Dan in Real Life (2007) |
"...not awful, but not up to the quality of the screwball comedies of the '30s and '40s...There are smiles where there could have been guffaws." |

Daredevil (2003) |
"This is the type of movie that Hollywood loves to make. No story, an inane script, no acting, people fly, loud noises, absurd special effects, lots of gratuitous violence." |

Days of Glory (2006) |
"...a good, action-packed war movie with admirable character development, one that informs while it entertains." |

De-Lovely (2004) |

The Deal (2005) |
"If I, a former General Counsel for an oil company, have difficulty understanding the plot of a film based on the oil industry, what chance is there for the ordinary viewer?" |

Death at a Funeral (2007) |
"This is a rollicking good show, reminscent of two classic Alan Dwan-Dennis O'Keefe screwball comedies from the '40s, Up in Mabel's Room and Getting Gertie's Garter." |
Tony Medley |
Splat 5/10 |
Death Race (2008) |
"Brit writer-director Paul W.S. Anderson obviously realizes that he isn't there to make Hamlet. He's got a job to do and he does it effectively and competently." |

Splat 5/10 |
Deception (2008) |
"(This film is) not worthy of the work of Jackman, McGregor, and cinematographer Dante Spinotti. Not bad for an hour, but the ending is worse than ludicrous." |

The Departed (2006) |
"Nicholson, as usual, overacts to great effect. But the star is DiCaprio who emerges from this film as a complete actor and a full-fledged star... (with) a big assist from Wahlberg, who is captivating in the few minutes he has on screen." |
Tony Medley |
Tomato 8/10 |
Derailed (2005) |
"Despite a few plot holes, this is a well-acted, well-directed, well-written thriller that kept me interested throughout." |

The Devil Wears Prada (2006) |
"Streep and Tucci are wonderful (but) best of all is Emily Blunt, who plays the bitchy, ambition-obsessed Emily with a deft touch." |

Disturbia (2007) |
"The last half more than makes up for what I thought was a draggy first half. I hesitate to call it "Hitchcockian," because I think it's even better than that." |
