The Critical Movie Critics

I'm an old, miserable fart set in his ways. Some of the things that bring a smile to my face are (in no particular order): Teenage back acne, the rain on my face, long walks on the beach and redneck women named Francis. Oh yeah, I like to watch and criticize movies.


Movie Review: Rush Hour 3 (2007)

This is definitely the year of trilogies. Spider-Man 3, Shrek the Third and Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End started the summer season off. Now Rush Hour 3 hits the silver screen and I must say, I’m a bit surprised by this release — after all it’s been six years since Rush Hour 2…

Movie Review: Daddy Day Camp (2007)

Trash comes in many forms. In 2003, it came in the form of “Daddy Day Care.” Today, it comes in the form of it’s sequel Daddy Day Camp. How do I know it’s garbage? Simple, when the star of the first movie (Eddie Murphy), or hell anyone from the first movie passes on the script,…

Movie Review: Hot Rod (2007)

After a long hiatus from the silver screen, Lorne Michaels and his SNL Studios are once again backing a few of his Saturday Night Live comics in a feature presentation. More often than not, these forays into the unknown produce dismal movies (see “The Ladies Man” and “Superstar”) that become minor hits thanks to Blockbuster…

Movie Review: Bratz: The Movie (2007)

No, we didn’t start another ill-founded war or take advantage of another poverty stricken region. No, this time we’re glorifying our excesses with the adolescent flick Bratz: The Movie. For…

Movie Review: Beneath (2007)

Last night in a moment weakness (also known as boredom) I sat down to watch Beneath. It’s an MTV production and even though they’ve had their hands in some relatively good movies lately like “Blades of Glory” and “Jackass Number Two,” I set my set my expectations low enough to not be upset if the…

Movie Review: No Reservations (2007)

Just a week or so ago, I reviewed the movie “I Could Never be Your Woman.” At the end of the review I mentioned I didn’t think any good romantic comedies were on the horizon. Well, guess what. I was wrong. One has indeed popped up and slapped me in the face. I’m not exactly…

Movie Review: Skinwalkers (2006)

Werewolves seem to be enjoying a resurgence. The “Underworld” series and to a lesser extent, movies like “Blood and Chocolate” has made them cool again. And as of late there certainly appears to be a lot of buzz about Skinwalkers. I’m not entirely sure why, but whatever the reason, it was enough to pique my…
