Predator 2 (1990) 36% 2/4 EDIT “"Predator 2" is nonsense, but it does deliver the goods that action, horror, science-fiction and cop-movie fans have come to expect.” – Kansas City Star Oct 31, 2025 Full Review Night of the Living Dead (1990) 57% 1.5/4 EDIT “Savini emphasizes cheap thrills instead of letting a subtle, claustrophobic horror build. ” – Kansas City Star Sep 18, 2025 Full Review The Karate Kid Part III (1989) 18% 1.5/4 EDIT “As it is, it's just a rehash of things we've seen before by characters who've already said all they have to say. ” – Kansas City Star May 28, 2025 Full Review Love & Basketball (2000) 86% 2.5/4 EDIT “[Epps and Lathan] have expressive eyes and faces that sell their basketball and romantic ups and downs about as well as Prince Bythewood's extremely earnest script does.” – Kansas City Star Mar 9, 2022 Full Review Cool as Ice (1991) 3% 1/4 EDIT “Cool as Ice, a monument to vanity, plays like something rushed to the screen to squeeze a few more bucks out of Ice before his fame drips away for good. Even the most forgiving teen-ager will see through a numbingly obvious plot.” – Kansas City Star Aug 13, 2021 Full Review Strangers With Candy (2005) 51% 2.5/4 EDIT “We get Colbert, and we get Sedaris as Jerri Blank for just a little while longer. That's enough for us.” – Kansas City Star Jul 14, 2006 Full Review Herbie: Fully Loaded (2005) 40% 2/4 EDIT “While Fully Loaded doesn't have much for grown-ups who think characters need dimensions or a good story requires an unexpected turn or two, it offers a nice pit stop of nostalgic memories.” – Kansas City Star Jun 24, 2005 Full Review The Longest Yard (2005) 31% 2/4 EDIT “The Longest Yard plays like nothing less than Adam and the boys getting together in New Mexico and re-creating something they probably learned to love through steady repeats on basic cable.” – Kansas City Star May 27, 2005 Full Review Monster-in-Law (2005) 19% 2.5/4 EDIT “It lacks the meanness and vulgarity of much modern comedy (good) but fails to replace it with any meaningful insight or satire.” – Kansas City Star May 13, 2005 Full Review Fever Pitch (2005) 66% 2.5/4 EDIT “Sometimes hitters can get caught just looking at that curve fall in for a strike, and all they can do is wonder how they fell for something so light. Plenty of people will leave Fever Pitch with that feeling.” – Kansas City Star Apr 8, 2005 Full Review Son of the Mask (2005) 6% EDIT “Turns out to be a pretty standard modern comedy with pretty standard special effects and a simplistic message about fathers and sons.” – Kansas City Star Feb 18, 2005 Full Review Fat Albert (2004) 23% EDIT “While it's pleasant enough for all ages, it's too clean for today's kids, it's too sappy for jaded adults, and not yet nostalgic enough for those of us who grew up with the original.” – Kansas City Star Dec 24, 2004 Full Review Meet the Fockers (2004) 38% 2/4 EDIT “Amusing ... but not distinctive.” – Kansas City Star Dec 22, 2004 Full Review The Powerpuff Girls Movie (2002) 64% EDIT “A movie version that's as good as anything both kinds of fans [kids and adults] could have hoped for.” – Kansas City Star Jul 3, 2002 Full Review Bubble Boy (2001) 32% EDIT “Someone like Tom Green or Carrot Top probably could have done a better job of reacting to Jimmy's issues and done it without a darn bubble in their way.” – Kansas City Star Aug 24, 2001 Full Review American Pie 2 (2001) 51% EDIT “In this film, you just want something or someone to laugh at. On those counts, American Pie 2 is a rousing success.” – Kansas City Star Aug 10, 2001 Full Review Joe Dirt (2001) 9% EDIT “If you can get people to roar at a scene of someone being showered in, well, you know what ... why stress yourself giving the people anything more than you-know-what?” – Kansas City Star Apr 11, 2001 Full Review Michael Jordan: To the Max (2000) 65% EDIT “IMAX practically puts you on the court and magnifies everyone.” – Kansas City Star Feb 7, 2001 Full Review The 6th Day (2000) 40% EDIT “How seriously you take The 6th Day may determine whether you laugh with it, at it, or just get caught up in the action of another expensive he-man adventure.” – Kansas City Star Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Bait (2000) 26% EDIT “The overwhelming editing and some equally tiring action-movie conventions in the last reel make it just another film you may not mind seeing but certainly won't remember very long.” – Kansas City Star Jan 1, 2000 Full Review
