Linda Cook |
Tomato 3.5/4 |

Linda Cook |
Tomato 3/4 |
Accepted (2006) |
"I went in expecting that "Accepted" would flunk its PG-13 comedy course within minutes. Was I ever surprised to discover that it's sometimes clever, and surprisingly gentle -- a formula to be sure, yes, but an enjoyable one all the same." |

Linda Cook |
Splat 1.5/4 |
An American Haunting (2006) |
"Whatever really lurks behind the story of the kinda-famous Bell Witch remains hidden in "An American Haunting," a murky script that only makes us wonder all the more: What the heck?

ATL (2006) |
"Here's the kind of movie that filmmakers should develop more often: It's an urban movie about teen-agers FOR teen-agers. And I hope that teen-agers and adults from all walks of life see "ATL," because it's both gritty and good-hearted." |
