2002 | ||||||
| LOTR: The Two Towers Same exact feelings as the first one, maybe just a tad better. | | | | | | |
| Maid In Manhattan Same formula as Pretty Woman. Cute. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Die Another Day A jolly good time, despite a weak opening sequence. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Femme Fatale A little bit of thrill. A little bit of erotism. A little bit of this. A little bit of that. Just a little bit. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Abandon No surprises and often slow, yet we kinda enjoyed it. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| The Transporter A gem in the action genre. Some of the best (and funniest) fight scenes I've seen in a very long time. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Sweet Home Alabama Predictable and a little slow at times. Yet enjoyable and sweet. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever Quite different from what the trailers led to believe. We liked it. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Signs Good signs. Bad aliens. M. Night Shyamalan rules. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Reign of Fire Lit my fire. Quite entertaining. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Men In Black II Major case of déjà vu, but still entertaining. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Minority Report By far the best Spielberg movie I've ever seen. A masterpiece in the futuristic thriller genre. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Scooby Doo Scooby don't, unless you're under 10 years old. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| The Bourne Identity Well paced and very entertaining. A solid blend of suspense and action. Demon turns out to be pretty good Jason Bourne. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Sum Of All Fears Well paced and very entertaining. A solid blend of suspense and action. Affleck turns out to be pretty good as young Jack Ryan. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clowns. The piecemeal plot wasn't helped by the bad acting. Enough said. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Spider-Man Spidey fans will enjoy this movie as it follows the comic book story to the letter. Quite entertaining overall, but it was definitely no X-Men. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| The Scorpion King Action galore, no surprises but well worth the ride, which is quite impressive considering the relatively low budget. The Rock has potential. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Panic Room The best thriller I've seen in a long, long time. This is what happens when you combine a good story with some great actors and one hell of a director. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Collateral Damage Arnie's back in the saddle. Lots of action and a clever storyline. What else can you ask for? | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
2001 | ||||||
| The Lords Of The Rings I just wasn't enticed by the movie. The special effects were good, but weren't anything I hadn't seen before. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Spy Game Just the right blend of action and suspense. Redford has played similar characters before, but he's really good at it. Pitt held his own. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| The One Jet Li showing is range in a dual role, as both the hero and villain. As usual, the futuristic fight scenes were superbly executed. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| American Pie 2 A very worthy sequel which doesn't repeat any of the first installment's gags and still manages to be hilarious at times. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Planet Of The Apes Extremely well-paced fun, and thankfully, none of the perpetual cheesy moral dilemmas that made the original such a bore. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| The Score Even good acting could not help a predictable storyline coupled with a few lame action scenes. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Kiss Of The Dragon Jet Li reprises the same type of role as in Romeo Must Die. Less humor, more action. Works for me. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Swordfish Travolta is quite a likable bad guy. Some great (and unexpected) action sequences made for a pretty good ride. Halle Berry pointlessly flashes early on but was, reportedly, well compensated for her valiant showing. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| The Mummy Returns I think I liked it better than the first one. Funnier and much more sustained. The Rock's role is nothing more than what is shown in the trailers. I wouldn't change career quite yet, Rocky. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Exit Wounds Nobody kicks ass like Seagal does. DMX delivers a pretty good performance too. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Get Over It Simply forgot to bring it on. | | | | | | |
| | ||||||
| Head Over Heels No surprises, just cute and funny. | | | | | | |
