sort by RATING	sort by TITLE/YEAR	sort by QUOTE	sort by AUTHOR


2.5/4	A Scanner Darkly (2006)	"Here are my thoughts over the course of the trippy A Scanner Darkly: Intriguing. Good. Yes. Huh? Nope. Nope. Oh, OK."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



3/4	A Tout de Suite (2005)	"Benoit Jacquot's drama creates a sense of dislocation with its impossible-to- predict-what-will- happen-next plot, jumpy black-and-white cinematography, elusive characters and casual approach to the time in which it's set."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



	A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001)	"A cold, boring retread of Pinocchio with no characters to grab onto."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



1/4	Abandon (2002)	"A movie that's so glumly low-key it feels like it's on barbiturates."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



	Aberdeen (2001)	"The people who made the Scottish Aberdeen could have saved themselves some trouble if they'd come to America and watched a couple weeks' worth of TV movies."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



3.5/4	About a Boy (2002)	"Look, the novel About a Boy is so satisfying, you should read it now. Afterward, you'll have a really good movie waiting for you."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



4/4	About Schmidt (2002)	"By the end, the movie has become a reminder that average lives, lived by people who experience failures and learn from them, are extraordinary."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2.5/4	Accepted (2006)	"Accepted's best asset is its cast."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2.5/4	Across the Universe (2007)	"Think of it as more like a video installation at a gallery than a movie."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



3/4	Adam & Steve (2006)	"Like the Duran Duran videos it worships, Adam & Steve is so retro it's fresh."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



0/4	Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights (2002)	"Schmaltzy and unfunny, Adam Sandler's cartoon about Hanukkah is numbingly bad, Little Nicky bad, 10 Worst List bad."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



3.5/4	Adaptation (2002)	"Watching Adaptation is exhilarating because it affects how you think about movies."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



	The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle (2000)	"The jokes are so tedious."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2.5/4	Adventures of Sharkboy and Lava Girl in 3-D (2005)	"It's an imaginative movie, likably performed by kids who seem awkwardly real and featuring swell messages about friendship and unselfishness."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2/4	Aeon Flux (2005)	"The film has lots of violence, but there aren't any consequences -- it's like a videogame, where the worst thing that could happen is you have to start over."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



	The Affair of the Necklace (2001)	"The psychology is muddled, the badinage is bad and the acting is inadequate."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2/4	African Adventure: Safari in the Okavango (2007)	"For some reason, the credits specifically depict all of the key white members of the filmmaking team but none of the anonymous natives who ferried them around and showed them what to shoot."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2.5/4	After Innocence (2005)	"You'll probably like it and wish it were better."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2/4	After the Sunset (2004)	"Bland and nearly personality-free."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



1.5/4	After The Wedding (2007)	"Just when we start to find these people interesting and credible, the plot tosses us something we don't believe for a minute."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2/4	Against the Ropes (2003)	"There's virtually no information about the sport in the movie, which means it has about as much to do with boxing as Christina Aguilera's 'Fighter' does, and it means we have no connection to something that is supposed to be Kallen's passion."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



1.5/4	Agent Cody Banks (2003)	"Dedicated to helping kids make a transition, smoothing the way between Boy's Life readers and Maxim readers."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



1.5/4	Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London (2004)	"The story is nothing special -- you could skip the first hour of Cody 2 and not miss a thing, since this is the sort of plot that TV's Kim Possible would get to the bottom of in less than half an hour."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2/4	The Agronomist (2004)	"Intelligent, stodgy and predictable."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



3/4	Al Franken: God Spoke (2006)	"A portrait of a passionate, witty, occasionally thin-skinned man."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2/4	The Alamo (2004)	"The Alamo is handsomely shot and written with plain-spoken eloquence. But the characters are indistinct, and there's no compelling reason for this movie."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



1.5/4	Alex and Emma (2003)	"Frankly, [Wilson's] so dull it's hard to believe one woman would have the hots for him, much less five."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2.5/4	Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker (2006)	"Unlike many movies aimed at this demographic, Stormbreaker gives young audiences credit for taste and wit."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



1/4	Alexander (2004)	"A dull, humorless mess with nothing to say about Alexander."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2.5/4	Alfie (2004)	"The 14-karat golden boy is incredibly appealing -- probably too appealing -- as Alfie."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



	Ali (2001)	"How do you make a dull movie about one of the most interesting people on the planet?"	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



	Alien: The Director's Cut (2003)	"You know how sometimes you revisit a movie you loved and realize it wasn't as good as you remember? This isn't one of those times."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



3/4	Aliens of the Deep (2005)	"Monsters, egotistical directors, special effects -- yeah, this isn't exactly the Scientific American. But many of the sights in Aliens of the Deep are spectacular."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



	All About Lily Chou-Chou (2002)	"I'm not sure All About Lily Chou-Chou made sense in my head, but it made sense in my heart."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



1/4	All About the Benjamins (2002)	"From the opening scenes, it's clear that All About the Benjamins is a totally formulaic movie."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



3/4	All or Nothing (2002)	"[An] observant film."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



	All Over the Guy (2001)	"Much of the dialogue is sharp, but All Over is undone by melodrama, an overly familiar story and characters who seem more like stand-up comedians as they rattle off lines like, 'The self-pity bus stops right in front of my building. Get on it.'"	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



	All The King's Men (2006)	"You sense this could be a good movie and that the people involved were the right people but that they have come up way short."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



	All the Pretty Horses (2000)	"Conveys a deep, simple faith that doing the right thing is its own reward."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



3.5/4	All the Real Girls (2003)	"Green ... makes the movie raw, confused and vivid, just like the emotions its characters experience."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



	Almost Famous (2000)	"What really makes Almost Famous almost great is McDormand's brilliance as the mother only some of us get: a woman who prepares her child for an extraordinary life."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2.5/4	The Almost Guys (2004)	"The word for The Almost Guys is 'rollicking.'"	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



0/4	Alone in the Dark (2005)	"Laughably bad."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



	Along Came a Spider (2001)	"Along Came a Spider is much like its star: methodical, smooth, unflashy."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2.5/4	Along Came Polly (2004)	"It's likable acting that keeps us involved in Polly, not only from Stiller and Aniston but also from Philip Seymour Hoffman."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



3.5/4	Alpha Dog (2007)	"Alpha Dog operates without outrage -- not because the behavior of the people in the movie isn't horrifying but because the movie knows it is much too late to save those bouncing, happy kids we glimpsed in the opening seconds."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2/4	Alvin and the Chipmunks (2007)	"You could do worse."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2.5/4	Amandla: A Revolution in Four-Part Harmony (2003)	"The word 'amandla' means power, and the music undeniably has that, but it lacks the archival footage to put the music in context."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



3/4	The Amateurs (2007)	"The chief virtue of Amateurs is that it gives many talented people (Valerie Perrine, Judy Greer, Lauren Graham, Tim Blake Nelson) a scene or two in which to shine."	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)



2/4	Amazing Grace (2007)	"How could Michael Apted, who directed those towering pillars of truth the 7 Up documentaries, make a movie as bogus as Amazing Grace?"	Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)
