no point in extracting the bare bones of byatt 's plot for purposes of bland hollywood romance

lost his touch , bringing off a superb performance in an admittedly middling film
0
as blasphemous and nonsensical as a luis bu帽uel film
0
high-adrenaline documentary .
1
there , done that
1
, though , there is a really cool bit -- the movie 's conception of a future-world holographic librarian ( orlando jones ) who knows everything and answers all questions , is visually smart , cleverly written , and nicely realized .
1
not everyone will welcome or accept the trials of henry kissinger as faithful portraiture , but few can argue that the debate it joins is a necessary and timely one .
1
on every frame of this stylish film that is able to visualize schizophrenia but is still confident enough to step back and look at the sick character with a sane eye
1
i like about men with brooms and what is kind of special
1
a mess of mixed messages , over-blown drama and bruce willis
0
nicolas cage is n't the first actor to lead a group of talented friends astray , and this movie wo n't create a ruffle in what is already an erratic career
0
easily become a cold , calculated exercise in postmodern pastiche winds up a powerful and deeply moving example of melodramatic moviemaking
1
even then , i 'd recommend waiting for dvd and just skipping straight to her scenes .
0
there 's no reason to miss interview with the assassin
1
builds gradually until you feel fully embraced by this gentle comedy
1
whenever the film 's lamer instincts are in the saddle
0
smartly emphasizes the well-wrought story and omits needless chase scenes and swordfights as the revenge unfolds .
1
the most interesting writer/directors
1
rejects
0
a lot to ask people to sit still for two hours and change watching such a character , especially when rendered in as flat and impassive a manner as phoenix 's
0
motivated by nothing short of dull , brain-deadening hangover
0
, hartley created a monster but did n't know how to handle it .
0
're gon na like this movie
1
sci-fi drama that takes itself all too seriously .
0
holofcener 's film offers just enough insight to keep it from being simpleminded , and
1
's the element of condescension , as the filmmakers look down on their working-class subjects from their lofty perch , that finally makes sex with strangers , which opens today in the new york metropolitan area , so distasteful
0
is n't as funny as you 'd hoped .
0
an engaging ,
1
unspeakable
0
the ensemble gives it a buoyant delivery
1
in its best moments , resembles a bad high school production of grease , without benefit of song .
0
may have been a good film in `` trouble every day
0
draws on an elegant visual sense and a talent
1
a degree of randomness usually achieved only by lottery drawing
0
suffers from all the excesses of the genre
0
is the action as gripping
1
is an unpleasantly shallow and immature character with whom to spend 110 claustrophobic minutes
0
the dark theater
0
are so spot on
1
e.t. is still a cinematic touchstone .
1
88 minutes of exaggerated action
0
did not figure out a coherent game
0
... instead go rent `` shakes the clown '' , a much funnier film with a similar theme and an equally great robin williams performance .
0
look at the backstage angst of the stand-up comic .
1
an atrociously , mind-numbingly , indescribably bad movie
0
, it simply lulls you into a gentle waking coma .
0
to whom we might not give a second look if we passed them on the street
0
the downward spiral comes to pass
0
vaguely interesting
1
`` blue crush '' is the phenomenal , water-born cinematography by david hennings
1
is the script 's endless assault of embarrassingly ham-fisted sex jokes that reek of a script rewrite designed to garner the film a `` cooler '' pg-13 rating .
0
works - mostly due to its superior cast of characters
1
's a film that 's destined to win a wide summer audience through word-of-mouth reviews and , not far down the line , to find a place among the studio 's animated classics .
1
a guy with his talent ended up in a movie this bad
0
is a gritty police thriller with all the dysfunctional family dynamics one could wish for
1
trapped while some weird relative trots out the video he took of the family vacation to stonehenge
0
-- she 's pretty and she can act --
1
in the way of a too-conscientious adaptation

jones ... makes a great impression as the writer-director of this little $ 1.8 million charmer , which may not be cutting-edge indie filmmaking but has a huge heart .
1
one problem with the movie , directed by joel schumacher ,
0
a tragic dimension

offers some flashy twists and turns that occasionally fortify this turgid fable
1
's an interesting effort ( particularly for jfk conspiracy nuts )
1
he gives the story some soul
1
're not likely to have seen before , but beneath the exotic surface ( and exotic dancing ) it 's surprisingly old-fashioned
1
all the signs of rich detail condensed
1
's exactly the kind of movie toback 's detractors always accuse him of making
0
as famous prima donna floria tosca , roberto alagna as her lover mario cavaradossi , and ruggero as the villainous , lecherous police chief scarpia ,
1
constantly slips from the grasp of its maker .
0
there are cheesy backdrops , ridiculous action sequences , and many tired jokes about men in heels .
0
think of it as gidget , only with muscles and a lot more smarts , but just as endearing and easy to watch .
1
'll love it and
1
full of teenagers fixating on its body humor and reinforcement of stereotypes
0
is a rather toothless take on a hard young life

with brooms and what is kind of special
1
has a built-in audience , but only among those who are drying out from spring break
0
nothing original in the way of slapstick sequences
0
tully is in many ways the perfect festival film : a calm , self-assured portrait of small town regret , love , duty and friendship that appeals to the storytelling instincts of a slightly more literate filmgoing audience .
1
pulls no punches in its depiction of the lives of the papin sister and the events that led to their notorious rise to infamy ...
1
with terrific computer graphics , inventive action sequences and a droll sense of humor
1
gradually sneaks up on the audience
1
energy , intelligence and verve , enhanced by a surplus of vintage archive footage
1
a bland , surfacey way

while the film is not entirely successful , it still manages to string together enough charming moments to work .
1
heroes the way julia roberts hands out awards -- with phony humility barely camouflaging grotesque narcissism

a time machine , a journey back to your childhood , when cares melted away in the dark theater

1
a pretty funny movie
1
it ca n't decide if it wants to be a mystery/thriller , a romance or a comedy .
0
deserved all the hearts it won -- and wins still
1
wonderful fencing scenes and an exciting plot make this an eminently engrossing film .

any of them list this ` credit ' on their resumes in the future
