• Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys, The directed by Peter Care (2002)

  [7/10]

  "The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys tells a touching story that really captures the essence of growing up as a teenage boy in a staunch Catholic family, and in spite of all the anachronisms, I found the movie completely engaging."

• Dreamgirls directed by Bill Condon (2006)

  [7/10]

  "Dreamgirls provides a fun, musical and visual experience without a whole lot of character depth. Tap your toe, enjoy the fun, but don't look too deeply into the storyline."

• Lord of War directed by Andrew Niccol (2006)

  [5/10]

  "From the Lord of War trailers, I expected an action movie, but writer/director Andrew Niccol has infused his film with political messages that unfortunately interfere with my enjoyment of the film."

• Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk (1999)

  [6/10]

  "I found this the most enjoyable of the Palahniuk novels I have read. The plot keeps taking unexpected turns, and Palahniuk avoids overusing his tendency to repeat key phrases throughout the book."

  Average score: 6.25
