Tomato

Factotum (2006)

"Gets the mixture right ... director Bent Hamer has a knack for coaxing nuance out of deadpan, and his efforts here linger longer than can be easily aspirined away."

Andrew Wright

Splat

The Family Stone (2005)

"Hits every conceivable chord, no matter how much of a stretch."

Andrew Wright

Splat

Fay Grim (2007)

"The majority of the signs point to a director on the decline. Or not, maybe. It's complicated."

Andrew Wright

Tomato

Fear and Trembling (2004)

"Whether grunting like a sumo, dueling with a copy machine, or cartwheeling naked across the office at midnight, Telstud keeps the film firmly on the endearing side of quirky."

Andrew Wright

Tomato

Fearless (2006)

"Serves as a rousing, philosophically high-minded reminder of the actor's glory days."

Andrew Wright

Fearless (2006)

"Interview with Jet Li"

Andrew Wright

Splat

Feast (2006)

"[Injects] an unusual ferocity into the moments of random bloodshed, but fails to do much with the long, arid stretches between beheadings and eyeball pluckings."

Andrew Wright

Splat

Fido (2007)

"Boasts a premise that might make for an amusing Far Side panel -- '50s suburbia with zombie servants -- and... doesn't do much else with it, actually."

Andrew Wright

Tomato

Find Me Guilty (2006)

"Sporting what looks like one of Bert Convy's escaped hairpieces, Diesel delivers a sly performance: charming, yet honest about his character's essential lunkheadedness."

Andrew Wright

Splat

Firewall (2006)

"For all the blarney about hacking and up-to-the-minute tech geekery, it's really just the same old story about protecting the homestead from rustlers in black hats."

Andrew Wright

Splat

First Snow (2007)

"For a movie concerned with such heady topics as fate, destiny, and mounting paranoia, it seems curiously reluctant to stick with the mystical."

Andrew Wright

Splat

Flags of Our Fathers (2006)

"As both war epic and historical character piece, it feels weirdly insubstantial."

Andrew Wright

Tomato

Flushed Away (2006)

"Significantly more manic than the films that made the studio famous ... Fortunately, it's a great kind of manic."

Andrew Wright

Tomato

The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)

"Yeah, it's a dopey kid's movie, but -- significant detail -- one that feels like it was actually written for kids ... Also, whenever things threaten to get too schlocky, this amazing villainess with a magic bullwhip shows up."

Andrew Wright

Tomato

The Fountain (2006)

"Whether Laughable Folly or Fool's Errand or (Possible) Head-Scratching, Noggin-Expanding Masterwork, there's never a moment where it's anything less than sincere."

Andrew Wright

-

The Fountain (2006)

"Interview with Darren Aronofsky"

Andrew Wright

Splat

Four Brothers (2005)

"Lays on the thug-life testosterone with a trowel ... a marathon Grand Theft Auto session, without the redeeming hand-eye coordination development."

Andrew Wright

Splat

The Fourth Kind (2009)

"A gimmicky, inordinately self-impressed attempt to cash in on the latest tabloid buzzwords. If this was made in the '70s, it'd be narrated by Leonard Nimoy and chock-full of yetis and the Devil's Triangle."

Andrew Wright

Splat

Freedomland (2005)

"All the mechanisms are in place, but the juice is sorely lacking."

Andrew Wright

Splat

Funny People (2009)

"Taken as a sloppy, maudlin, two-and-a-half-hour whole, it paints the picture of a talented filmmaker whose insular self-regard is beginning to attract small planetoids."

Andrew Wright
