Review of Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 20 Jun 2008

Scalding and glib, derisive yet impassioned, Fahrenheit 9/11 is an intensely resonant piece of Bush-bashing, because it lets the president…

Review of Groundhog Day (1993)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 16 Jun 2008

Review of Snakes on a Plane (2006)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 07 Jun 2008

Review of The Ring (2002)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 06 Jun 2008

The best thing about the movie, which is a very elegantly crafted piece of gothic snuff hokum, is the way it teases and intrigues us with the…

Review of Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 25 May 2008

Review of Forrest Gump (1994)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 07 May 2008

It is also glib, shallow, and monotonous, a movie that spends so much time sanctifying its hero that, despite his innocence, he ends up seeming…

Review of XXY (2007)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 06 May 2008

Review of Iron Man (1931)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 29 Apr 2008

Review of Driven (2001)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 27 Apr 2008

Mostly preposterous, and it has no dramatic center, but the racing scenes hold you in their death-trip grip…

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 23 Apr 2008

Review of Standard Operating Procedure (2008)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 23 Apr 2008
