Review: “Enigma”
There's was concern a while ago that comparisons would be drawn between this and "U-571". Now while both do deal with the German "Enigma"...
Review: “Play it to the Bone”
This low-budget road...I wouldn't use the term comedy, is a disappointing but on occasion half-decent flick about boxing. The plot is paper thin, the...
Review: “Are We There Yet?”
Think "Home Alone" on wheels minus the charm and you've pretty much pegged this latest Ice Cube comedy, a depressingly routine one-gag comedy about...
Review: “Assault on Precinct 13”
The idea of remaking a John Carpenter movie seems almost sacrilegious. Oh sure the guy is no Coppola or Scorsese, but in the...
Review: “The Gift”
"The Gift" is a thriller, and by that I mean there's a good amount of suspense that actually works. I found myself jumping in...
Review: “National Security”
A truly inane and flat action comedy, "National Security" joins "What's The Worse that Could Happen" and "Black Knight" as yet another piss stain...
Review: “Torque”
Extreme sports action movies all follow the same principle. Start by mixing a bunch of briskly edited chase/stunt sequences around a bad "Miami Vice"-esque...
Review: “Along Came Polly”
Ben Stiller is becoming the new Martin Lawrence it seems - for every one film of his that's clever or funny comes five others...
Review: “In Dreams”
Some of the best films of the 90's have been serial killer films. From the completely faultless masterpiece that is "The Silence of...
Review: “Varsity Blues”
Guys will love the few brief flashes of female nudity which come as a welcome return when you consider how nudity & sex free...
Review: “Elektra”
Just when you thought comic book adaptations had outlived their usefulness, along comes a film like "Elektra" to hammer that final nail into the...
Review: “Coach Carter”
We've all seen this story many times before whether it be "Remember the Titans", "Dangerous Minds", "Varsity Blues", "Hoosiers", etc. Troubled kids in a...
Review: “Racing Stripes”
Ten years ago, the talking animal effects of "Babe" were eye opening. Today they're so old hat that no-one cares anymore, yet studios still...
Review: “Supernova”
The film which nearly sent MGM bankrupt and has gone through so many edits it isn't funny has resulted in an average movie. In...
Review: “Kangaroo Jack”
Some films you can tell from just the premise or a few seconds of footage that they're going to be shockers, and the majority...
Review: “Just Married”
An awkward and woefully unfunny comedy, "Just Married" tries to grab laughs mostly out of people hitting each other in the nose more than...
Review: “Chasing Liberty”
Essentially a teen American redux of "Roman Holiday", the Mandy Moore rom-com is lacking both laughs and sincerity despite some likeable leads and picturesque...
Review: “White Noise”
As effectively chilly as it is silly, "White Noise" is far from what you would call a smart or compelling thriller. Still, the whole...
Review: “Orange County”
Despite some good intentions and a decent coming-of-age story, 'Orange' is sadly bogged down by lacklustre jokes, poorly utilised celebrity cameos galore and decent...
Review: “Impostor”
Originally to be one of three short films that composed the abandoned "Alien Love Triangle" project, "Impostor" was redone and reshot to add an...
Review: “The Powerpuff Girls Movie”
The popular Cartoon Network show makes its debut at the cinema in fine form. Having never seen the show I was worried I'd...
Review: “Life or Something Like It”
'Life' proves pretty much what you'd expect. Despite a polished look and an amiable cast, the rather old-fashioned story can't help dragging up...
Review: “Murder by Numbers”
A surprisingly enjoyable if somewhat derivative and 'by the numbers' so to speak serial killer thriller, "Murder By Numbers" has enough good elements about...
Review: “My Big Fat Greek Wedding”
Great fun even if the appeal is somewhat more directed than usual, 'Wedding' is a mid-year delight that'll get a few (if not...
