With its ho-hum hero and lackluster love story, The Order would likely be one big implausible bore if it wasn't for production designer Miljen Kreka Kljakovic. -

There's no question that Civil Brand has an ambitious premise, but it feels boxed in by the standard prison-movie formula. -

Zombie's film plays more like an experimental pastiche than an outright homage to those classic road-trip-gone-wrong movies. -

Despite its preposterous leaps of logic, it somehow still emerges a reasonably entertaining summer blockbuster. -

Clunky and riddled with clichés from start to finish, which is a shame because the cast is able and is led by Oscar-nominated director Mike Figgis. -

When confronted with real problems--and there's enough melodrama here to top a movie-of-the-week marathon on Lifetime--these otherwise empowered characters seem helpless to defend themselves. -

The filmmakers may have wanted to deconstruct any sense of a formal, cohesive narrative; instead, they have merely demolished it. -

Both Harris and Gooding, Jr. are fine actors trapped in a mawkish, pandering production that wastes the latter and is a waste of time for the former. -

Each segment introduces new characters and a radically different scenario, which suggests that Hancock's structure may actually be an insecure attempt to deliver a horror movie. -

Earle fans might see this film as a satisfying portrayal of a man they know and love, but those unfamiliar with the man and his music will likely leave the theater without much more interest in him than when the movie began. -

It is the overwhelmingly acrid sense of humor that leaves a bad taste in one's mouth at the end of the film. -

At best, this movie functions as a brief companion piece to Boy George's new Broadway show, “Taboo.” -

The whole film, in fact, feels slapped together and unfocused. Though the movie’s too dopey for anyone older than ten, there are scenes where characters drink and go skinny-dipping. -

The premise of the film is serviceable, but the execution is flawed and entirely underwhelming. -

Laughably clichéd, abominably written, astonishingly dreadful attempt at a psycho-sexual thriller. -

Absence of motive makes the movie provocative; the explanation renders it irrelevant and defuses any interesting debate the film might have inspired. -

The studio wimped out, and the result is a lesser production on every level: talent, script, content, and purpose. -

With its cheap scares, its defiant lack of special effects, and the most blatant usage of a red coat as a stand-out prop since Schindler’s List, Godsend is as much an experiment-gone-wrong as its Frankensteinesque plot. -

Close is the best and worst thing about the film, delivering a performance that upstages even Christopher Walken (!), taking her over-the-top Cruella de Vil turn to its saccharine-sweet opposite. -
