• Artificial Intelligence: A.I. directed by Steven Spielberg (2001)

  [7/10]

  "I appreciate all the interesting moral and philosophical questions Spielberg introduces in A.I., and the movie does manage to keep your interest -- espically visually -- for the almost three-hour running time."

  [7/10]

  "Although constructed almost entirely of cliches, City of Angels rallys its cliches synergistically to produce a pleasing, though predictable, story."

• Walk to Remember, A by Nicholas Sparks (1999)

  [5/10]

  "Some stories tug at your heartstrings. Others, like Nicholas Sparks's A Walk to Remember try so hard to tug at your heart that you can't help but grow annoyed at the attempt."

• Washington Square by Henry James (1880)

  [6/10]
