Rating	T-Meter	Title \| Year	Add Date (default)

Rotten D+	Rotten 35%	Returner (2002)	" While watching the movie, you may also feel like you've traveled back in time -- to the plots of any number of better films." Posted Oct 16, 2003
Rotten D-	Rotten 55%	American Wedding (2003)	" A groin-numbing onslaught of sexual-humiliation and emission-ingestion gags." Posted Jul 30, 2003
Rotten C+	Rotten 40%	Rugrats Go Wild (2003)	" Mildly amusing, but compared to Pixar's splashy fish story, the rudimentary drawings and childish gags of Nickelodeon's latest feature look, in a word, cartoonish." Posted Jun 11, 2003
Rotten D+	Rotten 47%	Final Destination 2 (2003)	" Opens with a horrific traffic accident, which seems apt since what follows is the cinematic equivalent of rubbernecking." Posted Jan 29, 2003
Rotten D-	Rotten 8%	Darkness Falls (2003)	" Like something salvaged from Stephen King's wastebasket." Posted Jan 25, 2003
Fresh B+	Rotten 21%	Empire (2002)	" Between bursts of automatic gunfire, the story offers a trenchant critique of capitalism." Posted Dec 5, 2002
Rotten D-	Rotten 6%	Extreme Ops (2002)	" The film's most improbable feat? It didn't go straight to video." Posted Dec 5, 2002
Rotten F	Rotten 13%	Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights (2002)	" *The most ill-conceived animated comedy since the 1991 dog Rover Dangerfield.*" Posted Nov 27, 2002
Rotten D	Rotten 2%	Half Past Dead (2002)	" It's no use: At this point, the bloated action figure [Seagal] couldn't restore his street cred if he joined the Wu-Tang Clan." Posted Nov 13, 2002
Fresh B-	Fresh 65%	Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie (2002)	" Bouncy animation and catchy songs keep the film from tasting too much like spinach." Posted Oct 24, 2002
Fresh B	Rotten 17%	Abandon (2002)	" A competently made, mildly diverting collegiate thriller." Posted Oct 17, 2002
Rotten D+	Rotten 53%	The Transporter (2002)	" It's like the worst movie Jean-Claude Van Damme never made." Posted Oct 10, 2002
Rotten D	Rotten 8%	Stealing Harvard (2002)	" The timing in nearly every scene seems a half beat off." Posted Sep 19, 2002
Rotten C	Rotten 0%	Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever (2002)	" *Kaos was apparently aiming for a coolly stylized, straight-faced take on Spy vs. Spy.* As Maxwell Smart used to say, 'Missed it by that much.'**" Posted Sep 19, 2002
Rotten D	Rotten 8%	Out Cold (2001)	" *The result is so derivative, they should've called it Eskimo Pie.*" Posted Dec 6, 2001
Rotten C	Rotten 4%	Soul Survivors (2001)	" A cinematic oxymoron: the tasteful teensploitation pic." Posted Sep 14, 2001
Fresh B+	Fresh 73%	Tortilla Soup (2001)	" At times, the movie smacks of a standard-issue Hollywood chick flick ... Yet Elizondo's endearingly low-key performance ultimately engenders such goodwill that these quibbles seem moot." Posted Sep 6, 2001
Rotten C-	Rotten 19%	John Carpenter's Ghosts of Mars (2001)	" The acting is so pallid that you're never sure the cast members quite get the jokes." Posted Aug 27, 2001
Rotten F	Rotten 30%	Bubble Boy (2001)	" After enduring only a few minutes of this shrill debacle, you'll feel more trapped in the theater than Jimmy is by his bubble." Posted Aug 27, 2001
Fresh	Rotten 53%	Young Girl and the Monsoon (2001)	" When Kinney and Muth share scenes, it's hard not to get caught up." Posted May 4, 2001
Rotten D-	Rotten 8%	The Forsaken (2001)	" Startlingly amateurish." Posted May 2, 2001
Rotten C-	Rotten 26%	Pok�mon the Movie 3 (2001)	" It's enjoyable only if you're under the age of 7 -- or the influence of psychedelic drugs." Posted Apr 5, 2001
Rotten	Rotten 30%	102 Dalmatians (2000)	The sequel adds more insults and injuries that could traumatize little ones. Posted Jan 1, 2000
Rotten	Rotten 23%	Digimon: The Movie (2000)	*With its migraine-inducing laser showdowns and puerile gags ... Digimon* almost makes you nostalgic for the relative sophistication of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.** Posted Jan 1, 2000
Fresh	Fresh 75%	Rugrats in Paris (2000)	*With its melange of poo poo humor and pop culture in jokes, Nickelodeon's Rugrats* packs appeal for both kids and parents.** Posted Jan 1, 2000
Rotten	Rotten 28%	Three to Tango (1999)	*McDermott's natural earnestness serves him well as attorney Bobby Donnell on The Practice, but he shows zero flair for comedy.* Posted Jan 1, 2000
