Ma Mere (2005) |
"It winds up making incest look absurdly swank." |
Owen Gleiberman |
Tomato B+ |
Macbeth (2007) |
"For kinks, the three witches are naughty rave-teens. And for kicks, the cast, led by Sam Worthington, is consciously chosen for its beauty, each player a brawling rock star in his own mind." |

Macbeth (Restored Version) (1948) |

The Machinist (2004) |

Mad Hot Ballroom (2005) |

Mad Money (2008) |
"Mad Money, a sisters-in-greed heist comedy that's like Fun With Dick and Jane crossed with Set It Off, may be a formula flick, but as directed by Callie Khouri, it gives you a good, infectious dose of its heroines' money fe" |

Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa (2008) |
"Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa is pretty tame, but it knows how to keep its own turf tidy." |

Made (2001) |
"Made is little more than a rambling chain of combative buddy mishaps, but the interplay between Vaughn and Favreau, who does great double takes of thrusting chin frustration, spins you through the weak patches." |

Made of Honor (2008) |
"Made of Honor is a nice cookie-cutter comedy, no more and no less, but Dempsey, with his relaxed charm, and Monaghan, with her soft and peachy sensual spark, rise to the challenge of making friendship look like the wellspring of true love." |
Owen Gleiberman |

Madea's Family Reunion (2006) |
"Let's not sell Tyler Perry short. As the vinegar-witted Madea, he's a drag performer of testy charm, but in his overlit patchwork way he's also making the most primal women's pictures since Joan Crawford flexed her shoulder pads." |

Madison (2005) |

Mafioso (1962) |

The Magdalene Sisters (2003) |
"The Magdalene Asylums really existed, and Mullan has captured their pious horror with a humanity that burns away any hint of exploitation." |

Magnificent Desolation: Walking on the Moon 3D (2005) |
"Aims for the junior stargazer in a release coinciding with NASA's new moon-by-2018 initiative. The movie is unmistakably a pitch, and an honorable one." |

The Maid (2009) |

Mambo Italiano (2003) |

The Man (2005) |
"The buddy action comedy is now the megaplex equivalent of an old vaudeville routine. It is shticky, it is beyond predictable, it is such a creaky ritual that one would be hard-pressed to remember when it was actually fun." |

A Man Apart (2003) |

Man on Fire (2004) |
"A coldly violent revenge drama that tarts up scenes of wanton sadism with lush art direction, and a spiritual story that invokes serious struggle and prayer for atmosphere rather than content." |
