Critic consensus:Action and drama elements don't mix well in this clichйd actioner.

Numbered reviews:1. A Man Apart is all about star power, but, as a star, Vin Diesel has no power.
2. Although more fun than the preachy Training Day, A Man Apart never quite reaches the seedy depths of Narc.
3. When Vin Diesel appears in something this unpleasant, this moronic, it makes the film seem even worse than it is.
4. There is a lot of graphic violence in A Man Apart, but there is little with the super-charged tension Gray strives for.
5. [An] annoying, laughable, badly thought-out film.
6. About two-thirds fun and one-third ghastly, the film will keep Diesel's fans satisfied without forming many new ones.
7. The film works best when it's sticking to the guns and poses conventions of macho crime pictures. When it reaches for emotional resonance, the results range from unconvincing to ludicrous.
8. It's all fast and furious up to its draggy finale, and yes, it could spark a sequel. Prepare yourself for coming dread in 18 months: A Man Together.
9. Diesel proves himself in a stronger role and grittier story.
10. Whatever appeal Diesel normally has is watered down in this flavorless cop film that refuses to stop until it has checked off every cliché on the list.


Critic consensus:An entertaining Jackie Chan stunt-fest in which the impressive action sequences overcome the low production value and by-the-numbers plot.

Numbered reviews:1. A true original at work, a man who can take a ski, a pinball machine or a football helmet and make them part of his own graceful brand of art.
2. As the guy who cleans up a ghetto, helps a crippled kid and does battle with a rampaging Hovercraft, Chan shows off the muscle of a superhero and the charm of a deft comedian.
3. The emphasis here is on impossible stunts and hilarious gags. When one of the bad guys says, 'I can't believe this guy,' the audience will likely agree.
4. Awe-inspiring.
5. The very medium of the moving picture exists to create the suspension of disbelief, and there is no greater live performer than Chan to make us believe you can beat up a street gang with a linen jacket and refrigerators.
6. You can smirk at Rumble and deny its pedigree with some justification, as long as you concede that it's 10 times more fun to watch than Before and After and Mary Reilly put together.
7. The fun of Rumble in the Bronx is watching Chan build up one inventive and off-the-wall action scene after another.
8. First-class acrobatics, second-class comedy, a third-class plot.
9. It's not often you find a movie as exciting and awful as Rumble in the Bronx.
10. If you are an action fan, and haven't seen Chan before, definitely see this film. If you don't have the taste for the genre, however, there is absolutely nothing here to draw you in.


Critic consensus:Undeniably lowbrow but surprisingly sly, Revenge of the Nerds has enough big laughs to qualify as a minor classic in the slobs-vs.-snobs subgenre.

Numbered reviews:
1. The real secret of this movie's success lies in the charm of its leading men.
2. Okay teen comedy, but nothing special.
3. Compared to most of today's gross-out extravaganzas... this exceedingly upbeat saga seems almost wholesome.
4. A teen-sex comedy with a brain!
5. A low-caloric comedy.
6. It was an 80's thing.
7. Revenge of the Nerds doesn't do much for movies or nerds.
8. The ultimate 80's teen comedy...Carradine and Edwards are gut-bustingly hilarious!
9. Hope for 4-eyed computer experts who let their mother's dress them.
10. One of the landmark tits and ass films of the eighties, and surprisingly a comedy with a lot of humor and even some heart.
