Face Off (1997) |
"The story is completely nuts, the characters bigger than life ..." |
Chris Hicks |
Splat 2/4 |
Facing the Giants (2006) |
"In a season in which Invincible and Gridiron Gang already have laid claim to the title of inspirational football movie, this looks like an also-ran." |
Jeff Vice |
Splat 2/4 |
Facing Windows (2003) |
"A shallow melodrama that seems more suited to daytime television or one of those Lifetime cable network movies." |
Jeff Vice |
Splat 2/4 |
Factory Girl (2007) |
"Say what you will about Andy Warhol's movies -- they may have been boring, but at least they weren't as dull as as Factory Girl." |

Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004) |
"There's no question that the film's stances toward American foreign policy and the current U.S. president are inflammatory. However, some of the ideas presented may give you room for pause." |
Jeff Vice |
Splat 2/4 |
Failure to Launch (2006) |
"The film's hit-to-miss joke ratio isn't as favorable as you might wish." |
Jeff Vice |

Faithless (2001) |
"There's a real emotional heft to it, and the performances are superb." |
Jeff Vice |
Splat 2/4 |
The Fall (2008) |
"A rather messy mix of fantasy, goofy humor and visually arresting, sometimes distracting costume and set designs." |
Jeff Vice |
Splat 2/4 |
Fallen (1998) |
"Despite stylish direction and some strong performances, the film ultimately becomes just another formulaic thriller -- and one with a very disappointing ending." |
Jeff Vice |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Fallen Angels (Hong Kong) (1996) |
"It has a life of its own, thanks to Wong's over-the-top blend of John Woo-like violence and almost surreal humor." |

Splat 2.5/4 |
Family Law (2006) |
"Drastically overplotted and overwritten and could have used some editing to make it a tighter, more modest character piece." |
Jeff Vice |
Splat |
The Family Man (2000) |
"The more 'subtle' and 'understated' scenes are overplayed, and Cage goes so over the top that he seems to be acting in a completely different movie." |
Jeff Vice |
Splat 2.5/4 |
The Family Stone (2005) |
"The film ping-pongs between wacky comedy and heavy drama, and it is so heavy on plot and character that it takes on a sitcomlike quality." |

Fantasia (1940) |

Fantasia 2000 (1999) |
"When the shorts are good, they are very, very good, particularly those in which the animators actually try to tell a story." |
Jeff Vice |

Fantastic Four (2005) |
"It's sporadically entertaining but never amounts to more than Mediocre Four." |
Jeff Vice |

The Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007) |
"The movie plays out like a particularly unfunny, dysfunctional family sitcom and features even less action than its predecessor." |
Jeff Vice |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009) |
"This is certainly the funniest animated feature so far this year, as well as one of the most sly ones to boot. (But be warned that it's not really a kids movie. There is some potentially upsetting material and imagery.)" |

The Fast and the Furious (2001) |
"See if you can keep a straight face through all of the howlingly bad dialogue, the ludicrous plot holes you could drive a semitruck through and the Z-grade acting." |

Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! (1965) |
"The shoestring production values are so weak, the story is so lame and the acting is so bad that there's no mistaking this Pussycat for anything but what it is - a turkey." |

Fat Albert (2004) |
"As with other live-action films inspired by Saturday-morning cartoons, this family-friendly comedy just isn't animated enough." |
