Splat 2.25/4
Capitalism: A Love Story (2009)
"Michael Moore preaches to the converted in his least insightful op-ed to date."
Gina Carbone
Tomato 3.25/4
Cars (2006)
"Cars makes Over the Hedge look like a Pinto."
Splat 2.5/4
Cast Away (2000)
"Hanks fans may very well love this movie, but it does not fulfill its promise."
Changeling (2008)
"Somewhere along the road, Dirty Harry became the biggest feminist in Hollywood."
Charlie Wilson's War (2007)
"Without Philip Seymour Hoffman's Gust, this would be a mildly amusing 2-star dramedy. His deadpan punchlines elevate it beyond well-intentioned shlock"
Children of Men (2006)
"Children of Men is depressing as hell, but it's also a helluva good movie. 28 Days Later meets V for Vendetta with, thankfully, more in common with the former."
The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008)
"Puss in Boots, Gimli and Jesus Christ walk into a bar. The bartender, noticing how down they all look, asks what's wrong..."
Tomato 3/4
Click (2006)
"The first half is typical juvenile Sandler shtick and the second aims for the heart with the kind of bittersweet nectar the emotionally diabetic will reject."
Tomato 2.75/4
Cloverfield (2008)
"I'll always remember Cloverfield as the first thing that made me vomit since that teriyaki in San Diego."
Tomato 3.5/4
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008)
"Elegant, understated epic takes its time going backward with forward-thinking director at the helm."
