Review of Only the Lonely (1991)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 31 Jan 2004

The performers keep you watching (Candy, I’m convinced, could be a fine dramatic actor), yet the movie itself is a thin procession of clichés…

Review of Being Human (1994)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 30 Jan 2004

Being Human doesn't seem to be about anything: Its five astonishingly limp parables might have been spun by a depressed Aesop who forgot to…

Review of Benny & Joon (1993)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 30 Jan 2004

Benny & Joon turns out to be a whimsical (and not very well paced) heart tugger in which two nice couples spend 98 ever-so-slightly flaky minutes…

Review of Species (1995)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 29 Jan 2004

It doesn’t help that the special effects are second-rate; the squishy primal horror of Alien has been replaced by a kind of mechanized yuckiness…

Review of The Perfect Score (2004)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 29 Jan 2004

The movie, which strains to be hip in a faux-1985 beat-the-system way, takes such a light view of cheating that it has the ironic effect of…

Review of Cobb (1994)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 25 Jan 2004

In Cobb, Jones seems trapped inside his own febrile personality…

Review of Message in a Bottle (1999)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 18 Jan 2004

On paper, the movie sounds unbearably schlocky, but Costner plays Garret the reluctant backcountry prince as mythic but also foxy and life size…

Review of The Patriot (2000)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 17 Jan 2004

It's a death-wish revenge thriller posing as a lavishly pastoral historical epic…

Review of Boiling Point (1993)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 14 Jan 2004

Director Kathryn Bigelow is one of the new-style action wizards who’ve never quite mastered the nuts and bolts of telling a story…

Review of Win a Date with Tad Hamilton! (2004)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 14 Jan 2004

May find an audience, but I found it to be a leftover John Hughes triangle…

Review of Nine Months (1995)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 05 Jan 2004

If there were a scale for measuring how much of a movie’s substance was pure plastic, Nine Months, the new maternity comedy directed by Chris…

Review of Woman on Top (2000)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 04 Jan 2004

Has all the mood enhancing flavor of a tropical cocktail made with watered down rum and fake fruit juice…

Review of House of Sand and Fog (2003)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 10 Dec 2003

Just because a scenario turns dark doesn't mean that it's convincing. House of Sand and Fog is artful until it lunges for Art…

Review of The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 04 Dec 2003

The Hunchback of Notre Dame is a beautiful and transporting experience — the best, I think, of Disney’s serious animated features in the…

Review of The Haunted Mansion (2003)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 26 Nov 2003

Tame and witless enough to make me long for the ancient, dusty fright kitsch of ''The Munsters…

Review of In America (2003)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 26 Nov 2003

Has moments of biting tenderness, yet the movie made me wish that Sheridan had let in more of America…

Review of My Flesh and Blood (2003)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 26 Nov 2003

You'd have to be a stone not to be affected by My Flesh and Blood, but the director, Jonathan Karsh, merges compassion with voyeurism until…

Review of Confessions of a Dangerous Mind (2002)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 21 Nov 2003

The fascination of Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, the sharp, funny, unreasonably compelling adaptation of Barris' autobiography, is the way…

Review of Children of Heaven (1997)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 12 Nov 2003

The plot feels less like a realistic dilemma than it does a willed exercise in neorealist catharsis — a way of inviting Western audiences…

Review of Home for the Holidays (1995)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 11 Nov 2003

Foster, working from a patchy, meandering script by W.D. Richter, produces scene after scene of rudderless banter…
