Rating	T-Meter	Title \| Year	Add Date (default)

Fresh	Rotten 27%	The Prince & Me (2004)	" Coolidge wisely works within the confines of the romantic comedy genre and delivers a quality experience." — Hometownsource.com Posted Apr 19, 2004
Fresh	Rotten 44%	Connie and Carla (2004)	" I went into the theater tired and dragging and emerged singing a show tune and smiling. I hope you'll have the same reaction." — Hometownsource.com Posted Apr 18, 2004
Fresh	Fresh 78%	Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003)	" It's just plain insulting to the whole art of creativity to work backwards from a theme park ride to a movie." — Hometownsource.com Posted Aug 27, 2003
Fresh	Rotten 34%	What a Girl Wants (2003)	" The script...takes full advantage of the emotional connection that girls (no matter what their age) have (or would like to have) with their fathers." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Apr 4, 2003
Fresh	Rotten 44%	Daredevil (2003)	" If you�re willing to forgive a few not so minor faults for the sake of some sizzle, you�ll have a fairly good time." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Feb 15, 2003
Fresh	Fresh 85%	About Schmidt (2002)	" *Writer/director Alexander Payne (Election)and his co-writer Jim Taylor brilliantly employ their quirky and fearless ability to look American angst in the eye and end up laughing." — Chico Enterprise-Record* Posted Jan 26, 2003
—	Fresh 93%	About a Boy (2002)	" I confess. This is one of my favorite kinds of stories. Flawed hero meets someone who changes his life. Comedy and romance ensue." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Jan 26, 2003
Fresh	Fresh 81%	The Hours (2002)	" ...is there a deeper, more direct connection between these women, one that spans time and reveals meaning? You bet there is and it�s what makes this rather convoluted journey worth taking." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Jan 24, 2003
Fresh	Rotten 59%	Die Another Day (2002)	" Brosnan is more feral in this film than I�ve seen him before and Halle Berry does her best to keep up with him." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Nov 27, 2002
Rotten	Fresh 71%	The Ring (2002)	" There is a whole lot of fuss about nothing in this film and enough red herrings for a pod of Orcas to feast on for a week." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Oct 19, 2002
Fresh	Rotten 22%	The Tuxedo (2002)	" ...after you see just exactly where �clear mountain water� comes from, you may take up orange juice." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Sep 26, 2002
Fresh	Rotten 47%	The Banger Sisters (2002)	" Hawn lets it all hang out in this film and I have to admire her guts. Sarandon is equally bold and daring in her portrayal of a woman who has lost her way in a closet full of beige suits." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Sep 20, 2002
Fresh	Rotten 41%	The Four Feathers (2002)	" Shekhar Kapur (�Elizabeth�) directs this version beautifully and fulfills the implied promise for a grand adventure." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Sep 20, 2002
Fresh	Rotten 51%	S1m0ne (2002)	" Director Andrew Niccol...demonstrates a wry understanding of the quirks of fame. His healthy sense of satire is light and fun...." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Aug 25, 2002
Rotten	Fresh 75%	Spy Kids 2: Island of Lost Dreams (2002)	" The talented and clever Robert Rodriguez perhaps put a little too much heart into his first film and didn't reserve enough for his second." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Aug 6, 2002
Fresh	Fresh 61%	K-19: The Widowmaker (2002)	" As commander-in-chief of this film, Bigelow demonstrates a breadth of vision and an attention to detail that propels her into the upper echelons of the directing world." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Jul 17, 2002
Fresh	Rotten 40%	Reign of Fire (2002)	" *I have two words to say about Reign of Fire.* Great dragons!*" — Chico Enterprise-Record* Posted Jul 10, 2002
Rotten	Rotten 38%	Men in Black II (2002)	" �Men in Black II,� has all the earmarks of a sequel. The story is less vibrant, the jokes are a little lukewarm, but will anyone really care?" — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Jul 4, 2002
Fresh	Fresh 81%	The Deep End (2001)	" Unbidden, Alek (Goran Visnjic) gives Margaret what she wants from her family: recognition. Maybe that�s all that any woman wants from her family." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Jun 27, 2002
Rotten	Fresh 92%	Minority Report (2002)	" The two main women in this film make the Pre-Crime Unit possible, but don�t benefit themselves. Guess the future isn't that much different. The guys are still having all the fun, while the girls either make that possible or sit by and watch." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Jun 21, 2002
Fresh	Fresh 90%	Spider-Man (2002)	" The script by David Koepp is perfectly serviceable and because he gives the story some soul ... he elevates the experience to a more mythic level." — Chico Enterprise-Record Posted Jun 4, 2002
