Tomato
3/4

V For Vendetta (2005)

"A divided domestic electorate will take [it] either as a kick-***, future-punk primal scream of political frustration or as an irresponsible, literally and figuratively incendiary attack on our...approval-deficient leaders."

Peter Canavese

Splat
2/4

Valiant (2005)

"Valiant is sadly boring, and while its rote mechanics may function nominally on children, it's going to be a long 76 minutes for the adults."

Peter Canavese

Tomato
3/4

Valkyrie (2008)

"[A] pleasing throwback to 1970s war-intrigue pictures. [Blu-ray]"

Peter Canavese

Tomato
3/4

Vanishing Point (1971)

"Merged the appeal of Bullitt with that of, say, Zabriskie Point...fast cars and dusty existentialism. [Blu-ray]"

Peter Canavese

Tomato
3.5/4

Vanity Fair (2004)

"Taking a cue from Thackeray's spry, witty, self-referential narration, Indian director Nair emphasizes the allusions to her native country...as a land of exotic escape..."

Peter Canavese

Splat
2/4

Vantage Point (2008)

"Asks us to believe the terrorists would, after slaughtering countless people, risk their entire plan--and their very lives--on...well, I won't say. But from my vantage point, it was ridiculous."

Peter Canavese

Tomato
3.5/4

Venus (2006)

"O'Toole gives a magnificent old-lion performance...in a role that allows both subtlety and theatrical vigor."

Peter Canavese

Vera Drake (2004)

"Mike Leigh on Vera Drake and Career Highlights"

Peter Canavese

Tomato
4/4

Vera Drake (2004)

"The austerity of the film's latter part might seem merely maudlin had Leigh not so carefully established that life goes on in and around the film's central polemic."

Peter Canavese

Vera Drake (2004)

"Imelda Staunton on Vera Drake and Career Highlights"

Peter Canavese

Splat
2.5/4

A Very Long Engagement (2004)

"When Jeunet attempts to achieve dramatic heft, with no commensurate change in style, he falls distressingly short."

Peter Canavese

Tomato
2.5/4

Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008)

"Perhaps the greatest compliment to be paid to Vicky Cristina Barcelona is that it serves as a spot-on emblem of Allen's own life philosophy: cling to the transient pleasures, as you're bound to be let down in the end."

Peter Canavese

Splat
2.5/4

The Village (2004)

"A well-meaning, half-hour Twilight Zone episode stretched to the outer limits of a two-hour feature."

Peter Canavese

Tomato
2.5/4

Voices in Wartime (2005)

"Making poetry cinematic requires greater imagination than King evinces...If the medium isn't always as sturdy as the message, that's a fault that can be readily overlooked."

Peter Canavese

Tomato
3/4

Volver (2006)

"Though its humble pleasures give cause to pause and reflect on the Spanish filmmaker's occasionally overpraised output, Volver is a diverting melodrama..."

Peter Canavese
