Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker (2006) |
"Director Sax is unable to generate much tension in the action scenes, even rendering a nice bit of Donnie Yen martial arts choreography incomprehensible." |

Alexander (2004) |
"The battle scenes are bloody wonderful, but the rest of it plays out like a badly edited three-hour History Channel bio featuring pretty people." |

Alfie (2004) |
"Don't fight the Law, and dig into this adorable jaunt." |

Tomato A |
Alien (1979) |
"It's all good, and just getting to see this freakin' frightening and visually stimulating flick on a big screen (especially for those who've never seen it in a theater) makes this well worth a trip to your homeworld multiplex." |
|
Tomato |
Alien Resurrection (1997) |
"A Gothic chasm of mayhem" |
|

Alien vs. Predator (2004) |
"Sure, some of the smackdowns look sweet and keep the action moving, but the flick just gets more and more dumb as the body count adds up." |

Alien: The Director's Cut (2003) |

Aliens in the Attic (2009) |
"A surprisingly likable execution of a very thin premise" |
Luke Y. Thompson |
Tomato B+ |
Aliens of the Deep (2005) |
"Now, not much gets answered, and some of the conclusions take a Hollywood imagination to go there, but it's sure fun to ride shotgun and see Cameron play with his expensive toys -- all in the name of research." |

All About Lily Chou-Chou (2002) |
"At an indulgent two and a half hours, the film plays like a poetry reading that drags on too long." |
|
Tomato |
All About My Mother (1999) |
"A richly satisfying film that uplifts with humor as it tugs at the heartstrings." |

All Over Me (1997) |
"A walk on the mild side." |

All Over the Guy (2001) |
"Thinks it's onto something new by going gay on the static 'boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy gets girl' formula. It's not." |
|
Splat C |
All The King's Men (2006) |
"Seems like every year around this time, a group of serious, mostly British actors decide to affect exaggerated Southern accents and don period costumes, in the service of making some popular novel look ridiculously affected onscreen." |

All the Pretty Horses (2000) |
"Little of it gels." |

All the Queen's Men (2002) |
"This ostensibly comedic film contains absolutely no funny moments whatsoever and is basically a war flick that fails to provide any sense of urgency, suspense or concern for the good guys' well-being." |
|
Tomato B+ |
All the Real Girls (2003) |
"Green ... makes messy poetry out of life's throwaway moments and all the things that other filmmakers might cut away from." |

Almost Famous (2000) |

Almost Peaceful (2004) |
"An unassuming, dignified and deeply resonant experience." |

Alone in the Dark (2005) |
"So poorly built, so horribly acted and so sloppily stitched together that it's not even at the straight- to-DVD level." |
|
Splat |
Along Came a Spider (2001) |
"This Spider has little bite and offers nothing new for fans of suspense-detective dramas." |

Splat C |
Along Came Polly (2004) |
"Feels like it was cut from a bunch of other junk and pasted back together in a studio boardroom." |
|
Tomato B+ |
Alpha Dog (2007) |
"Aside from an excess of female hysterics, there is solid acting throughout. (Accused of tweaking at work, Foster's Jake pulls off a tantrum on the level of Spud's job interview in Trainspotting.)" |
Skylaire Alfvegren |

Alvin and the Chipmunks (2007) |
"Sure, the jokes are obvious, the plot's a little corny -- but c'mon, it's a movie about talking chipmunks." |

Amadeus (1984) |
"It may be true, as Salieri says, that 'mediocrity is everywhere'--but not in this classic composition." |
|
Tomato B |
Amandla: A Revolution in Four-Part Harmony (2003) |
"In form, Amandla! is a standard-issue history-lesson documentary. But it's also a vital and moving one, too." |

An Amazing Couple (2002) |
"The movie threatens to devolve into chaos, but director Belvaux manages to keep his plates spinning and his own splintered version of romantic farce chugging along." |
|

Amelia (2009) |
"we're treated to little more than generic montages and lots of '30s-style news reels. Lots and lots of news reels." |

Amelie (2001) |
"It may be all the rage in France, but the story of 23-year-old pixie-ish Parisian waitress Amélie translates to any language." |

Tomato A- |
America's Heart and Soul (2004) |
"Despite the patriotic title, this portrait of ordinary Americans, who are extraordinary in some way, never gets in your face with flag-waving propaganda." |
|
Tomato |
America's Sweethearts (2001) |
"The flick's got enough charming moments to offer a sweet, if not great, time." |
|
Splat |
American Adobo (2002) |
"Too much clunky dialog in mawkish situations dissolve this flick into shrill histrionics." |

American Chai (2002) |
"This worldly dramedy can't overcome its jolting amateur vibe." |

American Desi (2001) |
"At times the movie plays out like a silly sitcom, but with the realistic and witty writing lightly poking fun at tradition, Desi's cute story can't help but shine through." |
|
Tomato B |
American Dreamz (2006) |
"The entire cast -- including Dennis Quaid and Mandy Moore -- is pitch-perfect, nailing hilarious one-liners with shades of irony." |
