Tomato
4/5

The Da Vinci Code (2006)

"I never found it dull. It's often preposterous -- yes, a fast-driving psychotic albino monk would be my first choice for an inconspicuous assassin -- but rarely boring. "

Ken Hanke

Splat
.5/5

Daddy Day Camp (2007)

"Doesn't attain the acute awfulness of last week's Bratz -- but also lacks the grim 'end of civilization as we know it' fascination of that discharge of dumbness."

Ken Hanke

Splat
1/5

Daddy's Little Girls (2007)

"Even when Perry doesn't dress up like a woman, he's pretty much a drag."

Ken Hanke

Splat
2/5

Damien: Omen II (1978)

"Lots of laughs...all unintended"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

Damn Yankees (1958)

"Hard to watch, TV-looking filmed stage play with some good songs and Ray Walston."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4.5/5

The Damned (1969)

"Imperfect and excessive -- and also essential."

Ken Hanke

Splat
2.5/5

Dan in Real Life (2007)

"If these people actually existed, I'd suggest avoiding contact for fear of contracting terminal insipidity."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Dance With a Stranger (1984)

"Compelling fact-based drama"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3.5/5

Dance, Girl, Dance (1940)

"As a piece of Hollywood history, the film's worth seeing, but it's no unsung masterpiece."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

The Dancer Upstairs (2003)

"I'm not sure that I have ever seen a more compelling picture of sudden violence as is depicted here – Malkovich's approach is apt, since the film takes place in a world where terrorist acts are the order of the day."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys (2002)

"Rich, strange and riddled with imperfections, it runs the risk of having its sins overlooked in a particularly grim summer of movie going."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Daniel (1983)

"A rich, complex and not wholly satisfying film."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Danny Deckchair (2004)

"In a sane world, this utterly charming, sweet little fantasy of a movie would boost Rhys Ifans to stardom. "

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3.5/5

Darby O'Gill and the Little People (1959)

"I have to admit that by the second or third time I saw leprechauns depicted as magical by speeding up the film, I was hoping for someone to show up with a gun."

Ken Hanke

Splat

Daredevil (2003)

"Everything %u2013 but everything %u2013 happens in such a mind-numbingly by-the-numbers fashion that the Batman-ripoff ending is apt to generate not awe, but an outburst of, 'That's it?'"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

Dario Argento's Tenebre (1982)

"Not the director's best"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
5/5

The Darjeeling Limited (2007)

"About as close to perfection as you're likely to get."

Ken Hanke

Splat
0/5

The Dark Backward (1991)

"Really strange. Really bad"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

The Dark Corner (1946)

"Nifty, effective little thriller."

Ken Hanke

Splat
3/5

The Dark Crystal (1982)

"This ersatz Tolkien with puppets looks and plays like ersatz Tolkien with puppets."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4.5/5

Dark Habits (1984)

"It's hard to imagine how it could be any more Almodovar-esque than it is."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

The Dark Knight (2008)

"A must-see for Ledger alone, but there's more to it than that. If anything, the film is a grim portrait of our own paranoia, sense of hopelessness and selfishness."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Dark Passage (1947)

"Maybe not one of the great noirs, but certainly one of the good ones."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Dark Victory (1939)

"Classic glossy soaper that still works."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3.5/5

Dark Water (2005)

"This slow-paced art film of some considerable merit has bamboozled its way into multiplexes by masquerading as a straight horror picture."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

Darkman (1990)

"Nice to look at, but it doesn't really work."

Ken Hanke

Splat
1/5

Darkness (2003)

"This is one of those horror flicks that's determined to show how serious it is by having almost nothing happen for about half its length."

Ken Hanke

Splat
1/5

Darkness Falls (2003)

"The first new horror film of the new year is the sort of unmitigated donkey crap that makes even a hardcore horror fan like myself understand why the genre is held in such disdain by non-fans."

Ken Hanke

Splat
.5/5

Date Movie (2006)

"The kind of brutally painful movie-going experience generally associated with the lesser efforts of Rob Schneider."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

The Daughter of Dr. Jekyll (1958)

"Indefensibly bad, undeniably fascinating."

Ken Hanke

Splat
2/5

Daughters of Darkness (1971)

"Mystifyingly overrated horror flick that moves like fire hydrant in winter"

Ken Hanke

Splat
2/5

Dave (1993)

"Arrant nonsense mixed with goo."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

Dawn of the Dead (1978)

"Essential, but overrated horror opus."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Dawn of the Dead (2004)

"For those who were never that sold on Romero's film, the new version emerges as a contender for the year's best horror picture."

Ken Hanke

Splat
2.5/5

The Day After Tomorrow (2004)

"The next step is a movie that is all destruction and extras being bludgeoned, buried, drowned, frozen, or eaten by wolves without recourse to any pesky screenplay. "

Ken Hanke

Tomato
5/5

A Day at the Races (1937)

"The Marxes' last truly great film."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

Day of the Dead (1985)

"Low-budget, scaled-down follow-up that doesn't really cut it."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

The Day of the Locust (1975)

"Blistering film version of the novel. One of Schlesinger's best works."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

The Day of the Triffids (1963)

"Good, but hardly great sci-fi."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

The Day the Earth Caught Fire (1961)

"Slow, depressing, but convincing sci-fi film"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)

"Classic sci-fi film that still has some power"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

Day the World Ended (1956)

"Entertaining cheesy nonsense from the early days of Roger Corman."

Ken Hanke

Splat
0/5

Days of Thunder (1990)

"Absolute rubbish."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Days of Wine and Roses (1962)

No article available.

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3.5/5

De-Lovely (2004)

"Is De-Lovely a failure? In many ways, yes. But it's the kind of failure I'd rather see than I would many more successful films."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Dead Again (1991)

"Nice thriller that benefits from Branagh's direction and suffers from his performance"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Dead Alive (1993)

"Outrageous and outrageously funny horror opus from Peter Jackson"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Dead End (1937)

"Intelligent, generally effective film version of the Kingsley play."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid (1982)

"Too clever for its own good when it should be worried about being funny."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
5/5

Dead of Night (1945)

"One of the great ghost story films"

Ken Hanke
