Accepted (2006) |
"While his 28 year-old face has a hard time passing for a teenager, Long's gusto for the role really gives the film oomph when it needs it the most." |

Across the Universe (2007) |

Adventureland (2009) |
"Sometimes, a critic is going to connect with a movie, even one they can admit has some major problems, because it so mirrors their own expereinces." |

Edward Havens |
Tomato B |
After the Sunset (2004) |
"The film is devoted to life after the thievery, where the spoils of victory can be enjoyed to their fullest potential...a great start to this spirited, sun-drenched caper." |

Akeelah and the Bee (2006) |
"The theme of educational growth against incredible odds is richly appreciated, but the payoffs lack dramatic gas." |

Alfie (2004) |
"Jude Law is perfect for the role in every way, matching Caine's charms note for note, and only besting the maestro with his disarming good looks." |

Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004) |

The Ant Bully (2006) |

Aquamarine (2006) |
"Aquamarine is a frothy, cute feature film that (for at least a good 70 minutes) should be painless for adults, and manna from heaven to girls.

Ask the Dust (2005) |
"A stylistic triumph, one whose story and character shortcomings are overcompensated with lush visuals, a haunting score and a trio of strong performances" |

Tomato B+ |
ATL (2006) |
"This is a superb film with a lot to say about people, not stereotypes. And it does so with vigor and intelligence, not a crushing need to play to the lowest common denominator." |
Brian Orndorf |
Tomato B+ |
Aurora Borealis (2006) |
"Borealis constantly dodges formula by taking little asides with the characters that are unpredicted, and exercising the Minneapolis setting to investigate the literal and symbolic thawing of a wounded soul." |
Brian Orndorf |

The Aviator (2004) |
"Amongst contemporary American filmmakers, it can only be said perhaps of Martin Scorsese alone that a good movie from him is a disappointment." |

Away We Go (2009) |
"For my money, the new dramatic comedy "Away We Go" is the first serious contender for Best Picture of the Year consideration." |
Edward Havens |

Awesome! I... Shot That! (2004) |
"The result is a free-flowing, hyper-edited pastiche of sight and sound, real and unreal, and the occasional bathroom break. It's a lot of things, but it stays true to the title: it is awesome." |

A Scanner Darkly (2006) |
"Dick fans will find more to play with here than the average viewer. But as a rotund demonstration of visual imagination and social insight, the absence of focus just murders the effort." |

Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker (2006) |
"Stormbreaker isn't a sour film, but it doesn't have a pulse; limping through extended action beats with cookie-cutter authority and often horrific direction." |

Alexander (2004) |
"It’s been five years since Stone helmed a feature film, and the question must be asked: has anybody missed him?" |

Alien vs. Predator (2004) |

All This and World War II (1976) |
"Nostalgia often incurs when an item is kept from public consumption, and it is likely all wistful feelings for this film would disappear if it ever becomes available for mass consumption." |

Alone in the Dark (2005) |
