Splat 2/5
Gabrielle (2005)
"I do not believe, as far as I can remember %u2013 and I pray I don't offend, my dear reader %u2013 the line of dialogue, "The thought of your sperm inside me is unbearable," derived from the pen of Conrad, but rather its harsh tones sound pure Huppertian."

Splat 1/5
Georges Bataille's Story of the Eye (2004)
"Apocalyptic porn."
Tomato 3/5
A Girl Cut in Two (2008)
"All of the characters are walking contradictions, each pulling and pushing away the viewer. Part of the film's tension derives from what the audience clearly sees and what Gabrielle doesn't."
Splat 1.5/5
The Girl From Monaco (2009)
"If a man had directed The Girl from Monaco, this erstwhile comedy would be labeled misogynistic -- a charge that would stick."
Tomato 4/5
The Girl on the Train (2009)
"Téchiné's unsettling The Girl on the Train is his best film in years and already one of 2009's highlights, freely inspired by a sensational real-life media furor."
Splat 2.5/5
God Grew Tired of Us (2007)
"Given the growing violence and genocide in Sudan, the film's release is opportune, but the movie itself is not as effective as an account of assimilation or dislocation."
Going Upriver: The Long War of John Kerry (2004)
"What is remarkable is the sense of déjà vu that permeates the film."
The Golden Compass (2007)
"Put away your picket signs."
Tomato 2.5/5
Golden Door (2007)
"Emanuele Crialese makes the star of his new film his director of photography, Agnes Godard."
Tomato 6/10
Good (2008)
"A worthy attempt to give the banality of bureaucratic evil both an individualized credibility and a somber universal warning"
Nora Lee Mandel
Tomato 8/10
Good Hair (2010)
"The "Girlfriend, ya gotta see this movie!" of the year for an entertaining and provocative tour of some of the permutations of African-American women with their hair."
Tomato '3/5'
Good Morning, Night (2003)
"Director Marco Bellocchio takes a pragmatic and complex position"
Good Night. And, Good Luck (2005)
"The crusading spirit of director Stanley Kramer (Judgment at Nuremberg) lives on in director George Clooney's matter-of-fact but ardent dramatization."
Grand Hotel (1932)
"What may come as a surprise is that, among this illustrious cast, it is Crawford who stands out."
Tomato '3.75/5'
Grizzly Man (2005)
"The movie holds the same intriguing and absorbing appeal as John Krakauer's non-fiction bestseller Into the Wild."
Tomato 9/10
The Grocer's Son (2008)
"Beautiful Provence, and its charming traditionalists, colorfully work their summer magic on a hunky wayward son with terrific appeal to ferment a sparkling romance."
Tomato 3.5/5
Groundhog Day (1993)
"The film endures largely because of the appeal of both its story line and the cast."
Guerrilla: The Taking of Patty Hearst (2004)
"Interviews with two former SLA members provide this recounting with much-needed depth."
Guest of Cindy Sherman (2009)
"Guest's focus on Sherman and her work is [the film's] strength, providing an in-depth and revealing glimpse of one of the most celebrated artists in the world,"
