Waco: The Rules of Engagement (1997) |
"I was pretty sure that I had heard everything that I wanted to hear about this 'unfortunate incident', but after watching this documentary, I realized that I was wrong - I want the truth." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 3/5 |
Wah-Wah (2006) |
"The film has that Merchant-Ivory look and feel to it (which means grade A cinematography, a first-rate British cast, and a scandal)." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 3/5 |
Waist Deep (2006) |
"I could almost recommend this action movie as an entertaining ride, but I wouldn't pay theater-price to see it." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |

Waiting... (2005) |
"If you’re planning on a dinner-and-movie date, make sure you have dinner FIRST (preferably at a restaurant where you can watch them cook your food)." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 4/5 |
Waitress (2007) |
"Irreverently funny, with a cast of characters that go together like homemade pie and ice cream." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |

Waking Up in Reno (2002) |
"4 friends, 2 couples, 2000 miles, and all the Pabst Blue Ribbon beer they can drink - it's the ultimate redneck road-trip." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 3/5 |
Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (2007) |
"When they run out of clever ways to be funny, they fall back on their old standbys: crude, rude, nude, and lewd, which just shows that they didn't have enough material." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Walk on Water (2005) |
"Walk On Water deals with weighty subject matter without making it a heavy movie." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 4/5 |
Walk the Line (2005) |
"The line might be a bit long but it is well worth the journey." |

Walking Tall (2004) |
"Walking Tall doesn't measure up. Hopefully, next time The Rock will pick a role that stretches more than his biceps." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 2.5/5 |
The Wall (2004) |
"The problem I have is that it stretches out the minutes like the wall stretches out for miles. It’s an interesting subject that would be better served as a documentary short." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005) |
"The look is appealing, but it’s the characters that you’ll latch onto. This is the kind of story animation was made to tell." |

War of the Worlds (2005) |
"The ending fizzles... war should end in a victory that you can feel superior about and celebrate. It's close, but this encounter didn't rock my world." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
War Photographer (2002) |
"If you ever wondered what it would be like to be smack in the middle of a war zone armed with nothing but a camera, this Oscar-nominated documentary takes you there." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The War Within (2005) |
"It's topical, scary, and it makes you stop and think." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Warm Water Under a Red Bridge (2001) |
"The characters are interesting and the relationship between Yosuke and Saeko is worth watching as it develops, but there's not enough to the story to fill two hours." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 2/5 |
Wasabi (2002) |
"Been there, done that, liked it much better the first time around - when it was called The Professional." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Washington Heights (2003) |
"The performances are good... but they're just 2-dimensional people living in a 3-dimensional world." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 3/5 |
Wassup Rockers (2006) |
"This is an improvement in some ways, but losing the edginess also means there's nothing special about this film." |

Water (2006) |
"This is one of those great foreign films that you wish Hollywood would make so more people would go see them." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |

The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep (2007) |
"You can't go wrong with a family movie about a boy and his pet ... even if that pet goes from the size of a puppy to a full-blown sea monster in a matter of days." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Waterborne (2005) |
"The action is kept up-close and personal, focusing on individuals instead of mass hysteria. This sense of immediacy brings the audience closer to the story." |

Splat 2.5/5 |
We Don't Live Here Anymore (2004) |
"This story is like the shot of the passing train that keeps repeating - it's loud, but it's not going anywhere, and the moment that it's gone, you forget you ever saw it." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |

We Were Soldiers (2002) |
"This is an incredible story badly told." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Weather Man (2005) |
"This movie took me by surprise – both the edginess of the comedy and the warmth of the characters. It’s not at all what I was expecting, and so much better than I hoped." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Weather Underground (2003) |
"It's hard to sit and listen to these people that are in their 50's speaking fondly of the good ole days when they had sex and drug parties and blew up stuff (yes, this is a huge exaggeration, but that's it in a nutshell - and nutty is how they sound)." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 4/5 |
Wedding Crashers (2005) |
"Do you take these guys to be your wedding crashers - I do. They know how to get the party started. The movie is silly and raunchy and exactly what you would hope for." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |

The Wedding Date (2005) |
"Most of the time, it's as flat and lifeless as Debra Messing's hair." |

A Wedding for Bella (2001) |
"Me no lika da accents so good, but I thoroughly enjoyed the love story. Scott Baio is turning in some delightful work on indie projects." |

Welcome to Mooseport (2004) |
"If these guys were really running for office, both candidates would have to withdraw due to lack of interest (especially the audience's)." |

Whale Rider (2003) |
"Whale Rider is made up of one incredible moment after another and Keisha Castle-Hughes has a screen presence that demands your attention." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |

What a Girl Wants (2003) |
"What a girl wants may be to dance with her daddy, but what this film critic wants is a shorter, better movie that's not nearly so tedious." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Splat 3/5 |
What Alice Found (2003) |
"What we found is a bleak, but interesting look into a world where the line is blurred between good people and bad. Judith Ivey's performance is the real jewel of the film." |
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
What the Bleep Do We Know? (2004) |
"In the mood to contemplate life, the universe, and everything? It will either make you think profound thoughts or make your brain hurt trying to grasp what they're saying." |
