Review of The White Countess (2005)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 07 Jan 2006

Review of Grandma's Boy (2006)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 07 Jan 2006

A brain-dead piece of slacker swill, worse than the worst Sandler, Schneider or Spade movie ever made…

Review of Hostel (2006)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 07 Jan 2006

Skillfully made...but basically this is a movie that traffics in sadism as much as its villains do, and your reaction to it will pretty much…

Review of Mrs. Henderson Presents (2005)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 30 Dec 2005

Review of The New World (2005)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 28 Dec 2005

Review of Match Point (2005)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 28 Dec 2005

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 23 Dec 2005

Review of Cheaper by the Dozen 2 (2005)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 20 Dec 2005

The big Baker clan goes for a vacation at a Wisconsin lake, and we get drowned in a sea of slapstick and schmaltz...but it's actually an improvement…

Review of Memoirs of a Geisha (2005)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 16 Dec 2005

Comes across as a weird combination of Charles Dickens and Harlequin Romance, given a falsely exotic air by an overlay of kimonos and cherry blossoms…

Review of The Family Stone (2005)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 15 Dec 2005

Review of Brokeback Mountain (2005)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 15 Dec 2005

Review of King Kong (1976)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 13 Dec 2005

Review of The Last September (2000)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 06 Dec 2005

Expends so much effort looking good and creating a dreamy atmosphere that its makers seem not to care about maintaining narrative coherence…

Review of Scary Movie (1991)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 06 Dec 2005

Does its spoofing with a blunt instrument instead of a scalpel, and it's engineered to appeal to the lowest instincts of its targeted adolescent…
