The School of Rock
Really Great 66 Points 2003

Cute kids turn into real rockers under Jack Black’s masterful tutelage in this classic movie about classic rock. Still funny the third time through, School of Rock charms, tickles and – most importantly – rocks.

In the classic words of The School of Rock’s nutty professor – "It’s a toast to…

Beyond the Sea
Good 83 Points 2004

The Peter Principle personified: Kevin Spacey reached his level of incompetence by writing, directing and starring in Beyond the Sea, a surreal biopic of Bobby Darin. The starring part was mostly fine.

The writing and directing parts, not so much.

Darin’s terrific songs make the movie an…

Ray
Very Good 17 Points 2004

I really enjoyed Jaime Foxx’s version of the great Ray Charles. The movie was as entertaining as a biopic gets. Jaime’s acting great – he seemed to become Ray himself. I simply forgot that I was watching an actor and not the legend. The movie surrounds itself with Ray’s wonderful music and give…

Walk The Line
Really Great 77 Points 2005

Walk The Line is a great music biopic, enjoyable whether you’re a country music fan or not, or care a whit about Johnny Cash & June Carter. After watching the movie, you’ll know why they are held in such high esteem and cared about as people.

Happy Endings
OK 66 Points 2005

Happy Endings drew me in while channel surfing, and then turned me into an emotional captive. “Not a very good movie” I’d think, but then another emotional car-wreck would happen and I’d get transfixed anew. Was there a happy ending in the end? Sadly not. Satisfying dramatic payoff? Nope, not t…

Dreamgirls
Very Good 17 Points 2006

Beyonce, Jaimie Foxx, Eddie Murphy, Danny Glover, Jennifer Hudson – need I add more? There were more. A terrific cast did a great job of giving us a glimpse into the life of soul-sisters in the 60’s. It was a little weird seeing Eddie Murphy singing like James Brown, but the unexpected musical …
