The Beautiful Stranger by Julia London
This one has strong strengths and flaws. It’s hard to come up with a conclusive verdict, so… three oogies?
Author:Mrs Giggles
The Widow by Anne Stuart
Sometimes compromises can be a downer for the story.
What to Do about Annie? by Millie Criswell
The secondary characters are out of control in this one.
Going to the Chapel by Rochelle Alers, Gwynne Forster, Donna Hill, and Francis Ray
The theme is “obnoxious old-fashioned values”.
Once and Again by Deirdre Savoy
The heroine is so understanding when the hero is being an irrational dingbat. Good for her, but I’m so not here for this kind of thing.
Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001)
This one is far more beautiful than anything else. The story is quite meh, actually.
A.I. (2001)
More self indulgent than anything else, this overlong pretentious Oscar-bait movie doesn’t know when to stop or end itself.
Sushi for Beginners by Marian Keyes
All the charm of the author’s debut effort seems to have vanished altogether in this one.
Irish Lace by Candace McCarthy
The cretin in this one sets a new low for heroine dumbassery.
Angel Eyes (2001)
This one may not be a great movie, but the romance is unexpectedly hard hitting.
