Hofheimer, Charlie

• Music of the Heart (1999)

  [4/10]

  "Pamela Grey created an excellent script that demonstrates Roberta's personality and her caring for her students, and Wes Craven (Scream, A Nightmare on Elm Street) demonstrates that he can create emotions other than terror. Unfortunately, Meryl Streep never seemed comfortable in her role and always looked stiff and unnatural -- especially when playing the violin."

• Village, The (2004)

  [5/10]

  "Shyamalan has assembled a stellar cast, and the actors do their best with the script's questionable motivation and silly dialogue."

  Average score: 4.50
