Sharkwater (2006)
81%
B+
EDIT
“It may seem strange to contemplate the possibility that sharks are more victim than vicious. Yet after Stewart makes his case you may find them and their cause, as he does, all-consuming.” –

B+
EDIT
“This delightful piece of whimsy uses its simple premise effectively to gain and keep our attention and to remind us simply that, while this world appears ordinary, it is still unbounded by reality.” –

“By 2020, when NASA's Orion lunar spacecraft is scheduled to launch, it's unlikely that any Apollo veterans will still be alive. Sington has done us a service in helping preserve their memories.” –

Daddy Day Camp (2007)
1%
C-
EDIT
“The film exercises some restraint (by today's low standards, anyway) in its deployment of poop and fart jokes. I counted only two crotch wallops (the new pratfall) and just a single incident of projectile vomiting.” –

L'Iceberg (2005)

A
EDIT
“Words seldom intrude on the sight gags that range from elegant to acrobatic, and the collective directors exhibit the rare bravery to let a static camera linger to crank comic tension.” –

B+
EDIT
“Director George Ratliff plays pitch-perfect on the tautly wound strings of our innermost fears that nothing -- not love, wealth or intelligence -- can protect us from the monsters we harbor.” –

EDIT
“The film's techniques are implicit, not explicit, its soothing images of rural highways and nighttime solitude conveying the social blankness its subjects report.” –

“As roughly constructed as an earthenware jar, the meticulous pacing obstructs suspense, yet it offers an absorbing view of this cultural collision.” –

A Prairie Home Companion (2006)

C+
EDIT
“While Altman's signature spontaneity conveys the danger of a live broadcast, the puncturing irreverence that made his films from Nashville to Gosford Park so devilishly fun has been neutered by Keillor's sentimentality.” –
