DVD Release Date: February 8, 2011
Wild Target

Rated by critic:

Rated by users:

Dire crimes are committed in Jonathan Lynn's film about a prissy hitman and gaffe-prone kleptomaniac who go on the run, most of them allegedly in the name of comedy. Horrible pop tunes are layered over sequences of gritted-teeth mirth. Rupert...... more »

Stardust

Rated by critic:

Rated by users:

The tremendously enchanting Stardust runs on a double dose of star power. Traditional Hollywood stars are stockpiled in the cast. Michelle Pfeiffer, so villainous in Hairspray, leads a trio of selfish witch sisters. Robert De Niro captains a motley crew...... more »

DVD Release Date: September 1, 2001

Rated by critic:

Rated by users:

There's something about Venice that invites freaky behavior I suppose. Maybe it's the proximity to the water. Like New Orleans. Barbet Schroeder's The Comfort of Strangers makes excellent use of Venice's unique atmosphere and throws a little Walken into the...... more »

Cemetary Man

by Christopher Null on Mar 23 2006
DVD Release Date: June 13, 2006

Rated by critic:

Rated by users:

Michele Soavi is, unapologetically, a student of the Mario Bava school of splatter filmmaking. He's also taken electives from Sam Raimi, it seems. Cemetary Man is an Evil Dead redux, a blend of zombie gore, sex scenes, and tongue-in-cheek comedy....... more »

Separate Lies

Rated by critic:

Rated by users:

A film that would be perfectly at home on the BBC or PBS, Julian Fellowes' Separate Lies is a solid if somewhat stolid tale of romance, betrayal, and deception that's something akin to Gosford Park (which Fellowes' scripted) by way...... more »

Hey guys - ever wake up in the morning and forget what it's like to be a man? Do you forget how it feels when testosterone surges through your veins? Do you forget the pleasures of sleeping with women? Me...... more »

When Prince Charming (Rupert Everett) pulls off his helmet to reveal a hairnet in the first minute of Shrek 2, it's clear the sequel intends to match the wit and style of its predecessor. Fortunately it succeeds, finding new targets...... more »

Considering that I have not watched a Nickelodeon show since Double Dare, I didn't know what to expect from The Wild Thornberrys Movie, based on a popular cartoon from the network. Surprisingly, the film is a hilarious adventure and I...... more »

Unconditional Love

Rated by critic:

Rated by users:

Great googly moogly, what have these filmmakers and stars gotten themselves into with Unconditional Love? In a plot that I can only describe as inspired-by-peyote, Kathy Bates decides to head to rural Britain for the funeral of a murdered pop...... more »
