The Yards (2000) |

Tomato A- |
Year of the Dog (2007) |
"I mean no impertinence when I say that as a portrait of love and grief, writer-director Mike White's exceptional film Year of the Dog deserves the same admiration accorded Joan Didion's exceptional memoir The Year of Magical Thinking." |
Lisa Schwarzbaum |
Tomato B+ |
The Year of the Yao (2005) |
"A skillful and winning piece of honest booster portraiture directed by James D. Stern and Adam Del Deo." |
Owen Gleiberman |
Tomato B- |
Year One (2009) |
"Platt, more than anyone, is the soul of the movie, because he makes even the most
primitive perversity sound...well, civilized." |
Owen Gleiberman |
Splat C+ |
Yes (2005) |
"Parse the philosophy behind the spill of words, though, and you'll find intellectual jumble, junk." |
Lisa Schwarzbaum |
Tomato B- |
Yes Man (2008) |
"It has more chuckles than guffaws, maybe because Carrey has always been a comic actor who says yes yes yes. Literalizing that impulse only robs it of surprise." |

Tomato B+ |
The Yes Men (2004) |
"Parody, satire, and pranksterism are all the fashion in creative activism -- at least on the left -- and as masters of the form, the canny, politicized performing artists in the eponymous documentary The Yes Men are the ones to beat." |

Yi Yi (2000) |
"Everywhere in this beautifully understated drama, the blessedness of ordinary people, as individuals and bound in clans, is knowingly, movingly conveyed." |

You Can Count on Me (2000) |
"Beautiful, compassionate, articulate." |
|
Splat C+ |
You Don't Mess With The Zohan (2008) |
"Forget Monty Python, You Don't Mess With the Zohan is a circus that never really flies." |
Lisa Schwarzbaum |
Splat C+ |
You Got Served (2004) |
"The story is so bored with itself, it collapses -- but the diverse troupe of dance talents at least makes it an eclectic slide." |
Scott Brown |

You Kill Me (2007) |
"[A] precious, inert dud of a hitmen-are-people-too comedy." |
Owen Gleiberman |

You're Gonna Miss Me - A Film About Roky Erickson (2007) |
"Director Keven McAlester thinks he's making Crumb, but he doesn't give you enough of [Roky] Erickson in his glory. You're Gonna Miss Me has the taint of exploitation." |

Tomato B- |
You, Me and Dupree (2006) |
"The joke, of course, is that it's really Owen Wilson who's in control. He can't play the dazed rogue forever, but for now he's the happy master of that domain." |
Owen Gleiberman |
Tomato A- |
Young Adam (2004) |
"The clammy power of Young Adam lies as much in the frank, emotional nakedness the actors bring to their roles under Mackenzie's care as in the baroque hopelessness of the plot." |
Lisa Schwarzbaum |

Young Girl and the Monsoon (2001) |
"When Kinney and Muth share scenes, it's hard not to get caught up." |

The Young Victoria (2009) |
"Director Jean-Marc Vallée's images have a creamy stateliness, but this is no gilded
princess fantasy -- it's the story of a budding ruler who learns to control her surroundings, and Blunt makes that journey at once authentic and relevant." |
Owen Gleiberman |
Tomato A- |
Young@Heart (2008) |
"[Director] Walker has found a delicate, thoughtful, respectful, witty way to convey both the dignity of the individual men and women singing, as well as the ineffable power of determining to live fully until there's no breath left." |
Lisa Schwarzbaum |

Your Friends & Neighbors (1998) |
"Bleak, scathing, and utterly compelling!" |

Yours, Mine, & Ours (2005) |
"The modern soft edges only accentuate the datedness of the premise." |
Lisa Schwarzbaum |
Splat C+ |
Youth in Revolt (2010) |
"Truth is, there's also too much
Michael Cera. Which isn't the star's fault. I blame the movie's bad timing, and its delayed release." |

Splat F |
Youth Without Youth (2007) |
"The movie is one soporific, depressed, deadeningly vague scene after another." |

Yu-Gi-Oh: The Movie (2004) |
"A feature-length anime commercial." |
