80 40% Jaws (1975) - Rated 01 Apr 2008
"Great but a little overrated. Mainly interesting for me because it gives you a good look at Hollywood filmmaking on the eve of the Spielberg reformation."
80 40% The Wild Bunch (1969) - Rated 01 Apr 2008
"Not as good as Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia, but the final sequence - from the walk-up to the mow-down - is one of the best bloody action tragedy sequences."
90 72% Nothing But Trouble (1991) - Rated 01 Apr 2008
"A surrealist masterpiece from the people behind SNL and SCTV. It has a weird tone that some people mistake as either incompetence or hubris or runaway nonsense, but if you think of it as a long nightmare sequence then the pieces fall into place."
80 40% Le Samouraï (1967) - Rated 01 Apr 2008
"Great opening shot, the rest sets a brilliant tone even thought I can't remember exactly what happens."
85 59% Beowulf (2007) - Rated 01 Apr 2008
"A great Robert Zemeckis movie about a giant asshole who saves some other assholes from a monster who looks like a sensitive teenager and his hot mom. It has a script which makes sense of an uninteresting epic, and justifies digitial filmmaking by doing amazing things with the camera."
60 22% Cellular (2004) - Rated 01 Apr 2008
"Plucky product placement"
15 9% The Simpsons Movie (2007) - Rated 01 Apr 2008
"2007 had some really bad movies, but most of them demonstrated as little return on investment or respect for the audience as this one did. The best part about watching The Simpsons on TV is that when it gets really shitty you can change the channel, but with this movie I was confronted with the three-part horror of a giant screen, a laughing audience, and a slew of good reviews that kept me in the theater under the impression that it would get better at some point. Worst movie of 2008."
15 9% Must Love Dogs (2005) - Rated 01 Apr 2008
"Worst movie of 2005, by many measures. Everything about it is so lazy and pointless that, like Cellular the year before, it only makes sense as an advertisement (for dating service PerfectMatch.com)."
90 72% The Nutty Professor (1963) - Rated 01 Apr 2008
"I don't find it all that funny but it's the best movie about personality that I've ever seen, and tragic to the point that you might even tear up."
100 95% Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) - Rated 01 Apr 2008
"Favorite movie of all-time. If you want to know how Americans think, see this movie."
