Tomato B	Dark Water (2005)	"[Connelly] does superior work creating a woman struggling to be a good mother while feeling like she’s falling to pieces."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato B+	Dave Chappelle's Block Party (2006)	"[Chappelle's] an edgy comedian, but his purpose with the concert and film is to make a diverse crowd feel comfortable with one another. More than any message, that effort is likely to be remembered."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato B+	Dear Frankie (2005)	"True to its weepy telefilm resemblance, Dear Frankie delivers several eye-dabbing moments, but the tears...are earned through solid storytelling and subdued acting."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat C-	Death of a President (2006)	"[The director] has expertly interwoven real and simulated footage to make a film that looks convincing, but it amounts to little more than a clever editing exercise."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat D+	Deck the Halls (2006)	"A few laughs are sprinkled in this equivalent of a lame sitcom holiday episode, but the broad comedy and treacly ending are unlikely to put anyone in the Christmas spirit."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat C	Dedication (2007)	"Dedication's problem isn't its idealized conception of love but the thoroughly unconvincing way in which it is realized."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato B-	Definitely, Maybe (2008)	"Definitely, Maybe stumbles along the way to its destination just like its protagonist does, but the humor and heart compensate for the lack of sure footing that extends all the way to the uncertainty in the title."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato B	Deja Vu (2006)	"An unforeseen mix of action, sci-fi, and even a hint of romance, Deja Vu's pleasures are in delivering what we don't see coming."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat F	Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo (2005)	"Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo recycles its lowest common denominator dirty joke even though it wasn’t very good the first time."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato B-	The Devil Wears Prada (2006)	"Streep plays Miranda subtly, not needing theatrics for the razorblade spitting she does to nick all of the unquestionably incompetent people around the character."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato A-	Diary of a Chambermaid (1964)	"Diary of a Chambermaid is a piercing examination of the bourgeoisie and its obsessions. Buñuel shows us the horrifying actions and results with varying amounts of drama and humor like only he could."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat D-	A Dirty Shame (2004)	"A Dirty Shame is outrageous for the sake of being outrageous, but unlike some of Waters' other films, it's neither shocking nor funny."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat C+	Disturbia (2007)	"With the burden of inevitable comparisons to Hitchcock's masterpiece upon it, Disturbia carves out its own modest spot as a decent thriller until caving in to the demand for a big finish."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato A-	The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (2007)	"The Diving Bell and the Butterfly transcends the uplifting movie-of-the-week story through Schnabel's artful direction and deep empathy."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat F	DOA: Dead or Alive (2007)	"If junior high school boys wrote a cheesecake syndicated TV show and spun it off into a movie, the result would be DOA: Dead or Alive."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat D+	Domino (2005)	"Domino looks like what an Avid might vomit up after partially digesting the digitized footage. It's flashy as hell, but the amphetamine-fueled method is compensating for a distinct lack of substance."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat F	Doom (2005)	"Gamers would be better off playing Doom or sitting in front of a blank screen than wasting time with this incredibly dull Aliens rip-off."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat D	Dragonball: Evolution (2009)	"Except for the presence of Hong Kong star Chow Yun-Fat, this shoddy live-action film is no different or bigger than the sort of junk kids plop down to watch on TV after school."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat C	Drillbit Taylor (2008)	"Produced by Judd Apatow and co-written by Seth Rogen, Drillbit Taylor has a been there, done that quality reminiscent of Superbad if it were much tamer and less funnier."	Mark Pfeiffer
