mattsheehan reviewed the movie Tropic Thunder

"An extremely funny satire of the film industry that has plenty of lightning but doesn't rumble Hollywood to crumbles--not as much as I'd like, anyways"
mattsheehan reviewed the movie The Dark Knight

"'The Dark Knight' transcends the comic-book movie genre, blending the borders--crime drama, Shakespearean tragedy and film noir--and leaving in it's wake a tragic performance by Heath Ledger that defines not just his career but the essence of film villainy."
mattsheehan reviewed the movie Get Smart

"Carell and Hathaway deliver the goods the smart way: to entertain. Don Adams is probably rolling in his grave--laughing. And he would be proud."
mattsheehan reviewed the movie The Incredible Hulk

"This time, 'Hulk' is as angry as the fanboys were at Ang Lee, but accomplishes little to top the previous underrated gem"

"The fornicating foursome rape us of almost two-and-a-half hours of our lives... and I don't care."

"His whip still cracks as it flies through the air. The punches still sound like a bomb going off aside the bad guy's jaw. The infamous theme music is right on cue. And after 19 years off the screen, the fedora still fits nicely."
mattsheehan reviewed the movie Baby Mama

"Tina Fey should've given contraceptions to this mediocre script and birth one of her own"

"It's clichéd to say, but this is one you won't forget, a culturally and socially significant film soon to join the likes of John Hughes' work of 'Sixteen Candles' and 'The Breakfast Club'"
mattsheehan reviewed the movie Street Kings

"Potent and powerful, 'Street Kings' is an unlawfully terrific balance of solid action and strong characters & story"
mattsheehan reviewed the movie Leatherheads

"'Leatherheads' lets the end game fall apart come two-minute warning"
mattsheehan reviewed the movie Run, Fat Boy, Run

"Like a marathon, 'Fatboy' takes endurance and ends up crossing the finish line successful nonetheless"
mattsheehan reviewed the movie Drillbit Taylor

"Surprising charm protects you from the bullying of stealing older films' plots--completely, at least"

"McDormand and Adams' lively and terrific chemistry carry this entertaining film"
mattsheehan reviewed the movie Semi-Pro

"'Fros and Ferrell... a good shot that isn't quite the Michael Jordan of basketball, but not as bad as the Michael Jordan of baseball."
mattsheehan reviewed the movie Diary of the Dead

"Romero sacrifices some entertainment value and zombie gore for a subtle commentary on today's post-9/11 condition... but it's still good"

"An admirable start to another potential fantasy book-to-film franchise that has a ho-hum story but is only positively accented by great special effects"
mattsheehan reviewed the movie In Bruges

"A 'Layer Cake'-esque dark comedy that is deep than hilarious politically incorrect dialogue abyss these rich characters dive into"
mattsheehan reviewed the movie Over Her Dead Body

"This movie was pushing up the daisies within 5 minutes of the start, thanks to Longora Parker's annoying, deadpan imitation of... herself"
mattsheehan reviewed the movie Untraceable

"'Saw' and 'The Silence of the Lambs' meets a bad 'Law & Order' episode--and Diane Lane can't even save the day"
mattsheehan reviewed the movie U2 3D

"See Bono as big as his ego--IN 3-D!!! Plus, cooler glasses than Bono! But you are right in the middle of one of the greatest rock band's concert thanks to IMAX's great sound system"
