An unexpectedly exuberant, only mildly subversive celebration of music, learning, and going all out for what you love.

Surely it’s a credit to this luminous cast that the characters can behave in such despicable ways yet still command one’s sympathy.

It puts almost everything it has into its explosive set pieces, but manages to instill the audience with just enough emotional involvement. If, Ah-nold decides to come bach again, this installment should ensure he has an audience.

So tasteless, so fiendishly puerile that it’s hilarious.

The film is well-paced and surprisingly suspenseful.

Miracle is definitely exciting, and it’s family-family to boot. Take the kids. They may not buy the "any dream is possible" stuff, but if nothing else, the story might pique their interest in American history.

The Descent is bloody, disturbing, and genuinely frightening--you'll be very happy to leave that dark theater.

Hood's film, with its bold, beautiful cinematography and hard-thumping kwaito music, brings us into a different world, and then helps us to understand it.

Camp may not be great cinema, but it's passionate and original enough to be special.

Touching.
