Tomato 5/5 |
Across the Universe (2007) |
"Julie Taymor's love-it-or-hate-it musical is hugely ambitious but it works brilliantly, thanks to strong performances, a fantastic script, terrifically integrated songs and Taymor's inspired direction." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 3/5 |
Adam (2009) |
"Adam remains watchable thanks to credible performances from its two leads, but it fails to satisfy on an emotional level and could have been a lot better." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 4/5 |
Adaptation (2002) |
"A brilliantly acted, extremely clever (perhaps too clever), multi-layered film that will repay several viewings." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 4/5 |
Adoration (2009) |
"Typically dense and complex drama from Atom Egoyan that's as satisfying as completing a jigsaw puzzle." |
Matthew Turner |

Tomato 4/5 |
Afterschool (2009) |
"The excellent script touches fascinating themes (notably the abject hypocrisy of the school staff) and also manages to convey a moment of pure emotional devastation more acutely than any number of Hollywood teen flicks." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 3/5 |
Agent Cody Banks (2003) |
"Muniz is an extremely likeable actor and the fact that Banks is meant to be pathologically shy around girls offers a handy point of identification for its target audience." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 5/5 |
Air Guitar Nation (2007) |
"Hugely entertaining, frequently hilarious documentary with colourful, warm-hearted characters and an infectious energy that'll send you bouncing out of the cinema with a goofy grin on your face." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 3/5 |
Akeelah and the Bee (2006) |
"This isn't a patch on Spellbound ... but its strong performances and its skilful deployment of the finest, hand-picked cliches ensures that it remains enjoyable throughout." |

Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker (2006) |
"The colourful cast have a lot of fun with their slightly cartoonish roles, particularly Bill Nighy and Missi Pyle as Sayle's henchwoman." |

Alien (1979) |
"A welcome re-release for Scott’s classic sci-fi horror, with a couple of directorial tweaks for good measure." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 3/5 |
Alien Autopsy (2006) |
"This is never less than watchable, but it can't decide whether it wants to be a comedy or a drama and ends up failing as both." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 3/5 |
Alien vs. Predator (2004) |
"Despite (or perhaps because of) some laughably bad moments, this is surprisingly enjoyable." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 3/5 |
Aliens in the Attic (2009) |
"Watchable family sci-fi comedy with at least one hilarious and rather brilliant set-piece, but there's never really any sense of danger or jeopardy so it's not quite as exciting as it should have been." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 4/5 |
All the Boys Love Mandy Lane (2009) |
"Engaging, sharply acted slasher movie that's a cut above the usual rubbish, thanks to a decent script and impressive direction by Jonathan Levine." |

Along Came Polly (2004) |
"Though the cast are excellent and there are several funny scenes, the film doesn’t quite work, frequently relying too much on gross-out humour and not enough on a decent script." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 4/5 |
Alpha Dog (2007) |
"Emotionally engaging, impressively directed and frequently tense drama with strong performances from a terrific ensemble cast." |

Amelia (2009) |
"Amelia is never less than watchable thanks to gorgeous cinematography and strong performances but the script's insistence on playing it safe prevents it from becoming the film it could have been." |

American Gangster (2007) |
"American Gangster tells a fascinating story with impeccable production design and two powerhouse performances, but Ridley Scott is no Scorsese and the film never really comes together." |

American Teen (2008) |
"A hugely enjoyable documentary with likeable characters and familiar, but no less compelling storylines, though you do wonder just how much of it was staged for the cameras." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 3/5 |
The Amityville Horror (2005) |
"Reynolds is well cast in the lead - it's genuinely upsetting as the house starts to chip away at his Nice Guy persona. He also spends a huge amount of the film either half-naked or dripping wet, if you like that sort of thing.

Amores Perros (2001) |
