  • Daredevil - Director's Cut (2003)
    Review preview for Daredevil - Director's Cut

    Anonymously directed, mechanical and unsurprising and is aimed at the indiscriminate lowest common denominator.

    Gator MacReady · 2.5 out of 5
    A longer version, with additional sub plots, to the blind superhero movie.
  • Deadly Impact (2009)

  • The Matrix (1999)
    Review preview for The Matrix

    Visually it is astonishing, not only because of its effects and techno trickery, but cinematically the Wachowskis are so audacious.

    Innocent man goes on the run in sequel to The Fugitive.
  • Wedding Daze (2006)
    Review preview for Wedding Daze

    The movie is so rotten, so lazy and so ineffective - it can only lower the IQ, or raise the critical barrier for anyone who sees it.
