D.E.B.S. (2005) |

The Da Vinci Code (2006) |
"It's a long trip around religious theories and elaborate puzzles, but it's a trip worth taking for some slow-burn decoding delights." |

The Da Vinci Code (2006) |
"It is simply one of those movies which may have been made with the best of intentions but tries to appeal to too many people to be remotely interesting." |

Danny Deckchair (2004) |
"The premise is preposterous, the situations are silly and the finale is fairly fallow. Yet the film still [is]... a simple and joyous affair." |

The Darjeeling Limited (2007) |
"The new 20th Century-Fox Home Video release of "The Darjeeling Limited" offers quite a conundrum for fans of Wes Anderson..." |

Dark Water (2005) |
"It's familiar material twisted into interesting directions, and even if it doesn’t always succeed dramatically, the attempt is clear, and I appreciate the film for that alone." |

Dark Water (2005) |
"Would have been... more entertaining as an absurdist comedy about the troubles one woman will go through in order to not live in Queens, the Bronx or (God forbid) Jersey." |

Date Movie (2006) |
"It's just February, and we've already found a film worse than BloodRayne. I didn't think it would happen that fast, but here we are." |

The Day After Tomorrow (2004) |
"More than a cubic zirconia but far from a diamond, the film should find as many supporters as it does detractors as it spends at least one week leveling the competition." |

Dear Wendy (2005) |
"Wendy might have a bizarre sense of locale and idolatry, but the imagination of the filmmakers is just enough to help swallow their incredibly condescending posturing." |

Deep Blue (2005) |
"Deep Blue isn’t as fortunate with screen dimensions, but it works, if only because it’s hard to deny the vast beauty and mysteries that lie in our abyssal oceans." |

The Departed (2006) |
"Departed is tonally confident and visually ambitious in ways only Scorsese can pull off with gusto and precision, scored with a hiccupy mix-tape of bash-ya-head-in tunes from a broken iPod." |

Derailed (2005) |

The Devil's Rejects (2005) |
