Rabbit-Proof Fence (2002) |
"True tale of Australian children running from the cruelty of adults is visually captivating -- with an urgent emotional core." |
James Rocchi |
Splat 1/5 |
Radio (2003) |
"Phony, pseudo-retro tale about a disabled boy and the football coach who reached out to him is thin, syrupy mush." |
James Rocchi |
Tomato 3/5 |
Rain Man (1988) |
"Slightly overrated Cruise-Hoffman Oscar-winner still works." |
James Rocchi |
Tomato 4.5/5 |

Red Dragon (2002) |
"Revamped remake of the prelude to The Silence of the Lambs is a demonstration of why bigger isn't necessarily better." |
James Rocchi |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
Red Rock West (1993) |
"As Red Rock West reached its conclusion, I was completely caught up in its plot -- and unsure of what would happen next. That's rare in a thriller, and it's a tribute to the ingenuity, skill and craft of the people on both sides of the camera." |

"Driver and Duchovny shine in romance with heart." |
James Rocchi |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Return to Oz (1985) |
"Return to Oz is hardly as kid-friendly as The Wizard of Oz, but older children with a taste for the fantastic will find it interesting. Adult Oz fans will find it entertaining as well." |

The Ring Two (2005) |

"A nice animated trip for kids, but hardly a required journey for grown-ups." |
James Rocchi |
Tomato 4/5 |

"The Road to Perdition is paved with good intentions -- and some mistakes in execution -- in this Tom Hanks gangster film." |
James Rocchi |
Tomato 5/5 |
The Road Warrior (1981) |
"The Road Warrior isn't Citizen Kane, but it has a lot of things -- power, speed, brains and energy -- in massive quantities and at a high degree of quality that many films can only dream of." |

Roger Dodger (2002) |
"An older cad instructs a younger lad in Zen and the art of getting laid in this prickly indie comedy of manners and misanthropy." |

Rollerball (1975) |
"The combination of Roman Empire-styled decadence and violence mixed with a vision of a bizarre, loveless corporate future is evocative and unsettling." |

Rollerball (2002) |
"A mix of velocity and idiocy, this ruinous remake lacks the brawn -- and the brains -- of the 1970s original." |

Rounders (1998) |

The Royal Tenenbaums (2001) |
"Wes Anderson's fairy tale of New York has martini-dry comedy and a superb ensemble cast that can't overcome the failings of the quirky, convoluted script." |
