Baadasssss! (2004) |
"Compelling storytelling from the opening frame to the final credits, led by a cigar-chomping iconoclast doing it by any means necessary." |

Babel (2006) |
"I would be surprised if, after 140 minutes of grim punishment, any audience member could be truly moved by this everlasting symphony of pain." |
Brian Orndorf |
Splat D |
The Babysitters (2008) |
"Is Ross trying to mimic Michael Haneke, daring his audience to be disgusted by the very titillating premise which probably brought them to the movie in the first place?" |

Bad News Bears (2005) |
"Thornton just steamrolls his way through the film, rarely allowing the fun and comedy to breathe." |

Bad Santa (2003) |
"Sure to become a holiday perennial for those with a macabre sense of humor, or forever laminated on Santa's naughty list." |
Edward Havens |
Splat D- |
Baghead (2008) |
"What could have been an amusing short subject, the Duplass Brothers' not-quite-horror/not-quite-comedy drags its one note premise out to an almost mind-numbing 84 minutes." |
Edward Havens |
Tomato B |
The Ballad of Jack and Rose (2005) |
"As an investigation of disturbing behavior, the film is near perfect. As a dramatic creation, Miller’s inventive filmmaking skills have failed her." |

Band of Brothers (2001) |
"One of entertainment's most ambitious and critically-lauded undertakings in 2001...What makes this stand apart from previous collections HBO has introduced is its delicious packaging." |

Tomato B |
Bandidas (2006) |
"It's incredibly inconsequential, buttery entertainment, but it'll surely put a smile on your face if you can find a way to appreciate its rambunctious spirit." |
Brian Orndorf |
Tomato A |
The Barbarian Invasions (2003) |
"A film with a sense of joy and wonder as it celebrates our existence, while reminding us of some of the human traits… which keep us from enjoying life as much as we should." |

Barnyard: The Original Party Animals (2006) |
"This is a film made to babysit kids for 80 minutes during the summer months, and shouldn't be regarded as anything more." |
Brian Orndorf |
Tomato B- |
Basic Instinct 2 (2006) |
"Basic Instinct 2 isn't quite the spurting geyser of sexual excess that the original was, but it has a sense of reservation and a rather graceful desire for worth that makes it an acceptable distraction." |
Brian Orndorf |
Splat C- |
Batman Begins (2005) |
"Never boring enough to dislike... never interesting enough to be engaging" |
Edward Havens |
Tomato B+ |
The Baxter (2005) |
"Refreshingly free of the ironic uncouth toilet humor usually found in most modern rom-coms." |
Edward Havens |
Tomato B |
Be Cool (2005) |
"Be Cool is a solid, funny, groovy return to the screen for Chili and his wacky west coast adventures, while also not embarrassing the original film." |
Brian Orndorf |

The Beat That My Heart Skipped (2005) |
"Affirms the best cinema has to offer: exciting acting, beautiful music and cinematography, great writing and a lack of condescending to the audience" |
Edward Havens |

Beauty Shop (2005) |
"It’s hard to deny Latifah her energy, but the Beauty Shop material is so tired it should come outfitted with a comforter and pillows." |

Because of Winn-Dixie (2005) |
"Winn-Dixie is simply an episodic film, and not a particularly inviting one at that." |
Brian Orndorf |
Tomato B |
Bee Season (2005) |
"Bee Season is a unique cinematic offering, and its dedication to the mysteries of the mind makes for a fascinating sit." |
Brian Orndorf |

Beerfest (2006) |
"These guys look like a bunch of accountants making movies on their smoke break, and Beerfest isn't made to please anybody but their fraternity brothers still chained to their Peter Pan Syndrome." |

The Benchwarmers (2006) |
"Well, outside of the jokes about nose-picking, animal feces, small genitalia, homophobia, urinating in the shower, flatulence, and co-starring the reigning king of unfunny, Jon Heder, Benchwarmers is actually a passably funny motion picture." |

Beyond the Sea (2004) |
"Spacey’s tinkering is perplexing, and conspires against the real reason any film about Darin should be made: to showcase Darin’s sublime natural abilities." |

Big Momma's House 2 (2006) |
"It isn't that House 2 is a complete disaster from start to finish, but more that it's a completely uninspired comedy" |

Bigger, Stronger, Faster* (2008) |

Birth (2004) |

Birth (2004) |
"The only shocking thing is how a talented filmmaker, working with one incredible cast could end up with a film that equals far less than the sum of its remarkable parts." |

The Black Dahlia (2006) |
"De Palma's bliss in depicting the bruise-n-babes era roars at the senses like a 3-D effect, pushing Dahlia to wonderful heights of production detail." |
Brian Orndorf |

The Black Dahlia (2006) |
"Vilmos Zsigmond's lush cinematography alone is almost worth the price of admission, and Jenny Beavan's costumes remind us why the late 1940s were one of the best times for fashion in the modern era." |

Blonde Ambition (2007) |
"Just how bad is the latest Jessica Simpson film? It doesn't just belong on a Worst of 2007 list or even a Worst of the Decade list, but high amongst The Worst Movies Ever Made." |

BloodRayne (2006) |
"BloodRayne is a visual joke, with Boll limply organizing a period horror/action film with all the confidence and subtlety of Baby Huey, and with about the same level of literacy." |
