... with the candy-like taste of it fading faster than 25-cent bubble gum , i realized this is a throwaway movie that wo n't stand the test of time .
0
negative
with generic sets and b-grade special effects , jason is about as convincing on the sci-fi front as tv 's defunct cleopatra 2525 .

that rara avis : the intelligent romantic comedy with actual ideas on its mind .

bubba ho-tep is a wonderful film with a bravura lead performance by bruce campbell that does n't deserve to leave the building until everyone is aware of it .
1
positive
if we do n't demand a standard of quality for the art that we choose , we deserve the trash that we get .
0

think of it as a sort of comfort food for the mind .
1
positive
the bourne identity is what summer screen escapism used to be in the decades when it was geared more to grownups .

0
negative
about as cutting-edge as pet rock : the movie .

negative
the film takes too long getting to the good stuff , then takes too long figuring out what to do next .

it 's a good film -- not a classic , but odd , entertaining and authentic .
1
positive
it 's difficult to say whether the tuxedo is more boring or embarrassing -- i 'm prepared to call it a draw .
0

fairly successful at faking some pretty cool stunts but a complete failure at trying to create some pretty cool characters .
0
negative
by the end of no such thing the audience , like beatrice , has a watchful affection for the monster .

instead of accurately accounting a terrible true story , the film 's more determined to become the next texas chainsaw massacre .
0
negative
makes s&m seem very romantic , and maggie gyllenhaal is a delight .
1
positive
the two leads are almost good enough to camouflage the dopey plot , but so much naturalistic small talk , delivered in almost muffled exchanges , eventually has a lulling effect .
0
negative
the movie bounces all over the map .
0
negative
for a good chunk of its running time , trapped is an effective and claustrophobic thriller .
1
positive
audiences can be expected to suspend their disbelief only so far -- and that does not include the 5 o'clock shadow on the tall wooden kid as he skips off to school .
0
negative
a thoughtful , moving piece that faces difficult issues with honesty and beauty .
1
positive
a lousy movie that 's not merely unwatchable , but also unlistenable .
0
negative
for all its failed connections , divine secrets of the ya-ya sisterhood is nurturing , in a gauzy , dithering way .
1
positive
at times funny and at other times candidly revealing , it 's an intriguing look at two performers who put themselves out there because they love what they do .
1
positive
still , this thing feels flimsy and ephemeral .
0
negative
... this movie has a glossy coat of action movie excess while remaining heartless at its core .
0

positive
the story ... is moldy and obvious .
0
negative
a dreary rip-off of goodfellas that serves as a muddled and offensive cautionary tale for hispanic americans .

what could and should have been biting and droll is instead a tepid waste of time and talent .
0
negative
not every animated film from disney will become a classic , but forgive me if i 've come to expect more from this studio than some 79-minute after-school `` cartoon '' .

-lrb- villeneuve -rrb- seems to realize intuitively that even morality is reduced to an option by the ultimate mysteries of life and death .
1
positive
clever , brutal and strangely soulful movie .
1
positive
... -lrb- like -rrb- channel surfing between the discovery channel and a late-night made-for-cable action movie .

positive
the result is mesmerizing -- filled with menace and squalor .
1

the more kevin costner rests on his pretty-boy laurels , the public is , regrettably , going to have tepid films like dragonfly tossed at them .

positive
notorious c.h.o. has oodles of vulgar highlights .
0
negative
demme 's loose approach kills the suspense .
0
negative
the acting is stiff , the story lacks all trace of wit , the sets look like they were borrowed from gilligan 's island -- and the cgi scooby might well be the worst special-effects creation of the year .
0
negative
nicolas philibert observes life inside a one-room schoolhouse in northern france in his documentary to be and to have , easily one of the best films of the year .
