Cameron Diaz
Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle (2003)
Shrek 2 (2004)
The perfect sort of movie to pay attention to in the back of a minivan.
In Her Shoes (2005)
[Jerks] every tear in the "chick-lit" book...but the fertile combination of Hanson, Grant, and the stars allows blossoms of truth and humor to spring up out of the mulch.
The Holiday (2006)
At one point Amanda remarks, 'In the world of love, cheating is not acceptable.' Also no longer acceptable: romantic comedies set in 'the world of love.'
Shrek the Third (2007)
No one but patrons with fistfuls of dollars can save this cash grab from itself.
Gangs of New York (2002)
The impact is all in the broad strokes of Scorsese's design: the corresponding coming-of-age stories of three confused and violent adolescents: Amsterdam Vallon, New York City, and America.
What Happens in Vegas (2008)
Another predictable romantic comedy, one that insists that spending time locked into an unhappy marriage doesn't breed contempt, but sows love.
The Mask (1994)
Pretty thin material, but it still holds up for the same reason it worked in 1994: Carrey unleashed in a part tailor-made for just that purpose.
Any Given Sunday (1999)
Stone isn't interested in merely bashing modern football:
Any Given Sunday
looks at the best and worst of the sport.
There's Something About Mary (1998)
Gauche, garish, and gross, a prime example of the coarsening of our culture and of the art of comedy in film. It's also pretty darn funny.
My Sister's Keeper (2009)
Undeniably manipulative, not only in its plot, but in its dramatization of it.
The Box (2009)
Shrek Forever After (2010)
What saves
Shrek Forever After
from utter mediocrity isn’t its high-priced superstar voice talent but veteran animator Dohrn, who steals the show by making Rumplestilskin the best oily runt since Danny DeVito last dispatched a taxi.
Shrek: The Whole Story (2010)
Now that the
Shrek
franchise has come to a close, it's time for the definitive collection on home video.
Knight and Day (2010)
As a pure popcorn, dreams-writ-large, kiss-kiss-bang-bang, globetrotting romp,
Knight and Day
delivers.
The Green Hornet (2011)
Spews noxious gas and obnoxious patter.
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998)
The Counselor (2013)
Life may be meaningless, but Cameron Diaz doing the (commando) splits on your windshield makes for a momentary distraction. I think we can all agree on that.
The Other Woman (2014)
If this is girl power, we're experiencing rolling blackouts.
Sex Tape (2014)
A sometimes amusing R-rated comedy that never quite hits the spot.
