Madagascar (2005) |
"The penguins, lemurs, and chimps absolutely steal the show!" |
John Venable |
Tomato 8/10 |
Madagascar (2005) |
"It's not groundbreaking by any means, but it's the best family film out there so far this Summer." |
Paul Salfen |
Tomato 7/10 |
Maid in Manhattan (2002) |
"It's formulaic, but manages to be mildly entertaining." |
John Venable |
Tomato |
The Majestic (2001) |
"An enjoyable holiday movie with a timely patriotic feel." |
Paul Salfen |
Tomato 7.5/10 |
Malibu's Most Wanted (2003) |
"Despite being a one-trick pony with a horrible ad campaign, this is one of the funniest flicks of 2003!" |
John Venable |
Tomato 6/10 |
A Man Apart (2003) |
"There's almost nothing original about it, but Diesel is good and it manages to entertain on some level." |
John Venable |
Tomato |
The Man Who Wasn't There (2001) |
"This film should be shown in film school the first day they discuss lighting. The attention to detail shown with light, shadow, and abscence of light are impossible to ignore even if you never notice those sort of things." |
John Venable |
Tomato 4/5 |
Marathon Man (1976) |
"Armchair dentistry! Ouch!" |
John Venable |
Tomato 8/10 |
Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003) |
"While not a must see, this is a well made and entertaining film." |
John Venable |
Splat |
The Master of Disguise (2002) |
"I really wanted to get up and walk out, but morbid curiousity held me in my seat to see if it ever got any better. It didn't. This blows beyond imagination." |
John Venable |
Tomato 8/10 |
Match Point (2005) |
"When you get 'lucky' and things go your way, is that always a good thing? Allen explores that notion and has a deliciously clever response. The ending alone makes this worth seeing." |
John Venable |
Tomato 8/10 |
Matchstick Men (2003) |
"Alison Lohman steals the movie from Cage and Rockwell...very impressive!" |
John Venable |
Tomato 9/10 |
The Matrix (1999) |
"It's incredible." |
John Venable |
Tomato 8.5/10 |
The Matrix Reloaded (2003) |
"Everyone's expectations are through the roof for this one, and for the most part, it delivers." |
John Venable |
Tomato 8/10 |
The Matrix Revolutions (2003) |
"Worthy of theater viewing based only on the mind-blowing CGI which take effects to a new level. The story's no longer intriguing, just the action." |
John Venable |
Splat 6.5/10 |
The Matrix Revolutions (2003) |
"The last two Matrix installments, as with most sequels, tarnish the original by making the characters less interesting than they originally appeared." |
Paul Salfen |
Tomato 8/10 |
Max (2002) |
"An ambitious 'what if?' that works." |
John Venable |
Splat 1/10 |
May (2003) |
"No redeeming qualities whatsoever and incredibly tough to sit through, this blows." |
John Venable |
Splat |
Mean Machine (2002) |
"Some of the acting is average, the direction is below average at times, and the writing is way below average most of the time." |
John Venable |
Splat 5/10 |
Memoirs of a Geisha (2005) |
"It's an overlong film that looks great, but might leave you feeling a bit nauseous. Wait for it to hit cable." |
John Venable |
Tomato 7.5/10 |
Men in Black II (2002) |
"While a lot of the inventiveness is still there, much of the funny isn't." |
John Venable |
Tomato |
Men in Black II (2002) |
"...like most sequels, just isn't as good as the original." |
Paul Salfen |
Splat 4/10 |
Message in a Bottle (1999) |
"Leaves one feeling empty." |
John Venable |
Tomato 8/10 |
Metallica: Some Kind of Monster (2004) |
"The filmmakers didn't do anything to make Metallica look like douchebags, the band did that very well on their own." |
John Venable |
Tomato 8.5/10 |
A Mighty Wind (2003) |
"Christopher Guest has proven himself to be the master of an entire genre of film. He owns the mock-umentary." |
John Venable |
Tomato 9.5/10 |
Million Dollar Baby (2004) |
"It has stereotypical underdog elements, but Eastwood, Swank, and Freeman are so powerful in the film, that it seems fresh." |
Paul Salfen |
Tomato 10/10 |
Millions (2005) |
"It's funny, sweet, touching, and pure movie magic." |
John Venable |
Tomato |
Minority Report (2002) |
"Spielberg is back on track with one of the best sci-fi films to come along in quite some time." |
Paul Salfen |
Tomato 8.5/10 |
The Missing (2003) |
"Much better than this year's Open Range, and just as good as the award winning (and in my opinion overrated) Unforgiven." |
John Venable |
Tomato 9.5/10 |
Mission: Impossible III (2006) |
"Is that Simon Pegg from Shaun of the Dead? Yeah, it is!" |
John Venable |
Tomato 9/10 |
Mission: Impossible III (2006) |
"...one of those films that's fun to see in the theater with a full audience on a big screen, popcorn in hand." |
Paul Salfen |
Tomato 7/10 |
Mona Lisa Smile (2003) |
"The flaw of this film is that Julia Roberts doesn't look like she's from the 1950s. Other than that, it'll be a decent rental. Marcia Gay Harden & Maggie Gyllenhaal are great!" |
John Venable |
Tomato 10/10 |
Monsters, Inc. (2001) |
"There are loads of stuff on the extra disc, and if you loved the movie like I did, you'll no doubt love the DVD!!!" |
John Venable |
Tomato 10/10 |
Monsters, Inc. (2001) |
"This flick is absolutely fantastic from top to bottom, beginning to end!" |
John Venable |
Tomato |
The Mothman Prophecies (2002) |
"A better-than-expected thriller..." |
Paul Salfen |
Tomato |
Moulin Rouge (2001) |
"The music is fun, familiar, and most importantly not forced. When characters break into song it doesn't seem quite as akward as it does in the standard musical." |
John Venable |
Tomato 8.5/10 |
Mr. 3000 (2004) |
"Bernie Mac is great! This movie is funny! Ignore the lame commercials/trailers and check it out!" |
John Venable |
Tomato 8/10 |
Mr. and Mrs. Smith (2005) |
"An absolutely ridiculous movie that happens to be ridiculously fun." |
John Venable |
Tomato 7.5/10 |
Mr. Deeds (2002) |
"See it with someone you love...or at least someone who enjoys Sandler." |
John Venable |
Tomato |
Mr. Deeds (2002) |
"Typical Adam Sandler fare, but pretty entertaining nonetheless." |
Paul Salfen |
Tomato 10/10 |
Mrs. Henderson Presents (2005) |
"Curious as to why Judi Dench has been nominated for 4 Oscars, 5 Golden Globes, 8 SAG Awards, and 20 BAFTAs? See this film and you'll understand why." |
John Venable |
Tomato 6/10 |
The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008) |
"...passable popcorn entertainment, it's just disappointing that they couldn't find anything new or original." |
Paul Salfen |
Tomato 8/10 |
Munich (2005) |
"Not even my favorite Spielberg film of 2005." |
John Venable |
Splat |
Murder by Numbers (2002) |
"Only mildly entertaining, "Murder By Numbers" is not as "thrilling" as a thriller should be." |
Paul Salfen |
Tomato 9.5/10 |
Murderball (2005) |
"You can feel sorry for these guys if you want to...but they'll probably kick your ***." |
John Venable |
Tomato 9/10 |
My Super Ex-Girlfriend (2006) |
"Uma is sexy, Luke is funny, and the script is hilarious...check it out!" |
John Venable |
Tomato 8/10 |
Mystic River (2003) |
"I can't figure out why, but it didn't really stick with me once I left the theater. It's very good, but not transcendent." |
John Venable |
