Gerard Butler
Reign of Fire (2002)
Lara Croft — Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life (2003)
Timeline (2003)
The Phantom of the Opera (2004)
Roars to life in its least intimate passages...If not for his blind spot for his "angel in hell" Phantom, Schumacher would do Webber's popular entertainment justice.
Dear Frankie (2005)
Dear Frankie
isn't a good film, but it is a nice little movie...[about] what can happen when people become the conscious artists of their own lives.
300 (2007)
Primally,
300
has a grunting, gut impact...Primarily, it's constructed of fudged history and creative slaughtering, making it a somewhat disturbing American busman's holiday.
P.S. I Love You (2007)
Butler, though puportedly attractive, gives a chipmunk-chipper performance that can only be described as supremely annoying.
Nim's Island (2008)
Overplayed: there are entirely too many beaming smiles and emotional flip-outs...the only reason to see this movie is Foster, whose overplaying somehow succeeds at charming where her costars fail.
RocknRolla (2008)
Breaks no new ground for movies or for Ritchie, but it is an amusing diversion and therefore a return to form.
The Ugly Truth (2009)
Law Abiding Citizen (2009)
'It's going to get Biblical!'...sets new standards of lunatic plotting as it goes about its smiting.
Gamer (2009)
What to make of short-attention-span artists satirizing a short-attention-span world?
How to Train Your Dragon (2010)
The 3D is justified, mostly by flying sequences that are certain to fuel the dreams of many a child.
Machine Gun Preacher (2011)
Butler delivers an unconvincing performance that's part and parcel of a phony film lacking in any narrative subtlety or finesse.
Chasing Mavericks (2012)
There’s a nobility in a well-made teen movie, not least because of the rarity of the breed...[this] sports movie concerned with the physical, emotional, and moral development of a young man fruitfully aspires to the likes of
Breaking Away
.
Playing for Keeps (2012)
Another day at the Romantic Comedy Factory:
'...Pull me down a Gerard Butler and a Jessica Biel, will ya?'
How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2014)
While delivering the epic goods, the
How to Train Your Dragon
franchise continues to keep its eye on helping kids become better people, and that's a cause worth fighting for.
How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World (2019)
The little franchise that could is all grown up and ready to leave the nest, so wipe that tear away, and say your goodbyes, kids...For now...
