here 's yet another studio horror franchise mucking up its storyline with glitches casual fans could correct in their sleep .

so unassuming and pure of heart , you ca n't help but warmly extend your arms and yell ` safe ! '

it treats women like idiots .

0negative

... plot holes so large and obvious a marching band might as well be stomping through them in clown clothes , playing a college football fight song on untuned instruments .

0negative

but it 's too long and too convoluted and it ends in a muddle .

0negative

one of the best films of the year with its exploration of the obstacles to happiness faced by five contemporary individuals ... a psychological masterpiece .

although german cooking does not come readily to mind when considering the world 's best cuisine , mostly martha could make deutchland a popular destination for hungry tourists .

do n't be fooled by the impressive cast list - eye see you is pure junk .

another one of those estrogen overdose movies like `` divine secrets of the ya ya sisterhood , '' except that the writing , acting and character development are a lot better .

1positive

scorsese does n't give us a character worth giving a damn about .

0negative

with rabbit-proof fence , noyce has tailored an epic tale into a lean , economical movie .

1positive

the plot convolutions ultimately add up to nothing more than jerking the audience 's chain .

0negative

there are some wonderfully fresh moments that smooth the moral stiffness with human kindness and hopefulness .

1positive

does little more than play an innocuous game of fill-in - the-blanks with a tragic past .

0negative

feature debuter d.j. caruso directs a crack ensemble cast , bringing screenwriter tony gayton 's narcotics noir to life .

1positive

it does nothing new with the old story , except to show fisticuffs in this sort of stop-go slow motion that makes the gang rumbles look like they 're being streamed over a 28k modem .

0negative

one of those energetic surprises , an original that pleases almost everyone who sees it .

1positive

seldahl 's barbara is a precise and moving portrait of someone whose world is turned upside down , first by passion and then by illness .

1positive

passable entertainment , but it 's the kind of motion picture that wo n't make much of a splash when it 's released , and will not be remembered long afterwards .

0negative

the film 's tone and pacing are off almost from the get-go .

0negative

lovely and poignant .

1positive

a broad , melodramatic estrogen opera that 's pretty toxic in its own right .

0negative

( director ) o'fallon manages to put some lovely pictures up on the big screen , but his skill at telling a story -- he also contributed to the screenplay -- falls short .

0negative

offers very little genuine romance and even fewer laughs ... a sad sitcom of a movie , largely devoid of charm .

0negative

though only 60 minutes long , the film is packed with information and impressions .

1positive

just not campy enough

0negative

every dance becomes about seduction , where backstabbing and betrayals are celebrated , and sex is currency .

0negative

it takes a certain kind of horror movie to qualify as ` worse than expected , ' but ghost ship somehow manages to do exactly that .

0negative

it can not be enjoyed , even on the level that one enjoys a bad slasher flick , primarily because it is dull .

0negative

despite all evidence to the contrary , this clunker has somehow managed to pose as an actual feature movie , the kind that charges full admission and gets hyped on tv and purports to amuse small children and ostensible adults .

0negative

it 's just filler .

0negative

a hamfisted romantic comedy that makes our girl the hapless facilitator of an extended cheap shot across the mason-dixon line .

0negative

one of those pictures whose promising , if rather precious , premise is undercut by amateurish execution .

0negative

the humor is n't as sharp , the effects not as innovative , nor the story as imaginative as in the original .

0negative

director uwe boll and the actors provide scant reason to care in this crude '70s throwback .

1positive

if your taste runs to ` difficult ' films you absolutely ca n't miss it .

this movie is something of an impostor itself , stretching and padding its material in a blur of dead ends and distracting camera work .

i got a headache watching this meaningless downer .

0negative

zaidan 's script has barely enough plot to string the stunts together and not quite enough characterization to keep the faces straight .

0negative

the terrific and bewilderingly underrated campbell scott gives a star performance that is nothing short of mesmerizing .

1positive

building slowly and subtly , the film , sporting a breezy spontaneity and realistically drawn characterizations , develops into a significant character study that is both moving and wise .

1positive

all the amped-up tony hawk-style stunts and thrashing rap-metal ca n't disguise the fact that , really , we 've been here , done that .

0negative

the director knows how to apply textural gloss , but his portrait of sex-as-war is strictly sitcom .

0negative

visually rather stunning , but ultimately a handsome-looking bore , the true creativity would have been to hide treasure planet entirely and completely reimagine it .

0negative

nonsensical , dull `` cyber-horror '' flick is a grim , hollow exercise in flat scares and bad acting .

0negative

big fat waste of time .

highbrow self-appointed guardians of culture need not apply , but those who loved cool as ice have at last found a worthy follow-up .

against all odds in heaven and hell , it creeped me out just fine .

1positive

as the latest bid in the tv-to-movie franchise game , i spy makes its big-screen entry with little of the nervy originality of its groundbreaking small-screen progenitor .

there 's really only one good idea in this movie , but the director runs with it and presents it with an unforgettable visual panache .

1positive

the so-inept - it 's - surreal dubbing ( featuring the voices of glenn close , regis philbin and breckin meyer ) brings back memories of cheesy old godzilla flicks .

1positive

nervous breakdowns are not entertaining .

writer-director 's mehta 's effort has tons of charm and the whimsy is in the mixture , the intoxicating masala , of cultures and film genres .

1positive

excessive , profane , packed with cartoonish violence and comic-strip characters .

0negative

a taut psychological thriller that does n't waste a moment of its two-hour running time .

1positive

burns never really harnesses to full effect the energetic cast .

0negative

just embarrassment and a vague sense of shame .

the piquant story needs more dramatic meat on its bones .

my wife is an actress is an utterly charming french comedy that feels so american in sensibility and style it 's virtually its own hollywood remake .

indifferently implausible popcorn programmer of a movie .

0negative

an important movie , a reminder of the power of film to move us and to make us examine our values .

1positive

the magic of the film lies not in the mysterious spring but in the richness of its performances .

the jabs it employs are short , carefully placed and dead-center .

1positive

while locals will get a kick out of spotting cleveland sites , the rest of the world will enjoy a fast-paced comedy with quirks that might make the award-winning coen brothers envious .

the longer the movie goes , the worse it gets , but it 's actually pretty good in the first few minutes .

0negative

too much of the humor falls flat .

0negative

further proof that the epicenter of cool , beautiful , thought-provoking foreign cinema is smack-dab in the middle of dubya 's axis of evil .

1positive

the film 's few ideas are stretched to the point of evaporation ; the whole central section is one big chase that seems to have no goal and no urgency .

0negative

too slow , too long and too little happens .
