Tomato
B

Dancer in the Dark (1999)

"I was devastated by it. What bothers me is this: It is the easiest thing in the world to do... move people by destroying something beautiful."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Splat
C-

Daredevil (2003)

"The relationship between Murdock and Elektra could have made for an interesting film."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
A-

Dark City (1998)

"It's a bit overbearing the first time you experience it, but the film holds up under repeat viewings, revealing more and more complexity and coherence."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
A+

Dead Man Walking (1995)

"The movie is neither indulgent in its portrayal of emotionally-charged subject matter, nor does it shy away from the consequences of murder."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
A-

The Departed (2006)

"... a fantastically entertaining crime thriller, crackling with energy from beginning to end. ... But Nicholson's outrageous over-acting becomes a distraction."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Splat
C-

The Devil's Own (1997)

"The line 'This is not an American story, it's an Irish one' means nothing ... it is a story as American as McNuggets -- all extra-crispy coating and no real meat underneath."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Splat
2/5

Diary of a Mad Black Woman (2005)

"What works in the theater doesn't always work in the movies. Part of the problem, as mentioned, is with the broadness of the material. But it doesn't help that the script relies way too much on syrupy voiceovers."

J. Robert Parks

Tomato
A-

Dirty Pretty Things (2003)

"Weaving threads of classic thrillers through this gritty realistic context, Frears satisfies our desire for a good story."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
B

The Dish (2001)

"Sitch's movie is a simple pleasure, full of memorable characters and comedy that could only occur under the direction of a patient and observant director."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Splat
C

Le Divorce (2003)

"At the end when we should be thinking about love and lessons of maturity, we are left with Isabel shrugging off her latest mistake and charging headlong into who-knows-what."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Splat
C-

Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story (2004)

"For every good punchline, there are fifteen that sound like they were scraped off the walls of mens' room stalls."

Jeffrey Overstreet

J. Robert Parks

Tomato
A-

Donnie Darko (2001)

"One of the most remarkable films of 2001, and it deserves a much larger audience than it has so far gained."

Jeffrey Overstreet

The Door in the Floor (2004)

J. Robert Parks

Tomato
A+

The Double Life of Veronique (1991)

"While this is the film that set the stage aesthetically for Kieslowski's masterful Three Colors trilogy, it is more mysterious than any of those films."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
A-

Doubt (2008)

"Many will leave disappointed by Shanley's refusal to settle for some simplistic 'Gotcha!' scene. ... But I need films that subvert my desire to divide people into white hats and black hats."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
B

Down With Love (2003)

"... as light, cheap, and ultimately as insubstantial as cotton candy. And yet, it inadvertently strikes some resonant chords."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Splat
D-

Dreamcatcher (2003)

"I challenge you to name a movie with a more convoluted or preposterous storyline."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
A

The Dreamlife of Angels (1999)

"Two unforgettable characters are revealed, and the truth resonates powerfully through their stories."

Jeffrey Overstreet
