Unless you love hip hop and rock/metal, you won't like everything here. It begins with five good hip hop songs, before the average 'Shut Up' by Trick Daddy and Co, and then it has a number of songs in the middle of the soundtrack from the rock sub genres. I don't hate them, with 'Whatever It Takes' being the least palatable and the electronic 'Stompbox' (that reminds me of songs that used to be on old racing video games) being the most likeable non-hip hop song. The hip hop, my preferred genre, is not an amazing collection of songs, but I enjoy them aside from 'Shut Up' and the Swizz Beatz 'Move Right Now'. The only R&B song here is Jamie Foxx's closer, 'Any Given Sunday (Outro)'. Like most soundtracks, this is a mixed bag, but it has more good moments than songs I dislike. Best Tracks: Never Goin' Back, Sole Sunday, Shit 'Em Down, Any Given Sunday, Stompbox

This 'SUPER ALBUM' features some of Patrice's best songs rerecorded and backed by slightly different instrumentation. They are different enough to feel fresh, but not different enough that means you won't like them if you're a fan of the originals. Apart from not loving all of the songs, the only negative is that at times the vocals aren't the same quality of the originals. Best Tracks: Soulstorm, Change Today, Sunshine, Burning Bridges, Cry Cry Cry, The Maker, You Always You

I was looking for a comedy to watch, so I browsed some lists and found this in amongst the top 100 comedies... It's not. The way the characters warm to Bob, a stranger, is ridiculous and not much of the comedy works at all. The first 25 minutes or so are okay as I was wondering where it would lead, but it isn't a path worth staying on. There are inconsistencies with Bob's supposed psychiatric/mental illness issues as well.

[Spoilers] The ending is often the let-down with horror movies, and here we have another example. This movie sets the scene, maintains an eerie vibe for quite some time, and also has some surprises, but having a two-year kill people isn't scary, it's closer to comedic. Therefore, the final act is mostly a miss.

[SPOILERS] As the synopsis mentions, an overweight, unhappy cook gets some joy in his life when a beautiful young lady named Callie (Liv Tyler) starts working at his mother's restaurant. This kept me interested, but I didn't feel like it went anywhere. His mother died, and he didn't tell anyone... That didn't really matter. The fact that she was gone leading to him having more responsibility with the business didn't really come into play. His weight concerns didn't end up mattering. Then there is the ending with him meeting someone. What happened previously that made that happen? Was there character development that allowed him to meet a woman? I didn't see it. I don't know if this was the intention, but at times when he was with Callie, the music was intense and the mood created made it seem like something wild was about to happen, only for it never to happen. I also found Victor, the main character, mute like qualities annoying. Speak, Man!!! 2.5-3/5.
