David Keyes |
Splat 0/4 |
Battlefield Earth (2000) |
"Battlefield Earth bathes in a pool of utter ridiculousness and cheesy visual styles, then stands up expecting everyone to admire it" |
David Keyes |
Splat 1.5/4 |
The Beach (2000) |
"The Beach is quite easily the most colorful bad movie of the year..." |
David Keyes |

David Keyes |
Tomato 3.5/4 |

David Keyes |
Tomato 3/4 |
Beyond the Sea (2004) |

David Keyes |
Splat 0/4 |
Bicentennial Man (1999) |
"...nothing but a sappy, shameless, and morbid production that wastes talent and time in a script designed to line the bottom of a bird cage." |
David Keyes |
Splat 0.5/4 |
The Big Bounce (2004) |
"...a dead zone of monstrous proportions that warrants nothing but yawns and groans for all 89 minutes it takes up the screen." |

David Keyes |
Tomato 3/4 |
Blast From the Past (1999) |

Splat 2/4 |
Bless the Child (2000) |
"In times when special effects can show us anything, is it so much to ask to make several thousand crawling rats look at least realistic?" |

"Quick--someone find an iceberg!" |
David Keyes |
Splat 2/4 |
Boiler Room (2000) |
"...its promising characters are completely eclipsed by the routine plot, which is so dreary and predictable that watching the events unfold becomes somewhat of a checklist." |
David Keyes |
Splat 2.5/4 |
The Bone Collector (1999) |
"..its serial killer has a novel approach when it comes to homicide, but he and the others are basically pulling a sheet over familiar styles and plot tricks" |

David Keyes |
Tomato 3/4 |
Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 (2000) |

"In a movie as obvious as this, we know exactly what is expected of people at specific intervals, and it's never very funny." |
David Keyes |
Tomato 3/4 |
Bringing Out the Dead (1999) |
"This isn't a movie about uncompromising psychological plights, but one about a man seeking hope, sense, and renewal. It is a tale that has much to say, and one that speaks with a clear and distinctive voice." |
