Central Station (1998) 94% 3.5/4 EDIT “A masterpiece of sincere emotion. ” – Miami Herald Jan 5, 2023 Full Review Edge of Seventeen (1998) 79% 3.5/4 EDIT “It's a fine debut script by Stephens, and Moreton is able to get startling performances out of his neophyte actors.” – Miami Herald Aug 17, 2021 Full Review Bart Got a Room (2008) 69% 3/4 EDIT “...A movie that has consistently entertained audiences on the festival circuit since its premiere at Tribeca in April.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Dec 1, 2008 Full Review Golden Door (2006) 73% 2/4 EDIT “There's a big difference between slowly unfurling a difficult story so that it rewards a patient audience, and simply teasing viewers nearly to the point of torture. The Golden Door [skirts] dangerously close to the torturous.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Jun 21, 2007 Full Review Shrek the Third (2007) 41% 2/4 EDIT “Shrek the Third has a maddeningly plodding pace. It's less a movie than a shiny magnet installed in theaters to take your money.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel May 17, 2007 Full Review Waitress (2007) 89% 3/4 EDIT “Waitress shows Shelly, just 40 when she was killed, to be a filmmaker of poise and promise. It's tragic that promise was never realized beyond this sweet, if slight, project -- but still a decent tribute to Shelly's multifaceted abilities.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel May 10, 2007 Full Review Away From Her (2006) 94% 3/4 EDIT “Heartrending, elegant and restrained, Away From Her is a wonderful showcase for not just Christie and the rest of its powerful cast, but for Polley's multidimensional skills.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel May 10, 2007 Full Review Georgia Rule (2007) 19% 3/4 EDIT “A far better, more absorbing melodrama than its titular conceit would have you expect.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel May 10, 2007 Full Review The Ex (2006) 18% 1/4 EDIT “The Ex, directed with a breathtaking lack of instinct by Jesse Peretz, is always at least a half-beat off.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel May 10, 2007 Full Review 28 Weeks Later (2007) 73% 2/4 EDIT “Many things happen in 28 Weeks Later, but you watch all of them with a sense of detachment. There is idle curiosity about who will be killed next, and how, but no real investment in their fates.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel May 10, 2007 Full Review Gringo Wedding (2006) 0/4 EDIT “There are a lot of offensive things about Gringo Wedding, an ostensible romantic comedy partially made in South Florida. It's racist, sexist and homophobic. But perhaps most galling is how stupid it is.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel May 4, 2007 Full Review Lucky You (2007) 28% 2/4 EDIT “By all rights, this should be terrible -- but it's not. It's simply mediocre.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel May 3, 2007 Full Review Spider-Man 3 (2007) 63% 3.5/4 EDIT “The best installment of the saga yet, in large part because its villains are so much more compelling than those past.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel May 3, 2007 Full Review Hot Fuzz (2007) 91% 3/4 EDIT “When it comes to a movie as consistently hilarious as Hot Fuzz, it's better to have too much of a good thing than too little.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Apr 19, 2007 Full Review Fracture (2007) 72% 3/4 EDIT “It's been quite a few years since we've had an intelligent, engaging legal thriller. Into the void slips Fracture, which fits the bill thanks to a polished script, great stars and a director perfectly suited for this territory.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Apr 19, 2007 Full Review Disturbia (2007) 69% 2.5/4 EDIT “Not high art, but it serves its purpose.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Apr 12, 2007 Full Review Perfect Stranger (2007) 9% 1/4 EDIT “Perfect Stranger is Halle Berry's latest descent into career purgatory.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Apr 12, 2007 Full Review The Hoax (2006) 85% 3/4 EDIT “Twisty, quite fun and generally bereft of sentimentality. It is, in short, just about the last movie you'd expect Lasse Hallström to make.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Apr 5, 2007 Full Review Grindhouse (2007) 84% 3.5/4 EDIT “Further proof that every movie is better when it has zombies in it, Planet Terror also demonstrates that every movie is better when it features a retired stripper/aspiring stand-up comedian with a machine gun in place of her freshly amputated leg.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Apr 5, 2007 Full Review Shooter (2007) 47% 3/4 EDIT “Shooter is a well-timed reminder that cinematic violence can qualify as something other than mindless -- it can even, in deft hands, be mindful.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Mar 22, 2007 Full Review Pride (2007) 47% 2.5/4 EDIT “Pride is so unapologetically earnest in its inspirational values, you either want to love it or kill it.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Mar 22, 2007 Full Review I Think I Love My Wife (2007) 18% 2/4 EDIT “There are just enough great lines to keep this uneven comedy from devolving into a complete mess, but it never coalesces into anything of substance or real quality.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Mar 15, 2007 Full Review Premonition (2007) 8% 2/4 EDIT “The movie does deserve credit for sticking to an ending no one at the studio could have wanted. We would, however, like to premonish that the conclusion is equally unlikely to satisfy the audience.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Mar 15, 2007 Full Review Breaking and Entering (2006) 34% 3.5/4 EDIT “Deserves to be celebrated as a work that comes closer than any other to achieving what the filmmaker does best: Reminding us that no matter what is happening on a larger scale, we are defined by our interpersonal relationships.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Mar 9, 2007 Full Review 300 (2007) 61% 1.5/4 EDIT “The hilariously bombastic story about the ancient Battle of Thermopylae is very much like spending two hours watching someone play a video game.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Mar 8, 2007 Full Review
