S.W.A.T. (2003) |

Sahara (2005) |
"Mindless, but fun and entertaining. It’s sort of James Bondish without the ridiculous special effects. I enjoyed it, mainly because of McConaughey and Zahn.

Saint Ralph (2005) |
"You might shed a few tears at the tender moments between Ralph and his comatose mother, but you’ll laugh and chuckle and feel good far more often." |

Sarah Silverman: Jesus is Magic (2005) |
"The language and the points of view are disgusting. This is a film that is in such poor taste that it’s almost impossible to endure." |
Tony Medley |
Splat 2/10 |
Saved! (2004) |
"Despite Dannelly's apparent intent to make a statement about tolerance, Saved! is an intolerant, morally simplistic film that ignores the concept that there really is something called “right and wrong.”" |

School for Scoundrels (2006) |
"A little too long, but good enough, especially when it's compared with most of the other stuff that's foisted on the audience these days." |

Scoop (2006) |
"If Adam and Eve had been burdened with the same lack of chemistry between Scarlett Johansson and Hugh Jackman, the human race would have died aborning." |

Seabiscuit (2003) |
"It’s a good story well told, most of the actors are good, and the cinematography should win awards." |

Seducing Dr. Lewis (2004) |
"An intelligent, script-driven, well acted, well directed little story totally devoid of special effects. If you’re patient and in the mood, this is a succulent morsel." |

The Sentinel (2006) |
"...horrible, anticlimactic last two minutes mar this chase mystery, which entertains despite some sloppy story telling." |
Tony Medley |
Splat 4/10 |
Seraphim Falls (2007) |
"...a pretty good movie for 90 minutes. It's undone by the ludicrous last half hour, which left me wishing I hadn't wasted my time." |

Sex and Death 101 (2008) |
"Now we know how the dopes in the beer commercials spend their time when they are not drinking their beer. They laugh their socks off at movies like this." |
Tony Medley |
Splat 4/10 |
Sex is Comedy (2004) |
"While it could have been an interesting behind-the-scenes look at the making of a movie, with substantial full frontal nudity, it is a bore." |
Tony Medley |
Splat 0/10 |
Shadowboxer (2006) |
"A film replete with awful acting that glorifies nihilism...in your face movie-making by people with a moral compass badly askew. There's nothing remotely entertaining about this film." |
Tony Medley |
Splat 5/10 |
Shall We Dance? (2004) |
"the beat for much of the music is difficult, if not impossible, to hear. If you're a dancer, or like to watch good dancing, this is very disappointing." |

She's The Man (2006) |
"Bynes does such a good job as a boy that it comes across as funny and entertaining, even if you have graduated from high school." |

Shoot 'Em Up (2007) |
"Ugly, disgusting, revolting, sadistic, and pointless...If it is intended as a satire, it fails. If it isn't, it is a grotesque disgrace." |
Tony Medley |
Tomato 7/10 |
Shooter (2007) |
"Without the silly politics, this is a slam-bang, nonstop man-on-the-run conspiracy thriller with a reprehensible moral and an absurd factual basis, despite abundant graphic violence." |
Tony Medley |
Tomato 7/10 |
Shopgirl (2005) |
"Like many Hollywood movies, it confuses sex for love. Even so, after a terrible first half hour, the movie picks up and the remaining hour actually becomes entertaining." |

Sicko (2007) |
"Full of half-truths (e.g., the French government his characters praise was thrown out of office after the film wrapped), this is just more of Moore's pathetic propaganda" |

Sideways (2004) |
"If you can hang in there and don’t mind listening to two hours of talk, this is a fairly interesting story about two amoral, selfish, inconsiderate losers.

Signs (2002) |
"The one good thing about it is that it’s over in one hour and 47 minutes. The bad thing is to think what a terrible waste it was of an hour and 47 minutes." |
Tony Medley |
Splat 1/10 |
Sin City (2005) |
"A dark, depressing, dismal descent into graphic violence without pain masquerading as comic-book stylistic filmmaking. Hard to believe anybody could find this entertaining." |

Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (2004) |
"The script is not funny or even humorous, or logical, or satirical...The sepia type color makes it unpleasant to watch." |

Sleuth (2007) |
"Despite interesting cinematography, this remake it fails because Michael Caine is no Laurence Olivier and Jude Law is no Michael Caine." |
Tony Medley |
Tomato 9/10 |
Smart People (2008) |
"A funny film dealing with a serious subject of how two exceptionally smart people cope with dealing with those who don't get it as quickly or succinctly as they do." |

Smokin' Aces (2007) |
"A thoroughly despicable movie. For my money a film like this deserves an NC-17 rating far more than one dealing with explicit sex." |

Speed Racer (2008) |
"The color is beautiful. That's the only good thing I can say about this film that consists of about 15 minutes of dialogue and 120 minutes of mind-numbing special effects." |

Stage Beauty (2004) |
"Cut 15 minutes from the 105-minute running time, take out the gratuitous speculation of homosexuality, and you have something approaching the perfect movie.
