I am a Sex Addict (2005) |
"Zahedi is wry and certainly fearless as he pours his sex life onto the screen, but around the ninth time he goes cruising for prostitutes it gets a little hard to take.

Rob Thomas |
Tomato 3/4 |
I Am Trying to Break Your Heart (2002) |
"What should have been an entertaining cinematic souvenir solely for Wilco fans ended up becoming a smart, involving, and occasionally infuriating film" |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 3/4 |
I Capture the Castle (2003) |
"A quirky and handsome family drama that nicely captures the pangs and pleasures of adolescence." |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 4/4 |
I Heart Huckabees (2004) |
"One brilliant, funny and generous film that exists somewhere between "Siddhartha" and Sid Caesar.
" |

Splat 1/4 |
I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell (2009) |
"If ever a movie needed a restraining order issued against it, it's "I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell."" |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 3/4 |
I Like Killing Flies (2006) |
"You can't go home again, the film reminds us, and you can never eat the same meal twice. At least not at Shopsin's." |
Rob Thomas |
Splat 2/5 |
I Love Trouble (1994) |
"Just no chemistry between the leads." |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 4/4 |
I Served the King of England (2008) |
""I Served the King of England" is like an endless feast, featuring one spectacular course after another. Somehow, you never get so full that you want to push yourself away from the table." |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 4/5 |
I Shot Andy Warhol (1996) |
"Harron's style and Taylor's unforgettable performance keep us off-balance and engrossed." |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 3/4 |
I'll Sleep When I'm Dead (2004) |
"While "Get Carter" had the visceral nastiness of an electric guitar solo, "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" is more like a mournful jazz riff, atmospheric and unresolved.
" |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 3/5 |
I'm Gonna Git You Sucka (1988) |
"Probably an hour's worth of funny in a 90-minute movie." |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 4/4 |
I'm Not There (2007) |
"It's frustrating, brilliant, beautiful, maddening, hilarious and tragic, and may ruin me for conventional rock 'n' roll biopics that provide easy motivations and facile answers." |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 3/4 |
I've Loved You So Long (2008) |
"This isn't a movie about big emotional breakthroughs, but about the slow thaw taking place in Juliette's heart, and writer-director Philippe Claudel and the actors do an excellent job in charting a series of small, telling steps forward." |
Rob Thomas |

Splat 2.5/4 |
Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs (2009) |
"It's not much more than a ride; the plot is thin, the characters aren't very engaging, and it just lacks that storytelling spark that Pixar movies have year after year." |
Rob Thomas |
Splat 1/5 |
Ice Pirates (1984) |
"The robot pimp made me laugh, and that's it." |
Rob Thomas |
Splat 2.5/4 |

Tomato 3.5/4 |
Il Divo (2009) |

Imagine Me & You (2006) |
"If only Ennis from "Brokeback Mountain" could hop off the screen, wander next door and watch "Imagine Me and You."" |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
In Bruges (2008) |
"Writer-director Martin McDonagh revels in splattering his profane, bloody film all across Bruges' lovely cobblestones, and the result is a spectacular, hilariously transgressive debut." |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
In Her Shoes (2005) |
"Those who dismiss it as another lightweight in the vein of “The Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood” will miss out on a sharp and effervescent comedy-drama." |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
In the Loop (2009) |
"If the corridors of power really are this dysfunctional, let's at least hope they're this funny, too." |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 4/4 |
In the Valley of Elah (2007) |
"It's when the investigation sorts out the knowable (what happened?) and then moves into the unknowable (why?) that "Elah" moves beyond genre and becomes one of the year's best films." |
Rob Thomas |

Rob Thomas |
Tomato 3/4 |
Inside Deep Throat (2005) |
"One thing "Inside Deep Throat" proves is that Americans can get nostalgic over just about anything." |
Rob Thomas |
Splat 2/4 |
Interview (2007) |
"There's just one hysterical scene after another, ideal for an acting class but off-putting over the course of even a relatively short film like this one." |
Rob Thomas |
Splat 2/5 |
Into the Night (1985) |
"Landis at his most cameo-obsessed and self-indulgent." |
Rob Thomas |
Splat 2/4 |
Introducing The Dwights (2007) |
"When the film veers into drama toward the end, it's a bottle-throwing, mascara-streaked exercise in bathos rather than anything remotely resembling real life." |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 3/4 |
Ira & Abby (2007) |
""Ira & Abby" doesn't throw out the romantic comedy rule book, but it occasionally shuffles the pages a little for comic effect." |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 3/4 |
Iraq in Fragments (2006) |
"We're used to seeing Iraq through the lens of washed-out digital video, so it's striking how sumptuous and elegantly-composed the shots are in "Iraq in Fragments."" |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
It Might Get Loud (2009) |
"Yes, this is the sort of stuff that makes rock fans absolutely geek out. But Guggenheim's relaxed approach does allow us to get past the guitar-god mystique and show us three fellow tradesmen in love with their craft." |
Rob Thomas |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Italian (2007) |
"What really makes this potentially melodramatic story so powerful is the incredibly intense and focused presence of little Kolya Spiridonov, who makes you believe Vanya's determination and grit every step of the way." |
