Tomato
B-

Take the Lead (2006)

"This conventional cross of Dangerous Minds and Mad Hot Ballroom can be beholden to the inspiring teacher movie formula, but Banderas' quiet grace keeps the film from pushing the motivational message too insistently."

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
B

Tarnation (2004)

"As a first-time experimental filmmaker, Caouette displays remarkable directing and editing skills."

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
B

Team America: World Police (2004)

"[Parker and Stone's] merciless mockery of Hollywood action clichés, particularly those found in Jerry Bruckheimer’s productions, couldn’t be more accurate."

Mark Pfeiffer

Splat
C

Terminator Salvation (2009)

"Terminator Salvation boasts impressive setpieces that provide eye-popping visual scale, but the story so badly lacks scope that the film feels small and, ultimately, inconsequential."

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
B-

Thank You For Smoking (2006)

"Bolstered by outrageous humor, Thank You for Smoking grazes the main players and bystanders discussing national welfare from their own self-interest."

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
A-

That Obscure Object of Desire (1977)

"That Obscure Object of Desire is an intoxicating descent into one man’s experience of the emotional terrorism intended to shake him from his ways."

Mark Pfeiffer

Splat
C

The Clone Wars (2008)

"The Clone Wars elicits some pangs of nostalgia with its grand battles, alien landscapes, and beloved characters but yields little more than fuzzy thoughts of what used to be."

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
A+

There Will Be Blood (2007)

"There Will Be Blood is a spectacular achievement that, at this early date, seems worthy to be mentioned alongside cinema's avowed masterpieces."

Mark Pfeiffer

Splat
C-

The Thing About My Folks (2005)

"The Thing About My Folks contains more sap than a Vermont maple."

Mark Pfeiffer

Splat
C-

Things We Lost in the Fire (2007)

"Damaged individuals healing one another is a serviceable idea for a film, but Things We Lost in the Fire is missing an essential component: plausibility."

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
B

Tim Burton's Corpse Bride (2005)

"Corpse Bride continues a perfect marriage between Burton’s creativity and a technique rarely used for feature films. "

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
B-

TMNT (2007)

"TMNT amounts to no more than an extended episode of a television cartoon, but this new adventure gets in enough laughs and action to make it worth fans coming out with their shells on to see it."

Mark Pfeiffer

Splat
D+

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)

"...an ungainly and incomprehensible assault on the senses."

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
B

Transporter 2 (2005)

"Transporter 2 bursts with outrageous driving stunts, sublimely absurd fight scenes, and a sense of humor that ties it together. "

Mark Pfeiffer

Tomato
A-

Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story (2006)

"What Winterbottom has done beautifully is distill Sterne's comic experimentation with the rules and shape of the written narrative and translate it into a lark on filmmaking form and technique."

Mark Pfeiffer
