Beverly Hills Chihuahua


Critics' Consensus: Little more than disposable family entertainment.

Synopsis: In Disney's unabashedly silly talking-dog movie BEVERLY HILLS CHIHUAHUA, Chloe (voiced by Drew Barrymore), the ridiculously spoiled title pet, is swept away from her comfortable 90210 existence, when the impulsive niece (Piper Perabo) of her … [More...]

Bolt


Critics' Consensus: Overcomes familiarity with strong visuals and likable characters.

Synopsis: For super-dog Bolt (voice of JOHN TRAVOLTA), every day is filled with adventure, danger and intrigue—at least until the cameras stop rolling. When the star of a hit TV show is accidentally shipped from his Hollywood soundstage to New Y… [More...]

Burn After Reading


Critics' Consensus: A clever comedy/thriller with an outlandish plot and memorable characters.

Changeling


Critics' Consensus: A compelling story that unfortunately gives in to convention too often.

Synopsis: At first, Clint Eastwood's CHANGELING could appear to be following too closely in the footsteps of his earlier Oscar winner, MYSTIC RIVER, since both films center on a missing child. But while his previous film was based on a Dennis Lehane no… [More...]

City of Ember


Critics' Consensus: A visual treat but lacking in action and adventure.

Dark Knight


Critics' Consensus: Succeeds as entertaining comic book film, and richly thrilling crime saga.

Synopsis: To say that Christopher Nolan's THE DARK KNIGHT is the best comic book adaptation does the film a bit of a disservice. It may be a Batman film, but this isn't a kid-friendly action movie full of the bams and pows of the original series. This … [More...]

Eagle Eye


Critics' Consensus: A preposterously plotted thriller that borrows heavily from other films.

Synopsis: D.J. Caruso (TAKING LIVES, DISTURBIA) directs this tale of intrigue that utilizes technology as a character. Jerry Shaw (Shia LaBeouf) is a slacker who works at Copy Cabana--until he returns home after receiving bad news about his brother to … [More...]

Fireproof


Critics' Consensus: N/A

Synopsis: FIREPROOF, from the same team that made the 2006 hit FACING THE GIANTS, is a Christian relationship drama with a very strong message. The film stars Kirk Cameron of the classic television series GROWING PAINS as Captain Caleb Holt, a fireman … [More...]

Four Christmases


Critics' Consensus: This sour holiday comedy suffers from a hackneyed script.

Haunting of Molly Hartley


Critics' Consensus: A rather lifeless horror endeavor.

Synopsis: The best horror films tap into our innermost fears, and by that standard, THE HAUNTING OF MOLLY HARTLEY puts forth a dynamite premise. After surviving a near-fatal stab wound inflicted by her religious-zealot mother, Molly (Haley Bennett, MUS… [More...]

Igor


Critics' Consensus:  With an animation style that apes Tim Burton, and a slew of cultural references that aren't clear enough to reach the crowds, Igor's patched together antics make it hard to see who the film is trying to please....

Synopsis: In a land of mad scientists and diabolical inventions, what do you do when you’re born with a hunch on your back? You become an Igor. A hilarious twist on the classic monster movie, "Igor" tells the story of one Igor who's sick of… [More...]

Journey to the Center of the Earth


Critics' Consensus: ...a fast-paced, kitschy ride.

Synopsis: This 2008 movie update of Jules Verne's classic sci-fi/fantasy novel uses the 1864 tale as a template, with its hero, scientist Trevor Anderson (Brendan Fraser), referring to his missing brother's notes on the novel. His nephew Sean (Josh Hut… [More...]
