“Everybody Has a Plan”
It's a car movie made by people who couldn't find reverse in a Volkswagen; a puzzle box thriller assembled by the functionally insane.

AI,
Spielberg is bleaching the dirt out of the human mind and leaving behind only the vacant gaze of machine ‘love.’ Coca Cola ads do much the same thing — and they don't take two hours.
Bryan Appleyard
(1951 – ) British journalist & author
Reviews/Criticism
"AI"
The entire film seems to consist of three thoughts, cycled ad nauseum: Don’t leave me. I can’t live without you. Make me a vampire.

Orson Welles
If I’d had anything to do with it, I’d be wearing a balaclava and writing under an assumed name.

In a review of “The Lone Ranger”
This is an old idea, beautifully expressed by Wordsworth, who said, ‘Heaven lies about us in our infancy.’ If I could quote the whole poem instead of completing this review, believe me, we’d all be happier. But I press on.
Roger Ebert
(1942 – 2013) American film critic, journalist & screenwriter

The play was a great success, but the audience was a disaster.

“Hercules”
It’s as if seven Vice Presidents of Production sat in a boardroom for three days straight, without food or water, and finally their collective genius, poring over reams of test screening data, resoundingly declared with one voice,
“We Need More Rum Jokes.”

“Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest”
Boat Trip
arrives preceded by publicity saying many homosexuals have been outraged by the film. Now that it's in theaters, everybody else has a chance to join them. Not that the film is outrageous. That would be asking too much. It is dim-witted, unfunny, too shallow to be offensive…
Roger Ebert
(1942 – 2013) American film critic, journalist & screenwriter

He decided to make it [
