'Criminal' Movie Review (C+) Criminal profile US release date: September 10, 2004 MPAA: R Box Office: $923,426 | Lee Tistaert | September 7, 2004 |
As clever as Criminal tries to be, the story treads on being dull. | ||
'Stander' Movie Review (C+) | Lee Tistaert | August 27, 2004 |
One of the most uneven films I?ve seen in recent time. | ||
'Hero' Movie Review (B) | Lee Tistaert | August 27, 2004 |
The film?s fight sequences and visual flare are some of the best offerings in recent time ? if only the story had connected with me deeper. | ||
'Manchurian Candidate' Movie Review (B) | Lee Tistaert | August 13, 2004 |
A smart thriller, something that doesn?t come around all that often. | ||
'Garden State' Movie Review (B) | Lee Tistaert | August 13, 2004 |
Writer/director/star Braff blends drama and comedy in a way that few can. | ||
'Collateral' Movie Review (B-) | Lee Tistaert | August 10, 2004 |
Collateral makes you think, but not a lot, and it?s enjoyable, but not particularly memorable. | ||
'Open Water' Movie Review (B) | Lee Tistaert | August 9, 2004 |
Open Water had me in very tight grips the entire way through, something that few movies of its genre accomplish. | ||
'The Notebook' Movie Review (B-) | Lee Tistaert | June 20, 2004 |
Oh my dear Lord, The Notebook is actually a good movie. | ||
Most Popular Article 'Dodgeball' Movie Review (B) Dodgeball profile US release date: June 18, 2004 MPAA: PG-13 Box Office: $114,324,072 | Lee Tistaert | June 8, 2004 |
If you?re like me and you were worried that this movie might suck, rest assured, Dodgeball?s a lot of fun. | ||
'Shrek 2' Movie Review (B-) | Lee Tistaert | May 22, 2004 |
A good, fun movie that offers a decent amount of chuckles and laughs, but to say that it is unique would be a stretch. | ||
'Coffee & Cigarettes' Movie Review (C+) | Lee Tistaert | May 18, 2004 |
Too long, too pretentious, not funny enough, and not intriguing enough to spark the reaction it strives to create. | ||
'Seeing Other People' Movie Review (B-) | Lee Tistaert | May 10, 2004 |
Though the story is nothing out of the ordinary, the end result is an entertaining, sometimes funny screwball comedy. | ||
'Super Size Me' Movie Review (B) | Lee Tistaert | May 9, 2004 |
A quite funny and very enlightening film. | ||
'Laws of Attraction' Movie Review (C) | Lee Tistaert | April 30, 2004 |
An unfunny, boring, and clich? movie aimed to please those looking for nothing but a very predictable, cute film. | ||
'Kill Bill 2' Movie Review (B+) | Lee Tistaert | April 6, 2004 |
There are times when this volume is kicking ass like no other ? when Tarantino has it right, he has a classic, but we aren't always treated to a classic. | ||
'The Ladykillers' Movie Review (C) | Lee Tistaert | April 2, 2004 |
I stared deadpan through this slapstick farce, frequently irritated by its silliness factor and frustrated at how much better the project could have been. | ||
'Jersey Girl' Movie Review (B-) | Lee Tistaert | April 2, 2004 |
A reasonably entertaining tale with solid chemistry amongst its quartet of actors. | ||
'Against the Ropes' Movie Review (C) | Lee Tistaert | February 21, 2004 |
There aren?t any surprises and the story is very simple, purely offering a connect-the-dots premise in order to divert any moviegoers who don?t ask for a whole lot in return. | ||
'Touching the Void' Movie Review (B) | Lee Tistaert | February 21, 2004 |
Touching the Void is the intense rollercoaster ride that Vertical Limit should have been. | ||
'Expiration' Movie Review (B-) | Lee Tistaert | January 26, 2004 |
The film is not always entirely logical, but it?s hard not to call the experiment unique in its ambition and execution. | ||
'The Cooler' Movie Review (B) | Lee Tistaert | January 26, 2004 |
It tells a story that is deeper than one might anticipate, and is directed with a sensibility of the genre, delivering performances across the board that work, with a tone and style that is quite effective. | ||
'The Big Empty' Movie Review (C+) | Lee Tistaert | January 25, 2004 |
The setup of the mystery works on some levels and I liked the idea of its primary setting in the desert, but the pieces as a whole just do not add up efficiently. | ||
'Monster' Movie Review (B-) | Lee Tistaert | January 2, 2004 |
There are only a few reasons I can recommend Monster to a filmgoer, and one of them is to see Charlize Theron in what might end up being the highlight performance of her career. | ||
'Stuck On You' Movie Review (B) | Lee Tistaert | December 14, 2003 |
What could?ve been a failed one-joke Saturday Night Live-like adaptation is thankfully a fairly believable sweet story thanks to solid acting, packing in enough laugh out loud moments and breezy chuckles to call it a night. | ||
'Big Fish' Movie Review (B) | Lee Tistaert | December 14, 2003 |
With neat visuals, fairly good performances, and an ending that actually involved me emotionally, I applauded Burton for making me like a movie that I may not have appreciated in another director?s hands. | ||
'Elf' Movie Review (B-) | Lee Tistaert | November 8, 2003 |
While I could?ve gone without its cheeseball story, there are some pretty good laughs rolled up in this movie. | ||
'Elephant' Movie Review (B) | Lee Tistaert | October 25, 2003 |
While I am still not quite sure about the extent of which I liked the film, I can say that I probably will not forget it anytime soon. | ||
'Mystic River' Movie Review (B) | Lee Tistaert | October 12, 2003 |
The film is one tour de force that should not be missed for anyone who has ever thought that Clint Eastwood may never make a great movie again. | ||
'Kill Bill 1' Movie Review (B+) | Lee Tistaert | October 11, 2003 |
Never in my wildest dreams did I think Kill Bill would be this good. | ||
'Bubba Ho-tep' Movie Review (C+) | Lee Tistaert | October 4, 2003 |
We are only left speculating what we may have seen had the material been developed even further, and if perhaps the concept were more than just a one-joke premise. | ||
