You Can Count on Me (2000) 95% EDIT “You Can Count on Me is that rare film that comes along and reminds its audience of the beauty and drama inherent in the lives of everyday folks.” – Flak Magazine Jun 9, 2018 Full Review X-Men (2000) 82% EDIT “X-Men certainly won't go down as the movie of the year, but it just may end up the smartest action film in quite some time.” – Flak Magazine Jun 9, 2018 Full Review The Woman Chaser (1999) 71% EDIT “Consistently funny and frequently hilarious, The Woman Chaser stands out because it mines its humor by deftly weaving early '60s cool with the pathos and neuroses of the late '90s.” – Flak Magazine Jun 9, 2018 Full Review The Virgin Suicides (1999) 80% EDIT “Sofia Coppola was blessed with the perfect ingredients... But somewhere, it all went wrong, and The Virgin Suicides ended up as an empty, beautifully scored, stunningly shot flick.” – Flak Magazine Jun 9, 2018 Full Review Two Family House (2000) 88% EDIT “This charming, well-balanced film comes out smelling sweetly. It's cute without being trite and sentimental yet largely believable.” – Flak Magazine Jun 8, 2018 Full Review State and Main (2000) 84% EDIT “With the exception of a couple of goofy, largely uninteresting subplots, there's little here we haven't already seen.” – Flak Magazine Jun 8, 2018 Full Review Sexy Beast (2000) 87% EDIT “[Jonathan] Glazer, defying his directorial inexperience, wisely backs off, letting Kingsley and the low-key Winstone ply their trade more than the whiz-bang gimmickry of the typical new-wave British crime flick would allow.” – Flak Magazine Jun 8, 2018 Full Review Pollock (2000) 79% EDIT “It's the sort of bell-curve narrative that's become all too common in Hollywood biopics. Nonetheless, Pollock holds together extremely well, namely due to strong performances by its two stars.” – Flak Magazine Jun 7, 2018 Full Review My Son the Fanatic (1998) 79% EDIT “Virtually every scene in this movie is packed with meaning and emotional tension.” – Flak Magazine Jun 5, 2018 Full Review The Mexican (2001) 54% EDIT “Unlike most movies that don't reach their potential, The Mexican comes close enough to make the movie half-entertaining.” – Flak Magazine Jun 5, 2018 Full Review Memento (2000) 93% EDIT “A story laid out like this naturally yields some fascinating cinematic opportunities, but director Christopher Nolan... never quite realizes the movie's potential, causing it to fall from possible favorite-of-all-time status to merely pretty good.” – Flak Magazine Jun 5, 2018 Full Review Love & Sex (2000) 48% EDIT “Overcomes flashbacky voiceover narration, a weak soundtrack and occasional sentimentality with a clever screenplay, snappy dialogue and sexual straight talk, not to mention a razor-sharp sense of comic timing.” – Flak Magazine Jun 5, 2018 Full Review The Hurricane (1999) 82% EDIT “[Denzel] Washington - himself clearly inspired - pulls us into Carter's gripping story.” – Flak Magazine Jun 4, 2018 Full Review Human Resources (1999) 97% EDIT “Ultimately, the film succeeds because of its intense realism, as well as the broad social questions it raises (and answers).” – Flak Magazine Jun 4, 2018 Full Review Ghost World (2001) 93% EDIT “Though Ghost World's characters and scenarios are based in stereotype, its direction is anything but conventional... Zwigoff demonstrates a stylish savvy way too refined for a first-time feature-film director.” – Flak Magazine Jun 4, 2018 Full Review George Washington (2000) 84% EDIT “A strange, wonderful, one-of-a-kind movie that firmly plants [David Gordon] Green at the head of the directors' Class of 2000. Watch him soar.” – Flak Magazine Jun 4, 2018 Full Review Dungeons & Dragons (2000) 9% EDIT “The only good thing about this movie was that it set a good blueprint for the Lord of the Rings movies in terms of how they portrayed dragons.” – Flak Magazine Jun 2, 2018 Full Review Cecil B. Demented (2000) 53% EDIT “The boredom that results from [John] Waters's failure to self-edit turns what could have been a hilarious film into something that's somewhat amusing.” – Flak Magazine May 31, 2018 Full Review Bounce (2000) 52% EDIT “You can't bury a story or script this hackneyed under any amount of money or talent.” – Flak Magazine May 30, 2018 Full Review Amélie (2001) 90% EDIT “Amélie is as likable a character as you'll find in movies.” – Flak Magazine May 29, 2018 Full Review
