PEARL HARBOR
Release: May 01 - Review: 21 Jun 09

| | 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...

PERFECT WORLD
Release: Nov 93 - Review: 24 Jul 06 
A Perfect Vision
of an Imperfect World.
Nature versus nurture.

PHILADELPHIA
Release:
Dec 93 - Review: 29 Apr 10 
Lawyers cutting back door deals.
This wasn't a gay character to laugh at, this was a gay character to empathize with, as it is driven home that "gays are human too" with Beckett's family, friends, his intelligence, work ethic, musical tastes and big gay loverboy...

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.

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...

PINK FLOYD: THE WALL
Release: Aug 82 - Review: 18 Apr 10 
"Banging your heart against some mad bugger's wall..."
PINK FLOYD: THE WALL is the movie of the album that hit us right between the teens, embedded in the darkest crouch of our gargoyle brains.

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.

 | 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

 | 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

PLANET 51
Release: Nov 09 - Review: 21 Mar 10 
He who sips from many cups, drinks from none.
...glop of as many nudge-nudge wink-wink cultural references as cartoonly possible in an uninvolving 91-minute chase movie.

| | 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.

on.

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.

PRESTIGE

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.

Small time crooks painted larger than the criminals in any given corporation.
An insipid telling of the fast life and crooked times of America's first Public Enemy Number 1, John Dillinger.

PURPLE RAIN
Release: Jul 84 - Review: 9 Mar 10 
Hendrix's Purple Phoenix Writ Large.
PURPLE RAIN has become a bemusing dichotomy - a dull, clichéd, formulaic storyline sprinkled liberally with the most innovative pop songs of its time.

 | 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.
