Rating Title Year Quote Author

Tomato
3.5/4

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007)

"The hoods of the train robbers remind us of children's Halloween costumes, which adds to the impression that this is a movie populated by dead men too stubborn to give up the ghost."

John Beifuss

Tomato
3.5/4

The Assassination of Richard Nixon (2004)

"Bicke's name is a nod to Travis Bickle, but with his creepy mustache and discount-rack suit, Bicke more closely resembles a later Scorsese-De Niro lunatic, Rupert Pupkin..."

John Beifuss

Splat
2.5/4

Astro Boy (2009)

"It may creep some people out -- parents more than children, no doubt."

John Beifuss

Splat
'2.5/4'

Asylum (2005)

"A sort of perverse update of an overwrought Barbara Stanwyck-Bette Davis melodrama..."

John Beifuss

Tomato
3/4

Atonement (2007)

"The rat-a-tat-tat of a typewriter strafes the soundtrack repeatedly to remind us of the power of storytelling and to suggest that words can hit like bullets."

John Beifuss

Tomato
3/4

Australia (2008)

"Kitsch and cliche drive the story, but the faces and locations are stunning -- when the movie's over, you feel like you've been somewhere and seen something."

John Beifuss

Tomato
4/4

Avatar (2009)

"Works as both a socially conscious Western update and as a true SF film, revealing the influences of such fine genre writers as Philip Jose Farmer, Larry Niven and especially Edgar Rice Burroughs (the 'John Carter of Mars' series)."

John Beifuss

Splat
2/4

Avenue Montaigne (2007)

"Something like 'Love Actually,' in Gallic."

John Beifuss

Tomato
3/4

The Aviator (2004)

"Joins 'Goodfellas,' 'Casino' and 'Gangs of New York' in what could be called Scorsese's 'American History' series of epics about fatally flawed, even criminal visionaries..."

John Beifuss

Tomato
3.5/4

Away From Her (2007)

"Probes those two impossible and sometimes incompatible organs -- the human heart and the human brain -- with a scientist's curiosity and a poet's empathy."

John Beifuss

Tomato
2.5/4

Away We Go (2009)

"This episodic kook's tour might have worked better as a novel; the dialogue wouldn't seem so arch if we were permitted to 'act' it in our heads, and the monologues would seem more natural on a printed page, where words are required to fill the blankness."

John Beifuss
