Tomato 3.5/5 |
S&Man (2006) |
"The only thing scarier than the [underground horror] movies may be the people who make them." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 2.5/5 |
S.W.A.T. (2003) |
"I liked the characters, the action, and the story, but the sophomoric dialog keeps this from being a great cop movie." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 4/5 |
S1m0ne (2002) |
"She may not be real, but the laughs are." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
S21: The Khmer Rouge Killing Machine (2004) |
"It's not the kind of movie you would want to see more than once, but it opens your eyes to another period in history when man shows his capacity for inhumanity." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 2/5 |
Sacred Planet (2003) |
"All fluff and no substance, and even though it's nice fluff (pretty pictures and nice tribal music), the message is so convoluted it doesn't even know what it's trying to say." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 1.5/5 |
The Saddest Music in the World (2004) |
"If the intention is to transport the audience to a world we've never seen, mission accomplished. You'll either find it extremely creative or an insufferable bore." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Safe Conduct (2002) |
"It might be 'easier' to watch on video at home, but that shouldn't stop die-hard French film connoisseurs from going out and enjoying the big-screen experience." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Safety of Objects (2003) |
"Each one of these characters experiences an incredibly healing moment and you want to celebrate with them, laugh with them, cry with them - they moved me." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Sahara (2005) |
"For a popcorn movie, it's a bit stale." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Saint Ralph (2005) |
"Ralph may be more a sinner than a saint, and his movie may be a little cheesy, but who cares - I thoroughly enjoyed following him on his quest." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Salton Sea (2002) |
"Don't judge this one too soon - it's a dark, gritty story but it takes off in totally unexpected directions and keeps on going." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |

The Santa Clause 2 (2002) |
"If you want to put your kids in the mood for Christmas, or just put the fear of being naughty in them - this is the movie to see. You might just get a little enjoyment yourself." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 3/5 |
Sarah Silverman: Jesus is Magic (2005) |
"Sarah is sometimes very funny, sometimes flat, but definitely not for the easily offended." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 3/5 |
Satin Rouge (2002) |
"The movie has lots of dancing and fabulous music. There are slow and repetitive parts, but it has just enough spice to keep it interesting." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Savages (2007) |
"In the end it's worth a look, but you might wish you had some of Wendy's happy pills that she ripped off from her father's dead girlfriend." |

Saved! (2004) |
"The second act is a bit too ordinary, but the smart satiric first half saves this from being drab and makes it worth checking out." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Saving Face (2005) |
"It's like the movie version of a fortune cookie - nothing too provocative (or too profound), but it's cute light entertainment." |

Saw (2004) |
"Saw doesn't cut it. Any movie that makes you giggle when you should be freaking-out scared has missed the mark - less would have been more." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Saw II (2005) |
"The problem with the big game is that it doesn’t have that same fear factor – a deadly gas? (You can’t see any impending doom, except for a couple of phlegmy coughs)." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Saw III (2006) |
"This is a series that went back to what made it work so well... a game that you wouldn't want to play yourself, but you have to know how it ends." |

Scary Movie 3 (2003) |
"You're not going to die after you see this movie, but for the next 7 days you'll be haunted by the images and cursed with questions about why they keep making these sequels..." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Scary Movie 4 (2006) |
"Starts with some promise. Unfortunately, when it takes a dive, it falls so fast the g-forces shock the audience into silence (no, they just got quiet because it stopped being funny)." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Schizo (2005) |
"It takes patience to get into this movie, but it does pay off." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 4/5 |
School of Rock (2003) |
"Don't skip school to see this movie, but maybe you can talk your principal into a field trip and go see it as a class project. Jack Black rocks and so does his mini-band." |

Schultze Gets the Blues (2005) |
"This movie is not played out in Hollywood time. It has it's own rhythm - but it's worth it to slow down to the film's pace and just amble along." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Science of Sleep (2006) |
"There is nothing scientific about this enchanting little story, but it does create a dream world pretty fascinating to visit." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed (2004) |
"Zoinks! It's a rare case of a sequel being better than the original. Maybe by the time they get around to Scooby-Doo 3, they'll get it right." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Scooby-Doo - The Movie (2002) |
"Ruh-roh. Would I see this again for a Scooby snack? Like, uh, I don't think so." |

Scoop (2006) |
"I was hoping for a rich double scoop that would leave me with a big satisfied smile on my face, what I got was a single scoop that was sorta flavorless." |

The Sea Inside (2004) |
"Javier Bardem delivers another terrific performance (this guy can do no wrong). He transforms into a man 30 years his senior, and he's totally believable." |

Secret Ballot (2002) |
"The locations go from stark desert to gorgeous beaches. The story plays out slowly, but the characters are intriguing and realistic." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Secret Lives of Dentists (2003) |
"It's funny, dark, different, hard to describe in a way that really does it justice - it's about life's real emotions and behaviors, along with a little fantasy, a touch of opera, and a couple of fillings." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
