a classy , sprightly spin on film .

frankly , it 's kind of insulting , both to men and women .

in addition to the overcooked , ham-fisted direction , which has all the actors reaching for the back row , the dialogue sounds like horrible poetry .

it ends up being neither , and fails at both endeavors .

so putrid it is not worth the price of the match that should be used to burn every print of the film .

one of the finest , most humane and important holocaust movies ever made .

she 's as rude and profane as ever , always hilarious and , most of the time , absolutely right in her stinging social observations .

i ca n't begin to tell you how tedious , how resolutely unamusing , how thoroughly unrewarding all of this is , and what a reckless squandering of four fine acting talents ...

buries an interesting storyline about morality and the choices we make underneath such a mountain of clichés and borrowed images that it might more accurately be titled mr. chips off the old block .

the movie just has too much on its plate to really stay afloat for its just under ninety minute running time .

so-so entertainment .

it is most remarkable not because of its epic scope , but because of the startling intimacy it achieves despite that breadth .

throwing it all away for the fleeting joys of love 's brief moment .

the sweetest thing is expressly for idiots who do n't care what kind of sewage they shovel into their mental gullets to simulate sustenance .

no amount of good intentions is able to overcome the triviality of the story .

the emperor 's club is one of those films that possesses all the good intentions in the world , but ...

what makes how i killed my father compelling , besides its terrific performances , is fontaine 's willingness to wander into the dark areas of parent-child relationships without flinching .

apart from its own considerable achievement , metropolis confirms tezuka 's status as both the primary visual influence on the animé tradition and its defining philosophical conscience .

it is that rare combination of bad writing , bad direction and bad acting -- the trifecta of badness .

only in its final surprising shots does rabbit-proof fence find the authority it 's looking for .

one of the more glaring signs of this movie 's servitude to its superstar is the way it skirts around any scenes that might have required genuine acting from ms. spears .

lacks the spirit of the previous two , and makes all those jokes about hos and even more unmentionable subjects seem like mere splashing around in the muck .

a movie of technical skill and rare depth of intellect and feeling .

no big hairy deal .

i loved this film .

if this is cinema , i pledge allegiance to cagney and lacey .

gives us a lot to chew on , but not all of it has been properly digested .

this ill-conceived and expensive project winds up looking like a bunch of talented thesps slumming it .

despite the holes in the story and the somewhat predictable plot , moments of the movie caused me to jump in my chair ...

in a strange way , egoyan has done too much .

it 's a powerful though flawed movie , guaranteed to put a lump in your throat while reaffirming washington as possibly the best actor working in movies today .

as a remake , it 's a pale imitation .

sean penn , you owe nicolas cage an apology .

a lively and engaging examination of how similar obsessions can dominate a family .

fifty years after the fact , the world 's political situation seems little different , and -lrb- director phillip -rrb- noyce brings out the allegory with remarkable skill .

the acting in pauline and paulette is good all round , but what really sets the film apart is debrauwer 's refusal to push the easy emotional buttons .

a weird and wonderful comedy .

smart and taut .

the film is a masterpiece of nuance and characterization , marred only by an inexplicable , utterly distracting blunder at the very end .

an extraordinary dramatic experience .

no film could possibly be more contemptuous of the single female population .

rob schneider , dana carvey and sarah michelle gellar in the philadelphia story ?

if i could have looked into my future and saw how bad this movie was , i would go back and choose to skip it .

a classic fairy tale that perfectly captures the wonders and worries of childhood in a way that few movies have ever approached .

every conceivable mistake a director could make in filming opera has been perpetrated here .

yet another movie which presumes that high school social groups are at war , let alone conscious of each other 's existence .

e.t. works because its flabbergasting principals , 14-year-old robert macnaughton , 6-year-old drew barrymore and 10-year-old henry thomas , convince us of the existence of the wise , wizened visitor from a faraway planet .
