Joel Siegel Critic Quotations

Home Alone goes Hollywood, a funny premise until the kids start pulling off stunts not even Steven Spielberg would know how to do.

What I learned from this movie, 40 Days and 40 Nights: Absitenence can be a very good thing. Especially from box offices where this film is playing.

Samuel L. Jackson is one of the best actors there is.

Television news was expanding to an hour, and producers did not know how to fill the space and time.

When all the performances are excellent, critics understand it's the direction.

If you fight back and get hit, it hurts a little while; if you don't fight back it hurts forever.

There are scenes here and effects here that would make George S. Patton wince.

The studio should not have released this film.

You can't believe Russell Crowe is the same actor who won an Oscar one year ago for Gladiator.
