a standard haunted house tale transplanted to the high seas .

who knows what exactly godard is on about in this film , but his words and images do n't have to add up to mesmerize you .

despite its many infuriating flaws -- not the least of which is amy 's self-absorbed personality -- amy 's o 's honesty will win you over .

boisterous and daft documentary .
2

britney has been delivered to the big screen safe and sound , the way we like our 20-year-old superstar girls to travel on the fame freeway .
3
positive
the low-budget full frontal was one of the year 's murkiest , intentionally obscure and self-indulgent pictures , and solaris is its big-budget brother .
1
negative
it does n't quite deserve the gong , but there are more fascinating acts than `` confessions of a dangerous mind . ''
2
neutral
run , do n't walk , to see this barbed and bracing comedy on the big screen .
4
very positive
it 's rather like a lifetime special -- pleasant , sweet and forgettable .
3
positive
lends itself to the narcotizing bland -lrb- sinister , though not nearly so sinister as the biennial disney girl movie -rrb- machinations of the biennial disney boy movie .
2
neutral
just because it really happened to you , honey , does n't mean that it 's interesting to anyone else .
1
negative
if shayamalan wanted to tell a story about a man who loses his faith , why did n't he just do it , instead of using bad sci-fi as window dressing ?
0
very negative
however , it lacks grandeur and that epic quality often associated with stevenson 's tale as well as with earlier disney efforts .
1
negative
the hours is what movies are supposed to be ...
4
very positive
the powers team has fashioned a comedy with more laughs than many , no question .
4
very positive
too sincere to exploit its subjects and too honest to manipulate its audience .
2
neutral
the piano teacher is the sort of movie that discourages american audiences from ever wanting to see another foreign film .
0
very negative
has a shambling charm ... a cheerfully inconsequential diversion .
3
positive
a reasonably efficient mechanism , but it offers few surprises and finds its stars slumming in territory they should have avoided .
2
neutral
splashes its drama all over the screen , subjecting its audience and characters to action that feels not only manufactured , but also so false you can see the filmmakers ' puppet strings .
0
very negative
is it a total success ?
2
neutral
whether -lrb- binoche and magimel -rrb- are being charming or angst-ridden , they easily fill their scenes and , fine judges both , never overcook the hysteria .
2
neutral
everyone connected to this movie seems to be part of an insider clique , which tends to breed formulaic films rather than fresh ones .
1
negative
verbinski substitutes atmosphere for action , tedium for thrills .
1
negative
sure , it 's more of the same , but as the film proves , that 's not always a bad thing .
2
neutral
i regret to report that these ops are just not extreme enough .
1
negative
a real movie , about real people , that gives us a rare glimpse into a culture most of us do n't know .
3
positive
those outside show business will enjoy a close look at people they do n't really want to know .
3
positive
davis has filled out his cast with appealing fresh faces .
4
very positive
the film benefits greatly from a less manic tone than its predecessor , as cho appears to have settled comfortably into her skin .
4
very positive
a pleasurably jacked-up piece of action moviemaking .
3
positive
home alone goes hollywood , a funny premise until the kids start pulling off stunts not even steven spielberg would know how to do .
1
negative
a wildly funny prison caper .
4
very positive
this idea has lost its originality ... and neither star appears very excited at rehashing what was basically a one-joke picture .

very negative
this series should have died long ago , but they keep bringing it back another day as punishment for paying money to see the last james bond movie .

i wonder what the reaction of israelis will be to this supposedly evenhanded presentation .
2
neutral
even the unwatchable soapdish is more original .
0
very negative
plays less like a coming-of-age romance than an infomercial .
1
negative
it is ridiculous , of course ... but it is also refreshing , disarming , and just outright enjoyable despite its ridiculousness .
3
positive
with generic sets and b-grade special effects , jason is about as convincing on the sci-fi front as tv 's defunct cleopatra 2525 .
1
negative
renner 's performance as dahmer is unforgettable , deeply absorbing .
4
very positive
never mind whether you buy the stuff about barris being a cia hit man .
1
negative
you would n't call the good girl a date movie -lrb- an anti-date movie is more like it -rrb- , but when it 's good , it 's good and horrid .
2
neutral
feels like the grittiest movie that was ever made for the lifetime cable television network .
2
neutral
although trying to balance self-referential humor and a normal ol' slasher plot seemed like a decent endeavor , the result does n't fully satisfy either the die-hard jason fans or those who can take a good joke .
1
negative
i love the way that it took chances and really asks you to take these great leaps of faith and pays off .
4
very positive
if this holiday movie is supposed to be a gift , somebody unwrapped it early , took out all the good stuff , and left behind the crap -lrb- literally -rrb- .
0
very negative
as a singular character study , it 's perfect .
4
very positive
somewhat blurred , but kinnear 's performance is razor sharp .
4
very positive
it 's the kind of movie you ca n't quite recommend because it is all windup and not much of a pitch , yet you ca n't bring yourself to dislike it .
1
negative
godawful boring slug of a movie .
0
very negative
purely propaganda , a work of unabashed hero worship , it is nonetheless -- and likely inadvertently -- a timely and invaluable implicit reminder of the role that u.s. foreign policy has played in the rise of castro .
2
neutral
that rara avis : the intelligent romantic comedy with actual ideas on its mind .
4
very positive
it took 19 predecessors to get this ?

very negative
when not obscured by the booming bass-heavy soundtrack , the conversation presents the kind of linguistic fumbling not heard since macy gray 's game of chinese whispers with mr bean .
2
neutral
the film is surprisingly well-directed by brett ratner , who keeps things moving well -- at least until the problematic third act .
3
positive
whether kiss is a future cult classic or destined to be completely forgotten is open to question , but the risk-takers in the crowd should check it out and form their own opinion .
2
neutral
time changer may not be the most memorable cinema session but its profound self-evaluation message about our fragile existence and the absence of spiritual guidance should at least invade an abundance of mindsets
3
positive
a sports movie with action that 's exciting on the field and a story you care about off it .
4
very positive
it 's all pretty cynical and condescending , too .
1
negative
punish the vehicle to adore the star .

if this is the danish idea of a good time , prospective tourists might want to consider a different destination -- some jolly country embroiled in a bloody civil war , perhaps .

... mesmerizing , an eye-opening tour of modern beijing culture in a journey of rebellion , retreat into oblivion and return .
4
very positive
fortunately for all involved , this movie is likely to disappear as quickly as an ice cube thrown into a pot of boiling water .
0
very negative
it delivers some chills and sustained unease , but flounders in its quest for deeper meaning .
1
negative
but fans should have fun meeting a brand-new pokemon called celebi .
3
positive
... lacks the punch and verve needed to make this genre soar .
2
neutral
it 's just incredibly dull .

very negative
merchant effectively translates naipaul 's lively mix of characters from the page to screen .
3
positive
the humor is hinged on the belief that knees in the crotch , elbows in the face and spit in the eye are inherently funny .
1
negative
characters wander into predictably treacherous situations even though they should know better .
1
negative
every bit as bogus as most disney live action family movies are -- no real plot , no real conflict , no real point .
0
very negative
for all its failed connections , divine secrets of the ya-ya sisterhood is nurturing , in a gauzy , dithering way .
3
positive
a well-made thriller with a certain level of intelligence and non-reactionary morality .
4
very positive
it will come as no surprise that the movie is n't scary .
1
negative
a movie that tries to fuse the two ` woods ' but winds up a bolly-holly masala mess .
1
negative
what 's most striking about this largely celebratory film ... is the sense of isolation that permeates these bastions of individuality in an ikea world .
3
positive
it does n't help that the director and cinematographer stephen kazmierski shoot on grungy video , giving the whole thing a dirty , tasteless feel .
0
very negative
some , like ballistic , arrive stillborn ... looking like the beaten , well-worn video box cover of seven years into the future .

very negative
the movie is full of fine performances , led by josef bierbichler as brecht and monica bleibtreu as helene weigel , his wife .
4
very positive
the actors are forced to grapple with hazy motivations that never come into focus .
1
negative
somewhere short of tremors on the modern b-scene : neither as funny nor as clever , though an agreeably unpretentious way to spend ninety minutes .
1
negative
though a bit of a patchwork in script and production , a glossy , rich green , environment almost makes the picture work .
3
positive
if it seems like a minor miracle that its septuagenarian star is young enough to be the nonagenarian filmmaker 's son , more incredible still are the clear-eyed boldness and quiet irony with which actor and director take on life 's urgent questions .
4
very positive
formula 51 is so trite that even yu 's high-energy action stylings ca n't break through the stupor .
0
very negative
earnest falls short of its ideal predecessor largely due to parker 's ill-advised meddling with the timeless source material .
1
negative
doug liman , the director of bourne , directs the traffic well , gets a nice wintry look from his locations , absorbs us with the movie 's spycraft and uses damon 's ability to be focused and sincere .
4
very positive
the animated subplot keenly depicts the inner struggles of our adolescent heroes - insecure , uncontrolled , and intense .
3
positive
it 's never a good sign when a film 's star spends the entirety of the film in a coma .
0
very negative
lame , haphazard teen comedy .
0
very negative
but in its child-centered , claustrophobic context , it can be just as frightening and disturbing -- even punishing .
0
very negative
easier to respect than enthuse over , andersson 's rigorous personal vision is not only distanced but distancing .
2
neutral
so few movies explore religion that it 's disappointing to see one reduce it to an idea that fits in a sampler .
1
negative
the film would work much better as a video installation in a museum , where viewers would be free to leave .

oedekerk wrote patch adams , for which he should not be forgiven .

an absorbing , slice-of-depression life that touches nerves and rings true .
