The Machinist (2004) |
"A superior exercise in mood and atmospherics, a drama that springs from a place of deep disturbance." |

Mad Hot Ballroom (2005) |
"This engaging look at New York City school kids who learn ballroom dancing and participate in citywide competitions gains impact from watching kids learning unexpected skills." |

Madagascar (2005) |
"The movie seems a little undernourished in the story department, and attempts to infuse the proceedings with adult-pleasing humor don't always rise to brilliant levels." |

Mafioso (1962) |
"I will say this: If you love mob movies, Mafioso is a must." |

Maid in Manhattan (2002) |
"Doesn't get the job done, running off the limited chemistry created by Ralph Fiennes and Jennifer Lopez." |

Mambo Italiano (2003) |
"The movie seems more interested in splashing stereotypes all over the screen than in uncovering any kind of truth, comic or otherwise." |

Man of the Year (2006) |
"Man of the Year starts out funny -- at least that's the intention -- and then morphs into a kind of paranoid thriller. Neither one of the movie's split personalities is particularly good." |
Robert Denerstein |
Splat C+ |
Man on Fire (2004) |
"Brain Hegeland's script offers a trio of endings, a bit much for a movie that lasts nearly 2 ½ hours." |

Man on the Train (2003) |
"The actors couldn't be more perfect." |

Man Push Cart (2006) |
"Shot in three weeks, Man Push Cart does a fine job of capturing the bitter flavor of Ahmad's life." |

The Man Without a Past (2003) |
"The director has found a way to make an amusing fable about the costs and possibilities of freedom." |

The Manchurian Candidate (2004) |
"Crisp pacing, an agitated sense of an unraveling reality and a uniformly strong cast earn this edition of The Manchurian Candidate a vote of recommendation." |

Manderlay (2006) |
"Manderlay comes off as little more than a droning, embittered curiosity." |

March of the Penguins (2005) |
"An amazingly photographed and inescapably fascinating documentary about the life and struggles of emperor penguins." |

Maria Full of Grace (2004) |
"A keenly observed and compelling movie that will open your eyes to a world of trouble and sorrow." |

Marie Antoinette (2006) |
"By the end, the sad, preposterous emptiness of the court has overtaken the movie and turned it from a potentially intriguing drama into a forlorn, muzzy daydream." |

Masked and Anonymous (2003) |
"The movie qualifies as a catastrophic mess, a chaotic celebration of Dylan's mysterious image as singer, artist and (judging by this movie) near-catatonic." |
Robert Denerstein |
Tomato B+ |
Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003) |
"Scrupulously detailed and handsomely mounted, Master and Commander sails across the screen like a well-built ship, seaworthy and stolid." |
Robert Denerstein |

The Matador (2005) |
"This edgy little movie may not cut as sharply as a killer's knife, but it carves out a very diverting niche all the same." |
Robert Denerstein |
Tomato A- |
Match Point (2005) |
"The combination of alluring atmosphere and ambition makes Match Point one of Allen's most involving movies in years." |

The Matrix Revolutions (2003) |
"During the movie's laborious opening act, you may wonder whether the series itself has escaped such an imperative. Fortunately, Part Three picks up as it goes along." |

Mean Creek (2004) |
"I never lived a story anything like this, but I understand the emotional life of this film -- and I'm betting you will, too." |

Mean Girls (2004) |
"Waters tries for a tone that mixes dark humor and emotional realism, and he often finds it." |

The Medallion (2003) |
"Chan's career probably won't require any magic restoration after The Medallion, but this late-summer concoction lacks sufficient kick to please Chan's most ardent fans." |

Meet the Fockers (2004) |
"Meet the Fockers doesn't have the shabby feel of some faltering movies, but its repetitive gags and toilet humor take much of the luster off the Focker-Byrnes wedding." |

Meet the Robinsons (2007) |
"It probably won't leave you feeling cheated, but its futuristic bric-a-brac and brainy young hero may not make your spirits soar, either." |

Melinda and Melinda (2005) |
"A movie that too often is dull and duller, an exercise posing as a full-blown drama. Or is it posing as a comedy?" |

Memoirs of a Geisha (2005) |
"Memoirs of a Geisha, the big-screen adaptation of Arthur Golden's best-selling novel, has a lesson to teach: Designing a movie isn't the same as directing one." |

Metallica: Some Kind of Monster (2004) |
"By the time this fascinating two-hour- and-20-minute film ends, you'll have seen the group rise from the ashes of its own massive discontent." |

Miami Vice (2006) |
"Miami Vice exudes the kind of gritty life we expect, so much so that you might argue that neither Crockett nor Tubbs deserves to be called a main character; Mann reserves that role for crime itself." |
