Hairspray (2007) |
"I would pay to see any film that allows Christopher Walken to dance and in a tux no less." |

Halloween (2007) |
"The original and the remake need to stand alone and apart, and Zombie's film has merits of its own that should be appreciated." |
Beth Accomando |
Splat |
Hancock (2008) |
"I'm willing to give a superhero film some leeway in terms of realism but a film has to remain true to its own inner logic and this one keeps changing the ground rules." |

Tomato |
The Hangover (2009) |
"You could say his new film The Hangover is the Reservoir Dogs of party movies. Reservoir Dogs was a heist film that never shows you the heist, and The Hangover is about a wild night in Vegas that only shows the aftermath." |
Beth Accomando |
Splat |
Hannibal Rising (2007) |
"A ponderous, uninspired portrait of a serial-killer-in-the-making with Webber missing every opportunity to build suspense and deliver chills." |
Beth Accomando |
Tomato |
A Hard Day's Night (1964) |
"The film moves with such joy, humor and fluidity that you can't help getting swept up in the frenzied action." |

Tomato |
Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008) |
"Now only a pot comedy would conceive of turning George W. into a goofy, dare I say even likable pothead who's afraid of his dad and Dick Cheney." |

Tomato |
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) |
"Snape even gets some extended scenes... and is no longer a peripheral eccentric presence but rather he's now showing shades of coloring beyond his dour black." |

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) |
"Harry Potter: Wardrobe for Wizards/Interview with Costume Desinger Jany Temime" |
Beth Accomando |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Haunting (1963) |
"Don't waste your time on the remake. Robert Wise's original film is the one to see and it's still chilling after all these years." |

Hausu |
"Hausu: Clips from Audacious 1970s Japanese Horror Film" |

Heading South (2006) |
"It also boasts another rich performance by Charlotte Rampling who continues to grow more interesting as an actress." |
Beth Accomando |
Tomato |
Hell's Ground (2007) |
"Khan has tapped into that fear to create the masked serial killer for Hell's Ground. That's right. His crazed killer wears a burkha." |
Beth Accomando |
Tomato |
Hellboy (2004) |
"Del Toro and Perlman essentially make you forget that Hellboy's this bizarre creature because Perlman invests him with such humanity. And maybe what makes him most human are his flaws." |

Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008) |
"Web video focusing on the stunts and effects in Guillermo Del Toro's Hellboy II: The Golden Army." |

Tomato |
Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008) |
"...you could say the first film was about Hellboy finding his humanity and the new film is about him finding his place in the world." |
Beth Accomando |
Splat 2/5 |
Hercules (1959) |
"Ab-solutely goofball sword and sandal film. Great cheese factor." |

Tomato 4/5 |

Hitman (2007) |
"Hitman is by no means great filmmaking but as video game adaptations go, it proves mindlessly entertaining and at least it's not irritatingly stupid." |
Beth Accomando |
Tomato |
Hong Kil Dong (1986) |
"I find it fascinating to get this window into North Korea... Seeing these North Korean films you realize that we have more than we might have imagined in common despite the vast political and sometimes cultural differences." |
Beth Accomando |
Tomato 9/10 |
The Host (2007) |
"Imagine Little Miss Sunshine and Alien mixed together and you'll have an inkling of what South Korea's The Host has in store for you." |
Beth Accomando |
Tomato |
Hostel: Part II (2007) |
"Roth is not you're run of the mill schlock horror director. He's smart, and his films are clever works of nastiness." |
Beth Accomando |
Tomato |
Hot Fuzz (2007) |
"A high octane, sweetly appealing, absolutely hilarious cop actioner. I never thought all those elements could be rolled together so brilliantly..." |
Beth Accomando |
Tomato 7/10 |
House of Sand (2005) |
"House of Sand boasts the hypnotic power of its landscape and a pair of powerful and passionate performances by Montenegro and Torres." |
Beth Accomando |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Householder (1962) |
"An early Merchant-Ivory work, fresher than their more recent fare." |
Beth Accomando |
Tomato |
The Hurt Locker (2009) |
"In one sense, The Hurt Locker is an old school war film %u2013 muscular, focused almost exclusively on men in combat, and not interested in politics or making a statement. But the film's also very contemporary." |
