T-METER
/
2/5
 
Derivative of both The Terminator and the Bourne Identity, this second-rate, lifeless actioner could've used some serious dosages of adrenaline. -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Aug 25, 2008
 
Cyborg Soldier (2008)n/a
/
0/5
 
"Jaw-droppingly awful in just about every department, with the has-been Seagal proving he sucks as a screenwriter, too." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Jul 31, 2008
 
Kill Switch ()n/a
/
1/5
 
"About as frightening as a fly on your water glass." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Jul 28, 2008
 
Room 6 (2006)33%
/
2/5
 
"Appallingly derivative and sloppily executed." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Jul 26, 2008
 
Silent Rage (1982)n/a
/
1.5/5
 
"Redundant and tepid, with only a couple of notable facets." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Jul 18, 2008
 
The New Kids (1985)n/a
/
0/5
 
One of the worst so-called comedies ever made, its two leads are charmless, the story and dialogue sub-mental, and the humor of mostly toilet gags asinine to the nth degree. -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Jul 16, 2008
 
The Sweep (2008)n/a
/
2/5
 
"Despite stellar acting from Dorff and Kilmer, this is a rather superficial and unsurprising entry in its subgenre. " -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Jul 16, 2008
 
Felon (2008)59%
/
3.5/5
 
"While it's not up to the original's standards, it's lively and doesn't lay down on the job." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Jul 2, 2008
 
War Games: The Dead Code (2008)n/a
/
1.5/5
 
"So stale, contrived, and impersonal that it's surprising it managed to stick to the celluloide." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Jun 25, 2008
 
Finding Amanda (2008)38%
/
2/5
 
"A pretty lame cinematic endeavor that never for a second gets creative on us." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Jun 8, 2008
 
Kung Fu Panda (2008)88%
/
4/5
 
"All in all, Verhoeven's best film by far. Colorful, exciting, and a whole lot of fun." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted May 17, 2008
 
Starship Troopers (1997)62%
/
3.5/5
 
"Starts off terrifically but eventually loses steam and narrative drive. But it's still praiseworthy, and Pullman's miraculous performance should be put in a time capsule." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Apr 1, 2008
 
Zero Effect (1998)68%
/
4.5/5
 
"Colorful, exciting, and pumping with adrenaline, it's aided immensely by Cimino's bravura direction." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Apr 1, 2008
 
Year of the Dragon (1985)60%
/
4/5
 
"Friedkin's best since French Connection, even if its last third is extremely problematic." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Apr 1, 2008
 
To Live and Die in L.A. (1985)86%
/
4/5
 
"Alongside Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Say Anything as the best of the '80s teen comedies." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Apr 1, 2008
 
The Sure Thing (1985)89%
/
4/5
 
"The Rock proves himself a 24-karat superstar in the best film of this type since Romancing the Stone." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Apr 1, 2008
 
The Rundown (2003)71%
/
4/5
 
"It's somewhat overstuffed and limply directed; still, it's uncommonly textured and acted with flourish." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Apr 1, 2008
 
The Pope of Greenwich Village (1984)89%
/
4/5
 
"A colorful and entertaining cop thriller, with actor Gere and director Pearce working in excellent form." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Apr 1, 2008
 
No Mercy (1986)15%
/
4.5/5
 
"One of 2002's very best films. Creepy, atmospheric, thrilling -- a small masterpiece in its own right." -- eFilmCritic.com

The Mothman Prophecies (2002)52%
/

The Last Waltz (1978)97%
/
4/5
 
"The best submarine adventure ever made. Ford gives a career-best, galvanizing performance." -- eFilmCritic.com

K-19: The Widowmaker (2002)60%
/
4/5
 
"A killer serial-killer thriller! Plenty of twists and turns with grade-A casting." -- eFilmCritic.com

Just Cause (1995)23%
/
4/5
 
"The best film of the Holocaust ever made -- and, yes, that means it's better than the overpraised Schindler's List." -- eFilmCritic.com
Posted Apr 1, 2008
 
The Grey Zone (2002)68%
/
4.5/5
 
"The best football comedy ever made, with Williams and Russell simply superb and Shelton's screenplay a gold mine." -- eFilmCritic.com
