Allah Made Me Funny: Live in Concert (2008) 54% EDIT “Allah may have made these men funny, but he didn't bestow much in the way of filmmaking skills.” – Los Angeles Daily News Oct 3, 2008 Full Review Death Race (2008) 41% 1.5/4 EDIT “A movie in which road rage is justified. Yours will be, too, if you spend $10 on this.” – Los Angeles Daily News Aug 22, 2008 Full Review Bottle Shock (2008) 48% 2.5/4 EDIT “Rickman's fish-out-of-water act (in farm country, the man never loses his suit and tie) makes for Bottle Shock's sunniest moments.” – Los Angeles Daily News Aug 6, 2008 Full Review The Stone Angel (2007) 46% EDIT “Old lady on the road takes a memory trip, giving Burstyn a chance to shine.” – Los Angeles Daily News Jul 11, 2008 Full Review Nim's Island (2008) 51% 2/4 EDIT “I'm not sure what's more depressing: seeing potential tween megastar Abigail Breslin underused or watching Jodie Foster clutching a Progresso soup can for dear life and smacking head-first into a tree.” – Los Angeles Daily News Apr 4, 2008 Full Review The Grand (2008) 40% EDIT “[Director] Penn could not have selected a more spoof-worthy venue than the world of high-stakes Texas Hold 'Em, and he has packed his film with actors -- many of them sitcom or sketch comedy stars -- who get the point of the exercise.” – Los Angeles Daily News Mar 21, 2008 Full Review The Business of Being Born (2007) 81% 2.5/4 EDIT “Contending that America's mothers would be far better off if deliveries were taken out of the hands of obstetricians and hospitals, director/producer Abby Epstein and executive producer Ricki Lake will push buttons, but they won't jab them.” – Los Angeles Daily News Jan 18, 2008 Full Review The Life of Reilly (2006) 98% 3.5/4 EDIT “Assembled from Reilly's final performance of Save It for the Stage in North Hollywood, Life of Reilly is as charming and disarmingly affecting as the man himself.” – Los Angeles Daily News Nov 9, 2007 Full Review Martian Child (2007) 35% 2.5/4 EDIT “You might expect a serious-minded movie about a troubled kid who really thinks he's from Mars to confront the fact that this kid really is troubled. Not so much, here.” – Los Angeles Daily News Nov 2, 2007 Full Review Quantum Hoops (2007) 81% 3/4 EDIT “These teams may be genuinely awful, or simply overmatched, but [director]Greenwald honors them, their brainy players and their Job-like coaches alike.” – Los Angeles Daily News Nov 2, 2007 Full Review Raising Flagg (2006) 23% EDIT “Feels like a TV movie.” – Los Angeles Daily News Sep 28, 2007 Full Review December Boys (2007) 41% 3/4 EDIT “Radcliffe -- in full benevolent leadership -- clearly has a future as a young adult performer once he shelves Harry Potter's wand once and for all.” – Los Angeles Daily News Sep 14, 2007 Full Review Blame It on Fidel (2006) 93% 3/4 EDIT “Gavras' film captures both the time period and the queasy inconsistencies of childhood. And in Kervel, Gavras has found a real gem.” – Los Angeles Daily News Sep 14, 2007 Full Review I Want Someone to Eat Cheese With (2006) 73% 2/4 EDIT “Jeff Garlin, the former Second City actor who plays Larry David's manager on Curb Your Enthusiasm, has spun his solo show into a movie that's, alas, pretty light on laughs.” – Los Angeles Daily News Sep 14, 2007 Full Review Bratz (2007) 10% 1.5/4 EDIT “At least they don't have the girls dolled up as the next freshman class at Lap Dancing Tech.” – Los Angeles Daily News Aug 3, 2007 Full Review Macbeth (2006) 49% 2.5/4 EDIT “Grunge and slickness substitute for eeriness or any hint of psychological terror.” – Los Angeles Daily News Jul 27, 2007 Full Review Hollywood Dreams (2006) 39% 2.5/4 EDIT “This might play funnier and less off-putting were if Frederick's Margie was not so disquietingly desperate.” – Los Angeles Daily News May 18, 2007 Full Review Brooklyn Rules (2007) 45% 2/4 EDIT “The friends, the neighborhood, the loyalty, the bloodshed, Alec Baldwin playing a bad-ass wise guy... feel free to stop me when all this stops sounding familiar.” – Los Angeles Daily News May 18, 2007 Full Review Downtown: A Street Tale (2004) 27% 2/4 EDIT “[Director] Zielinski's attempts at serving up grunge and grittiness largely fall flat. Scenes of sex and drug use are typically accompanied by a swooning and intrusive soundtrack.” – Los Angeles Daily News May 11, 2007 Full Review Duck (2005) 50% 2.5/4 EDIT “Possessed of one of the most hangdog faces in Hollywood, Hall meshes expertly with the movie's hopeful sadness. That we watch him toting a live duck around without once losing his dignity -- or breaking out in laughter -- has to count for something.” – Los Angeles Daily News May 11, 2007 Full Review The Ex (2006) 18% 2/4 EDIT “Bateman, who played a good guy on Arrested Development, proves rather easy to despise, especially once his malevolence loses its comic edge.” – Los Angeles Daily News May 11, 2007 Full Review Next (2007) 28% 2.5/4 EDIT “Next is a series of artfully choreographed linked pursuits with Moore convincing as the hard-nosed leader of the pursuit team.” – Los Angeles Daily News Apr 27, 2007 Full Review In the Land of Women (2007) 43% 3.5/4 EDIT “Apart from leaning a bit much on his soundtrack and letting Olympia Dukakis indulge her crazy-granny jones, Kasdan does his work with a largely steady hand.” – Los Angeles Daily News Apr 20, 2007 Full Review The TV Set (2006) 64% 3/4 EDIT “The TV Set, written and directed by longtime tube toiler Jake Kasdan, gets it both right and funny.” – Los Angeles Daily News Apr 7, 2007 Full Review The Reaping (2007) 7% 1.5/4 EDIT “Amidst such mayhem, there isn't much for a two time Oscar winner like Swank to do with herself, except reach out soulfully to the girl who may be the Antichrist.” – Los Angeles Daily News Apr 6, 2007 Full Review
