present, but the material link is too tenuous to anchor the emotional connections that purport to span a 125-year divide."
Posted Nov 1, 2002
 
The Weight of Water (2002)32%
/
1/4
 
"An exercise in cynicism every bit as ugly as the shabby digital photography and muddy sound."
Posted Nov 1, 2002
 
Love in the Time of Money (2002)19%
/
.5/4
 
"The whole thing comes off like a particularly amateurish episode of Bewitched that takes place during Spring Break."

Besotted (2002)11%
/
1.5/4
 
"There's a whole heap of nothing at the core of this slight coming-of-age/coming-out tale."
Posted Oct 25, 2002
 
Food of Love (2002)46%
/
1.5/4
 
"Despite a crafty premise and a clever kink in the tale that almost saves it, Connolly isn't dexterous enough to achieve the Hitchockian level of suspense the movie needs."
Posted Oct 25, 2002
 
The Bank (2002)59%
/
3/4
 
"It's easy to succumb to the rhythms of this melancholic but humanistic rumination on the meaning of life."

Posted Oct 18, 2002
 
The Business of Fancydancing (2002)55%
/
2/4
 
"Nelson's brutally unsentimental approach ... sucks the humanity from the film, leaving behind an horrific but weirdly unemotional spectacle."

The Grey Zone (2002)68%
/
2.5/4
 
"Spears of Afro-topped asparagus singing gospel and French-accented peas working as maitre d's at a seafood restaurant -- what's not to love?"

2/4
 
"Another big, dumb action movie in the vein of XXX, The Transporter is riddled with plot holes big enough for its titular hero to drive his sleek black BMW through."

The Transporter (2002)53%
/
1.5/4
 
"Any one episode of The Sopranos would send this ill-conceived folly to sleep with the fishes."

The Man from Elysian Fields (2002)51%
/
2.5/4
 
"The whole cast looks to be having so much fun with the slapstick antics and silly street patois, tossing around obscure expressions like Bellini and Mullinski, that the compact 86 minutes breezes by."
Posted Oct 4, 2002
 
Welcome to Collinwood (2002)55%

Posted Sep 27, 2002
 
Just a Kiss (2002)19%
/
3/4
 
"The spaniel-eyed Jean Reno infuses Hubert with a mixture of deadpan cool, wry humor and just the measure of tenderness required to give this comic slugfest some heart."
Posted Sep 27, 2002
 
Wasabi (2002)45%
/
1/4
 
"A morality tale whose thought-provoking potential is hampered by a made-for-TV look, rigid performances and an asinine 'twist' that brazenly rips off The Sixth Sense."
Posted Sep 27, 2002
 
Crazy As Hell (2002)50%
/
3/4
 
"Skins has a desolate air, but Eyre, a Native American raised by white parents, manages to infuse the rocky path to sibling reconciliation with flashes of warmth and gentle humor."

Skins (2002)60%
/
2.5/4

Trapped (2002)18%
/
1/4
 
"Trying to make head or tail of the story in the hip-hop indie Snipes is enough to give you brain strain -- and the pay-off is negligible."
Posted Sep 20, 2002
 
Snipes (2002)25%
/
3/4
 
"Against all odds, director Steven Shainberg has managed to craft an oddly compassionate -- and often very funny -- tale of an emotionally symbiotic affair."
Posted Sep 20, 2002
 
Secretary (2002)74%
/
3/4
 
"This deftly crafted film provokes the kind of creeping horror that Lord of the Flies memorably nailed."

Posted Sep 13, 2002
 
Swimming (2002)74%
/
1.5/4
 
"Too simply plotted and, even at two hours -- Bombay exports can often run to four -- the story drags."
Posted Aug 30, 2002
 
Agni Varsha: The Fire and the Rain (2002)n/a
/
2.5/4
 
"Budding adolescents shouldn't find much fault with this pleasantly diverting, albeit formulaic, teen drama."
Posted Aug 23, 2002
 
Little Secrets (2001)60%
/
2.5/4
 
"A sensual performance from Abbass buoys the flimsy story, but her inner journey is largely unexplored and we're left wondering about this exotic-looking woman whose emotional depths are only hinted at."
Posted Aug 23, 2002
 
Satin Rouge (2002)83%
/
2.5/4
 
"Surprisingly for a comedy, it's the moments of heavy drama in The Last Kiss that pack the bigger punch."
