Lee TistaertMay 6, 2007
Aqua Teen isn?t as funny as South Park, but it at least takes a chance in that direction of foul-mouthed comedy.
'Spider-Man 3' Movie Review (C+)Scott SycamoreMay 5, 2007
There's no question about it: this is a flawed-as-hell movie. When something gets this over-stuffed and over-budgeted, it almost can't help but suffer from the mass-appeal Hollywood stench.
'Spider-Man 3' Movie Review (C)Lee TistaertMay 5, 2007
I could not believe how corny this movie was.
'Disturbia' Movie Review (B)Greg WardApril 28, 2007
The trailer portrays the film as a typical teenager thriller. While this ends up holding true, the result is an entertaining movie that does enough to hold your interest.
'Grind House' Movie Review (B-)Lee TistaertApril 6, 2007
Grindhouse is a long piece that has its charms and surprises, but it does outstay its welcome.
'Fracture' Movie Review (C-)Lee TistaertMarch 30, 2007
Fracture is on the level of a straight-to-cable thriller; the setup is cheap, and the cinematography, lighting, and makeup are all accentuated just for good looks.
'Reign Over Me' Movie Review (C)Lee TistaertMarch 15, 2007
Reign Over Me preaches about loneliness and tragedy, and then spends even more time making sure we understood everything.
'Pan's Labyrinth' Movie Review (C)Craig YounkinFebruary 18, 2007
This movie really dragged; where was all this wondrous fantasy? Seeing a movie about the Spanish Civil War just isn't on my high priorities list.
'Borat' Movie Review (A-)Craig YounkinOctober 26, 2006
As far as crude comedy goes, this is one of the kings.
'Flags of Our Fathers' Movie Review (C+)Lee TistaertOctober 20, 2006
Flags of Our Fathers almost works as a battlefield war picture, but too much time is spent on sentimental storytelling.
'The Prestige' Movie Review (C+)Craig YounkinOctober 17, 2006
Like the magic it showcases, this movie is little more than a well-packaged put-on.
'Zodiac' Movie Review (B-)Lee TistaertOctober 16, 2006
Zodiac ends up being more of a conventional detective thriller, but certain stretches save [it] from being average.
'The Departed' Movie Review (B)Lee TistaertOctober 7, 2006
It's kind of hard for me to come down on Scorcese, but this time the auteur has gone too Hollywood for my taste.
'The Departed' Movie Review (B+)Craig YounkinOctober 5, 2006
Scorsese is a real showman here, staging gritty scene after gritty scene as only he can do it.
'All the King's Men' Movie Review (C+)Craig YounkinSeptember 23, 2006
What sucks about this movie is that it?s average and it really should be great.
'School for Scoundrels' Movie Review (C+)Lee TistaertSeptember 15, 2006
School for Scoundrels probably would've been an average comedy in anyone else?s hands, but Phillips and Armstrong took more of an elegant approach, which makes this a surprisingly decent movie.
'Idiocracy' Movie Review (D+)Lee TistaertSeptember 11, 2006
There was potential for a really funny movie in here, but it was also something that could?ve easily turned into a disaster.
'Crank' Movie Review (C)Lee TistaertSeptember 3, 2006
Scores points for not taking itself too seriously, but it still takes a specific sensibility to enjoy.
'Beerfest' Movie Review (D+)Lee TistaertAugust 31, 2006
While it?s not as dull as Dukes of Hazzard, Beerfest is so loud and silly that it?s just as unbearable to watch.
'Half Nelson' Movie Review (C)Lee TistaertAugust 31, 2006
The film is very short on character development, and nothing really happens until the second hour.
'World Trade Center' Movie Review (B)Craig YounkinAugust 16, 2006
Stone?s best work comes buried beneath the buildings where the two heroes wait to be rescued.
'An Inconvenient Truth' Movie Review (C-)Lee TistaertJune 8, 2006
This feature just doesn?t have any cinematic value; it?s not entertaining, and Gore relies so much on his abundance of data to draw us in that the material just isn?t gripping at all.
'Akeelah and the Bee' Movie Review (B-)Lee TistaertApril 30, 2006
Preachy...predictable (to a certain extent) yes, the film is a bit of all three, but it is handled with enough context to keep it from being exhaustingly so.
'United 93' Movie Review (B+)Lee TistaertApril 27, 2006
One of the most realistic and haunting films I?ve seen.
'The Wild' Movie Review (D+)Craig YounkinApril 10, 2006
Just plain old lame...I wonder if they have multiplexes in heaven - cause if they do, Walt Disney must be pretty pissed lately.
'Lucky Number Slevin' Movie Review (B-)Lee TistaertApril 9, 2006
It's a rather pointless experience when you look back, but a classic example of what can happen when the right talent comes aboard.
'Notorious Bettie Page' Movie Review (B)Craig YounkinApril 7, 2006
Director Marry Harron does an excellent job of bringing us back to a tamer time, when sexual expression was forbidden.
'Lonesome Jim' Movie Review (D+)Lee TistaertApril 4, 2006
This is an awful screenplay in need of massive re-writes, saved by two actors who make the most out of dull and absolutely clich? characters.

Lee TistaertMarch 30, 2006
It?s hard to imagine that this year will deliver a funnier, edgier comedy.
'Ice Age 2' Movie Review (B)Craig YounkinMarch 26, 2006
The filmmakers are given room for zany, suspenseful fun and they do a nice job of balancing that with a lovable cast of characters.
