    Kassovitz can't control the ridiculous script and messy tone. And though it's not exactly hard to watch Berry run around in a hospital robe (Cruz and Berry: That's one good-looking mental ward), it's not particularly profound.
    • Metascore: 49
    • Kim Morgan 42
    The clothes are worth it; nothing else is.

    Watching Rocks shows, we know he's sharper than the average actor. But watching him flail and play funny in movies that aren't as smart as him is simply depressing. Someone give this man a good role. And please, let him do a few more takes -- these scenes can't be his best efforts.

    Though it's debatable whether Sandler is squandered or just supremely annoying here, the film's flaws aren't entirely his fault.
    • Metascore: 64
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Bad comedy.
    • Metascore: 44
    • Kim Morgan 42
    America's favorite romantic comedian is miscast in Kate & Leopold -- a disappointment with the warm and charming Jackman around.
    • Metascore: 57
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Goes overboard in its presentation of supposed reality.
    • Metascore: 53
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Lacks the perfect timing, luster and true vitality of its predecessors.
    • Metascore: 42
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Never maintains the spark necessary to sustain a feature film.
    • Metascore: 75
    • Kim Morgan 42
    The picture is pinched and predictable. Even with the immensely talented Steve Zahn, an actor who's known to steal scenes and, sometimes, save pictures, the movie is a yawn.
    • Metascore: 39
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Its cool, glib observations, delivered by good-looking creative people who live like the cast of "Friends" gone cynical, becomes forced and often stupid. The film goes off the track enough to make for an interesting train wreck.
    • Metascore: 43
    • Kim Morgan 42
    It's Zahn who truly conveys what Marshall and Barrymore are going for -- laughing through your tears.
    • Metascore: 32
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Jinxed itself into being nothing but an inane popcorn flick pretending to be edgy.
    • Metascore: 48
    • Kim Morgan 42
    A flimsy film that's too clean and corn pone to be anything near rock 'n' roll.
    • Metascore: 38
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Not that Chan isn't lovable; he is. But he's making it harder to feel warm and fuzzy about him with films like The Medallion. It's OK to age, but Chan needs to broaden his horizons. He is a trained singer. Where's that musical he's always dreamed of making?
    • Metascore: 16
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Fails to be resonant and, more important, scary.
    • Metascore: 43
    • Kim Morgan 42
    The Young Unknowns flails about, sometimes realistically, but the cumulative effect is "so what?" These characters may be young and unknown, but they feel old and in the way.
    • Metascore: 33
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Lopez is fine, sometimes quite funny, but she's better playing the take-no-prisoners planner than a goofy, insecure dork.
    • Metascore: 47
    • Kim Morgan 42
    It's something we might mildly enjoy on an airplane (well, not anymore) or on a lazy Sunday TV day when nothing else is on, but in theaters, it's a clunker.
    • Metascore: 45
    • Kim Morgan 42
    A picture that could have bordered on classy screwball if written wittier, acted sexier and filmed shinier.
    • Metascore: 55
    • Kim Morgan 42
    It's nice that Demme reveres the Hollywood classic, the French cinema and the glamour of his actors. But nice is all The Truth About Charlie is -- a nice mess.
    • Metascore: 53
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Filled with too many issues -- along with young motherhood, street gangs, city life, sex, peer pressure, grief and, oh yes, dancing, which is nearly lost in so many poorly written subplots.
    • Metascore: 44
    • Kim Morgan 42
    There's nothing worse than a sub-par Woody Allen knockoff.
    • Metascore: 60
    • Kim Morgan 42
    All guts, no glory and, worse, bad story.
    • Metascore: 71
    • Kim Morgan 42
    A little movie, fine, but a little movie with little in the way of character composition, cinematic panache or intelligent writing.
    • Metascore: 42
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Suffers from poor comic timing and defective romantic pacing.
    • Metascore: 35
    • Kim Morgan 42
    We're talking mediocre-to-bad. Still, the film has at least two bits that are funnier than anything in many better films and a fair amount of mild amusement in between.
    • Metascore: 30
    • Kim Morgan 42
    In The Tuxedo, ridiculously, Chan's just a suit. A suit walking Jennifer Love Hewitt's breasts around. Chan deserves better.
    • Metascore: 54
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Somewhere along the way, Stephen Herek's Rock Star decided to become a dippy, cliche-ridden drama and, worse, an odd indictment of metal music. Joy.
    • Metascore: 33
    • Kim Morgan 42
    If the movie wasn't about an actor but instead about an insurance salesman or a plumber who looked like James Gandolfini, it might come off better. But then, who says a plumber would care either?
    • Metascore: 27
    • Kim Morgan 42
    It's classic movie manipulation gone amok.
    • Metascore: 53
    • Kim Morgan 42
    By a certain point The Heart of Me becomes pointlessly depressing and unlikable without offering insight.
    • Metascore: 50
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Starts out dark, thrilling and inventive, then, regrettably, becomes sappy, mainstream and mundane.
    • Metascore: 38
    • Kim Morgan 42
    The best thing about 2 Fast 2 Furious is Tyrese (terrific in Singleton's "Baby Boy"), whose charisma, looks and charm supply the picture with much-needed spark. It's too bad he's stuck in this spotty video game.
    • Metascore: 30
    • Kim Morgan 42
    The film wears out its welcome by the halfway mark, becoming a silly spectacle.
    • Metascore: 47
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Though there are some funny moments, little in "Red, White and Blonde" is enjoyable.
    • Metascore: 39
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Sometimes funny but mostly stupid film directed by Adam Shankman might have worked had it been made on TV by Norman Lear in the 1970s.
    • Metascore: 43
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Quite simply, the "Tomb Raider" series has been flat-out boring, even with the talented and fun Jolie -- who needs to take off those harnesses and get back to real movies. She deserves better.
    • Metascore: 40
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Feels more TV movie-of-the-week than Oscar contender.
    • Metascore: 42
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Maybe if you're younger than 10 you'll be scared or thrilled by this film. Otherwise, be prepared for one of the most unexciting pictures this summer.
    • Metascore: 53
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Plot, comedy and characterization? It's absolutely anemic.
    • Metascore: 49
    • Kim Morgan 42
    One of the funniest things in Scary Movie 3 is Pamela Anderson. She makes us laugh. And not just at her (though she's game to poke fun at her image) but with her.
    • Metascore: 39
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Limps shallowly along.
    • Metascore: 55
    • Kim Morgan 42
    Accuracy and realism are terrific, but if your film becomes boring, and your dialogue isn't smart, then you need to use more poetic license.
    • Metascore: 48
    • Kim Morgan 33
    One of the most wearisome "high adrenaline" movies to come along in a while.
    • Metascore: 54
    • Kim Morgan 33
    Groove seems to be less about what it is chronicling than what its attempting to decipher.
    • Metascore: 37
    • Kim Morgan 33
    A film with almost zero redeeming value.
    • Metascore: 36
    • Kim Morgan 33
    Has a few pleasing stylistic flourishes and a potentially Hitchcockian plot, but the writing and rhythm are so off that when the final "shocker" arrives, we have seen it coming or have abandoned caring.
    • Metascore: 30
    • Kim Morgan 33
    It all makes you realize the importance of the guy who should have played Malkovich's role -- Christopher Walken. He makes films like this bearable.
    • Metascore: 12
    • Kim Morgan 33
    A disappointing venture. If only it had been more clever, perhaps darker.
    • Metascore: 53
    • Kim Morgan 33
    There are movies that are made for the big screen, and movies that are made for the small screen; Passionada is the latter type.
    • Metascore: 35
    • Kim Morgan 33
    So often out of control that it becomes absurd and exasperating.
    • Metascore: 25
    • Kim Morgan 33
    Taking the film as a thriller, it's neither exciting nor scary, hampered by a middle that plays much too long.
    • Metascore: 32
    • Kim Morgan 33
    You can't help but think how much better this film would be had Woody Allen directed it...How much more acerbic fun would it be to see Judy Davis playing stenographer to a neurotic, writer's-blocked Woody?
    • Metascore: 25
    • Kim Morgan 33
    Working with a weak script and too lightweight for its freakier moments with Green, the picture never gels. Green's the star, but he really should be in a movie much weirder than this one, a film that can accommodate his humor.
    • Metascore: 18
    • Kim Morgan 33
    Has a curious train-wreck quality to it that keeps you watching and thinking. (Even if you are thinking things like, Why were these lines ever written? When you hear the "turkey" line, your jaw will drop.)
    • Metascore: 41
    • Kim Morgan 33
    The script is inane, and though Ferri has some funny moments, the acting is annoying or hopelessly bland.
    • Metascore: 38
    • Kim Morgan 33
    For those who've seen the original, no surprises will be unearthed other than an altered story (not for the better) and more gore.
    • Metascore: 49
    • Kim Morgan 25
    Just pass on K-PAX.
    • Metascore: 38
    • Kim Morgan 25
    An annoying, unclever, unlikable movie.
    • Metascore: 51
    • Kim Morgan 25
    This little serio-comedy contains absolutely nothing that warrants big-screen release. It's lit like TV, acted like TV and staged like TV.
    • Metascore: 25
    • Kim Morgan 25
    If ever a film was fit only for straight-to-video release, it's this one.
    • Metascore: 28
    • Kim Morgan 25
    So tedious that the experience results in nearly two hours of squirming and cringing.
    • Metascore: 22
    • Kim Morgan 25
    A grating experience from start to finish.
    • Metascore: 38
    • Kim Morgan 25
    Maybe if the story weren't so ludicrous we'd care. Or maybe if the film just went overboard with its ludicrousness, we'd be entertained, but Don't Say a Word is merely boring.
    • Metascore: 20
    • Kim Morgan 25
    Corky Romano is merely grating. Until he finds a better director than Rob Pritts, Kattan's best bet is to stick with "SNL" impresario Lorne Michaels.
    • Metascore: 32
    • Kim Morgan 25
    Garners only a few chuckles, becoming, even in its short running time, boring.
    • Metascore: 18
    • Kim Morgan 25
    A lazy, trite comedy that's made by people who don't care either.
    • Metascore: 35
    • Kim Morgan 25
    Scooby-Doo is bad. Let's just get that right out of the way. Filled with unclever quips, tired humor, a lazy silliness and bland execution, the picture is a tedious puff of nothing.
    • Metascore: 28
    • Kim Morgan 25
    Compare it with the book, and it stinks. Look at the film on its own, and it still stinks.
    • Metascore: 21
    • Kim Morgan 25
    Simply something you don't want to touch.
    • Metascore: 35
    • Kim Morgan 16
    An atrocity exhibition from start to finish.
    • Metascore: 45
    • Kim Morgan 16
    Ponderous, pretentious and boring, Levity becomes ironic on top of itself. You won't pity these people. You'll start laughing at them. Like a clown.
    • Metascore: 27
    • Kim Morgan 16
    Chris Koch exhibits little flair for comedic direction and, though this isn't saying much, you'd be better served watching his previous film, "Snow Day." Ouch.
    • Metascore: 32
    • Kim Morgan 16
    Surprisingly bland even within its dubious genre of "chick flick."
    • Metascore: 48
    • Kim Morgan 16
    Intelligent teens will hate this film, and adults will just be embarrassed.
    • Metascore: 29
    • Kim Morgan 16
    Stinky, boring, aggressively unfunny picture.

    May be the most boring film about forbidden love ever made. Unspectacularly shot on video, terribly scripted, with zombie-like acting that borders on the absurd.
