 'Transsiberian' Movie Review (B-)Transsiberian profile US release date: July 18, 2008 MPAA: R Box Office: $2,203,641 | Scott Sycamore | July 28, 2008 |
| This is a fun little indie thriller. Director Brad Anderson didn't wow me, but he added another decent one to his film canon. | ||
| 'Indiana Jones 4' Movie Review (B) | Scott Sycamore | May 23, 2008 |
| It's damn silly and averagely-scripted, but still it's fun! I think this might be the best climactic artifact scene in any Indy movie. The scope and fury of it is bombastic. | ||
| 'Run, Fat Boy, Run' Movie Review (C+) | Scott Sycamore | March 27, 2008 |
| Instead of taking an adventurous and entertaining route, it sticks to formula that an infant wouldn't drink out of its bottle. | ||
| '88 Minutes' Movie Review (C+) | Scott Sycamore | March 24, 2008 |
| If you eat up crime-type stories, you might find it a halfway-okay way to pass the time. | ||
| 'American Gangster' Movie Review (C+) | Scott Sycamore | November 1, 2007 |
| Everything is so cliché and by-the-numbers. | ||
| 'Death Proof' Movie Review (B) | Scott Sycamore | June 30, 2007 |
| A man who knows how to juxtapose and effortlessly mix genres all in a single moment stands tall in my book. | ||
| 'Spider-Man 3' Movie Review (C+) | Scott Sycamore | May 5, 2007 |
| There's no question about it: this is a flawed-as-hell movie. When something gets this over-stuffed and over-budgeted, it almost can't help but suffer from the mass-appeal Hollywood stench. | ||
| 'V for Vendetta' Movie Review (B) | Scott Sycamore | March 19, 2006 |
| We have a true cinematic Vendetta...The film has myriad flaws of course, but they are not egregious enough to capsize a full sense of enjoyment. Chow down for England. | ||
| 'Syriana' Movie Review (C+) | Scott Sycamore | November 25, 2005 |
| Syriana plays as a very static and talky "thriller" that never really succeeds as a piece of entertainment. | ||
| 'Get Rich or Die Tryin'' Movie Review (C+) | Scott Sycamore | November 15, 2005 |
| He flashes his big smile and can seem almost sweet at times, but we know that his moral compass doesn't exactly point in the right direction. And this might be the main problem: he's just too violent to really gain sympathy. | ||
| 'Zathura' Movie Review (C-) | Scott Sycamore | November 9, 2005 |
| I would expect that anybody without a very childish sensibility will be quite disappointed by this offering. | ||
| 'Saw 2' Movie Review (C+) | Scott Sycamore | October 28, 2005 |
| It's all mind-numbing savagery without real nuance or subtlety. | ||
| 'Walk the Line' Movie Review (C) | Scott Sycamore | October 15, 2005 |
| If you're going to film the tale of a remarkable life, make sure it's a remarkable movie. Walk the Line is not. | ||
 Most Popular Article'Serenity' Movie Review (D+) Serenity profile US release date: September 30, 2005 MPAA: PG-13 Box Office: $25,335,935 | Scott Sycamore | October 3, 2005 |
| All you regular moviegoers out there should be warned: this is not the exciting experience that you may think or hope it?s going to be. | ||
| 'Flightplan' Movie Review (B) | Scott Sycamore | September 26, 2005 |
| Imagine my delight when I found myself absorbed in this flick despite knowing quite a bit about it beforehand. | ||
| 'Cry Wolf' Movie Review (C) | Scott Sycamore | September 22, 2005 |
| We never feel any tension or fright; we are simply watching the people go through the motions of a silly story. | ||
| 'Dick and Jane' Movie Review (D+) | Scott Sycamore | September 21, 2005 |
| A shamefully forgettable and infuriatingly unfunny hack-job. | ||
| 'Lord of War' Movie Review (B) | Scott Sycamore | September 20, 2005 |
| {Andrew Niccol} has crafted a keen slice of entertainment with a relevant message. | ||
| 'The Man' Movie Review (D+) | Scott Sycamore | September 16, 2005 |
| It's so flat, so uninspired, and so off-key that it actually becomes thought provoking. | ||
| 'Exorcism of Emily...' Movie Review (C) | Scott Sycamore | September 13, 2005 |
| This movie is vanilla blandness right down to the bone. | ||
| 'Transporter 2' Movie Review (C) | Scott Sycamore | September 10, 2005 |
| This movie is just too ridiculous for its own good. | ||
| 'Broken Flowers' Movie Review (B-) | Scott Sycamore | September 8, 2005 |
| The overall vibe that it's going for is pulled off with aplomb. | ||
| 'Constant Gardener' Movie Review (C) | Scott Sycamore | September 5, 2005 |
| Given its pedigree, this has got to be one of the more disappointing films of the year. | ||
| 'The Cave' Movie Review (C-) | Scott Sycamore | September 3, 2005 |
| The Cave delivers exactly what it promises in the trailers: a loud, ugly, and derivative experience. | ||
| 'The Brothers Grimm' Movie Review (C-) | Scott Sycamore | August 30, 2005 |
| The whole movie just careens from one scene to another with no sense of coherence or transition. | ||
| 'Red Eye' Movie Review (C+) | Scott Sycamore | August 28, 2005 |
| A conventional thriller with good elements that are outweighed by the roteness of the plot. | ||
| 'Deuce Bigalow 2' Movie Review (B) | Scott Sycamore | August 26, 2005 |
| The gags are so dumb, vulgar, and outrageous that it's almost like an instinctual reaction to laugh at them. | ||
| 'The Skeleton Key' Movie Review (C+) | Scott Sycamore | August 19, 2005 |
| It gets the setting and tone right, but the frights are a whole different matter. | ||
| 'Four Brothers' Movie Review (C) | Scott Sycamore | August 17, 2005 |
| This movie builds up and then never reaches the level of excitement that it thinks it does. | ||
| 'Sky High' Movie Review (B-) | Scott Sycamore | August 11, 2005 |
| Many will write it off as stupid and childish, but I saw it for exactly what it was and had a pretty good time as a result. | ||
