Racing Stripes (2005)

"Racing Stripes follows a story arc similar to Babe, but it possesses none of the warmth, humor, or originality of that film."

Mark Pfeiffer

Splat
C-

Raise Your Voice (2004)

"Duff’s sunny disposition makes her a likable movie presence, but I’ve yet to see anything from her...beyond a 'let’s put on a show' high school drama club enthusiasm."

Mark Pfeiffer

Splat
C+

Rambo (2008)

"Qualms about Rambo's contextual appropriateness aside, this guns-ablazing movie works on a primal level, but stiff performances and a musty script has it firing its share of blanks too."

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
B-

Ray (2004)

"Ray is a flawed film, but Foxx’s captivating acting and a bustling soundtrack smooth the rough spots."

Mark Pfeiffer

Splat
C-

The Reaping (2007)

"Like a southern fried X-Files, The Reaping explores peculiar incidents with a mix of belief and skepticism, at least for a time, but it loses its potency as paranormal answers become verified."

Mark Pfeiffer

Splat
D

Rebound (2005)

"It’s a laugh-free exercise in moviemaking by numbers."

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
B

Red Eye (2005)

"Red Eye is a wind-up machine of elegant simplicity, an increasingly uncommon breed among today's bloated genre films."

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
B-

Reign Over Me (2007)

"Although muddled and inconsistent, especially toward the end, Reign Over Me succeeds with its portrayal of friendship in hard times."

Mark Pfeiffer

Splat
D+

Reno 911!: Miami (2007)

"Reno 911!: Miami is too safe and unremarkable to be a crime against comedy a la Norbit, but anyone in search of a laugh feels robbed all the same."

Mark Pfeiffer

Splat
D+

Rent (2005)

"The play may have felt fresh nearly ten years ago, but the film version is about as edgy as Pat Boone covering Nirvana."

Mark Pfeiffer

Splat
D

The Return (2006)

"Director Asif Kapadia and screenwriter Adam Sussman reach into the grab bag of horror movie clichés and pull out fistfuls for The Return."

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
B

The Ringer (2005)

"Considering all of the jackass things [Knoxville's] done on his way to fame, his presence in The Ringer helps the film challenge the idea of what is normal and what is intellectually disabled."

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
B+

The Rock (1996)

"A rousing action picture with generous dashes of humor, The Rock remains the much-maligned director's best film"

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
B-

The Rocketeer (1991)

"The Rocketeer is a throwback to when movie heroes weren’t burdened by irony or existential angst."

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
B-

Rocky Balboa (2006)

"In an achievement befitting the boxer, Stallone delivers a sucker punch in finding a way to make this underdog comeback story succeed."

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
B-

The Ruins (2008)

"The lack of explanations in The Ruins may prove unsatisfying to some, but the unknown is often more terrifying than the tangible. Such are the wages of fear."

Mark Pfeiffer

Splat
C

Run, Fat Boy, Run (2008)

"The jokes land softly, but Run Fatboy Run moves at a sitcom-like clip that keeps it watchable even when it isn't especially funny."

Mark Pfeiffer

Splat
D

RV (2006)

"RV travels the comic highways similar to those driven by National Lampoon's Vacation's Griswolds, but the insufferable Munros leave us wishing they'd befall a fate more like that of the stranded family in The Hills Have Eyes."

Mark Pfeiffer
