entertaining thriller
1
brainless , but enjoyably over-the-top , the retro gang melodrama
1
compelling mix
1
really vocalized
1
but one relentlessly depressing situation after another for its entire running time

tiresomely derivative and hammily acted .
0
a clarity of purpose and even-handedness

a feel-good movie about which you can actually feel good

it cooks conduct in a low , smoky and inviting sizzle .
1
an almost sure-fire prescription
1
greatest adventure
1
mind crappy movies as much as adults
0
exceptionally dreary and overwrought bit
0
that deserved better than a ` direct-to-video ' release
1
some of the most inventive silliness you are likely to witness in a movie theater for some time .
1
felt emotions can draw people together across the walls that might otherwise separate them
1
ultimately the story compels
1
cheapo animation ( like saturday morning tv in the '60s )

is guaranteed to lift the spirits of the whole family

a refreshingly smart and newfangled variation on several themes derived from far less sophisticated and knowing horror films

slickly staged
1
this too-long , spoofy update
0
too convenient

high above run-of-the-filth gangster flicks

0
kiddie entertainment , sophisticated wit and

he 's just adjusting
0
it 's quite enough to lessen the overall impact the movie could have had
0
downright intoxicating
1
clotted
0
great idea
1
daytime tv serviceability , but little more

1
as a dentist 's waiting room

the movie is loaded with good intentions , but in his zeal to squeeze the action and our emotions into the all-too-familiar dramatic arc of the holocaust escape story , minac drains his movie of all individuality .
0
the passion , creativity , and fearlessness of one of mexico 's most colorful and controversial artists -- a captivating drama that will speak to the nonconformist in us all

in european markets , where mr. besson is a brand name , and in asia , where ms. shu is an institution
1
a riveting profile of law enforcement , and a visceral , nasty journey
1
improbable as this premise may seem , abbass 's understated

that manages to invest real humor
1
unforgivingly inconsistent
0
spent watching this waste of time
0
crisp , unaffected style
1
it 's sweet , funny , charming , and completely delightful .

a chance to see three splendid actors turn a larky chase movie into an emotionally satisfying exploration of the very human need to be somebody , and to belong to somebody .
1
good actors , even kingsley ,
1
does n't disappoint .
1
deliver a fair bit of vampire fun
1
endearing and
1
the humor , characterization , poignancy , and intelligence
1
's crafty , energetic and smart
1
it 's the kind of movie that , aside from robert altman , spike lee , the coen brothers and a few others , our moviemakers do n't make often enough .

an undeniably moving film to experience ,
1
intimate and intelligent
1
exquisitely
1
is on his way to becoming the american indian spike lee .
1
no , it 's not as single-minded as john carpenter 's original , but it 's sure a lot smarter and more unnerving than the sequels

retelling
0
demonstrates just how far his storytelling skills have eroded
0
mopes through a dreary tract of virtually plotless meanderings
0
yet in its own aloof , unreachable way it 's so fascinating you wo n't be able to look away for a second .

the folks who prepare

constant smiles and frequent laughter
1
ludicrous , but director carl franklin adds enough flourishes and freak-outs to make it entertaining .
1
nifty plot line
