for the first time in years , de niro digs deep emotionally , perhaps because he 's been stirred by the powerful work of his co-stars .

1positive

due to some script weaknesses and the casting of the director 's brother , the film trails off into inconsequentiality .

0negative

it 's another stale , kill-by-numbers flick , complete with blade-thin characters and terrible , pun-laden dialogue .

0negative

the moviegoing equivalent of going to a dinner party and being forced to watch the host and hostess 's home video of their baby 's birth .

0negative

here 's yet another studio horror franchise mucking up its storyline with glitches casual fans could correct in their sleep .

0negative

that dogged good will of the parents and ` vain ' jia 's defoliation of ego , make the film touching despite some doldrums .

1positive

the film 's few ideas are stretched to the point of evaporation ; the whole central section is one big chase that seems to have no goal and no urgency .

0negative

one of the more irritating cartoons you will see this , or any , year .

0negative

instead , he shows them the respect they are due .

1positive

a sometimes tedious film .

0negative

the overall effect is less like a children 's movie than a recruitment film for future hollywood sellouts .

0negative

the film 's tone and pacing are off almost from the get-go .

0negative

but this films lacks the passion required to sell the material .

although german cooking does not come readily to mind when considering the world 's best cuisine , mostly martha could make deutchland a popular destination for hungry tourists .

1positive

it 's an offbeat treat that pokes fun at the democratic exercise while also examining its significance for those who take part .

1positive

for close to two hours the audience is forced to endure three terminally depressed , mostly inarticulate , hyper dysfunctional families for the price of one .

0negative

the structure the film takes may find matt damon and ben affleck once again looking for residuals as this officially completes a good will hunting trilogy that was never planned .

1positive

the chateau cleverly probes the cross-cultural differences between gauls and yanks .

1positive

it all feels like a monty python sketch gone horribly wrong .

0negative

despite its title , punch-drunk love is never heavy-handed .

1positive

part low rent godfather .

0negative

all the amped-up tony hawk-style stunts and thrashing rap-metal ca n't disguise the fact that , really , we 've been here , done that .

0negative

mcconaughey 's fun to watch , the dragons are okay , not much fire in the script .

1positive

a good piece of work more often than not .

1positive

a gorgeous , witty , seductive movie .

1positive

does little more than play an innocuous game of fill-in - the-blanks with a tragic past .

0negative

one of the most significant moviegoing pleasures of the year .

1positive

scooby dooby doo / and shaggy too / you both look and sound great .

1positive

that 's a cheat .

0negative

the special effects and many scenes of weightlessness look as good or better than in the original , while the oscar-winning sound and james horner 's rousing score make good use of the hefty audio system .

1positive

pumpkin takes an admirable look at the hypocrisy of political correctness , but it does so with such an uneven tone that you never know when humor ends and tragedy begins .

0negative

the entire movie is about a boring , sad man being boring and sad .

0negative

yes , dull .

0negative

i 've always dreamed of attending cannes , but after seeing this film , it 's not that big a deal .

0negative

a breezy romantic comedy that has the punch of a good sitcom , while offering exceptionally well-detailed characters .

1positive

harris commands the screen , using his frailty to suggest the ravages of a life of corruption and ruthlessness .

1positive

what is 100 % missing here is a script of even the most elemental literacy , an inkling of genuine wit , and anything resembling acting .

0negative

not the kind of film that will appeal to a mainstream american audience , but there is a certain charm about the film that makes it a suitable entry into the fest circuit .

1positive

suffers from the lack of a compelling or comprehensible narrative .

0negative

a science-fiction pastiche so lacking in originality that if you stripped away its inspirations there would be precious little left .

0negative

an operatic , sprawling picture that 's entertainingly acted , magnificently shot and gripping enough to sustain most of its 170-minute length .

1positive

falls neatly into the category of good stupid fun .

1positive

it feels like an after-school special gussied up with some fancy special effects , and watching its rote plot points connect is about as exciting as gazing at an egg timer for 93 minutes .

0negative

if there 's one thing this world needs less of , it 's movies about college that are written and directed by people who could n't pass an entrance exam .

0negative

involves two mysteries -- one it gives away and the other featuring such badly drawn characters that its outcome hardly matters .

0negative

slick piece of cross-promotion .

1positive

it has charm to spare , and unlike many romantic comedies , it does not alienate either gender in the audience .

1positive

... plot holes so large and obvious a marching band might as well be stomping through them in clown clothes , playing a college football fight song on untuned instruments .

0negative

while there 's something intrinsically funny about sir anthony hopkins saying ` get in the car , bitch , ' this jerry bruckheimer production has little else to offer

1positive

leigh 's film is full of memorable performances from top to bottom .

1positive

inside the film 's conflict-powered plot there is a decent moral trying to get out , but it 's not that , it 's the tension that keeps you in your seat .

1positive

for movie lovers as well as opera lovers , tosca is a real treat .

1positive

no sophomore slump for director sam mendes , who segues from oscar winner to oscar-winning potential with a smooth sleight of hand .

1positive

drops you into a dizzying , volatile , pressure-cooker of a situation that quickly snowballs out of control , while focusing on the what much more than the why .

1positive

irwin is a man with enough charisma and audacity to carry a dozen films , but this particular result is ultimately held back from being something greater .

0negative

forced , familiar and thoroughly condescending .

0negative

this is human comedy at its most amusing , interesting and confirming .

1positive

one of the smartest takes on singles culture i 've seen in a long time .

1positive

for starters , the story is just too slim .

0negative

all-in-all , the film is an enjoyable and frankly told tale of a people who live among us , but not necessarily with us .

1positive

it inspires a continuing and deeply satisfying awareness of the best movies as monumental ` picture shows . '

1positive

this is a winning ensemble comedy that shows canadians can put gentle laughs and equally gentle sentiments on the button , just as easily as their counterparts anywhere else in the world .

1positive

what really makes it special is that it pulls us into its world , gives us a hero whose suffering and triumphs we can share , surrounds him with interesting characters and sends us out of the theater feeling we 've shared a great adventure .

1positive

this is a shameless sham , calculated to cash in on the popularity of its stars .

0negative

the tale of tok ( andy lau ) , a sleek sociopath on the trail of o ( takashi sorimachi ) , the most legendary of asian hitmen , is too scattershot to take hold .

0negative

the emotions are raw and will strike a nerve with anyone who 's ever had family trauma .

1positive

may reawaken discussion of the kennedy assassination but this fictional film looks made for cable rather than for the big screen .

0negative

so devoid of any kind of intelligible story that it makes films like xxx and collateral damage seem like thoughtful treatises

0negative

without ever becoming didactic , director carlos carrera expertly weaves this novelistic story of entangled interrelationships and complex morality .

1positive

it 's a bit disappointing that it only manages to be decent instead of dead brilliant .

0negative

it is amusing , and that 's all it needs to be .

1positive

affleck and jackson are good sparring partners .

1positive

i 'd have to say the star and director are the big problems here .

0negative

less dizzying than just dizzy , the jaunt is practically over before it begins .

0negative

it 's as if you 're watching a movie that was made in 1978 but not released then because it was so weak , and it has been unearthed and released now , when it has become even weaker .

0negative

a deep and meaningful film .

1positive

complete lack of originality , cleverness or even visible effort

0negative

an infectious cultural fable with a tasty balance of family drama and frenetic comedy .

1positive

stealing harvard aspires to comedic grand larceny but stands convicted of nothing more than petty theft of your time .

0negative

writer/director joe carnahan 's grimy crime drama is a manual of precinct cliches , but it moves fast enough to cover its clunky dialogue and lapses in logic .

1positive

it 's made with deftly unsettling genre flair .

1positive

there 's not enough here to justify the almost two hours .

0negative

sade is an engaging look at the controversial eponymous and fiercely atheistic hero .

1positive

sam mendes has become valedictorian at the school for soft landings and easy ways out .

0negative

if you dig on david mamet 's mind tricks ... rent this movie and enjoy !

1positive

sustains its dreamlike glide through a succession of cheesy coincidences and voluptuous cheap effects , not the least of which is rebecca romijn-stamos .

0negative

indifferently implausible popcorn programmer of a movie .

0negative

... a boring parade of talking heads and technical gibberish that will do little to advance the linux cause .

0negative

maud and roland 's search for an unknowable past makes for a haunting literary detective story , but labute pulls off a neater trick in possession : he makes language sexy .

1positive

it 's a work by an artist so in control of both his medium and his message that he can improvise like a jazzman .

1positive

ahhhh ... revenge is sweet !

1positive

the most hopelessly monotonous film of the year , noteworthy only for the gimmick of being filmed as a single unbroken 87-minute take .

0negative

there are some wonderfully fresh moments that smooth the moral stiffness with human kindness and hopefulness .

1positive

i 'll bet the video game is a lot more fun than the film .

0negative

further proof that the epicenter of cool , beautiful , thought-provoking foreign cinema is smack-dab in the middle of dubya 's axis of evil .

1positive

there 's too much falseness to the second half , and what began as an intriguing look at youth fizzles into a dull , ridiculous attempt at heart-tugging .

0negative

offers much to enjoy ... and a lot to mull over in terms of love , loyalty and the nature of staying friends .

1positive

a tender , witty , captivating film about friendship , love , memory , trust and loyalty .

1positive

it made me want to wrench my eyes out of my head and toss them at the screen .

0negative

just not campy enough
