Welcome to Mooseport (2004)

Comedy Rated PG-13

Ray Romano plays another everyday schmo who’s nice enough but something of a wallflower – at least until a former U.S. president (Gene Hackman) runs against him for mayor. Comedy comfort food, this is never quite as funny as it should have been – its insistence on geniality holds it back – but the movie

Ghost Rider (2007)

Action/Adventure Rated PG-13

Among the hokiest of comic-book movies, Ghost Rider goes down in flames, but not in the way it means to. Nicolas Cage stars as motorcycle stunt rider Johnny Blaze, a bounty hunter for the devil. This basically means that at night, when in the presence of evil, he takes the form of a flaming skeleton

Black Sheep (2007)

Comedy Rated PG-13

“If you have the bad taste for this sort of thing, it’s rarely done better, even by Peter Jackson.

Blow (2001)

Drama Rated R

An epic sob story about a real-life drug dealer (Johnny Depp) who flooded the United States with cocaine in the ’70s and is now sitting in jail. Blow isn’t content to paint a conflicted portrait of an anti-hero, but instead verges on hero worship. It’s a misguided movie at best, a distasteful one at heart.

Cold Mountain (2003)

Drama Rated R

An unsuccessful prestige project based on Charles Frazier’s 1998 best-seller, this is a movie with pages sticking out of it. The story is good; the structural problems are insurmountable. Nicole Kidman and Jude Law cancel each other out as lovers separated by the Civil War, while Renee Zellweger brings some zest as a rifle-toting drifter.

Emperor’s New Groove, The (2000)

Family Rated G

There’s no rousing musical score, star-studded vocal cast or groundbreaking animation in this Disney fable about an emperor who has been turned into a llama. But aside from the subpar visuals, the movie does not suffer as a result. Without the weight of a blockbuster tag, The Emperor’s New Groove is freed from the Disney

Kingdom of Heaven (2005)

Action/Adventure Rated R

This may be the first hippie war film, a peace-espousing flower child that gleefully takes up arms. Set during the Crusades, it has as its hero (Orlando Bloom) the knight charged with defending Jerusalem and keeping the peace between Christians and Muslims. Fortunately for director Ridley Scott – whose Gladiator turned bursts of violence into

Narc (2002)

Drama Rated R

Narc gets most of its fire from a riveting Ray Liotta. As a hard-core narcotics officer hell-bent on avenging his former partner’s murder, he lumbers through the movie like a bear that everyone else on screen is afraid of rousing. He and Jason Patric, who plays an undercover cop, turn the movie into a tense

Return to Never Land (2002)

Family Rated G

Disney may seem like it’s cashing in on one of its brand names with this sequel to 1953’s Peter Pan, but Return to Never Land is lavished with more care and respect than you’d expect. The result is a fun, thoughtful extension of the fairy tale’s central themes – this time Wendy’s daughter takes center
