G (2002) |
"Everyone in this movie is getting it on with someone else behind their lover's back, but only the women have to end up suffering for it. Nice, right?" |

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009) |
"This may be the first movie to boast digital effects that actually look less realistic than the graphics in its own tie-in video game." |

Gabbeh (1996) |
"Poetic and evocative, but too short at 75 minutes to unroll enough of a story, this gentle film nonetheless revels in the colors and everyday wonders of life." |
|

Galaxy Quest (1999) |
"Star Trek fans will be thrilled with this goof on the classic '60s sci-fi series." |

Game 6 (2006) |
"Clangs with the ripely overwritten dialogue of award-winning novelist Don DeLillo. And that dialogue, coupled with a go-nowhere script, is this wannabe-likeable indie drama's undoing." |

The Game of Their Lives (2005) |
"Succeeds only occasionally in drumming up drama and inspiration." |

The Game Plan (2007) |
"This innocuous family fare will probably appeal to wee ones who haven't been fed enough of this formula. But I wanted to spit up a little." |

Gamer (2009) |
"...it's clearly intended as comedy - the two filmmakers play a constant game of "can you top this" in a manner that suggests they dared one another to make each scene loonier (and more solidly R-rated) than the last." |

Games People Play: New York (2004) |
"Interminable exploitation-fest that doesn't even come close to the worst of this stuff on TV." |

Gangs of New York (2002) |
"Wavers between being about the big picture and a character study -- only to get lost like so many huddled masses." |
|
Tomato B |
Gangster No. 1 (2002) |
"Even though the story's a bit scattered, Gangster energetically evokes the hip '60s with groovy split-screen effects and a swinging soundtrack." |
|

Garage Days (2003) |
"While Garage Days tries a bit too hard to be cool and slips into a darker place than you might expect, you can tell that everyone here is having a good time." |
|
Tomato B+ |
Garcon Stupide (2006) |
"Stupide is smart...and sweet, too." |
|
Tomato A |
Garden State (2004) |
"Any flaws are offset by a genuinely dark sense of humor, understated performances and a rejection of tidy conclusions." |

Garfield the Movie (2004) |
"If you're old enough to read the cartoon, then you're too old for the movie." |

Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties (2006) |
"Cat fanciers and five-year-olds will have a great time, but everyone else will likely find themselves wishing they'd buried this one in the litter box." |
|

Gasoline (2001) |
"A welcome slice of moodiness in a film season hell-bent on happiness at all costs." |
|

The General's Daughter (1999) |
"Action-packed and peppered with great dialogue and powerhouse acting, this genre flick stands a notch above the rest!" |

Gentlemen Broncos (2009) |
"...laden with vomit, turd, and genitalia jokes that feel like they were written by a ten-year-old who just heard the word "nads" for the first time." |

George A. Romero's Land of the Dead (2005) |
"It's still pretty mindless, but, really, what did you expect from a bunch of zombies?" |
|
Tomato B- |
Georgia Rule (2007) |
"It's an honest hard look at a very messy family, with a fantastic cast. The movie threatens to lose its way -- and its audience -- but ends up right where it should by the last scene." |
Dezhda Gaubert |
Tomato B+ |
Gerry (2003) |
"There's hardly any dialogue, some wonderfully crafted scenes and miles and miles of hypnotic desert imagery, vast landscapes and a dreadfully poetic score." |

Get Carter (2000) |
"It's the insipid dialogue and inane direction that sets this film on a rocky path." |
|
Tomato |
Get Over It (2001) |
"Get Over It is a perfectly acceptable teen date movie that manages to amuse most of the way through." |
|
Tomato B |
Get Rich or Die Tryin' (2005) |
"Classy director Jim Sheridan steadily gets it all in and keeps it as real as the director of movies like My Left Foot can." |
|
Splat C |
Get Smart (2008) |
"Despite its classic-TV pedigree, Get Smart is just another big, dumb summer movie and should have heeded its title's advice." |
Matt Stevens |
Tomato B |
The Ghost and the Darkness (1996) |
"A familiar tale, well told." |
|
Tomato |
Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai (1999) |
"There's enough excitement in this dark, violent saga of a modern samurai at war with a family of aging Jersey gangsters to attract more than the art house crowd." |
|
Tomato B |
Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence (2004) |
"Philosophy's never looked so cool." |
|

Ghost Rider (2007) |
"Seriously, people, if you're going to go see a movie you know is about a biker with a flaming skull and magic chains, you forfeit the right to complain about how the plot isn't logical or realistic." |

Ghost Ship (2002) |
"Abandon ship if you prefer psychological thrills to cheap-shot scares." |
|

Ghost Town (2008) |
"Derailed by a romantic subplot, Ghost Town fails to make use of the dead as proper comedic fodder." |
Skylaire Alfvegren |
Tomato |
Ghost World (2001) |
"Its moments of stylish cinematography and sarcastic humor give Ghost World a spirit that's difficult to resist." |

Ghostbusters (1984) |
"Aykroyd Talks Ghostbusters 3" |

Ghostlight (2004) |
"It's a good-hearted dream of a film made all the more fascinating by virtue of its willful weirdness." |
|
Tomato B- |
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past (2009) |
"Conor has the flamboyant confidence of a matador, but McConaughey draws out the right amount of sleaze and tenderness to transform Conor from a bullfighter to a rodeo clown." |

"Informative -- and entertaining -- documentary." |

Giant (1956) |
"Oil drilling and cattle ranching never seemed so glamorous, and the performances by Dean, Taylor, Hudson, et al, remind us of the days when 'movie star' wasn't a dirty phrase." |
|

The Gift (2001) |
"Suspense-horror lovers who felt What Lies Beneath didn't quite deliver will be more than happy to open this Gift." |

Gigantic (A Tale of Two Johns) (2003) |
"A documentary that's as heavy on laughs as it is on humble pie." |

Gigli (2003) |
"While it's not a total train wreck, this Bennifer comedy is bad for many reasons." |
|

The Gingerbread Man (1998) |
"There oughtta be a law against any more of John Grisham's tales of lust, deceit and murder involving lawyers." |
|
Tomato B+ |
The Girl Next Door (2004) |
"With its frankness toward sex, original storyline and the natural charisma and comedic timing of Hirsch, this rises above your regular teen flick." |
