Susan Stark
The grown-up's comedy of choice for summer.
Charles Taylor
Small Time Crooks is appealing.
Roger Ebert
The characters in Small Time Crooks are smarter, edgier and more original than the dreary crowd in so many new comedies.
J. Hoberman
Allen's funniest, least sour outing in nearly a decade is a small movie with a tidy payoff.
Mark Caro
These people offer no sense that they exist beyond the bits of exposition that Allen has written into his screenplay.
Tom Keogh
This is vintage Allen, his powers intact after a string of increasingly cranky, creaky films in the last few years.

Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy
Comedy
4
There was a time before cable when the local anchorman reigned supreme....Enter the hard-hitting world of the 1970s local TV news, where Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell) and his loyal Channel 3 New Team are San Diego's #1 rated news source. All is well in their male-dominated world of news until beautiful, rising-star reporter Veronica Corningstone turns it all upside down. Sparks don't just fly, they ignite an all-out war between the two perfectly coiffed anchorpersons. In a job where it pays to keep a straight face, Anchorman is the comedy that makes it almost impossible to stop laughing.

Comedy

Johnny Knoxville reprises his Jackass role as 86-year-old Irving Zisman in the story of a crotchety old man unexpectedly saddled with the care of his 8-year-old grandson Billy (Jackson Nicoll). The two generations of troublemakers soon develop a bond, as they hustle their way across the heartland of America on an outrageous road trip with a whole lot of high jinks and pranks on unsuspecting, real-life people—all of whom had no idea they were starring in a "truly shocking"* hidden camera comedy. *Fred Topel, CRAVEONLINE.com
The Italian Job (2003)
The plan was flawless. The execution was perfect. Charlie Croker pulled off the crime of a lifetime. The one thing that he didn't plan on was being double-crossed. Now he wants more than the job's payoff...he wants payback. Mark Wahlberg is electrifying as Croker in this "fast and furious action-adventure."* Along with a drop-dead gorgeous safecracker (Charlize Theron), Croker and his team take off to re-steal the loot and end up in a pulse-pounding, pedal-to-the-metal chase that careens up, down, above and below the streets of Los Angeles. With an ensemble all-star cast that also includes Edward Norton, Seth Green, Jason Statham, Mos Def, Franky G and Donald Sutherland, The Italian Job is "Hot!"
