There's less here than meets the eye, not to mention the ear, nose, tongue and fingertip. -

Little more than an electronic press kit for the band, produced for the benefit of its fans. -

As ugly, excessive and vulgar as "The Usual Suspects" was stylish, subtle and suave. -

It's as if the book itself has been locked up and institutionalized, forced to conform to a system that all but obliterates its own unique personality. -

A mean-hearted, ham-handed and gratuitous effort to exploit it's teenage audience's conviction that, underneath it all, their teachers really. do hate them. -

Lowbrow humor is one thing...but Love Stinks sinks the bar beyond comprehension. -

Just another tepid entry into this year's Death-as-Turn-On Sweepstakes. -

Catherine Breillat's pretentious, meandering, self-indulgent portrait of a libidinously deprived young woman is nothing more than pornography tricked out as feminist parable. -
