C.R.A.Z.Y. (2005) |
"C.R.A.Z.Y. succeeds by touching on the kinds of events that could happen to any of us." |
Jette Kernion |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
Caché (2005) |
"Haneke doesn't just communicate anything to be left up to the viewer; he stacks up many ideas for the viewer to pick through." |
Christopher Campbell |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Cages (2006) |
"A movie about that panicky feeling you get when you know the romance has died." |

Splat 3/5 |
Candy (2006) |
"Candy doesn't just accidentally fall into addiction, she takes that path deliberately and doesn't want to get off the train, and we're never really given a reason to understand the whys and wherefores of her actions." |
Kim Voynar |
Splat 2/5 |
El Cantante (2007) |
"'El Cantante' takes the life of a fascinating and complex man and waters it down into a decidedly uninspiring and vanilla biopic ..." |
Kim Voynar |
Tomato |
Capitalism: A Love Story (2009) |
"...a one-sided love story, even if its message could be truly reciprocal if enough people opened their minds up enough to hear it." |

Captain Mike Across America (2007) |
"Captain Mike Across America is an information-free, narcissistic and self-congratulatory high-pitched whine from a sore loser." |
James Rocchi |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Cars (2006) |
"It's never a good sign when the funniest, most entertaining part of a movie are the closing credits." |
Jette Kernion |
Tomato |
The Case of the Grinning Cat (2006) |
"Feels like Marker's attempt to implicitly reconcile his own advanced age...one is bound to see history repeat itself in full, ignorant swing, if one lives long enough." |
Karina Longworth |
Tomato 3/5 |
Cassidy Kids (2006) |
"The characters, rather than the plot, make this an enjoyable movie." |
Jette Kernion |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Catch and Release (2007) |
"The cliches can be grating at times, and even as a typical romantic comedy it never reaches the level of, say, The Truth about Cats and Dogs." |

Chalk (2007) |
"If you have the chance to see Chalk and want to make sure you'll enjoy it at its fullest, bring a teacher or two along with you." |

Changeling (2008) |
"The story of what happened to Christine Collins is fascinating, and there are so many ways a director could have gone with it instead of just giving us a Lifetime movie draped in expensive period production values." |
James Rocchi |
Splat 2/5 |
Chapter 27 (2008) |
"Feels like thirty pages of script in a 90-minute frame." |

Charlie Bartlett (2007) |
"Charlie Bartlett director Jon Poll and Star Anton Yelchin." |
Erik Davis |
Tomato 3/5 |
Charlie Bartlett (2007) |
"Here's a film that carries a heavy message about the mis-use of prescription medication amongst today's teens, but does so in a very clever (and fun) way." |
Erik Davis |
Splat 2/5 |
Charlie Bartlett (2007) |
"Juno's dorkier, needier cousin, the one who's watched Ferris Bueller's Day Off too many times." |
Jette Kernion |
Splat 1/4 |
Charlie Wilson's War (2007) |
"Nichols's cut, gutted version (of Aaron Sorkin's script) offers a few cheery, breezy moments of rat-a-tat comedy, but Charlie Wilson's War stops being funny when you realize we're living in the sequel." |
James Rocchi |
Tomato 3/5 |
Charlie Wilson's War (2007) |
"... while movies can and do mark history, to a degree, they're also entertainment, and "Charlie Wilson's War" largely succeeds on that front." |

Tomato 4/5 |
Charlotte's Web (2006) |
"Just a nice sweet family flick, exceedingly well-made and surprisingly witty." |
Scott Weinberg |
Tomato |
Che (2008) |
"Bad biographical dramas try to tell you everything about a person's life; good biographical dramas leave you inspired to find out the things not on-screen. Che is, by that yardstick, a very good biographical drama." |

Cheri (2009) |

Chicago 10 (2008) |

Christopher Campbell |

The Children of Huang Shi (2008) |
"A TV movie in disguise." |
Nick Schager |
Tomato 5/5 |
Children of Men (2006) |
"Where some directors might have opted for making a sci-fi action film with flashy chase scenes, nifty futuristic special effects and gadgetry, and artsy camera angles, Cuarón ... holds up a mirror to our own worldview, reflecting back to us what we bring" |
Kim Voynar |
Tomato 4/5 |
Choke (2008) |
"Ultimately, Choke is really a film for the Palahniuk fans who've have been waiting years to see this book come to life." |
Erik Davis |
Tomato |
Chop Shop (2007) |
"Ale carrys the weight of the world on his scrawny shoulders, and in Palanco, Bahrani found the perfect young actor to play the part." |
Kim Voynar |
Tomato |
Chris & Don: A Love Story (2007) |
"A real-life romance to put all those rom-com fairy tales to shame." |
Nick Schager |
Tomato |
A Christmas Tale (2008) |
"This could have been an emotionally wrenching film, but Desplechin keeps the tone light, infusing the drama with humor in the most unexpected places." |
Kim Voynar |
Tomato 3/5 |
The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008) |
"Entertaining, but doesn't have the depth and daring of the best fantasy movies." |
Jette Kernion |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Circus Rosaire (2008) |
"Circus Rosaire is a charming, engaging gem of an indie film, and audiences both young and old will find much to like in it." |

City of Ember (2008) |
"A simple and lovely tale, perfect for a family outing." |
Jette Kernion |
Tomato 4/5 |
City of Men (2008) |
"Similar to City of God, though on a slightly lesser scale, City of Men presents a plot that is equally tragic and exciting." |
Christopher Campbell |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Cleaner (2007) |
"Beyond the contributions from Samuel L. Jackson and Ed Harris, however, there's very little worth talking." |
Scott Weinberg |
Tomato 3/5 |
Cleanflix (2009) |
"Raises more questions than it's prepared to answer, but still works as a spotlight shined on a weird part of the movie world." |
Scott Weinberg |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Close to Home (2007) |
"Close to Home is no buddy-cop, action-comedy ... it leaves out the action and the comedy so all that is left is a predictable narrative with no entertainment appeal." |
Christopher Campbell |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Closing Escrow (2007) |
"Escrow isn't as polished or consistent as the best of its sub-genre -- but it's pretty dang funny for the most part." |
Scott Weinberg |
Tomato |
Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs (2009) |
"...co-directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller crreate a world that scarcely resembles anything that could or would happen, and manages to be all the more exciting because of it." |

Coco Before Chanel (2009) |

A Complete History of My Sexual Failures (2008) |
"Sexual Failures is edited well, the score is great and while certain scenes feel a bit staged, Waitt is immediately likable and a ball to watch on the big screen." |
