Tomato

The Band's Visit (2007)

"This is one movie where words can do little justice to the quality of the film itself."

David Kaplan

Tomato

The Band's Visit (2007)

"Kolirin's writing conveys the poignancy and heartwarming touches that make this movie the triumph that it is."

Jeanne Kaplan

Tomato

Batman Begins (2005)

"Christopher Nolan, at the tender age of 35, has created a true summer blockbuster in what is probably the best of all the Caped Crusader films."

David Kaplan

Tomato

Batman Begins (2005)

"Out of the Tibetan mountains comes a new, more inventive version of the Caped Crusader’s story than we’ve ever seen before!"

Jeanne Kaplan

Splat

Because I Said So (2007)

"Another example of filmmakers insulting the intelligence of their audience"

David Kaplan

Splat

Because I Said So (2007)

"Definitely not funny, and not appropriate for young teenagers! Yuck!"

Jeanne Kaplan

Tomato

Before the Devil Knows You're Dead (2007)

"In an astounding piece of filmmaking, 83-year-old director Sidney Lumet and writer Kelly Masterson provide the year's most unusual theater-going experience --- a powerful film that will shock, surprise, thrill and amaze you."

David Kaplan

Tomato

Before the Devil Knows You're Dead (2007)

"If you are craving a juicy thriller, then put this movie at the top of your list."

Jeanne Kaplan

Tomato

Bella (2007)

"The movie works because we care about all the characters, especially with writing that rings true, not maudlin."

David Kaplan

Tomato

Bella (2007)

"'Bella' is a good beginning for Monteverde. He exhibits the making of an excellent director. This film is not quite there yet, but it's close."

Jeanne Kaplan

Splat

Bewitched (2005)

"The best way to describe this attempted “revival” of the popular TV series? How about bland, boring and bothersome? "

David Kaplan

Splat

Bewitched (2005)

"“Bewitched” was not so beguiling --- what a shame!"

Jeanne Kaplan

Tomato

Beyond the Gates (2007)

"The film chronicles man's inhumanity to man during the Rwandan genocide of 1994, (where) selflessness and selfishness stand side by side ----"

David Kaplan

Tomato

Beyond the Gates (2007)

"Make sure you sit through the credits to learn about the victims who survived and worked on this film ---- extraordinary!"

Jeanne Kaplan

Splat
2/5

Billy Bathgate (1991)

No article available.

David Kaplan

Tomato

Black Book (2007)

"With the release of his World War II thriller 'Black Book', Verhoeven has entered the realm of classics like 'Schindler's List' and 'The Pianist'."

David Kaplan

Tomato

Black Book (2007)

"A gripping story of duplicity, intrigue and evil that grabs your attention from the very first frame and never lets go."

Jeanne Kaplan

Splat

The Black Dahlia (2006)

"The writing is bad, and the cast overplays their roles to the point of silliness. The director has to take most of the blame."

David Kaplan

Splat

The Black Dahlia (2006)

"With such an accomplished cast assembled, Scarlett Johannson, Hilary Swank and Aaron Eckhart, director Brian De Palma should be slapped upside the head for allowing them to overact."

Jeanne Kaplan

Tomato
3/5

Black Rain (1989)

David Kaplan

Tomato
4/5

Blackboard Jungle (1955)

David Kaplan

Tomato

The Blind Side (2009)

"See it for the heartwarming story it is, and for Sandra Bullock's best movie in quite a while."

David Kaplan

Tomato

The Blind Side (2009)

"There are so many ways this film could have gone badly, but writer/director John Lee Hancock has taken Michael Lewis' book of the same title and made it into a believable, non-sentimental movie."

Jeanne Kaplan

Tomato
4/5

The Blob (1958)

No article available.

David Kaplan

Tomato

Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (2006)

"Cohen's comic genius is remarkable because most of what he does is improvisation."

David Kaplan

Tomato

Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (2006)

"Most of this film is designed to entertain tall 6-year-olds, my darling husband included. He laughed himself silly and I wanted to cover my head so no one would see me."

Jeanne Kaplan

Splat

Bottle Shock (2008)

"The only saving grace for 'Bottle Shock' is the finale, which features Rickman laying down the rules -----"

David Kaplan

Splat

Bottle Shock (2008)

"The writing rears its ugly head and manages to obliterate an otherwise interesting premise."

Jeanne Kaplan

Tomato

The Boy in the Striped Pajamas (2008)

"This is a rather gentle offering that builds to a devastating climax, one that may stun the moviegoer as much as any previous Holocaust movie."

David Kaplan

Tomato

The Boy in the Striped Pajamas (2008)

"---- a truly inspirational film ----"

Jeanne Kaplan

Tomato
4/5

The Boys From Brazil (1978)

No article available.

David Kaplan

Tomato

The Break-Up (2006)

"It genuinely tugs at our heartstrings as we witness two people in the agonizing throes of a crumbling relationship."

David Kaplan

Tomato

The Break-Up (2006)

"Vaughn and Aniston have remarkable chemistry, and both do a masterful job expressing the realities of such a sad and painful experience."

Jeanne Kaplan

Tomato

Brick Lane (2008)

"It's a testament to Kaushik's acting ability that he turns what could have been an odious character into a quite likeable one."

David Kaplan

Tomato

Brick Lane (2008)

"One of those poorly chosen movie titles that does not do justice to the beautiful story told within."

Jeanne Kaplan

Tomato

Broken Flowers (2005)

"the film is 100 times more palatable than any movie featuring car chases, fiery explosions and other overdone special effects."

David Kaplan

Tomato

Broken Flowers (2005)

"if you are an ardent fan of Bill Murray’s, this is a must-see performance ---- truly his best thus far."

Jeanne Kaplan

Tomato

Brothers (2009)

"While "Brothers" is hardly uplifting material, it is a marvelous display of ensemble acting."

David Kaplan

Tomato

Brothers (2009)

"Director Jim Sheridan takes us on this harrowing journey."

Jeanne Kaplan

Splat

The Burning Plain (2009)

"Men, I ask you this question: can a film where both Charlize Theron and Kim Basinger appear naked be a downer? The answer is yes, surprisingly."

David Kaplan

Splat

The Burning Plain (2009)

"Arriaga is a prolific and talented screenwriter as evidenced by "Babel" and "21 Grams", but he falters here."

Jeanne Kaplan
