Fr. Chris Carpenter
|
Jules Stewart makes a confident directorial debut. Although the screenplay comes perilously close at times to sensationalizing or stereotyping the characters, Stewart wisely resists.

The Ten
(2007)
|
Neil Cohen
|
The humor in The Ten is hit-or-miss, with some of the comedy and performances feeling kind of forced. Still, if you're in the mood for an unconventional Sunday school lesson, go see The Ten, "as a goof"!

Sunshine
(2007)
|
Neil Cohen
|
Despite referencing endless other better sci-fi films, Sunshine is its own glowing creation. Danny Boyle's visual talent and a terrific cast elevate the mundane aspects of the script.

Sicko
(2007)

Nobody with a heart and soul could leave unchanged after seeing this scalpel-sharp documentary...I have three words of advice this summer: Seek out Sicko!

Ratatouille
(2007)
|
Neil Cohen
|
Would that these culinary rats could have put a little spice into "No Reservations"! Ratatouille is an animated love letter to the art of fine cuisine, creating it, enjoying it, and even critiquing it. It's almost too mature in its devotion to its subject

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
(2007)
|
Neil Cohen
|
Unlike the Star Trek films, the Harry Potter films excel in their odd-numbered outings. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is lighter and quicker than "Goblet of Fire" and ten times more enjoyable.

Transformers
(2007)
|
Neil Cohen
|
Eventually, though, the big metal things start talking and possessing names like Optimus Prime, Ratchet, and Bumblebee. This is the point that separates the men from the boy-geeks, and I just couldn't make that leap.

No Reservations
(2007)

No Reservations made me hungry...for a romantic comedy not as bland and undercooked as this forgettable trifle.

The Simpsons Movie
(2007)
|
Neil Cohen
|
Something's rotten in the town of Springfield--Is it any surprise that it traces back to Homer and a giant silo full of pig crap? The Simpsons Movie does the impossible, it turns the brilliant show into a classic movie experience.

Stardust is a magical mystery tour with just enough self-aware wit and great performances to make it a bright spot in summer films!
