1. Leiner's lame-brained travesty shoots for wacky but instead ends up being intensely irritating.
2. ...has the advantage of being only eighty-three minutes long and the disadvantage of seeming like an eternity.
3. To paraphrase Bart Simpson, it achieves the impossible by both sucking and blowing at the same time.
4. The movie consists of a series of really stupid hit and miss jokes, pratfalls and sight gags. Surprisingly, there are more hits than misses.
5. A painful, wearying slice of pure drivel.
6. None of the jokes are funny, sex is referred to far too often, and Seann William Scott's acting is beyond the pale.
7. Just irredeemably bad. It's not smart, it's not original, it's not charming, and it's certainly not funny.
8. Even if Dude, Where's My Car? would rate a zero on the Laugh-o-Meter, at least it is a fairly good-spirited and colorful film that produces a few smiles.
9. The definition of aiming low is when the John Hughes film you're ripping off is Weird Science.
10. Daft and lovable and even kinda daring, Dude deserves its truly clueless studio's belabored support.
Consensus: The movie isn't funny, the plot is too thin, and the production values feel more like a TV sitcom than a movie.
1. The latest entry in the horror series is simply a slasher flick. At that level, it's not bad, with some clever twists on the genre.
2. No, it's not as single-minded as John Carpenter's original, but it's sure a lot smarter and more unnerving than the sequels.
3. Hard-core slasher aficionados will find things to like ... but overall the Halloween series has lost its edge.
4. Generic slasher-movie nonsense, but it's not without style.
5. The thrill is (long) gone.
6. There's only one way to kill Michael Myers for good: stop buying tickets to these movies.
7. Simply a re-hash of the other seven films.
8. Much of the cast is stiff or just plain bad.
9. While this is neither the first nor last time that will be the case, it is time to hang, gun down or lop off the head of this ugly cinematic series once and for all.
10. Sad nonsense, this. But not without cheesy fun factor.
Consensus: The only thing this tired slasher flick may resurrect is nostalgia for when the genre was still fresh and scary.
1. Essentially just a big-screen episode of the series, and that's more than enough to satisfy any audience.
2. Alarmingly similar to the television cartoon.
3. Has not a trace of what made the early episodes of the cartoon fun, and even at a slight 80 minutes, is a complete waste of time.
4. Although filled with bright colors, the film's animation has a cheap two-dimensional look to it as if they did the same slapdash job expected for a kid's television show.
5. If you're a kid, you'll probably like it.
6. The Rugrats Movie is more like a pleasant Sunday drive in a big smooth sedan than the TV show's riotous joyrides in a fast, shiny convertible.
7. Television's most popular children's show successfully toddles to the big screen, offering all the sass and cuteness that Rugrats fans expect -- and more.
8. I think it's nothing short of shockingly irresponsible.
9. Bored me silly. Really silly.
10. How is it remotely possible, that a film of such awkward amateurishness even be allowed to hit the screen?

Consensus: Charming characters; loads of fun for kids and adults.
