 'Ice Age 3' Movie Review (C)Ice Age 3 profile US release date: July 1, 2009 MPAA: NR Box Office: $13,791,157 | Craig Younkin | June 29, 2009 |
| We’re a long way from the visual feast and energetic fun of Up. I’m sure the kids won’t mind though. This exists for them. | ||
| 'My Sister's Keeper' Movie Review (B+) | Craig Younkin | June 26, 2009 |
| I’m not saying this movie isn’t a cheap excuse to make you cry, but as far as cheap excuses go, this one is richly made. | ||
| 'Transformers 2' Movie Review (B) | Craig Younkin | June 23, 2009 |
| Not without its flaws, but the good outweighs the bad and this is right behind Star Trek as the blockbuster of the summer. | ||
| 'Away We Go' Movie Review (B+) | Craig Younkin | June 21, 2009 |
| There is a point where the interspersing of comedy and drama starts to get old but luckily a third act of genuine lessons and happy mediums lead to some of the movie's best scenes. | ||
| 'The Hurt Locker' Movie Review (C+) | Craig Younkin | June 21, 2009 |
| The movie clocks in at over two hours and staying with it is not the easiest thing to do. | ||
| 'Year One' Movie Review (D-) | Craig Younkin | June 18, 2009 |
| A complete train-wreck that falls back on everything that’s wrong with American comedy. It settles for lowest common denominator and aims lower. | ||
| 'The Proposal' Movie Review (D) | Craig Younkin | June 16, 2009 |
| For anyone thinking we’d see an end to insufferable movies that make up the romantic comedy genre I present The Proposal, two hours of stupid fluff performed without the slightest care toward making a watchable movie. | ||
| 'Taking...Pelham 123' Movie Review (B-) | Craig Younkin | June 9, 2009 |
| Watching them go one on one with each other is the film’s main bright spot. Though this remake proves to be a little less than the sum of its parts. | ||
| 'The Hangover' Movie Review (B) | Craig Younkin | June 4, 2009 |
| A comic adventure well worth taking. | ||
| 'Land of the Lost' Movie Review (D+) | Craig Younkin | June 3, 2009 |
| Land of the Lost is just lost, misguided in every way. It deserves to be shunned and left to be the summer’s first big box-office bomb. | ||
| 'Tyson' Movie Review (A) | Craig Younkin | May 30, 2009 |
| Tyson has it all. A confessional film that showcases just how crazy, funny, spiritual, fun, pained, and fascinating the boxer is as a man. | ||
| 'Easy Virtue' Movie Review (B) | Craig Younkin | May 30, 2009 |
| An old fashioned comedy that works, one of the funniest I’ve seen all year long. | ||
| 'Drag Me to Hell' Movie Review (C) | Craig Younkin | May 29, 2009 |
| What we're watching is just ridiculous. This is campy horror, with more of an emphasis on cornball than on actual scares. | ||
| 'Up' Movie Review (B+) | Craig Younkin | May 29, 2009 |
| One of the year's rare treasures, a movie that flies in every way possible and from Pixar, you shouldn't expect anything less. | ||
| 'Sunshine Cleaning' Movie Review (B) | Craig Younkin | April 1, 2009 |
| It's one of the better movies this year, but it could have benefited from a tighter script. | ||
| 'Fast and Furious' Movie Review (B-) | Craig Younkin | April 1, 2009 |
| Deserves credit for doing the key things well. If you're expecting much from anything other than the cars then it’s a disappointment. | ||
| 'Watchmen' Movie Review (C) | Craig Younkin | March 4, 2009 |
| This movie was just lost on me. I have no idea where it was trying to go or what any of it means and to me it just looks like a nice-looking jumble of different things that just didn’t work. | ||
| 'Confessions...Shopaholic' Movie Review (B) | Craig Younkin | February 13, 2009 |
| Surprisingly tolerable and likable, a relief to guys who look at that title and shudder at the fact that they're probably going to be spending Valentine's Day with their girlfriends watching it. | ||
| 'The International' Movie Review (C+) | Craig Younkin | February 11, 2009 |
| Instead of focusing on how the bank creates slaves-to-debt and how the whole process works, the movie just vaguely and complicatedly brushes over those issues in favor of lazy, generic plotting. | ||
| 'Taken' Movie Review (B) | Craig Younkin | January 27, 2009 |
| Taken works in the same vain as Out for Justice and is, for the most part, a fairly thrilling revenge flick. | ||
| 'Inkheart' Movie Review (B) | Craig Younkin | January 21, 2009 |
| Inkheart is the first in a trilogy of books and hopefully Hollywood goes back into this well again. | ||
| 'Notorious B.I.G.' Movie Review (B) | Craig Younkin | January 20, 2009 |
| It’s not a great movie, but to start the year off, it’s a pretty good one. The performances are terrific and the world it portrays not only looks good on film but also allows for a strong message. | ||
| 'Doubt' Movie Review (B+) | Craig Younkin | January 3, 2009 |
| It offers questions about the concepts of morality and decency and it’s good to know that nothing has been lost in the transfer from stage to screen. | ||
| 'The Wrestler' Movie Review (B) | Craig Younkin | December 31, 2008 |
| It’s an idea that Rourke invests his full body and soul in, carrying the pain and grief of a man whose glory days have passed him by. The movie doesn’t always pin it down but Rourke does. | ||
 Most Popular Article'Gran Torino' Movie Review (B) Gran Torino profile US release date: December 12, 2008 MPAA: R Box Office: $148,085,755 | Craig Younkin | December 23, 2008 |
| Gran Torino could have been a better Oscar worthy flick but as it is, it’s another solid Eastwood movie nonetheless. | ||
| 'Seven Pounds' Movie Review (B-) | Craig Younkin | December 23, 2008 |
| Offers up a great role for him but the movie, despite being fascinating for its first hour, gets frustratingly less worthy of its high caliber plot and dissolves into heavy-handed sentimentality. | ||
| 'Yes Man' Movie Review (D+) | Craig Younkin | December 23, 2008 |
| Yes Man marks his career-low, a movie so awe-inspiringly bad at times that I just wanted to walk out and try to remember the good times with Carrey that now seem so far removed. | ||
| 'Frost/Nixon' Movie Review (A-) | Craig Younkin | December 17, 2008 |
| Ron Howard is a terrific judge and I can’t think of two actors who could have done a more masterful job of honing in on their characters legacies. | ||
| 'Day Earth Stood Still' Movie Review (C-) | Craig Younkin | December 14, 2008 |
| For all its expensive-looking attributes, the movie in general is a big, dull, drag. | ||
| 'Milk' Movie Review (B) | Craig Younkin | December 8, 2008 |
| It’s Penn and Van Sant's show and they make a movie that, while not great, is nonetheless entertaining and interesting. | ||
