Snowpiercer
Pretty Bad 83 Points 2013

Ridiculous, cliche ridden and gleefully cruel is a hell of a trifecta, and yet Snowpiercer nails all three. In fairness, I clicked STOP after 15 minutes, seriously sickened and sadly stupefied, only the second time out of thousands of movies watched that I’ve not stuck it out till the end.1 B…

The Road
Very Good 92 Points 2009

Think of this de facto zombie movie as No Country for Little Boys: a surreally grim milieu through which a dauntless Father must shepherd his pure-hearted Son. Such a nihilistic extravaganza creates ample opportunities for life lessons of the most extreme sort. The result is gripping, though …

Zombieland
Great 122 Points 2009

Zombie movies aren’t my thing – but comedies are – and this zombie comedy rocks. Amply LOL and with relatively few clunkers, it’s consistently if not convulsively funny. Gross too, but the whole zombie shtick – what with the blood vomit and cannibalism – is so over-the-top as to be funny after …
