Splat 2.5/4
W. (2008)
"a muddy film that's enjoyable to watch, but really doesn't have much to say."
Sean McBride
Splat 1/4
Waist Deep (2006)
"so superficial and poorly directed that I’ve got to think that even those inclined to appreciate a gangsta-flavored action flick will be shaking their heads in disappointment."
Tomato 3/4
Walk the Line (2005)
"Walk the Line will send you out of the theater eager to download the entire Johnny Cash collection."
Tomato 4/4
WALL-E (2008)
"There are no accolades too generous for the film that turns out to be so good that it's now my favorite story from the Pixar library."
Tomato 3.5/4
Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005)
"wonderful characters combined with a captivating, albeit very silly story"
Wanted (2008)
"If you're one of those summer movie fanatics, the kind of person who values non-stop action and cutting-edge special effects to the exclusion of character and story, then the new movie "Wanted" is certainly the film you want to see"
War of the Worlds (2005)
"an awesome summer movie that showcases a director and some actors at the top of their games."
Watchmen (2009)
"Fans of the graphic novel will be thrilled to see their beloved tome tenderly rendered out on the big screen, while those unfamiliar with the material will be left wondering why everybody is making such a highbrow fuss."
Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins (2008)
"a cast full of talented comedians and a director who obviously doesn't mind watching his cast go way over the top in search of raucous and randy laughs"
What Happens in Vegas (2008)
"I can't recommend it as a must-see date night getaway, neither will I discourage audiences looking for a little bit of mindless rom-com fun. And given the likable nature of the film's two stars, this trip to "Vegas" coasts by on just enough charm to make"
Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden? (2008)
"a lot of fun to watch, but I seriously doubt if anybody is going to leave the theater having learned anything about the Middle East that they didn't already know."
Splat 1.5/4
White Chicks (2004)
"White Chicks isn’t a bad film because the guys don’t look convincing as women; it’s a bad film because it’s just not all that funny."
White Noise (2005)
"It's silly, but it does have some spooky moments that jump out at you."
"It’s stupid, but it’s scary-stupid"
The Wicker Man (2006)
"so bad that it’s scary."
Wicker Park (2004)
"a melancholy mess of a movie where attractive people act like idiots for a few hours, all the while performing as if they were in a murder mystery or a ghost story."
Wild Hogs (2007)
"one of those lowest common denominator movies that aims only for easy laughs and a quick paycheck for its main actors"
Wolf Creek (2005)
"one of the more disturbing horror films I’ve seen in quite some time."
Splat 2/4
Woman, Thou Art Loosed (2004)
"It sounds like a rather overt Christian message, but the film is actually more of a cautionary melodrama with religious sermons sprinkled in between the various scenes"
The Women (2008)
"They say that you can never have too much of a good thing, but in this case, there's so much talent and only so much time that most of the actresses are wasted in cameo roles."
World Trade Center (2006)
"a nearly pitch-perfect film that celebrates the ordinary heroes of 9/11"
