Tomato
5/5

A Nous La Liberte (1931)

"Wildly funny, endlessly creative, experimental and utterly charming, it is a too-often overlooked classic."

Ken Hanke

Splat
2/5

A Scanner Darkly (2006)

"About on par with watching Cheech and Chong follow up a screening of their Up in Smoke with a PSA on the evils of marijuana. "

Ken Hanke

Splat
2/5

Abandon (2002)

"A surprising number of laughs can be had in Traffic-author Stephen Gaghan's directorial debut, Abandon. Unfortunately, most of them weren't intended."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3.5/5

The Abandoned (2007)

"At its best, it's an effective shocker with an atmosphere that seeps into your very bones. The problem is it's not always at its best, and when it isn't, it really isn't."

Ken Hanke

Splat
2/5

Abbott and Costello Go to Mars (1953)

"Even for Abbott and Costello fans, this must be trying."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

Abbott and Costello Meet Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1953)

"Passable Abbott and Costello entry with plus of Karloff."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948)

"Superior Abbott and Costello vehicle with great Bela Lugosi Dracula performance."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

Abbott and Costello Meet the Invisible Man (1951)

"Better than average Abbott and Costello vehicle."

Ken Hanke

Splat
2/5

Abbott and Costello Meet the Mummy (1955)

"One of those movies that explain why Bud and Lou went out of style."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

The Abominable Dr. Phibes (1972)

"One of Price's best--stylish and witty"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3.5/5

Abouna (2004)

"Gorgeously photographed, thematically complex and nothing if not ambitious, but strangely lacking in emotional punch. "

Ken Hanke

Tomato

About a Boy (2002)

"A pretty extreme leap for two guys whose previous idea of both unorthodox and sophistication consisted of utilizing a pie in a way Mrs. Smith never had in mind."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

About Schmidt (2002)

"There isn't one moment of its humor that isn't grounded in pain %u2013 Schmidt's and our own."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

The Absent-Minded Professor (1961)

"Enjoyable Disney effects comedy with good cast."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

Absolute Beginners (1986)

"More interesting for what it attempts than for what it accomplishes."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Absolutely Fabulous - The Complete Collection: Series 1-3 (1992)

No article available.

Ken Hanke

Splat
2/5

Accepted (2006)

"If -- for whatever incomprehensible reason -- you're searching for a movie with maximum ennui value, this is that movie."

Ken Hanke

Splat
0/5

Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994)

"There's bad and then there's this."

Ken Hanke

Splat
0/5

Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls (1995)

"From the man who would one day give us Kung Pow. Need I say more?"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
5/5

Across the Universe (2007)

"Julie Taymor's Across the Universe is an imperfect film, but it's still five-full-stars' worth of imperfect film."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3.5/5

Adam (2009)

"An undeniably pleasant film about an unusual subject that just happens to be topped off by a really good performance from the massively underrated Hugh Dancy."

Ken Hanke

Splat
1/5

Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights (2002)

"There's more scatological action in 8 Crazy Nights than a proctologist is apt to encounter in an entire career."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Adam's Rib (1949)

"Enjoyable Tracy-Hepburn comedy. Maybe not great, but very good"

Ken Hanke

Splat
3/5

Adaptation (2002)

"Is this really a film to be enjoyed for its own sake, or is it a movie that exists to be dissected over Campari and soda at The Club?"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

The Addams Family (1991)

"Still Sonnenfeld's best film."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

Addams Family Values (1993)

"Not up to the first one, but watchable."

Tomato
4/5

Adventures in Babysitting (1987)

"Surprisingly sprightly, entertaining, sweet-natured comedy."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988)

"Impressive, but it seems like an awful lot of effort to no real point"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Adventures of Captain Marvel (1941)

"One of the best of all classic cliffhangers."

Ken Hanke

Splat
0/5

The Adventures of Ford Fairlane (1990)

"Look at the star. Look at the director. See something else."

Ken Hanke

Splat
1/5

The Adventures of Pluto Nash (2002)

"The great pity is that those responsible didn't cut their losses %u2013 and ours %u2013 and retitle it The Adventures of Direct-to-Video Nash, and send it to its proper home."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4.5/5

The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994)

"Both an unalloyed delight and a surprisingly human, moving film."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
5/5

The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938)

"The classic swashbukler. They don't get better than this"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3.5/5

Adventures of Sharkboy and Lava Girl in 3-D (2005)

"While the movie is far from perfect, overall it's a worthy attempt. "

Ken Hanke

Tomato
5/5

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (1939)

"The best and most stylish of the Rathbone-Bruce Holmes series."

Ken Hanke

Splat
1.5/5

Aeon Flux (2005)

"The tag line is, 'The Future Is Flux.' Personally, I think they left the 'ed' off that last word, and it's not only the future that's in this state, but the movie itself. "

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

An Affair to Remember (1957)

"Good, but a little too much. McCarey's 1939 version was trimmer and better."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3.5/5

Afghan Star (2009)

"This documentary about the Afghani version of American Idol is good and worth a look, but I was never swept up by it emotionally."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

The African Queen (1951)

"Entertaining star vehicle, but not the great film it's assumed to be."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

After the Fox (1966)

"Another movie that pretty much wastes Sellers."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

After the Thin Man (1936)

"Superior sequel. Not up to the original, but close"

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

After The Wedding (2007)

"A shrewdly constructed narrative and strong lead performances make up for much -- including Bier's irritating penchant for shoving her handheld camera in her cast's faces."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Agatha (1979)

"The film has moments of absolutely breathtaking beauty that more than make up for any dramatic shortcomings. Occasionally the imagery actually becomes the drama. "

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

The Air Up There (1993)

"Not nearly as bad as you think."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
3/5

Airport (1970)

"It spawned a sub-genre, but it was old-fashioned when it was new."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Akeelah and the Bee (2006)

"There's just too much charm, too much heart, too much obvious sincerity and too much genuine quality to allow the film to be blown off."

Ken Hanke

Splat
2.5/5

The Alamo (2004)

"Simplistic history and pompous, jingoistic propaganda; worst of all, it lacks much in the way of excitement. "

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Alexander (2004)

"Even when I didn't like Alexander, I was aware that this is a serious work by a forceful and important filmmaker with a distinctive tone of voice. "

Ken Hanke

Tomato
5/5

Alexander Nevsky (1938)

"The true meaning of epic."

Ken Hanke

Tomato
4/5

Alfie (1966)

"Essential 60s Michael Caine."

Ken Hanke
