The Pink Panther (2006) 21% “It has some interesting riffs on French/American clichés, but it isn't interested in creating something other than a string of gags.” – Flak Magazine Jun 7, 2018 Full Review Pineapple Express (2008) 68% “David Gordon Green seems to have used this template as some sort of experiment... Green's method is like a stone-cold killer in a John Woo movie: He makes us laugh, then immediately shoots us in the face.” – Flak Magazine Jun 7, 2018 Full Review Friends With Benefits (2011) 69% 6/10 “A Central Station flashmob of a movie.” – Film Snobs Aug 1, 2011 Full Review Bad Teacher (2011) 45% 6/10 “The only way to understand this movie's argument about performance pay is to imagine Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker watching it.” – Film Snobs Jul 26, 2011 Full Review Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 (2011) 96% 8/10 “Harry Potter isn't about the wand choosing the wizard; it's about what education should be about: transforming imagination into reality.” – Film Snobs Jul 15, 2011 Full Review Everything Must Go (2010) 73% 8/10 “Will Ferrell isn't stunt casting--his size and deadpan are essential to the character.” – Film Snobs Jul 5, 2011 Full Review The Beaver (2011) 63% 4/10 “Jodie Foster invites us to laugh at this guy who talks through a puppet, then scolds us for doing so.” – Film Snobs Jul 5, 2011 Full Review The Hangover Part II (2011) 34% 4/10 “More a horror than a comedic film, as if Todd Phillips is making a kind of "Heart of Darkness" argument with Bangkok as his backdrop.” – Film Snobs Jul 5, 2011 Full Review Bridesmaids (2011) 89% 4/10 “By filling the plot hole of Lillian's cluelessness with explosive diarrhea, the film undermines the whole "Apatowian Female Comedy" idea.” – Film Snobs Jul 5, 2011 Full Review Midnight in Paris (2011) 93% 9/10 “"Midnight in Paris," a parable about romanticism and nostalgia, recalls Early Owen as much as Early Woody.” – Film Snobs Jul 5, 2011 Full Review Larry Crowne (2011) 36% 5/10 “"Larry Crowne" is made precisely for people like Larry Crowne.” – Film Snobs Jul 5, 2011 Full Review The A-Team (2010) 48% 4/10 “Ocean's Eleven if conceieved by Tony Scott.” – Film Snobs Jun 20, 2010 Full Review Ghost Writer (1989) 6/10 “Polanski creates a sublime image of Tony Blair: A man who traps himself in a storm-battered glass house because he lacks the courage of his convictions.” – Film Snobs Jun 10, 2010 Full Review Sex and the City 2 (2010) 16% 0/10 “Samantha does everything but draw a picture of the Prophet Muhammad on a pair of crotchless panties.” – Flak Magazine Jun 10, 2010 Full Review Iron Man 2 (2010) 72% 5/10 “Tony Stark is Dick Cheney's foreign policy driven by Grover Norquist's fiscal policy, sold to the public by Ari Gold. Very confusing.” – Flak Magazine Jun 10, 2010 Full Review MacGruber (2010) 47% 7/10 “Perhaps a satire of Nicolas Cage's Jerry Bruckheimer movies.” – Film Snobs Jun 10, 2010 Full Review Letters to Juliet (2010) 43% 5/10 “Asking Juliet Capulet for relationship advice is a little bit like asking John McCain for campaign consulting, isn't it?” – Film Snobs May 17, 2010 Full Review Kick-Ass (2010) 78% 0/5 “It's deeply immoral to turn a ten year old girl into The Bride from "Kill Bill" and pretend it's just a cartoon.” – Film Snobs May 13, 2010 Full Review Date Night (2010) 67% 5/10 “Instead of shooting for 'It Happened One Night,' it opts for being 'The Hangover' for married people.” – Film Snobs Apr 8, 2010 Full Review Hot Tub Time Machine (2010) 64% 4/5 “John Cusack's response to the canonization of John Hughes.” – Film Snobs Apr 6, 2010 Full Review Michael Jackson's This Is It (2009) 81% 3/5 “'This is It' is tied together by an aesthetic that can only be called Synthetic Intimacy.” – Film Snobs Jan 8, 2010 Full Review Precious: Based on the Novel "Push" by Sapphire (2009) 92% 4/5 “To say 'Precious' is exploitative because it's bleak is to argue that Jonathan Kozol shouldn't have written 'Savage Inequalities' because it shows urban schools in a bad light.” – Film Snobs Jan 8, 2010 Full Review The Young Victoria (2009) 75% 2.5/5 “If Molly Ringwold had taken a shot at 'respectability' in a Merchant Ivory Oscar-bait film, this might have been the perfect screenplay.” – Film Snobs Jan 8, 2010 Full Review Crazy Heart (2009) 90% 3/5 “The difference between 'Crazy Heart' and 'The Wrestler' is the quality of the female characters.” – Film Snobs Jan 8, 2010 Full Review Me and Orson Welles (2008) 86% 4/5 “Linklater shows how Welles' hubris take him from the Caesar of his own theater to playing Falstaff on 'The Dean Martin Show.'” – Film Snobs Jan 8, 2010 Full Review
