A ’Date Movie’ worth standing up

'Date Movie' is the first movie in the film-parody genre that is so terrible it is not worth watching. The film spends most of its time repeating actual lines and scenes from other films, rather than parodying a certain genre.

Film puts the dumb in ’Freedom’

Joe Roth has graced the world with his directing skills through many cinematic gifts, including 'Daddy Day Care' and 'Revenge of the Nerds II.' He brings yet another masterpiece to the table with 'Freedomland,' a film that is the very embodiment of subtlety and rationality. Actually, this only holds true if your definition of subtlety involves viewers being repeatedly hit in the face with the point of a movie, and if your definition of rationality involves overstating stereotypes played upon by sensationalist journalists.
