Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983) 83% 3/4 “Removed from the overly familiar context of the trilogy, Return of the Jedi can only be recommended to moviegoers looking for high adventure. There's simply too much first-rate action here to be missed on a big screen.” – Kansas City Star Apr 25, 2025 Full Review Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980) 93% 3.5/4 “The epic bottom line? If you see only one Star Wars reissue in the galaxy this year, for pure fun and excitement make it The Empire Strikes Back.” – Kansas City Star Apr 23, 2025 Full Review A Goofy Movie (1995) 64% 2.5/4 “The results are cute but unremarkable, especially compared to such Disney animated spectaculars as "Beauty and the Beast" and "The Lion King." Even so, "A Goofy Movie" proves satisfying in a Saturday-morning-온라인카지노추천 way.” – Kansas City Star Apr 1, 2025 Full Review Scream 3 (2000) 43% 1.5/4 “The supposedly shocking wrap-up to director Wes Craven's tongue-in-cheek trilogy of Gen X slasher flicks is about as surprising as finding chewing gum under your theater seat. ” – Kansas City Star Feb 19, 2025 Full Review Hercules (1997) 83% 3/4 “It's a vessel of pure entertainment that pours out exactly what family audiences have come to expect from the Disney fun factory. The movie is a spoonful of sugar without the medicine. ” – Kansas City Star Dec 18, 2024 Full Review 10 Things I Hate About You (1999) 71% 2/4 “What 10 Things I Hate About You could have used, besides a less contrived teen title, is more teen laughs.” – Kansas City Star Jul 12, 2023 Full Review Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007) 37% 3/4 “Clocking in at a mere yet mighty 92 minutes, this superior sequel to 2005's Fantastic Four skillfully crams loads of action, humor and even (gasp!) character development into its short but sweet flight of comic-book inspired fantasy.” – Kansas City Star Jun 15, 2007 Full Review Blades of Glory (2007) 70% 2.5/4 “Ferrell's best laugh-out-loud vehicle since Anchorman.” – Kansas City Star Mar 30, 2007 Full Review Stomp the Yard (2007) 27% 2/4 “Some viewers may feel as if they're sharing in the struggle and splendor that leads to a national step-dancing tournament. But the more you've seen this sort of inspirational tale before, the less likely you are to be interested in its parade of clichés.” – Kansas City Star Jan 12, 2007 Full Review Eragon (2006) 15% 2/4 “Any hint of narrative complexity or character development is wiped out by the film's slavishly straightforward storyline, and its special effects that might be state-of-the-art but never show anything we haven't seen before.” – Kansas City Star Dec 15, 2006 Full Review School for Scoundrels (2006) 26% 1/4 “There has to be something intrinsically lovable about a hapless character to draw in an audience. That's what Heder did as misfit-outsider Napoleon Dynamite. And it's just not happening here.” – Kansas City Star Sep 29, 2006 Full Review Nanny McPhee (2005) 74% 3/4 “Don't expect to leave the theater singing -- Nanny McPhee isn't a musical -- but you'll be grinning. You may not even care if your snaggletooth is showing.” – Kansas City Star Jan 27, 2006 Full Review Hoodwinked! (2005) 46% 1.5/4 “Everything appears generic and overly simplified, like something you would expect on Nickelodeon -- and that's probably not giving Nickelodeon enough credit.” – Kansas City Star Jan 13, 2006 Full Review Cheaper by the Dozen 2 (2005) 8% 1.5/4 “There is no hilarity, just a couple of veteran funnymen going through the hellishly predictable motions in this unimaginative and unnecessary sequel.” – Kansas City Star Dec 21, 2005 Full Review Where the Truth Lies (2005) 41% 1.5/4 “Take away the kinky sex -- the reason for no MPAA rating -- and there's even less to be interested in.” – Kansas City Star Nov 11, 2005 Full Review Saw II (2005) 38% 2/4 “A greater number of humans in peril doesn't mean better terror in Saw II. It just means more hammy acting, smashing, yelling, begging, burning, cutting and stabbing.” – Kansas City Star Oct 28, 2005 Full Review Doom (2005) 18% 1.5/4 “Doom borrows gimmicks from other sci-fi/horror movies -- and not very well -- without creating enough of its own to do the trick.” – Kansas City Star Oct 21, 2005 Full Review Two for the Money (2005) 22% 2/4 “Like any winning streak, it can't last. And neither did my interest, mostly because the movie kept telling me something I already knew: Gambling addiction is sad.” – Kansas City Star Oct 7, 2005 Full Review John Q (2002) 26% “No doubt the star and everyone else involved had their hearts in the right place. Where their heads were is anyone's guess.” – Kansas City Star Feb 15, 2002 Full Review Not Another Teen Movie (2001) 32% “Perhaps the most tasteless comedy ever aimed at a multiplex. At least until the sequel.” – Kansas City Star Dec 15, 2001 Full Review Vanilla Sky (2001) 42% “It's both fascinating and frustrating.” – Kansas City Star Dec 15, 2001 Full Review Black Knight (2001) 15% “Despite a few decently manic moments from its goofball star, Black Knight is a royal waste of time.” – Kansas City Star Nov 23, 2001 Full Review Spy Game (2001) 64% “Watching [Redford] so winningly wrap himself around an interesting role made me feel as if he'd never left his peak leading-man stature of more than a generation ago.” – Kansas City Star Nov 22, 2001 Full Review Shallow Hal (2001) 49% “A comedy that struggles to be both naughty and nice and is effectively neither.” – Kansas City Star Nov 10, 2001 Full Review Domestic Disturbance (2001) 23% “Although it's formulaic to the hilt, Domestic Disturbance ratchets up the tension like a fine whine.” – Kansas City Star Nov 2, 2001 Full Review
