Waitress (2007) |
"Look, Waitress is no groundbreaker, and it's not likely to change anyone's life. But it provides a showcase for Russell, who knows how to make the most of it." |

Walk the Line (2005) |
"Walk the Line leaves you feeling an unusual sensation, at least as far as current movies go: You feel as if you've gotten your money's worth when it comes to entertainment and drama." |

Walking Tall (2004) |
"The original Walking Tall was about the triumph of an ordinary man over the forces of evil. Near as I could tell, this one's about the triumph of The Rock." |

Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005) |
"Wallace & Gromit strives to be supremely silly, and some of the humor is quite broad, even a touch bawdy." |

War of the Worlds (2005) |
"Much is destroyed in Steven Spielberg's War of the Worlds, but the movie never quite delivers an emotional knockout blow." |

We Don't Live Here Anymore (2004) |

The Weather Man (2005) |
"Framing a movie about an Everyman in such an odd way (Dave's salary is even bigger by the film's end) is only one of several strange calculations made by director Gore Verbinski." |

The Weather Underground (2003) |
"If names such as Bernadine Dohrn, Bill Ayers, Mark Rudd, Naomi Jaffe and Brian Flanagan mean nothing to you, you'll definitely want to see the thought-provoking documentary, The Weather Underground." |

White Chicks (2004) |
"If White Chicks isn't quite up to Some Like It Hot or Tootsie standards (and it's not), it may be because the Wayanses, who also wrote the script, never find a story to support a scattershot collection of jokes." |

Who Killed The Electric Car? (2006) |
"Paine's movie can be a bit repetitious, but whether you regard the story as a footnote to automotive history or as a record of a tragically lost opportunity, you'll find plenty of interesting material here, not to mention some cause for hope." |

The Whole Ten Yards (2004) |
"Ten Yards' collection of sight gags and silliness never gels into anything more than a desperate attempt to wring laughs out of a tapped-out premise." |

Wicker Park (2004) |

The Wild (2006) |
"Small moments of amusement -- and there are some -- can't compensate for either a feeling of familiarity or the sense that we're watching a minor helping of animation rather than a galvanizing movie event." |

William Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice (2004) |

Winter Soldier (1972) |
"Very much a product of its time: It's not an investigative piece; it's a combination of documentary footage, protest, despair and anger." |

Winter Solstice (2005) |
"It's the kind of narrow-gauged drama that either will drive you crazy or absorb you in its low-key rhythms. Mostly, I went along for the ride." |
