• Undercover Brother: As Tired as the Era It Spoofs

• Thrilling Enough Sends a Mixed Moral Message
  I hope this movie causes women in abusive relationships to stand up for themselves and/or their children by getting out or getting help. But the way Lopez does it, and the way it should be done,...

• Star Wars: Episode II: On the Lighter Side
  Although overly plotted and lacking genuine humor, the latest episode in the Star Wars series is beautiful to look at and, at times, thrilling. But it's a mixed bag overall.

  The characters and dialogue are over done; Deuces Wild feels like West Side Story without the music.

  Watching a young Allen wring his hands and go on and on about nothing used to be entertaining and funny, but now he just looks tired, annoyed and, quite honestly, a little confused.

• Spider-Man: Strong Start for Summer Movies
  Spider-Man is a masterpiece that appeals to the kid in all of us. Credit has to be given to Director Sam Raimi for creating characters who aren't overly cartoonish or cheesy.
