Review: Criminal

Criminal’s absence of style, the lack of relish the filmmakers take in the material’s inherent ludicrousness, is a failure of conviction.

Review: Max Payne

The film’s meticulously composed cinematography proves almost as inert as its star’s grimacing tough-guy routine.

Review: Mr. 3000

It’s a team sport, but the story belongs to the individual, which gives Mr. 3000 its meta-celebrity subtext.
