It’s rare that a movie can inspire genuine awe but Cameron has succeeded in another landmark technical achievement.

Tombstone
One of the finest Westerns to come along since the genre decided largely to pack up and ride into the sunset several decades ago.
Steel
Has the distinction of being one of those movies that’s so bad it actually has some solid entertainment value.
Armageddon
It’s easy to be sucked in by all the glossy, nostalgic images that flash across the screen like some sort of psychological experiment, but like most of the director’s other films, most is forgettable shortly thereafter.
The Princess and the Frog
Feeling like a collection of Disney Princess greatest hits with a Southern flair, this latest Disney animated feature may look gorgeous but it’s lacking in “magic.”
The Brothers Warner
Told from the insider’s perspective of Harry Warner’s granddaughter Cass Warner, comes a slightly Michael Moore-esque look at the establishment of the Warner empire in Hollywood.
Old Dogs
Despite showing some potential as commentary on ageism, the light-hearted comedy often flounders in the formulaic and a premise that is more complicated than it needed to be.
Kiki’s Delivery Service
An excellent alternative to much of the frenetic, princess-driven fare that seems to dominate the genre.
Ponyo
Beautiful and thoughtful, Miyazaki once again shows he’s a master of taking the magical and making it endearing.

Everybody’s Fine
A film with a few inspired moments – mostly towards the end – sprinkled in with a whole lot of awkward, even mean, portions. The result is a major disappointment.
