Napoleon Dynamite (2004) |
"While it runs out of steam near the end, it never runs out of charm, thanks to Jon Heder’s narcoleptic zeal as the title character." |

Neil Young - Heart of Gold (2006) |
"Casual fans may be lulled into drowsiness by the meandering quality of many of Young's new songs, but his heartfelt commitment to the material is hard to deny." |

Netto (2005) |

Never Again (2002) |
"Schaefer's...determination to inject farcical raunch...drowns out the promise of the romantic angle." |

The New World (2005) |

Nina's Tragedies (2005) |

Nine Lives (2005) |
"The moral seriousness of 'Nine Lives,' about the dark internal forces which guide the human heart, evokes a Bergmaneqsue vision." |
Les Wright |
Tomato |
The Nines (2007) |
"August's screenplay for "The Nines" is fun, confusing, provocative...And if he isn't as edgy or daring as he might be, there's much to be said for a film that's as entertaining and thought-provoking as the best episodes of The Twilight Zone." |
Harry Chotiner |
Splat 6/10 |
The Ninth Gate (1999) |
"Painful to watch The Ninth Gate’s meticulous tone and rhythms go for naught in its final half-hour." |

No End in Sight (2007) |
"No End is Sight is the product of a calmly systematic desire for knowledge, and as such, does not offer solutions, only profound insight." |
Beverly Berning |
Tomato |
No Man's Land (2001) |
"'Who's On First?' in a corpse-riddled trench, with moral culpability for a genocidal civil war rather than the identity of a first baseman as the punchline. A staggering debut." |

Tomato |
Nobody Knows (2005) |
"'Nobody Knows' and its astounding collection of young actors capture the heart without a hint of tear-jerking or saccharine sentimentality." |

North Country (2005) |
"Despite its flaws, 'North Country' delivers a story worth hearing, a documentation of profound unfairness and the need to challenge abusive behaviors." |
Arthur Lazere |
Tomato |
Northfork (2003) |
"Like poetry, [Northfork] is condensed, rich in suggestions, ambiguities, and deliberately unanswered questions." |

Notorious C.H.O. The Movie (2002) |
"Most of the movie cruises along well enough to earn amused smirks and occasionally elicit the big laugh." |
George Wu |
Tomato |
Notre Musique (2004) |
"The rueful work of a man who once fell hard for simplistic, murderous politics and has come to see his mistake." |
Gary Mairs |

Nurse Betty (2000) |

quite original: a comic meditation on our involvement with popular culture,
