it 's supposed to be post-feminist breezy but ends up as tedious as the chatter of parrots raised on oprah .

at its best ... festival in cannes bubbles with the excitement of the festival in cannes .

lacking substance and soul , crossroads comes up shorter than britney 's cutoffs .
1
negative
simple , poignant and leavened with humor , it 's a film that affirms the nourishing aspects of love and companionship .
3
positive
at times , the movie looks genuinely pretty .
4
very positive
a deliberative account of a lifestyle characterized by its surface-obsession -- one that typifies the delirium of post , pre , and extant stardom .

positive
this is surely one of the most frantic , virulent and foul-natured christmas season pics ever delivered by a hollywood studio .

it 's a glorified sitcom , and a long , unfunny one at that .

anyone who 's ever suffered under a martinet music instructor has no doubt fantasized about what an unhappy , repressed and twisted personal life their tormentor deserved .

returning director rob minkoff ... and screenwriter bruce joel rubin ... have done a fine job of updating white 's dry wit to a new age .

with zoe clarke-williams 's lackluster thriller `` new best friend '' , who needs enemies ?

an involving , inspirational drama that sometimes falls prey to its sob-story trappings .

just send it to cranky .

negative
it 's secondary to american psycho but still has claws enough to get inside you and stay there for a couple of hours .
3
positive
bravo reveals the true intent of her film by carefully selecting interview subjects who will construct a portrait of castro so predominantly charitable it can only be seen as propaganda .
2
neutral
one of the funnier movies in town .

a terrific insider look at the star-making machinery of tinseltown .
3
positive
the movie is amateurish , but it 's a minor treat .
3
positive
still , not every low-budget movie must be quirky or bleak , and a happy ending is no cinematic sin .

it is n't scary .

a preposterous , prurient whodunit .

chan 's stunts are limited and so embellished by editing that there 's really not much of a sense of action or even action-comedy .
1
negative
absolutely -lrb- and unintentionally -rrb- terrifying .
2
neutral
an average kid-empowerment fantasy with slightly above-average brains .
3
positive
instead of making his own style , director marcus adams just copies from various sources -- good sources , bad mixture

the plot of the comeback curlers is n't very interesting actually , but what i like about men with brooms and what is kind of special is how the film knows what 's unique and quirky about canadians .

tambor and clayburgh make an appealing couple -- he 's understated and sardonic , she 's appealingly manic and energetic .

both overstuffed and undernourished ... the film ca n't be called a solid success , although there 's plenty of evidence here to indicate clooney might have better luck next time .
2
neutral
if this movie leaves you cool , it also leaves you intriguingly contemplative .
2
neutral
all movie long , city by the sea swings from one approach to the other , but in the end , it stays in formula -- which is a waste of de niro , mcdormand and the other good actors in the cast .
1
negative
painful , horrifying and oppressively tragic , this film should not be missed .
4
very positive
take care is nicely performed by a quintet of actresses , but nonetheless it drags during its 112-minute length .
1
negative
the script covers huge , heavy topics in a bland , surfacey way that does n't offer any insight into why , for instance , good things happen to bad people .
1
negative
a seriously bad film with seriously warped logic by writer-director kurt wimmer at the screenplay level .
1
negative
it 's not too racy and it 's not too offensive .
2
neutral
a deliciously nonsensical comedy about a city coming apart at its seams .
