Splat 1.5/4
Take the Lead (2006)
"Instead of the authentic excitement of last year's documentary, Mad Hot Ballroom, Take the Lead presents contrived teen melodrama."
John Wirt
Tomato 2.5/4
Taken (2009)
"In the preposterous but gripping Taken, international scumbags mess with the wrong dad."
Splat 2.5/4
The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009)
"The film's leading men exceed the action genre's usual requirements, if only briefly."
Splat
Taxi (2004)
"Taxi, former SNL cast member Jimmy Fallon and those arrogant Brazilian supermodels should all be junked."
Tomato
Team America: World Police (2004)
"Hypocrites of all stripes better stay out of the South Park boys' sights."
Tomato 8/10
Thank You For Smoking (2006)
"As refreshing as a mid-morning cancer-stick break."
The Polar Express (2004)
"Modeled upon real actors though the movie's characters are, they lack the communicative power of genuine human expression. Frankly, they're creepy."
Tomato 3/4
There Will Be Blood (2007)
"Beautifully crafted and acted though There Will Be Blood is, Daniel Plainview remains an enigma. This and weak, reaching developments in the third act make the film a lesser epic."
Splat 2/10
Thr3e (2007)
"A bad movie only fans of deeply bad movies can love."
The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada (2005)
"The sweep and classic themes of The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada make it a rare modern western, and a good one, too. "
Thumbsucker (2005)
"Thumbsucker has plenty of bite. "
Tim Burton's Corpse Bride (2005)
"Poignancy added to whimsy, brainy dialogue, great voice talent and a beautifully told story make Corpse Bride an animated, albeit dark, gem. "
The Tomorrow Show With Tom Snyder: John, Paul, Tom & Ringo
"Of course, history conspired to make Snyder's conversation with Lennon the most compelling of his ex-Beatles interviews."
Transamerica (2005)
"Huffman makes Transamerica worth seeing. "
Transformers (2007)
"When it's not too far over the top or redundant, Transformers is a fun summer-movie ride."
Splat 2/4
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)
"John Turturro's very human, comic energy lifts an otherwise flat and re-dundant sequel."
Tomato 3.5/4
Tropic Thunder (2008)
"Even if Tropic Thunder doesn't move you to tears, it deserves your consideration."
Twilight (2008)
"Such benign vampire behavior is a stretch, but Twilight gets away with its revisionism, creating something new and, of course, romantic."
The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009)
"For true Twilight believers, the slow moments are more opportunity to gaze at pretty-boy young men playing characters who're both the best and worst boyfriends a girl could ever have."
Tyler Perry's I Can Do Bad All By Myself (2009)
"Perry sticks to his storytelling principles, doing what he does so well."
