Tomato 3.5/4	O'Horten (2009)	"As an old man, Horten is a rare movie hero, but the director reminds us that other things are more ancient; in one scene, Horten hefts a meteorite that predates the sun, and in another scene, Strindberg is quoted: 'In due time, even the stars must fall.'"	John Beifuss
Tomato 3/4	Observe and Report (2009)	"It's a comedy with a foot on the neck of the Zeitgeist, and it's this pressure on our trachea that crushes the laughter in our throats."	John Beifuss
Tomato 2.5/4	Obsessed (2009)	"Another movie that demonstrates it's bad feng shui to place a glass coffee table beneath a chandelier beneath an attic that can't even support the weight of a blond wearing little more than the whipped-cream bikini she sported in 'Varsity Blues.'"	John Beifuss
Tomato 2.5/4	Ocean's Twelve (2004)	"The real heist here is Soderbergh's: The director has hijacked the caper film that viewers expect and replaced it with what can only be called a Steven Soderbergh movie."	John Beifuss
Tomato 3.5/4	Off the Map (2005)	"It's hard not to like a movie in which a mother tells her daughter: 'Come help me finish skinning the bear, and we'll have a picnic.'"	John Beifuss
Tomato 3.5/4	Offside (2006)	"A protest film that disarms the opposition with a feather, not a cudgel..."	John Beifuss
Splat 2/4	Old Dogs (2009)	"Add scary music, and some scenes could come straight from a horror movie, with no need for re-editing, as when Williams is trapped in a tanning booth, or when Williams slams a car trunk's lid onto a woman's arms, like Terry O'Quinn did in 'Stepfather 2.'"	John Beifuss
Tomato 3.5/4	Oldboy (2005)	"The hero of this Kafkaesque nightmare could be anybody who feels abused, raging against fate or God and discovering only absurdity and more horror."	John Beifuss
Splat 2/4	The Omen (2006)	"For decapitation completists only."	John Beifuss
Tomato 3/4	Once (2007)	"May appeal especially to romantic young people who can develop crushes on the lead characters in tandem with the smittenness that emerges onscreen."	John Beifuss
Tomato 3.5/4	Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003)	"When Johnny Depp said America was 'like a dumb puppy that has big teeth that can bite and hurt you,' he may have been remembering his approach to his role here as a playfully dangerous CIA agent..."	John Beifuss
Tomato	Once Upon a Time in the West (1969)	"A Leone masterpiece: its deep-focus panoramas, looming widescreen closeups and brilliant sound design are as distinctive as the ballistic signature of a bullet."	John Beifuss
Splat 2/4	One Missed Call (2008)	"As Lead Belly might sing, to the tune of 'One Meat Ball': 'You get no thrills/ From One Missed Call...'"	John Beifuss
Tomato 3.5/4	Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior (2005)	"About the only CGI illusion occurs when the bad guy exhales cigarette smoke through the blowhole of his tracheotomy. But Pinkaew isn't blowing smoke: this is the real deal."	John Beifuss
Tomato 3/4	Only the Strong Survive (2003)	"Invaluable as a record of its subjects (including the late, great Rufus Thomas), but it doesn't cohere as a feature..."	John Beifuss
Tomato 2.5/4	Open Season (2006)	"The stylized character design is witty and pleasing; these creatures not only look but move funny."	John Beifuss
Tomato 2.5/4	Open Water (2004)	"This example of minimalist stunt filmmaking doesn't add up to much, but the filmmakers deserve credit for their diabolically simple, inexpensive and effective premise..."	John Beifuss
Tomato 2.5/4	Orphan (2009)	"Distinguished by a loony plot twist and by its sympathetic treatment of characters..."	John Beifuss
Tomato 3/4	The Orphanage (2007)	"Goes for the heart as well as the throat..."	John Beifuss
Tomato 3/4	Osama (2003)	"Gives real insight into a part of the world that likely will dominate our newscasts and newspapers for years to come..."	John Beifuss
Tomato 3/4	Out of Time (2003)	"Skillful, straight-ahead storytelling..."	John Beifuss
Tomato 2.5/4	Over the Hedge (2006)	"Depicts a woodland war of insurgency against suburbia... until violent slapstick beats the promising premise into submission."	John Beifuss
Tomato 3.5/4	Owning Mahowny (2003)	"When Hoffman steps from the shower, the blond spitcurl plastered to his forehead increases his resemblance to a big, pathetic Kewpie doll. He's simultaneously lovable and repulsive."	John Beifuss
