Splat
2.5/4

Fabled

"There isn't that much more to it than mood."

Rob Thomas

Splat
2.5/4

Face (2004)

"The performances are almost enough to overcome the story’s essential inertness."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/4

Factotum (2006)

"An audience's appreciation for Bent Hamer's film rests largely on how much time they'll want to spend in Chinaski's well-worn groove."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
4/5

The Falcon and the Snowman (1985)

"A smart, nuanced spy thriller that's all about the gray areas."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3.5/4

The Fall (2008)

"One of the most distinctive-looking films ever to play in a theater, a dark fantasy overflowing with mesmerizingly weird images at every turn."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3.5/4

Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009)

"Every kid probably won't get "Fantastic Mr. Fox." But then again, not every adult gets a Wes Anderson movie. But if the right kid and the right parent find themselves in the seats, they should have a ball together."

Rob Thomas

Splat
2/4

Fast Food Nation (2006)

""Meanders when it should be on point, gets preachy instead of insightful, and presents cardboard characters at every level of the food chain."

Rob Thomas

Splat
2/4

Father and Son (2004)

"A beautiful but static viewing experience that utterly fails to touch the viewer."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/4

Favela Rising (2006)

"You couldn't find a setting that's more hopeless than the crime-ridden slums of Rio de Janeiro, and yet Jeff Zimbalist and Michael Mochary tell a story that's unabashedly uplifting as well as emotionally raw. "

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/4

Fear(s) of the Dark (2008)

"The influences shown by its group of American and European artists are Edgar Allan Poe and Alfred Hitchcock rather than George A. Romero and Stephen King, getting chills not out of what we're shown, but what we imagine lurks in the darkness of the gorgeou"

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3.5/4

Fearless (2006)

""Fearless" not only talks the talk, it walks the walk -- or side snap-kicks the side snap-kick, if you want."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/4

Fellini I'm a Born Liar (2003)

"Only those who are familiar with or curious about Fellini’s work will find it a rewarding experience."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/4

Festival Express (2004)

"A time of innocence and hope was rolling away like a train leaving the station, and “Festival Express” gives it a fond farewell."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/4

Fever Pitch (2005)

"“Fever Pitch” becomes a pretty insightful take on how much of ourselves we willingly give up when we enter a relationship, and how much we hang onto."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/4

Fido (2007)

"One senses that zombie film kingpin George A. Romero, who satirized consumerism in "Dawn of the Dead," would smile like a proud papa if he saw it."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
4/5

Field of Dreams (1989)

"Original and moving fantasy about the things that make guys tear up."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
5/5

A Fish Called Wanda (1988)

"One of the funniest movies of the decade."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
5/5

A Fistful of Dollars (1964)

"The film that made Eastwood Eastwood is a fantastic Western classic."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/5

The Flamingo Kid (1984)

"Winning comedy about a have-not among the haves."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/5

Flesh and Bone (1993)

"Haunting film, with unexpectedly great supporting performances by Caan and Paltrow"

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/4

The Flight of the Red Balloon (2008)

"The question is whether it really makes sense to turn Lamorisse's fanciful original film into a downer family drama; it's sort of like doing a modern-day version of "Narnia" where the kids never find the wardrobe."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/4

Flow: For Love of Water (2008)

"Yeah, we really don't have enough to worry about these days. So why not grab a Pellegrino and see "Flow," Irena Salina's documentary about the end of the world's water supply as we know it?"

Rob Thomas

Tomato
4/4

The Fog of War (2003)

""The Fog of War" is a fascinating documentary, both an examination of the forces that guide nations and a portrait of an old man who slipped through his own fingers."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/4

Following Sean (2006)

"While the film is ostensibly a "49 Up" style look at how Sean the child grew into the man, what it really is is a penetrating look at how Arlyck the young man grew into an old one."

Rob Thomas

Splat
2/5

Footloose (1984)

"A '50s B-movie very awkwardly translated to the '80s."

Rob Thomas

Splat
2.5/4

Forty Shades of Blue (2005)

""Forty Shades of Blue" might have benefited from a little more honest melodrama, as the film is so subtle at times that it barely registers."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3.5/4

The Fountain (2006)

"Simultaneously one of the most grandiose and most personal films to hit theaters this year, a film that goes halfway around the galaxy to hit you where you live."

Rob Thomas

Splat
1/4

The Fourth Kind (2009)

"He apparently thinks white owls are a lot scarier than they are. (I mean, I guess because their heads swivel around, you can't sneak up on them from behind. But when would you need to sneak up on an owl?)"

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/5

The Fourth Protocol (1987)

"Above-average spy thriller, with Brosnan making a great baddie."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/5

French Kiss (1995)

"An engaging and graceful comedy"

Rob Thomas

Tomato
4/5

The Freshman (1990)

"A perfectly-paced, winning comedy"

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3/5

Fried Green Tomatoes (1991)

"There's just enough human feeling here to make it transcend the feel--good chick-flick genre."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3.5/4

Friends With Money (2006)

"How exhilarating it is to watch great actresses get material that's worthy of them."

Rob Thomas

Splat
2/5

The Frisco Kid (1979)

"Cute but forgettable Western comedy."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
5/5

From Russia with Love (1963)

"Only "Goldfinger" was a better Bond for Connery."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
4/5

From the Earth to the Moon (1998)

"A fine docudrama that honors heroes without deifying them."

Rob Thomas

Tomato
3.5/4

Frost/Nixon (2008)

"It might have been easier to simply try to make Nixon sympathetic; Langella tackles the harder job of making him more understandable while still giving us the Tricky Dick we know in all his rumbling, flawed glory."

Rob Thomas

Splat
2/5

FX2 - The Deadly Art of Illusion (1991)

"Lacks the spark and flair of the original."

Rob Thomas
