Tomato 3/5 |
W. (2008) |
"While it isn't a masterpiece, it's certainly better than most people expected." |
Josh Bell |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Wackness (2008) |
"It's not the world's most original plot, but Levine invests it with warmth and a realistic sense of teenage life." |
Josh Bell |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Wah-Wah (2006) |
"While this is clearly a very personal film for Grant, and he seems to want to tackle some serious issues, his vision is too clouded by nostalgia to be truly compelling." |
Josh Bell |
Splat 2/5 |
Waiting... (2005) |
"Waiting ... borrows so much from Smith's playbook that's it's hard to figure out if McKittrick is paying tribute or stealing." |

Tomato 3.5/5 |
Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005) |
"The humor is sophisticated but sweet, and the clever references are not the only thing about the movie for adults to enjoy." |
Josh Bell |
Splat 2/5 |
Wanted (2008) |
"Empty and condescending and superficial." |
Josh Bell |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Washington Heights (2003) |
"The film has an urgency and assured street-level realism that is rare for any film, let alone one by a first-time director." |
Josh Bell |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Watchmen (2009) |
"Dissatisfying both as an adaptation and as a standalone work." |
Josh Bell |
Tomato 3/5 |
We Don't Live Here Anymore (2004) |
"We Don't Live Here Anymore manages to get at some difficult truths ... but there's a certain distance to it that prevents it from being a truly heart-wrenching film." |
Josh Bell |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Weather Man (2005) |
"It's a downer, sure, but it'll have you smiling all the way to the bottom." |
Josh Bell |
Splat 1.5/5 |
A Wedding for Bella (2001) |
"It may be cold to reject a film so warm, like telling a 5-year-old that his dinosaur painting is terrible, but Martin's not 5 and her film is terrible." |
Josh Bell |
Splat 2/5 |
Weirdsville (2007) |
"Neither as funny nor as serious as it ought to be." |
Josh Bell |
Splat 1.5/5 |
Welcome to Mooseport (2004) |
"Perhaps the blandest movie ever, directed so squarely down the middle of the road that helmer Donald Petrie might as well be painting yellow lines." |
Josh Bell |
Tomato 3/5 |
Wet Dreams (2006) |
"Take out a half-hour, and it'll make a great special on the Travel Channel." |

What Happens in Vegas (2008) |
"The overall sour tone and worn-out feel of the movie overwhelm any positive aspects." |
Josh Bell |
Splat 2.5/5 |
When Did You Last See Your Father? (2008) |
"Tucker keeps things subdued almost to the point of inertia." |
Josh Bell |
Tomato 4/5 |
Where The Truth Lies (2005) |
"... a suspenseful tale based on a novel by Rupert Holmes that nearly nails the genre with graphic sex and realistic dialogue, dusted with near-universal corruption." |
Martin Stein |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Whip It (2009) |
"For a film about a sport that involves lots of pushing, elbowing and bruising, Whip It is just too overwhelmingly nice." |
Josh Bell |
Splat 2/5 |
White Noise (2005) |
"The swipes from pseudo-science and more inventive films serve only to put a thin gloss on the thin plot." |

Splat 2/5 |
Wicker Park (2004) |
"Nothing in the movie is what it appears to be, which is unfortunate since, at the outset at least, what it appears to be is interesting." |
Josh Bell |
Tomato 3/5 |
Wilbur Wants to Kill Himself (2004) |
"Although at times too low-key, Wilbur is a humorous and strangely uplifting film about death and dying." |
Josh Bell |
Splat 2/5 |
The Wild (2006) |
"...the curiously flat animation fails to display much range in the animals' expressions..." |
Michael T. Toole |

Matthew Scott Hunter |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Willard (2003) |
"Glover infuses Willard's relationship with the rats with a perverse sort of sexual energy, and it makes the film that much more disturbing." |
Josh Bell |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Wimbledon (2004) |
"You've seen this movie before." |
Josh Bell |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Wind That Shakes the Barley (2007) |

Without A Paddle (2004) |
"It's as if somebody was telling you about a joke, rather than telling you the actual joke." |
Josh Bell |
Tomato 3/5 |
The Witnesses (2008) |
"A rambling but often affecting account of the early days of the AIDS epidemic." |
Josh Bell |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Wolf Creek (2005) |
"Unlike so many of its slick counterparts, Wolf Creek is genuinely unnerving and sometimes upsetting." |
Josh Bell |
Splat 2/5 |
The Women (2008) |
"Ryan and Bening seem lost, desperate to convey emotions that they can't access, and English only gives them stale power-woman stereotypes to play." |
Josh Bell |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Woodsman (2004) |
"Kassell, aided by Bacon's subtle and effective performance, succeeds in making Walter not only human but also sympathetic." |
Josh Bell |
Tomato 3/5 |
Wordplay (2006) |
"An affable, lightweight documentary about crossword puzzle aficionados." |
Josh Bell |
Splat 2/5 |
World Trade Center (2006) |
"Only the magnitude of the tragedy gives the film dramatic weight ..." |
Mike D'Angelo |
Splat 2.5/5 |
The World's Fastest Indian (2005) |
"The film is so languid that at times you may find yourself wishing that Hopkins would eat someone's liver." |
Josh Bell |
Tomato 3/5 |
World's Greatest Dad (2009) |
"The movie takes a little longer than necessary arriving at the inevitable, somewhat hokey ending, but it's pretty funny along the way." |
Josh Bell |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Wrestler (2008) |
"Like Randy's matches, the movie hits a lot of familiar beats; like Randy himself, it gets the maximum impact out of each one." |
