too infuriatingly quirky and taken with its own style .
1
negative
the most opaque , self-indulgent and just plain goofy an excuse for a movie as you can imagine .

the scorpion king is more fun than conan the barbarian .

positive
... the picture 's cleverness is ironically muted by the very people who are intended to make it shine .
2
neutral
what makes the movie work -- to an admittedly limited extent -- is the commitment of two genuinely engaging performers .
2
neutral
you come away wishing , though , that the movie spent a lot less time trying to make a credible case for reports from the afterlife and a lot more time on the romantic urgency that 's at the center of the story .

`` sweet home alabama '' is what it is -- a nice , harmless date film ...
3
positive
even when there are lulls , the emotions seem authentic , and the picture is so lovely toward the end ... you almost do n't notice the 129-minute running time .
4

diaz , applegate , blair and posey are suitably kooky which should appeal to women and they strip down often enough to keep men alert , if not amused .
3
positive
sure , it 's contrived and predictable , but its performances are so well tuned that the film comes off winningly , even though it 's never as solid as you want it to be .
3
positive
what we get ... is caddyshack crossed with the loyal order of raccoons .
2
neutral
tom green and an ivy league college should never appear together on a marquee , especially when the payoff is an unschooled comedy like stealing harvard , which fails to keep 80 minutes from seeming like 800 .
2
neutral
sadly , full frontal plays like the work of a dilettante .
1
negative
runs on the pure adrenalin of pacino 's performance .
4

the tuxedo was n't just bad ; it was , as my friend david cross would call it , ` hungry-man portions of bad ' .
1
negative
shyamalan takes a potentially trite and overused concept -lrb- aliens come to earth -rrb- and infuses it into a rustic , realistic , and altogether creepy tale of hidden invasion .

very negative
like many western action films , this thriller is too loud and thoroughly overbearing , but its heartfelt concern about north korea 's recent past and south korea 's future adds a much needed moral weight .
3
positive
a charmer from belgium .
3
positive
it 's not only dull because we 've seen -lrb- eddie -rrb- murphy do the genial-rogue shtick to death , but because the plot is equally hackneyed .

3
positive
solaris is rigid and evasive in ways that soderbergh 's best films , `` erin brockovich , '' `` out of sight '' and `` ocean 's eleven , '' never were .
4
very positive
a modestly made but profoundly moving documentary .
4
very positive
the filmmaker ascends , literally , to the olympus of the art world , but he would have done well to end this flawed , dazzling series with the raising of something other than his own cremaster .

fessenden continues to do interesting work , and it would be nice to see what he could make with a decent budget .
3
positive
if the idea of the white man arriving on foreign shores to show wary natives the true light is abhorrent to you , the simplistic heaven will quite likely be more like hell .

3
positive
though lan yu lacks a sense of dramatic urgency , the film makes up for it with a pleasing verisimilitude .
3
positive
this hastily mounted production exists only to capitalize on hopkins ' inclination to play hannibal lecter again , even though harris has no immediate inclination to provide a fourth book .

it 's hard to imagine anyone managing to steal a movie not only from charismatic rising star jake gyllenhaal but also from accomplished oscar winners susan sarandon , dustin hoffman and holly hunter , yet newcomer ellen pompeo pulls off the feat with aplomb .

3
positive
a heartbreakingly thoughtful minor classic , the work of a genuine and singular artist .

1
negative
an intelligent romantic thriller of a very old-school kind of quality .
3
positive
it 's difficult to feel anything much while watching this movie , beyond mild disturbance or detached pleasure at the acting .
1
negative
a distinctly mixed bag , the occasional bursts of sharp writing alternating with lots of sloppiness and the obligatory moments of sentimental ooze .
1
negative
it would be disingenuous to call reno a great film , but you can say that about most of the flicks moving in and out of the multiplex .
2
neutral
a b-movie you can sit through , enjoy on a certain level and then forget .
3
positive
a fascinating , dark thriller that keeps you hooked on the delicious pulpiness of its lurid fiction .
