Review of Titan A.E. (2000)

By Shay Casey (101) for rec.arts.movies.reviews (2,454) on 01 Jan 2000

Almost every plot point is treated with such grim portentousness that any and all vitality is sucked right out of the production…

Review of The Patriot (2000)

By Shay Casey (101) for Conceited Critic (8) on 01 Jan 2000

If I'd known there was going to be this much gagging sentimentality, I'd have brought a vomit bag…

Review of Rules of engagement (2014)

By Shay Casey (101) for rec.arts.movies.reviews (2,454) on 01 Jan 2000

Rules of Engagement isn't a bad film, but it's one that is often too dramatically and intellectually inert to warrant a full recommendation…

Review of Snatch (2000)

By Shay Casey (101) for Daily-Reviews (45) on 01 Jan 2000

I have to admit that I like Guy Ritchie's style, I respond well to it, and I responded marginally well to Snatch…

Review of Man on the Moon (1999)

By Shay Casey (101) for rec.arts.movies.reviews (2,454) on 01 Jan 2000

The irony here is that everyone who is disappointed with this film, everyone who didn't get what they expected, are those that would be clowned…

Review of The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999)

By Shay Casey (101) for rec.arts.movies.reviews (2,454) on 01 Jan 2000

Minghella is obviously trying to pay homage to Hitchcock here, and it's a shame that he misses only one thing that Hitch knew: economy…

Review of Dinosaur (2000)

By Shay Casey (101) for rec.arts.movies.reviews (2,454) on 01 Jan 2000

For all its impressive wizardry, Disney's latest effort mostly comes off as a visually spectacular lesson in how not to tell a story…

Review of X-Men (2000)

By Shay Casey (101) for Conceited Critic (8) on 01 Jan 2000

It doesn't disappoint the fanboys by dumbing things down for the mass audience, but it doesn't keep its distance either…

Review of Me, Myself & Irene (2000)

By Shay Casey (101) for rec.arts.movies.reviews (2,454) on 01 Jan 2000

It's a great showcase of flexibility and split-second role-shifting, but none of it is terribly funny…

Review of Gladiator (2000)

By Shay Casey (101) for rec.arts.movies.reviews (2,454) on 01 Jan 2000

Gladiator isn't groundbreaking, but it's good old-fashioned entertainment…

Review of What Lies Beneath (2000)

By Shay Casey (101) for Conceited Critic (8) on 01 Jan 2000

You'll never convince me that of all the possible ways to wrap up this meandering, twisty story, the best they could come up with was that…

Review of The Hurricane (1999)

By Shay Casey (101) for rec.arts.movies.reviews (2,454) on 01 Jan 2000

Only one actor could have made a schmaltzy, predictable picture like this work as well as it does, and it's a good thing The Hurricane has that actor…

Review of Chicken Run (2000)

By Shay Casey (101) for rec.arts.movies.reviews (2,454) on 01 Jan 2000

The film manages to cross all barriers; it should be accessible to both children and adults, Brits and Yanks, rats and chickens…

Review of Battlefield Earth (2000)

By Shay Casey (101) for rec.arts.movies.reviews (2,454) on 01 Jan 2000

Is it as bad as advertised? Oh yes, very much so…

Review of The 13th Warrior (1999)

By Shay Casey (101) for Conceited Critic (8) on 01 Jan 2000

It's not a good sign when what the filmmakers seemingly intended to be a straightforward action film leaves the viewers saying, 'Huh…

Review of The Cider House Rules (1999)

By Shay Casey (101) for rec.arts.movies.reviews (2,454) on 01 Jan 2000

It's mostly well-made and good-looking, and it's also mostly empty…

Review of La Orca (1976)

By Shay Casey (101) for Daily-Reviews (45) on 01 Jan 2000

I have to admit that I like Guy Ritchie's style, I respond well to it, and I responded marginally well to Snatch…

Review of Scary Movie (2000)

By Shay Casey (101) for Conceited Critic (8) on 01 Jan 2000

What's not funny is having these jokes pounded into our skulls for a full 90 minutes without anything creative ever done with them…

Review of The Cell (2000)

By Shay Casey (101) for Conceited Critic (8) on 01 Jan 2000
