A Scanner Darkly (2006) |
|
"Linklater wants A Scanner Darkly to be a thought-provoking, living graphic novel. But he floods the script with multiple meanings and loses himself in the hydra-headed metaphors." | |

3/4 |
|
A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001) |
|
"No film scholar would pick the populist Spielberg as the esoteric Kubrick's successor. It's as unlikely as Orson Welles collaborating with Walt Disney." | |

Abandon (2002) |

"A dark, dull thriller with a parting shot that misfires." | |

3.5/4 |
|
About a Boy (2002) |
|
"The Weitz brothers succeed mostly because they are smart enough to let Grant be Grant and Hornby be Hornby. As in "High Fidelity," the script brims with pungent, quotable dialogue." | |

About Schmidt (2002) |
|
"Trying their hand at hope, Payne and Taylor reveal they should stick to cynicism. But Nicholson’s performance is powerful enough to shade this artificial sunshine." | |

Alexander (2004) |
