a non-britney person might survive a screening with little harm done , except maybe for the last 15 minutes , which are as maudlin as any after-school special you can imagine .
0
the film , which gives you an idea just how bad it was
0
of small-town competition
1
this film 's cast is uniformly superb
1
you are wet in some places
0
an idea of expectation
1
is even worse than i imagined a movie ever could be .
0
a cutesy romantic tale with a twist .
1
but it has an ambition to say something about its subjects , but not a willingness .
0
the film 's plot may be shallow , but you 've never seen the deep like you see it in these harrowing surf shots .
1
improvise and scream their way around this movie directionless , lacking any of the rollicking dark humor so necessary
0
rank frustration from those
0
falling into the hollywood trap
0
an incredibly heavy-handed , manipulative dud that feels all too familiar .
0
inviting
1
in a fresh way
1
is almost nothing in this flat effort that will amuse or entertain them ,
0
a pretentious and ultimately empty examination of a sick and evil woman .
0
bolstered by an astonishing voice cast ( excepting love hewitt ) , an interesting racial tension , and a storyline that i have n't encountered since at least pete 's dragon
1
leaves an awful sour taste
0
cold , sterile and lacking
0
is so bleak that it 's hardly watchable
0
what `` empire '' lacks in depth it makes up for with its heart .
1
comic slugfest
1
gentle but insistent
1
coming through in the end
1
have been richer and more observant if it were less densely plotted
0
damning and damned compelling
1
solid acting and a neat premise
1
not-so-funny gags , scattered moments of lazy humor
0
's relentlessly folksy , a procession of stagy set pieces stacked with binary oppositions
0
symbolic
1
has the potential for touched by an angel simplicity and
1
will capture the minds and hearts of many
1
remarkably fuddled about motives and context , which drains it of the dramatic substance that would shake us in our boots ( or cinema seats )
0
great sympathy and intelligence
1
put hairs on your chest
1
grand-scale
1
with a single
1
's most thoughtful films about art , ethics , and the cost of moral compromise .
1
the phoniness of female-bonding pictures like divine secrets of the ya-ya sisterhood
0
ultimate point -- that everyone should be themselves --
1
looks great , has solid acting and a neat premise .
1
gets bogged down over 140 minutes .
0
of loss
0
the most surprising thing about this film is that they are actually releasing it into theaters .
0
but is sabotaged by ticking time bombs and other hollywood-action cliches .
0
pointless
0
the best case
1
larded with exposition
0
( gulpilil ) is a commanding screen presence , and his character 's abundant humanism makes him the film 's moral compass .
1
, i 'd take ( its ) earnest errors and hard-won rewards over the bombastic self-glorification of other feel-good fiascos like antwone fisher or the emperor 's club any time .
1
aggravating and
0
you wanting more
1
should be able to appreciate the wonderful cinematography and naturalistic acting .
1
the only surprise is that heavyweights joel silver and robert zemeckis agreed to produce this
0
black-and-white and unrealistic .
0
charm and heart
1
a stale copy
0
can outgag any of those young whippersnappers making moving pictures today
1
barely interesting
0
the one-liners are snappy , the situations volatile and the comic opportunities richly rewarded .
1
tooled action thriller about love and terrorism
1
is a convincing one , and
1
saddens
0
though it 's not very well shot or composed or edited , the score is too insistent and the dialogue is frequently overwrought and crudely literal , the film shatters you in waves .
0
little uneven
0
felt myself powerfully drawn toward the light -- the light of the exit sign
0
an overly sillified plot and
0
nails sy 's queasy infatuation and overall strangeness
0
a bodice-ripper for intellectuals .
1
smug and cartoonish
0
thumbs down
0
are nowhere near
0
to shyamalan 's self-important summer fluff
0
surprising , subtle turn
1
in its willingness to explore its principal characters with honesty , insight and humor
1
see : terrorists are more evil than ever !
0
captures the debilitating grief
1
that is part biography , part entertainment and part history
1
all the small moments and flashbacks
1
it 's pleasant enough and
1
greatest teacher
1
unflappable air
1
quite the career peak
1
noble teacher
1
a finely tuned mood
1
another smash
1
standard thriller and drag audience enthusiasm
0
( clooney 's ) debut can be accused of being a bit undisciplined , but
0
're over 25 , have an iq over 90 ,
0
in other words , it 's badder than bad .
0
satisfy the boom-bam crowd
1
sharp and
1
fest of self-congratulation between actor and director that leaves scant place for the viewer
0
the movie 's ultimate point -- that everyone should be themselves -- is trite
0
grotesque narcissism
0
does n't feel like a film that strays past the two and a half mark
