The Fourth Kind (2009) |

Josh Bell |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Free Zone (2006) |
"The deeply allegorical ending may provoke political discussions, but as drama, Free Zone has lost its way long before then." |
Josh Bell |
Splat 2/5 |
Freedom Writers (2007) |
"Erin herself is so unbelievably saintly -- and her fellow teachers so snivellingly evil -- that she's impossible to believe as anything more than an inspiration-bot." |
