Review of Who's That Knocking at My Door (1968)

By Stephen H (1,156) on 21 Mar 2012

Review of The Devil Wears Prada (2006)

By Stephen H (1,156) on 21 Mar 2012

I think Meryl Streep's performance was kinda overrated, and the film isn't about anything very new, but it's still watchable…

Review of Some Like It Hot (1939)

Review of Say Anything... (1989)

By Stephen H (1,156) on 21 Mar 2012

The father subplot may be a bit over-the-top, but I think the romance betwen Cusack and Skye is the heart of the film and makes it worthwhile…

Kevin Bacon is pretty underrated as an actor; this performance proves it. Can someone overcome their mistakes and move forward? Maybe…

Review of Atonement (2007)

By Stephen H (1,156) on 21 Mar 2012

The film is beautiful, and it does a rather fine job of capturing the longing the two leads have for each other, both leading up to their one…

Review of Lucas (2012)

By Stephen H (1,156) on 21 Mar 2012

Try it on, Lucas! This is a charming teen movie, that doesn't rely on obvious sex gags and cliches; well, there are a few cliches, but that's okay…

Review of Role Models (2008)

By Stephen H (1,156) on 21 Mar 2012

Pretty funny, but a bit familiar and forgettable. I enjoyed it as I watched it, and then struggled to remember anything noteworthy…

Review of The Life of David Gale (2003)

By Stephen H (1,156) on 21 Mar 2012

This film is a little too heavy handed to be taken seriously, but the caliber of the actors and the clever turns make it better than I expected…

Review of Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (2008)

By Stephen H (1,156) on 21 Mar 2012

The leads are endearing, and there's some funny moments, but in many ways, the story is too ordinary…

Review of Across the Universe (2007)

Review of We Own the Night (2007)

By Stephen H (1,156) on 21 Mar 2012
