Tomato
A-

Rabbit-Proof Fence (2002)

"The grievous truth of what was done to these people, rather than for them, hits viewers hard in the film's unforgettable conclusion...."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Splat
C

The Rainmaker (1997)

"The overbearing soundtrack, unimaginative cinematography, and indulgently tear-jerking ending ... this all adds up to a surprisingly derivative movie from Coppola."

Jeffrey Overstreet

The Rapture (1991)

Tomato
B+

Ray (2004)

"In spite of Foxx's impressive work, we barely scratch the surface of Ray Charles' interior life."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Splat
D

Red Dragon (2002)

"Hopkins should know better than to lessen the impact of these performances with redundant encores."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Splat
C

Reign of Fire (2002)

"While the dragons come out blazing, the rest of the movie is blowing smoke."

Jeffrey Overstreet

The Return (2004)

J. Robert Parks

Tomato
A

The Return (2004)

"Like each episode of Kieslowski's Decalogue, The Return is a small but potent story. It leads us to ask: Is it ever enough to just 'trust and obey'?"

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
A

Ride with the Devil (1999)

"This isn't the usual Civil War tale of learning to respect a man regardless of his race.... It's about how true freedom comes from love, from respect, and from self-sacrifice."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
A-

The Road (2009)

"The Road prompts us to treat each other with kindness and to savor 'small graces.' ... Can we carry the light and heat of grace when survival demands that we carry a loaded gun? That is the question."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
A

The Road Home (2001)

"For the way it gave me room to ponder, for the gift of its colors, and for the delicate performance by Zhang Ziyi... it's one of my favorite films of 2001."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
B

Road to Perdition (2002)

"A simple parable, starkly outlined, with talented actors shading these sketches with wisdom and detail."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
A-

Rob Roy (1995)

"In their devotion, fiery love scenes, and mutual respect, Neeson and Lange have made marriage more appealing and admirable than any movie has in years."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
B

Roger Dodger (2002)

"Some have condemned this film for 'filthy content.' That's like condemning a hospital for being a place of disease. Kidd deals with 'filth' the way a surgeon treats a tumor."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
A

The Rookie (2002)

"The Rookie is one of those rare, wonderful 'formula' films that ... favors understatement over exaggeration, subtlety over sentimentality."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Ron Reed

Tomato
A+

A Room with a View (1986)

"James Ivory directs this gentle, poetic, comic film with grace and passion for its characters in this adaptation of the E.M. Forster novel."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
A

The Royal Tenenbaums (2001)

"You can tell Anderson loves this family, as screwed-up as they are. Because he does, we come to love them too. ... If there's hope for the Tenenbaums, there's hope for all."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
B+

Rushmore (1998)

"... it strikes a tone that will remind audiences of The Graduate. It may even be a better film ... it goes a step further to give the dark cloud a silver lining."

Jeffrey Overstreet

Tomato
B+

Russian Ark (2002)

"It’s a rich, complex, and mystery-filled journey through Russian art and history."

Jeffrey Overstreet
