Aliens in the Attic (2009)
"What it lacks in originality and creativity it makes up for with action and a talented cast that breathes life into its thinly drawn characters."
Amazing Grace (2007)
"the film, like its central character, is resolute in its objective. Perhaps too resolute."
An American Carol (2008)
"The gags come fast and furiously with one-liners to make the case that liberals don't have exclusive rights to humor in Hollywood."
American Gangster (2007)
"Familiar territory, movingly if not memorably explored."
Angels & Demons (2009)
"Call it the 'National Treasure' for adults: harmless, but engaging fun that even Catholics shouldn't get too worked up about."
Tomato A
Apocalypto (2006)
"If any other director had made the spellbinding, visceral Mayan epic 'Apocalypto,' the film would be championed and unquestionably be discussed in Oscar worthy terms."
Appaloosa (2008)
"Appaloosa is ideally suited for fans of the genre for whom quiet drama speaks as loud as big guns."
The Astronaut Farmer (2007)
"If 'feel good' is a film objective worthy of ridicule, then call this reviewer a space cadet."
Australia (2008)
"Overcoming choppy storytelling, this film ultimately proves that the sum of its flawed parts is still a more than worthwhile adventure."
Splat C
Anger Management (2003)
"The bar for popular comedy continues its decline as does the standard for what used to be unacceptable in a PG-13 rated movie."
August Rush (2007)
"The excellent actors and good music make you think the movie will get better as it progresses, but it never does."
Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002)
"We get the comedy we settle for."
