Joel Schumacher

  • "The Number 23"

    There are at least 23 things wrong with this dunderheaded semi-psychological thriller -- Jim Carrey's only one of them.
  • "The Phantom of the Opera"

    Andrew Lloyd Webber's crowd-pleasing musical lands on the screen with a big, gaudy splat.
  • "Veronica Guerin"

    Cate Blanchett's portrayal of the murdered Irish journalist is a blatant Oscar bid. But Joel Schumacher's crude bio-drama never comes close to asking the real questions.
  • "Phone Booth"

    Kiefer Sutherland is on the line, and he'll say anything to Colin Farrell to steal 80 minutes of your precious time. Just hang up!
  • "Bad Company"

    This cookie-cutter spy thriller depends on the chemistry between Anthony Hopkins and Chris Rock. Um, wait, there isn't any.
  • David Cronenberg

    For more than three decades, his films have been taking you to the weirdest of worlds. Lucky for you, you can always walk out -- unless you're too terrified to move.
  • "Flawless"

    "As Good as It Gets" goes downtown in a lame stab at indie credibility from hack director Joel Schumacher.
