A Scanner Darkly (2006) |
"...while I didn't care overmuch for the movie itself, I did enjoy its visual style, made even more appealing now for its high-definition picture. (HD-DVD Edition)" |

A.D. Police: To Protect and Serve (2002) |
"“A.D. Police” sticks to one principal story arc, and that is its primary strength as well as primary weakness." |

A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001) |
"I was not completely caught up in the allegorical implications of the story; perhaps I was too much aware of the
director’s attempts to be profound too much of the time." |

Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948) |
"...the second-least-expensive film Universal made in 1948 and their second-biggest-grossing film of the year. They got their money's worth.

About Schmidt (2002) |
"the road trip Jack Nicholson’s character makes will feel like a sad Winnebago reprisal of the motorcycle adventure he took as a young actor in Easy Rider" |

Ace Ventura Deluxe Double Feature (1993) |
