Splat

I Am Legend (2007)

"While I Am Legend is formulaic sci-fi action (ripping-off 28 Weeks Later) it’s only interesting as a cultural-political artifact."

Armond White

Splat

I Love You, Man (2009)

"From its snarky title on down, everything about I Love You, Man ignores the complexities of male identity."

Armond White

Tomato

I Now Pronounce You Chuck And Larry (2007)

"It’s a modern classic (despite a cheap-shot plug for Giuliani). By comparison, Hollywood’s most celebrated gay comedies -- In and Out, Chuck and Buck, Blades of Glory, even the laughable Brokeback Mountain -- were all failures of nerve."

Armond White

Tomato

I Served the King of England (2008)

"The film remains a strange comic fable about finding happiness in the most outlandish of places."

Mark Peikert

Tomato

I Want Someone to Eat Cheese With (2007)

"A gently bittersweet fable."

Eric Kohn

Splat

I'm Not There (2007)

"I'm Not There has epic length, but it’s one bad idea after another."

Armond White

Tomato

I.O.U.S.A. (2008)

"For a topic as inherently boring as economics, [director Patrick] Creadon has managed a creditable job of keeping our attention throughout I.O.U.S.A."

Mark Peikert

Tomato

If I Didn't Care (2007)

"If I Didn’t Care doesn’t sympathize with its depraved protagonists. Instead, it allows us to rejoice in the guilty pleasure of watching a misguided ship of passion sink."

Eric Kohn

Splat

Il Divo (2009)

"Sorrentino’s version of Andreotti’s story is thus only really fascinating as a bloated vanity project, one that is unlikely to win him many new American defenders."

Simon Abrams

Tomato

In a Lonely Place (1950)

"Nicholas Ray’s 1950 film deserves to be better known; it’s one of Hollywood’s finest examinations of masculinity."

Armond White

Splat

In Bruges (2008)

"It’s deeply insulting to movie audiences when an award-winning playwright thinks that this sub-Tarantino nonsense carries the essence of cinema in some way."

Armond White

Splat

In the Loop (2009)

"Instead of inspiring geniuses, Iraq war backlash has only resulted in snarky self-righteousness that -- from Charlie Wilson’s War and now British import In the Loop -- has demonstrated the low ebb of modern comedy."

Armond White

Splat

The Incredible Hulk (2008)

"It’s the crappy summer blockbuster Marvelites probably deserve."

Armond White

Tomato

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)

"This is Spielberg at his most pop and most amazing: turning the shiny American quotidian into an authentically numinous and strange experience."

Armond White

Splat

The Informant! (2009)

"There’s no humanity to relate to, no wit to laugh at, only chuckling at one’s own sense of superiority -- if you can afford it."

Armond White

Splat

Inglourious Basterds (2009)

"QT manipulates WWII horror into hip pornography -- Jewish revenge looks just like the sadism in Eli Roth’s Hostel movie. Our political and moral responses are discombobulated."

Armond White

Splat

The International (2009)

"Though stylish, it lacks the aesthetic-moral force of such political thrillers as Francesco Rosi’s Exquisite Corpses, Peckinpah’s The Killer Elite, Spielberg’s Munich or DePalma’s Blow Out."

Armond White

Tomato

Interview (2007)

"There’s no doubting that the two actors, whose exchanges carry the script to its deceitful ending, generate spectacular chemistry."

Eric Kohn

Tomato

Into the Wild (2007)

"Darkly observant, the plot makes great art."

Eric Kohn

Splat

The Invasion (2007)

"What once seemed a foolproof concept -- people suddenly changing into soulless pods -- has now been reduced to yet another exercise in political finger-pointing."

Armond White

Splat

The Invention of Lying (2009)

"Gervais’ ridicule proves his lack of sophistication. Not only the most brutally photographed movie of the year, The Invention of Lying is so foully directed and carelessly acted it ultimately proves disingenuous."

Armond White

Splat

Invictus (2009)

"Eastwood bungles his subject."

Armond White

Tomato

Irene in Time (2009)

"Against this Judd Apatow era, Jaglom’s exploratory filmmaking requires a personal response unhindered by TV formula. His semi-improvised vignettes go in unexpected places, often profoundly emotional directions..."

Armond White

Tomato

Irina Palm (2008)

"There’s little new in terms of the plot’s bold strokes. But the details and minutiae keep Irina Palm fresher than it would have been otherwise -- along with Faithfull’s low-key performance, turning her rasp from jaded to shy."

Mark Peikert

Splat

Iron Man (2008)

"Iron Man is a dispiriting attempt to apply superficial principles to inherently silly kid culture."

Armond White

Splat

It is Fine! EVERYTHING IS FINE (2007)

"IT IS FINE! allows an outsider’s plight to define the mood and give significance to the art. Yet it’s hard to take that endeavor seriously when the movie operates under the guise of exploitation."

Eric Kohn

Splat

It's Complicated (2009)

"Each “adorable” yet unreal scene is more offensive than the last."

Armond White
