ABC Africa (2002) |
"ABC Africa, with its impressionistic style, doesn't provide much in the way of facts ... but it does provide glimpses of the dying." |
Maria Garcia |
Tomato |
ABCD (2001) |
"Nothing particularly fresh or exciting, but its intentions are so sincere and, for the most part, it's so well-acted that it emerges as quite affecting." |
David Noh |

Aberdeen (2001) |
"A magnificently acted, bold tale of a father-daughter relationship that is hard to shake." |
Doris Toumarkine |
Tomato |

Eric Monder |
Tomato |

Tomato |
Adored - Diary of a Porn Star (2004) |

Tomato |

Kevin Lally |
Tomato |

Erica Abeel |
Tomato |
Afterglow (1997) |

Ed Kelleher |
Tomato |
Agent Cody Banks (2003) |

David Noh |
Tomato |
The Aggressives (2005) |

Maria Garcia |
Tomato 5/5 |

Tomato |

Tomato |
Alien Trespass (2009) |
