I rented this because I'm a bit weary of '80s NBC programming and apparently I saved myself a lot of money. I have nothing against any of the actors and for their credit they do a good job but this show is flawed from the premise.<br /><br />We have a character who is unlikable. He's full of flaws, not enlightened, and... | Negative | null | null |
Some unrealistic movie spoilers included.<br /><br />From real life experiences, this movie continued to disappoint from the very beginning.

Did anyone edit this film? Or was it only the DVD release that had huge thirty second gaps between scenes? It's OK though, I fell asleep watching it the first time. Then I fell asleep the second time and the third time. The plot is actually not the worst I've seen, but it's close. The acting is not the worst I've seen ... | Negative | null | null |
Well how was I suppose to know this was "the" dumb ass promotional "Lordi Motion Picture"?

"Dark Floors" is about a young aut... | Negative | null | null |
Boring, predictable, by-the-numbers horror outing at least has pretty good special effects and plenty of (mindless) mayhem and gore to satisfy (mindless) genre fans. Mostly it's about giant rats chomping on a set of characters we don't care an iota about - if that's your thing, tune in. (*1/2) | Negative | null | null |
It's terrific when a funny movie doesn't make smile you. What a pity!! This film is very boring and so long. It's simply painfull. The story is staggering without goal and no fun.<br /><br />You feel better when it's finished. | Negative | null | null |
Those 2 points are dedicated the reasonable performance from Akshay Kumar.

I usually come on this website prior to going to the movies, as I like to see what other people think of the movie. I read many reviews which said 'thriller not a horror movie'.

Do not waste your time or your money on this movie.

It was. I can't believe this movie was actually produced an... | Negative | null | null |
This series gets 2 stars solely because it puts some of Dickens' Bleak House on film and perhaps someone will read the book. Contrary to what is probably received opinion, Diana Rigg was poor as Lady Dedlock. She was clunky and wooden. Lady D. is a reserved character but not a martinet. Denholm Elliot is wrong, wrong, ... | Negative | null | null |
Here's a review for people like me. This movie sucks from beginning to end. I threw popcorn at the screen and resorted to entertaining myself a la MSF2000. The plot hinges on chance happenings and relies on stupidity from people who are supposed to be smart. The lead falls for a con man and it doesn't occur to her that... | Negative | null | null |
"Cut" is a film about some film students making a film. It's very much in the "Scream" mold, an ironic, self-referential horror flick which, for me at least, falls down because for all its irony, it's still just a bad horror film, same as the films its referring to.<br /><br />But it was not without its charms. Well, o... | Negative | null | null |
This was a great book and the possibilities for a truly great film were definitely there. But the casting decisions completely wrecked the movie.

I gave this more than a 1 because I did think there were some moral lessons in this story and it provoked some thought and comment from my wife and I.

A major disappointment. This was one of the best UK crime drama / detective shows from the 90's which developed the fascinating title character played by Scotland's Robbie Coltrane.

This is the sorriest collection of clichés, strung together on a straight line, with no discernible plot or any decent way of acting I've seen in a long time.

Falls into the film category of "Way too ridiculous in the dialogue and execution departments to be taken seriously".

5 minutes into this movie I was hyperventilating, shaking, and writhing in pain. And not in the good way.

Cannon pulled off a real visual beauty of a medieval epic that appears fascinating (except for the dragon prop).

I don't often give one star reviews, but the computer won't let me do negative numbers.<br /><br />The opening titles tell us we're in deep water already.

MABEL AT THE WHEEL is one of those movies with a behind-the-scenes story that's more interesting than the movie itself.

It is incredible in that it succeeds in being terrible on so many levels. The script, the acting, the directing and the choice of cast are all appalling.

In Theodore Rex poor Whoopi Goldberg is set up as a tough police cop who gets to work with a pathetic dinosaur on a case.
