TOP

PAN'S LABYRINTH
Release: Jan 07 - Review: 24 Sep 09

The only fairytale I can think of more gruesome is the King James Bible.
TOP

TOP
THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST
Release: Aug 04 - Review: 7 Apr 09


The Bashin' of The Christ.

Yeah, this is what all those other Jesus movies have been missing - the TORTURE. If you’re gonna bash Jesus, you might as well bash him right.
TOP
PATHS OF GLORY
Release: Oct 57 - Review: 20 Jun 09

Paths of Gory.

... an outraged, frustrated scream against the duplicity, mendacity, idiocy, inhumaneness and ingloriousness of war.
TOP
THE PEACEMAKER
Release: Sep 97 - Review: 18 Dec 05

The Cheesemaker.

Meanwhile, something of world-shaking import is happening - but in Nuclear Threat movies I can never quite scare up the interest to find out what.
TOP
PEARL HARBOR
Release: May 01 - Review: 21 Jun 09

Pearl Before Swine.

PEARL HARBOR digs deep below the surface of the gasoline embargoes and jingoistic fomenting and reveals exactly what this WWII conflict was all about - the love triangle between three young American Models.
TOP
PEOPLE I KNOW
Release: Apr 03 - Review: 22 Jul 06

Who You Don't Know Could Kill You.

Something happens after the first hour of PEOPLE I KNOW - it gets interesting.
TOP
A PERFECT GETAWAY
Release: Aug 09 - Review: 2 Feb 10

Hunted Honeymoon.

...a tension-soaked thriller that ratchets suspense not unlike a junior Hitchcock or Tarantino.
TOP
THE PERFECT SCORE
Release: Jan 04 - Review: 14 Aug 05


Plan Teen From Outer Space
.
It's the Focus Group ruling that No Teen Model Shall Be Seen Cheating, so everyone with a hot butt comes to some inane reconciliation with their inadequacies...
TOP
A PERFECT WORLD
Release: Nov 93 - Review: 24 Jul 06

A Perfect Vision of an Imperfect World.

Nature versus nurture. Fathers versus sons. Justice versus The Law. T-bones versus tater tots.
TOP
PHENOMENON
Release: Jul 96 - Review: 5 Jan 07

Battlefield Iowa.

With his newfound powers, Travolta still can't find an inane excuse to dance in this film...
TOP
PI
Release: Jul 98 - Review: 12 Oct 08

Uneasy as Pi.

There is something genius lurking its way to the surface in Darren Aronofsky's PI - but it gets sidetracked with hallucinatory drugs.
TOP
PINEAPPLE EXPRESS
Release: Aug 08 - Review: 26 Jul 09

The Fast Track to Brotherly J.

Is PINEAPPLE EXPRESS just another "bromance": two immature boy-stoners who can't forge a "real" relationship with a female, so run around holding hands, on the lam from drug dealers? Well, the "bromosexual" tag (although hilarious) doesn't do this film justice...
TOP
PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: CURSE OF THE BLACK PEARL
Release: Jul 03 - Review: 16 Dec 09

Shiver me fey timbers.

...as entertaining as it is ambitious, as rollicking as it is ridiculous, as boyish-action-movie as it is gender-bendingly-ambiguous.
TOP
PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MAN'S CHEST
Release: Jun 06 - Review: 17 Jul 06

Captain Jack will get you high tonight...

... a hedonistic bombast of swashbuckling high-sea hijinks, sun-seared tropical environs, intricately-designed ocean-creature monsters and eyeliner enough to embarrass a prostitute.
TOP
PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD'S END
Release: May 07 - Review: 16 Jun 07

Jack-ing the Sparrow.

...the rascally diversion of the PIRATES series has turned into a MUST-EARN overblown bombast of money-raking white noise consumerism.
TOP
PLANET OF THE APES 2001
Release: Jul 01 - Review: Aug 01

Marky Mark's PLANET OF THE APES.

This truly IS the planet of the apes. “Taking it back” is as ludicrous as a bunch of apes landing on earth in 2001 and causing trouble with their overacting and advanced technology and hairy anuses.
TOP
PLAY MISTY FOR ME
Release: Nov 71 - Review: 25 Aug 06

A Legend's Misty Origin.

In 1971, at 41, Clint Eastwood confidently flaunts his directing debut with PLAY MISTY FOR ME - at an age when most actors these days are contemplating which reality show to make asses of themselves on.
TOP

POINT BREAK
Release: Jul 91 - Review: 15 Sep 09

Keanu and Patrick's Excellent Adventure.

POINT BREAK does actually skim along like a greased board on Hawaiian neckbreakers, never letting us out of its action grip, or its bro-tastic overacting and über-cheese one-liners.
TOP

THE POKER CLUB
Release: Oct 08 - Review: 19 Jul 09

Poker Haunt Us.

...the most fun you can have watching a poker movie without actually watching a poker movie.
TOP
THE PRESTIGE
Release: Oct 06 - Review: 6 Dec 06

Nolan's Real Magic.

THE PRESTIGE is an egomaniac that criss-crosses veins of intrigue and misdirection, pumping you breathless with half-lies and false truths until its powerful climax.
TOP
PRESTO
Release: Jul 08 - Review: 22 Jul 08

Funny Hunger.

A magician, his magic top hat and his desperately cute and hungry rabbit.

TOP
THE PROPOSAL
Release: Jun 09 - Review: 7 Nov 09

I Do. Not.

Predictable? Check. Funny? Check. Cute little white dog named Kevin? Check. So we know what to expect from this crap going in.
TOP
THE PROPOSITION
Release: Feb 06 - Review: 21 Feb 09

Brutal, Bloody, Beautiful.

THE PROPOSITION is filth and dust and blood, punishing Outback heat bleeding off the screen; a land so untamed it spawns lawmen as sociopathic as the lawbreakers they pursue.
TOP
THE PURSUIT OF HAPPYNESS
Release: Dec 06 - Review: 4 Jan 07

Dispiritying, Disheartenying, Distressying.

...though its intent is to be a "feel-good" movie, it goes awry in its execution, paying such sadistic detail to every mishap, misfortune and misstep of its hero that it loses all semblance of entertainment.
