Review of The Trumpet of the Swan (2001)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Mr. Showbiz (475) on 02 Dec 2003

A clumsy, witless cartoon version of E.B. White's rather uncelebrated children's story…

Review of What Alice Found (2003)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 02 Dec 2003

Ivey hits the turf pitching and catching dialogue like a pro, but nothing could have saved What Alice Found from a fundamental cinematic illiteracy…

Review of The Good Thief (2003)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 25 Nov 2003

His movie (Jordan's) winnows the original's existentialist fable into a busy caper thriller, copping plot devices from Soderbergh's Ocean's…

Review of Agnes Browne (1999)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 18 Nov 2003

Soft-boiled blarney so sluttish with Hollywood clichés it could've been made in Burbank…

Review of Love Actually (2003)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 04 Nov 2003

When he isn't overreaching for absurdity, Curtis can write bouncy patter, but each character gets about 60 seconds before the movie jumps deck…

Review of Intolerable Cruelty (2003)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 07 Oct 2003

Zeta-Jones is merely ravishing, but Clooney owns the film…

Review of Gigli (2003)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 27 Sep 2003

Gigli berates, insults, dismisses, throttles, and bellows at Bartha's meticulously aped retard, and then turns sensitive and warm—it's…

Review of Rat Race (2001)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 20 Sep 2003

Zucker's frenzied trifle is painless, with a few decent running gags -- and an ocean of bad ones…

Review of South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut (1999)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Mr. Showbiz (475) on 20 Sep 2003

In terms of raw wit and fearless satire, the South Park kids put Mike Myers and Adam Sandler to shame…

Review of In This World (2003)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 15 Sep 2003

Winterbottom was set on bare-bones realism, and so the scalding lyricism of ferocious terrain and sociopolitical absurdity seen in, say, Kandahar…

Review of The Battle of Shaker Heights (2003)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 25 Aug 2003

The characters talk like smart, unpredictable people, and Kelly Ernswiler is one of a kind…

Review of Lara Croft: Tomb Raider - The Cradle of Life (2003)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 28 Jul 2003

It wouldn't be fair to gripe about the hundreds of plot holes; the whole thing is hole…

Review of U-571 (2000)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 30 Jun 2003

It's a simple pleasure watching an American movie that respects genre, knows its limitations, and genuflects at the memory of Don Siegel in…

Review of 28 Days Later (2002)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 28 Jun 2003

On one hand a seat-o'-pants digital-video quickie designed for blunt trauma, and on the other a veritable index of classic genre-stuff, Boyle's…

Review of Rugrats Go Wild (2003)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 16 Jun 2003

As matinee probations go, the movie's tainted by too many bad songs and too much of Bruce Willis…

Review of The Italian Job (2003)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 02 Jun 2003

Zesty in a workmanlike sort of way, providing supporting henchmen Jason Statham and Mos Def with pleasingly unsensational characters given…

Review of Capturing the Friedmans (2003)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 26 May 2003

I've seen only a few films in my lifetime that so potently express the golden hopes of childhood and parenthood, as well as the inevitable…

Review of Berlin Babylon (2001)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 23 May 2003

To many eyes, Berlin was the saddest city in 20th-century Europe, divided and lost, and as city symphonies go, Siegert's is pragmatic and optimistic…

Review of Night and the City (1950)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 25 Mar 2003

A moody piece of Wellesian chiaroscuro (shot by Max Greene, né Mutz Greenbaum) and an occasionally discomfiting underworld plunge…

Review of Vanilla Sky (2001)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 10 Mar 2003
