• Cheaper by the Dozen 2 directed by Adam Shankman (2005)

  [5/10]

  "All of the twenty child actors seem to have good acting abilities, but with so many children in the cast the kids get about as much screen time as a cameo role in this movie dominated by Martin and Levy."

• Lori, I Love You, But . . . by Gary Davis (1993)

  [2/10]

  "One could tell this story in any number of modes. Davis chose comedy. In fact, all of his characters seem to be sharpening their wit for a comedy club audition."

• Loverboy directed by Kevin Bacon (2006)

  [5/10]

  "I'm not sure what message director Kevin Bacon wanted me to take away from his film. As a moral tale, Loverboy shows that both neglect and over-protectiveness create dysfunctional relationships. We don't really see any contrasting non-dysfunctional relationships, so we don't have a counter-example to know what Bacon thinks a good relationship looks like."

• Rosemary's Baby directed by Roman Polanski (1968)

  [8/10]

  "Rosemary's Baby creates a very creepy film that builds to a frenetic pitch toward the end through a clever arrangement of finding evil in everyday events such as dinners with the neighbors, conversations in the laundry room, and doctor's visits."
