Splat 1/4 |
B.A.P.S. (1997) |
"Badly timed sight gags, weak one-liners, incessant music videos and sloppy sentiment are the order of the day. The stars throw themselves into it, but to no avail." |
Chris Hicks |
Tomato 3/4 |
Baadasssss! (2004) |
"It succeeds in one very important aspect: It makes you want to see the original movie that spawned it." |
Jeff Vice |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
The Baader Meinhof Complex (2009) |
"It does take awhile for the plot to really kick into gear. Yet the discussion of terrorist morality is interesting, and there are some very tense sequences." |

Babe (1995) |

Babel (2006) |
"The film is not always successful at doing so, and not all of the plot lines work as well as others. But there are strong performances and an intriguing look at the subject matter." |

Baby Geniuses (1999) |
"Bob Clark's direction has no zing. And for a frantic comedy, there's surprising lack of energy." |
Jeff Vice |
Tomato 3/4 |
Baby Mama (2008) |
"The only reason it works as well as it does -- or that it even works at all -- is because of its star, former SNL head writer Tina Fey, who's really turning into an endearing comic performer." |

The Bachelor (1999) |
"It's too early to tell whether movie comedies will be the right forte for Chris O'Donnell, but The Bachelor suggests that he might not want to eliminate his other acting options just yet." |
Jeff Vice |
Splat |
Back to the Future Part II (1989) |
"Has the spirit, but it lacks the heart of the original film, and more importantly, much of the humor." |
Chris Hicks |
Tomato |
Back to the Future Part III (1990) |
"The bad news may be that it's all quite predictable, but the good news is that it doesn't matter." |
Chris Hicks |
Splat |
Backbeat (1994) |
"hen Stu begins his relationship with Astrid, the film begins to lose its way, partly because it sinks into bathos and partly because Lee never captures the character. And we're talking about the bulk of the movie." |

Bad Boys (1995) |
"The entire film is filled with headache-inducing closeups, chaotic camera moves and quick edits." |

Bad Boys II (2003) |
"If Bad Boys II had a secondary title, it would be Hurl Harbor; it's that sickening." |

Bad Company (2002) |
"Despite the presence of some talented people, the latest Bruckheimer production doesn't even come close to matching the somewhat sketchy Rush Hour films for thrills and laughs." |

Bad Lieutenant (1992) |
"Bad Lieutenant is surface stuff all the way, with Kietel's no-holds-barred performance being the only element of worth. It is quite an acting turn but hardly enough to save the picture." |

Tomato 3/4 |
Bad News Bears (2005) |
"If you can stand the assault on your senses, you may discover that there's a good message underneath (one about not excluding people based on supposed 'handicaps'), and Thornton gets off some very funny one-liners." |
Jeff Vice |
Tomato 3/4 |
Bad Santa (2003) |
"For those who can take the constant assault on their senses and sensibilities, this grimy, unsavory movie is also one of the funnier holiday comedies to come along." |
Jeff Vice |
Splat 2/4 |
Bag Boy (2008) |
"Bag Boy, the latest film produced and released by the once-proud National Lampoon organization, was shot and set in Utah. Thankfully, it won't be seen by enough audiences to damage the state's reputation." |
Jeff Vice |
Tomato 3/4 |
Baghead (2008) |
"Just when you think the film is about to zig, it zags and heads another direction. And it's smart enough to cut things short before it wears out its welcome and before it gets too predictable." |
Jeff Vice |
Splat |
Bait (2000) |
"Bait has a real vicious streak that even all of Foxx's charm and one-liners can't overcome." |

Ballets Russes (2005) |
"Those who are not as knowledgeable about the subject may still enjoy the movie, which is given a boost by each of the profiled dancers having a good sense of humor." |
Jeff Vice |
Splat 2/4 |
Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever (2002) |
"In addition to sporting one of the worst titles in recent cinematic history, Ballistic: Ecks Vs. Sever also features terrible, banal dialogue; convenient, hole-ridden plotting; superficial characters and a rather dull, unimaginative car chase." |
Jeff Vice |

Balls of Fury (2007) |
"It's clear that Balls of Fury is trying to be dumb-funny... But Balls of Fury -- is much dumber than it is funny." |

Balseros (2002) |
"Focuses its attention on telling a series of individual, human stories, refreshingly leaving the history lessons for the classroom." |

Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress (2005) |
"The real star here is the Chinese landscape, which is lush and inviting. Cinematographer Jean-Marie Dreujou and his crews have done a good job of capturing its beauty." |
Jeff Vice |
Splat 2/4 |
Bamako (2006) |
"A clumsy, talk-heavy and crushingly heavy-handed hybrid. While it may have the best of intentions, Bamako is sometimes hard to watch." |

The Bank Job (2008) |
"Ultimately, we're not really interested in seeing whether there are any happy endings for any of these people." |

Baptists at our BBQ (2006) |
"A punchier script with more quips certainly would have helped Baptists become more than merely a mild diversion, and maybe more than just a local sensation." |

Baraka (1994) |
"Sweeping, jarring and mesmerizing -- not to mention mind-blowing, if I may indulge a '60s phrase." |
Chris Hicks |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Baran (2002) |
"Captivates and shows how a skillful filmmaker can impart a message without bludgeoning the audience over the head." |
Jeff Vice |
Splat 0/4 |
Barb Wire (1996) |
"There's something sad about Lee purposely sculpting her breasts to resemble basketballs, then parading around topless or nearly topless for most of the film, while her character is supposed to comically strike a blow for feminism." |
Chris Hicks |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
The Barbarian Invasions (2003) |
"One of those rare movie sequels that's actually better than its predecessor." |
