Hackers - What can you say about "Hackers" except that it's bad?

Half Baked - It's the usual single note joke repeated ad infinitum until it almost bores.

Hamlet (1964) - Russian "Hamlet." Who'da thunk it.

Hannibal - It is vomitous rubbish that only the most sick-minded and juvenile person could get pleasure from viewing.

Happenstance - The storylines here flop all around one and other like fish out of water, desperately gasping for breath.

Happiness - It's a perfect comedy precisely because one almost never knows whether a laugh is begin elicited or not.

Happy Birthday - The gay male storylines range from the contrived to the depressing.

Happy Endings - A thriving, living, breathing multi-storylined piece.

Happy Gilmore - Relying on his goofy, sweet, coy charisma.

Happy Here and Now - I wasn’t happy here and now when watching this turkey.

Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle - I have to admit that it is the funniest fucking stoner movie I have ever seen.

Harrison Bergeron - It is one of the best adaptations of Vonnegut's work turned screenplay, possible second only to George Roy Hill's film of "Slaughterhouse 5."

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets - This film is CGI'ed to the extreme. There is just one cool effect after another.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - There's nothing cool or awesome to gives one a feeling of "Wow" during the film.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban - Yes, thank God, Harry Potter and the little actor that portrays him, Daniel Radcliffe, are finally growing up.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone - Fans of the books may have something to delight in here but all I saw was a wasted opportunity for true creativity and a marketing ploy almost unrivaled in it's bold-faced audacity.

The Haunting - Jan de Bont put his name all over this crap like he was proud of it.

Head-On - It goes right over the head of a ignorant American like myself.

The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things - This film may knock on the doors of bizarre, disgusting craziness, evoking the harsh realities of drug abuse, prostitution, child abuse, and white trash squalor, but this simply is not enough. It really needs to kick the fucking door wide open.

Hedwig and the Angry Inch - Wow wow wow wow wow oh fucking wow!

Hedy - Boring and definitely from Andy Warhol's self-referential phase

Heist - Isn't going to win any awards or be a huge blockbuster at the megaplex, but it's a solid movie with great acting, crisp dialogue and consummate direction.

Hellbent - I can't believe how much I loved this movie.

Hellboy - What a treat.

Heller in Pink Tights - Is really an odd film.

Hell House - The Assembly of God church is a freaky, weird-ass cult as well as a corrupter of the minds of children.

He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not - Probably the most engaging and impressive foreign film I've seen since "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."

Here on Earth - Hey, if your a 14 year old girl, you will love this movie.

He Got Game - Doesn't simply provide a straightforward story here but instead presents an awesome overwhelming view of the complete picture.

Henry Fool - Is a poetic, realistic, charming and sly piece of cinematic subversiveness.

Hero - The best film buff date movie since "Kill Bill."

Herod's Law - The film just got more and more dull and pointless as it drug on for 2 hours.

He Said, She Said - It might be easy to dismiss this as a "gimmick" film, it it's stars weren't so engaging in their roles.

Hey! Happy - When a gay film has three male main characters named Happy, Spanky and Sabu, you know you are in for a unique experience.

Hidalgo - Mainly, it's a lot of a guy on a horse in the sand.

Hide and Seek - It's a psychological thriller starring Robert Deniro's latest dyejob and THE CREEPIEST LITTLE GIRL IN HOLLYWOOD.

High Fidelity - Is an awesome film. Not necessarily cinematically, not plotwise. But the script is astute and awesome.

The Hi-Line - With a leisurely pace that borders between engrossing and tedious, "The Hi-Line" explores the confused, needy and quiet qualities of a young woman's existence.

His Secret Life - The story veers into unique yet wonderful territory. But the next "gay people are like circus folk" genre film will probably feel my wrath.

A History of Violence - An interesting premise and surprising storyline is nearly ruined by a bad script evoking bad acting and bad direction.

Hit and Runway - We get a new kind of gay film here, the 90's straight guy in a gay world, trying to come to terms with himself.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Isn't something that fans of the work are going to exalt. In fact, many of them will quite rightly hate it.

High Tension - I have to tell what happens in the film to prove what a piece of shit it is. Consider yourself warned.

Hitler's Children - People sometimes forget that the Americans had propaganda during WWII too.

A Hole in My Heart - Is a film that will stick with you for a long time.

Hollywood Homicide - Both buddy action cop flick and a comedy to boot.

The Holy Land - Don't believe the hype.

A Home at the End of the World - These are simply wonderful characters growing and coming to life for us.

Home for the Holidays - The finished product evolves into little more than problematic crap.

Home Movie - It just all seems, well, very lazy in its approach.

Home on the Range - From the beginning, the film is fast, slap-happy and chaotic.

Home Sweet Hoboken - Scenes that mimic Hong Kong Action films with their shadowy and soft pastel colors.

The Honeymooners - This must be the most asinine idea for a film yet.

Hostage - Sadly the script for this film is a piece of holy cheesecloth (used to wipe a Hollywood producer's ass) that does nothing to achieve a sense of believability.

Hotel Room - Works because it is an anthology, 3 stories set in the same hotel room. With only a short amount of time to tell a story,Lynch isn't allowed to meander, he has to get right to the point.

Hotel Rwanda - Has at its heart a more powerful message about hope and the unbelievable compassion and humanity of man.

The Hours - Disappointing in its ability to evoke any sort of emotional response.

House of Angels - Populates the film with wonderfully quirky characters and shows us the hypocrisy of the members of a small town.

House of Flying Daggers - The House of Flying Daggers must be right next door to The River of the Ridiculous.

House of Fools - Fingernail-on-the-chalkboard classic.

House of Sand and Fog - An incredible story.

A House on a Hill - It expands the limitations of film. It opens up the frame of film in a way that hasn't been done before.

How Stella Got Her Groove Back -Lengthy and expansive, the film tells the story of Stella, a 40 year old stock broker who goes on a vacation in Jamaica and falls for a 20-year-old chef.

How the Grinch Stole Christmas - Isn't really trying to reinvent the wheel here, but rather retread the tires.

H.R. Pukenshette - A funny and fresh film out of puke and fart and shit jokes. That, my friends, is tough to do.

The Hulk - A big green piece of shit.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame - Nice turn from Disney with superb animation.

Hurlyburly - David Mamet on cocaine.

Hurricane Streets - Shows us a world that is never easy. 

Hustler White - More puerile trash from Bruce LaBruce. Here he takes on Warhol by taking on "Sunset Boulevard," which Warhol took on with "Heat." Then he takes on "Heat" as well.
