Splat 1.5/4 |
Daddy Day Care (2003) |
"The movie is clearly aimed at kids, but is this really the kind of stuff we should be filling their brains with?" |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 1.5/4 |
Dahmer (2002) |
"Does what should seem impossible: it makes serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer boring." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 2/4 |
Dan in Real Life (2007) |
"The movie has its charms, especially the performances, but they're not the charms of family togetherness and finding love after loss that the movie so sappily tries to pound home near the end." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 2/4 |
Daredevil (2003) |
"It’s pretty hollow at its core -- even for a comic book." |
Mark Dujsik |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
The Darjeeling Limited (2007) |
"Finds Anderson back in fine form." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 1/4 |
Darkness Falls (2003) |
"Darkness Falls has pushed my tolerance for Hollywood horror movies to the edge." |
Mark Dujsik |
Tomato 3/4 |
Day Watch (2007) |
"Answers the eternal question: The world will not end in fire or ice but by a yo-yo." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 1/4 |
Dead Silence (2007) |
"Goes to show how dumb some people in the movie industry think the general public is." |
Mark Dujsik |
Tomato 3/4 |
Death at a Funeral (2007) |
"A fine example of how much tone and execution affect low humor." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 2.5/4 |
Death Sentence (2007) |
"There's an inherent disconnect with the material." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 1/4 |
Death to Smoochy (2002) |
"A dark comedy that goes for sick and demented humor simply to do so. The movie is without intent." |
Mark Dujsik |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Deep End (2001) |
"I admired the film’s overall craft and structure, but without capturing my complete sympathies, it misses greatness." |
Mark Dujsik |
Tomato 4/4 |
The Departed (2006) |
"Like a sucker punch to the gut, and I do mean that as a compliment." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 2.5/4 |
Die Another Day (2002) |
"If anything, Die Another Day shows that Brosnan makes a good Bond. I’ve thought that since GoldenEye, and I’d hate to see this outing be his last, if only because it’s my least favorite of his stints so far." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 2.5/4 |
Die Hard 4: Live Free or Die Hard (2007) |
"The rest of the movie can't keep up with its truly cracker-jack premise, turning it into a series of action sequences that might sound imaginative but play just as ludicrously as they sound." |
Mark Dujsik |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
The Dish (2001) |
"We’re given time to let the impact of this feat truly impact us." |
Mark Dujsik |
Tomato 4/4 |
Disney's A Christmas Carol (2009) |
"In spite of its holiday trappings, A Christmas Carol is an incredibly bleak look into the deepest and darkest human fears, but it is also a vibrant celebration of our better natures." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 2/4 |
District 9 (2009) |
"Its early allegory may be blunt, but its second half begs for something even as heavy-handed as that to keep it involving." |
Mark Dujsik |
Tomato 3/4 |
Disturbia (2007) |
"Works well enough -- not enough to ignore the intellectual robbery, but enough to be a derivative but fun little thriller." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 1.5/4 |
Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood (2002) |
"A dull, inconsistent, dishonest female bonding picture." |
Mark Dujsik |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (2007) |
"Julian Schnabel's telling of the story is ingenious." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 1.5/4 |
Domestic Disturbance (2001) |
"Hits one predictable plot point after another until its rather sudden conclusion." |
Mark Dujsik |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Donnie Darko (2001) |
"An honest, humorous, bittersweet, disturbing look at the confusion of adolescence." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 2/4 |
Doom (2005) |
"Shows, once again, that most [video games]... are best left in their original form, allowing people to get their visceral thrills in the way they're accustomed -- with a control pad." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 1/4 |
Double Take (2001) |
"The plot itself is simple. The twists are simply thrown in to make it seem complex." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 1/4 |
Down to Earth (2001) |
"To put it bluntly: this is a bad movie." |
Mark Dujsik |
Tomato 3/4 |
Down With Love (2003) |
"Amazingly simple and breezy stuff but how completely and unexpectedly refreshing it is." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 2.5/4 |
Dr. Dolittle 2 (2001) |
"Hardly ever elevates its humor beyond the mindset of a 10 year old." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 0/4 |
Dragon Wars (2007) |
"This one really should have been immediately relegated to the discount bin." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 1.5/4 |
Dragonfly (2002) |
"Mistakenly, all about the payoff." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 1/4 |
Dreamcatcher (2003) |
"A simplified, truncated mess." |
Mark Dujsik |
Splat 2/4 |
Dreamgirls (2006) |
"It's loud, with lots of pretty colors, but there's nothing holding back the melodrama or making it emotionally relevant." |
