The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause (2006) |
"Has some cool glimmers of what the series did best, showing a real guy reacting to the mythology of Santa Claus. Unfortunately, more than 2/3 of the film is made up of silly, cartoonish antics that are more embarrassing to watch than they seemed to perfor" |

Saw III (2006) |

School for Scoundrels (2006) |
"Jon Heder may rehash Napoleon Dynamite forever but at least he's starting to find the right vehicles for his persona. Paired with Billy Bob Thornton embracing his glorious A-hole from Bad Santa, he's pushed to confront his limitations and expand h" |

A Serious Man (2009) |
"It's really bold to set a movie in the world of Jewish tradition. The people who understand this world will love it, and The Coens can do whatever they want for as few people as they want." |

Shooter (2007) |
"They don't make movies like this anymore. I mean, seriously, they don't make movies where someone gets wronged and then kicks the wrongdoers' asses." |

Sleepwalking (2008) |
"It's a story, which is more than Snow Angels had. It's still miserable lowlifes who can't hold menial jobs languishing in feeling bad." |

Slumdog Millionaire (2008) |
"I get why Slumdog Millionaire is getting all the raves. It's well done and it's the kind of movie that gets people's attention. Just not mine." |

Smokin' Aces (2007) |
"If Smokin' Aces had come out one month earlier, it could have been the best movie of 2006. In 07, I imagine there won't be a more exciting work of art all year. It out Tarantinos Tarantino and you just don't want it to end." |

Snakes on a Plane (2006) |

Snoop Dogg's Hood of Horror (2007) |
"Take Hood of Horrors for what it is. Some will enjoy any excuse for gratuitous violence. It certainly doesn't take itself seriously. But most fans can find plenty of better horror movies to satisfy the same need." |

The Soloist (2009) |
"I liked The Soloist more than most disease/triumph over adversity movies. It's more believable, more sincere and just more interesting than most. I just can't get over the feeling of filmmakers patting themselves on the back..."" |

Spider-Man 3 (2007) |

State of Play (2009) |
"It would be funny if the surprise ending was that the newspaper just folded so the reporters had to abandon the case. I mean, someone still has to pay for their efforts. Exposing conspiracy and defending the public interest isn't free." |

Street Kings (2008) |
