Review of The Limits of Control (2009)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 03 May 2009

It may seem perversely appropriate that a picture that's mostly about waiting should make you wait for something to happen, but what may be…

Review of Ghosts of Girlfriends Past (2009)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 28 Apr 2009

This crude reworking of Dickens was probably a bad idea to begin with, but it's so haplessly done that it didn't have a ghost of a chance…

Review of Lymelife (2008)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 28 Apr 2009

Review of The Soloist (2009)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 22 Apr 2009

Mawkish, manipulative, bombastic tearjerker [that] seems more about making a statement than translating the story into affecting drama…

Review of 17 Again (2009)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 16 Apr 2009

Highly derivative but still moderately enjoyable comedy...mostly because of Efron, who's easily the best reason to see the picture…

Review of Every Little Step (2008)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 16 Apr 2009

As a piece of cinema, Every Little Step is hardly any great shakes, but as a historical document it's fascinating and compelling…

Review of Spinning Into Butter (2009)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 16 Apr 2009

Painfully earnest and unrelievedly stilted and cliched, the movie is less a drama than a well-meaning but rather ridiculous diatribe…

Review of American Violet (2008)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 15 Apr 2009

Offers a message we've heard before, but it's one that bears repeating, and it's reasonably well delivered…

Review of Dragonball Evolution (2009)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 09 Apr 2009

Eleven-year old boys may very well enjoy Dragonball: Evolution, but anyone outside that target demographic might well be advised to skip it…

Review of Hannah Montana: The Movie (2009)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 08 Apr 2009

No better than cable-quality, and devoted fans really deserve something beyond assembly-line stuff when their TV idols are brought to the big screen…

Review of Observe and Report (2009)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 07 Apr 2009

It's Paul Blart with a nasty streak, a perverse kind of farce that most people will be more likely to recoil from than to laugh at…

Review of Good (2008)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 07 Apr 2009

This adaptation is drab and lifeless enough to make one suspect it was never much of a play in the first place…

Review of Alien Trespass (2009)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 05 Apr 2009

It doesn't want to be camp, but it inevitably becomes so, because the very effort to replicate its models is so knowing that it comes across…

Review of Paris 36 (2008)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 03 Apr 2009

Like a souffle overstuffed with ingredients. But it looks great on the plate, and enough of it is succulent to make up for the overcooked portions…

Review of Fast & Furious (2009)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 01 Apr 2009

Slick but idiotic action flick...doesn't have any real power, and no intelligence whatever, under its glossy hood…

Review of Sugar (2008)

Review of Adventureland (2009)

By Frank Swietek (3,473) for One Guy's Opinion (3,473) on 01 Apr 2009

Yet another quirky coming-of-age tale, it's amiable enough but rather lackadaisical, and generates neither the laughs nor the insight needed…
