Review of High School Musical 3: Senior Year (2008)

By Jayh (423) on 15 Feb 2009

Disney has always been out of touch with teen youth, and they seem to be drifting further away, with HSM 3 being a good example of that…

Review of Blindness (2008)

By Jayh. (423) on 08 Feb 2009

It works for the most part but not completely. Visually it is very good, and the direction is impressive. The acting is quite good as well…

Review of Miracle at St. Anna (2008)

By Jayh. (423) on 06 Feb 2009

Ambitious but overlong and unfocused. It certainly is a well crafted film, but I was just never drawn deeply into the movie…

Review of Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls (1995)

By Jayh. (423) on 05 Feb 2009

Very hit and miss, with more misses than hits. The very animated Jim Carrey can be very funny but too often his humor is just stupid…

Review of Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994)

By Jayh (423) on 05 Feb 2009

Way too inane, Jim Carrey's comic style is a matter of taste. There are some funny bits but too much of it is just stupid…

Review of Soul Men (2008)

By Jayh. (423) on 03 Feb 2009

Review of The Secret Life of Bees (2008)

By Jayh. (423) on 31 Jan 2009

Dakota Fanning just doesn't have the acting range to pull off the film. Queen Latifah is terrific though…

Review of Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008)

By Jayh. (423) on 29 Jan 2009

Review of Bottle Shock (2008)

By Jayh. (423) on 29 Jan 2009

Good cast, well acted, especially Alan Rickman. Finely written, but it does have a few slow moving patches…

Review of Pride and Glory (2008)

By Jayh. (423) on 26 Jan 2009

Review of Fireproof (2008)

By Jayh (423) on 25 Jan 2009

Predictable hogwash. It started out well enough but it disintegrated into a preachy and unconvincing melodrama…

Review of Lakeview Terrace (2008)

By Jayh. (423) on 25 Jan 2009

Flawed but it is suspenseful. Well produced, fine performances. It's a bit predictable but I was never bored at least. Good score…
