Tomato 3.5/5 |
Half Nelson (2006) |
"Tight direction by Fleck keeps the tension where it needs to be, and he guides his key actors through the intricacies of the script with an even hand." |
Kim Voynar |
Splat 1/5 |
Hamlet 2 (2008) |
"A shoddy and indulgent mass of bits from other movies with a shapeless, shameless performance by British comedic actor Steve Coogan as its unfixed center." |
James Rocchi |
Tomato 3/5 |
Hancock (2008) |
"... in spite of its flaws, I very much enjoyed Hancock, for both its interesting and creative storytelling and Smith's great lead performance." |
Kim Voynar |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
Hancock (2008) |
"A slightly messy movie, but it's also one of the year's best." |
Scott Weinberg |
Tomato B |
The Hangover (2009) |
"As gleefully dirty as Old School, and maybe funnier." |
Eric D. Snider |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert (2008) |
"Whether you like the music or not, you can't fault Miley -- this young lady works her petite fanny off performing for her fans, and she seems to be having a great time doing it ..." |
Kim Voynar |
Splat |
Hannah Montana The Movie (2009) |
"The nicest thing one can say about the film is that at least it's not The Suite Life of Zack & Cody: The Movie." |
Nick Schager |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Hannah Takes the Stairs (2007) |
"A low-key and enjoyable film with a cast consisting mostly of other indie filmmakers and writers." |
Jette Kernion |
Splat 0/4 |
Hannibal Rising (2007) |
"And now, the prequel Hannibal Rising, which answers several questions: Where did Hannibal come from? What made him what he is?... It does not, however, answer the better question: Who fricking cares?" |

The Happening (2008) |
"Shyamalan Discusses His Films -- Past, Present, and Future" |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
The Happening (2008) |
"Shyamalan crafts a somewhat chilling cautionary tale; it just might have been more chilling if he had been a little less cautious." |
James Rocchi |
Splat 0/5 |
Happily N'Ever After (2007) |
"Nothing much of any import or interest happens to get us to the end we predicted within the first two minutes, so if for some masochistic reason you do let your kid drag you to this, this would be a good time to catch a nap." |
Kim Voynar |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Happy Feet (2006) |
"I'm surprised they didn't end it with the whole world holding hands and singing "Kumbayah" while the penguins tap-danced in unison with Al Gore." |
Kim Voynar |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Happy-Go-Lucky (2008) |
"Hawkins is delightful, connecting with the audience when a lesser actress would have been merely cloying in the role." |
Kim Voynar |
Tomato 3/5 |
Hard Candy (2005) |
"The film's strength is in the way it continually sustains suspense, particularly in the use of sound effects. Very little is shown, but much is heard." |
Jette Kernion |
Splat |
Hardware (1990) |
"...a worthy film to revisit primarily to see how well it fueled our feverish imaginations before it fell to the wayside." |
Todd Gilchrist |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008) |
"The HIGHly-anticipated sequel to 2004's Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle comes just how you'd expect it: raunchy, wild, disgusting and completely absurd." |

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009) |

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009) |
"(International) Trailer Bulletin: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" |
Erik Davis |
Tomato 4/5 |
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009) |
"A tight suspense film that isn't too scary for kids, with a good dose of humor, Young Love, and charm." |
Jette Kernion |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) |
"More suspense than the other films in the series ... and an improvement upon the book from which it was adapted." |
Jette Kernion |
Tomato 4/5 |
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) |
"Though it feels a bit understated from time to time, "Harry Potter and Order of the Phoenix" is a solid, enjoyable addition to the Harry Potter franchise." |
Kim Voynar |
Tomato 4/5 |
Hatchet (2007) |
"Feels like an old-school slasher flick that's been hidden on a dusty shelf for the past twenty years. And yes, I mean that as a compliment." |
Scott Weinberg |
Splat |
The Haunting in Connecticut (2009) |
"Here, we're subjected to a score that's about as content with how these actual events might've actually rolled out as we are, and it's a pity that quick cuts and loud noises are once again the name of the game." |
William Goss |
Splat D+ |
The Haunting of Molly Hartley (2008) |
"I've read fortune cookies that were scarier, not to mention smarter and more interesting." |
Eric D. Snider |
Splat 0/4 |
The Heartbreak Kid (2007) |
"The Heartbreak Kid is a shabby, sleazy train wreck ... and anyone who backed it ... before its being made or rewards it with money or acclaim upon its release should feel, if they can feel at all, something like shame." |
James Rocchi |
Tomato 3/5 |
Heavy Metal In Baghdad (2008) |
"... Heavy Metal in Baghdad shows a sliver of the impact the war in Iraq has had on the regular people living there who simply long to have the freedoms we have here." |
Kim Voynar |

Hell Ride (2008) |
"I get tired of forced cleverness and genre deconstructions, and I have little patience for films whose lousiness is their selling point. If you can do a good job of making a bad movie, why not go the extra mile and make a good one?" |
Eric D. Snider |
Splat 2/5 |
Hell Ride (2008) |
"Anyone who isn't full-throttle fascinated with outlaw biker culture and coasting on their hazy memories of motorcycle-gang flicks of the past will probably realize early on, as I did, that Hell Ride is running on fumes without a real destination in mind." |
James Rocchi |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Hell's Ground (2007) |
"So while you're being assaulted with ideas, characters and monsters that are clearly 'borrowed' from other sources, well, it's just quite the novelty to witness Pakistan's first gore movie." |
Scott Weinberg |
Tomato 4/5 |
Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008) |
"I stumbled out of Hellboy II: The Golden Army feeling as if my imagination had eaten too much ... And yet, Hellboy II has more than a little heart to it; it's scrappy and self-aware, and never out of touch with what it is." |
James Rocchi |
Tomato 4/5 |
Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008) |
"Imagine one of the Star Trek crews transported to Tolkien's Middle Earth, or Buffy and her Scooby gang whisked away into the heart of Narnia." |
Jette Kernion |
Splat 2.5/5 |
High School Musical 2 (2007) |
"Heck, it could be worse: It could be an Olsen Twins movie." |
Scott Weinberg |
Splat 2/5 |
High School Musical 3: Senior Year (2008) |
"The generic-sounding pop numbers made me nostalgic for "Rock 'n' Roll High School" and The Ramones." |
Jette Kernion |
Splat |
The Hills Run Red (2009) |
"The Hills Run Red is an example of the kind of horror movie that gets a pass from forgiving genre fans, but its clumsy, obvious execution will otherwise not likely entertain (much less scare) anyone else." |
Todd Gilchrist |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Hip Hop Project (2007) |
"[A] powerful and, if we're lucky, influential documentary." |
Christopher Campbell |
Splat 1.5/5 |
Hitman (2007) |
"Hitman feels like twenty short films played back to back, only a few of the mini-movies went missing, and the projectionist is hoping you won't notice." |

Hoot (2006) |
"A safe, slight film that doesn't possess the chaotic hilarity I associate with Carl Hiaasen's best writing." |
Jette Kernion |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Host (2007) |
"The Host may be lumpy and bumpy, but it's also one of the freshest monster movies we've had in decades -- and, to any creature-feature buff, a rocket-ride blast of the highest order." |
James Rocchi |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Hot Rod (2007) |
"While certainly not on the same sub-level as the other SNL flicks, Hot Rod is more like 25% inspired weirdness and 75% recycled stuff." |
Scott Weinberg |
Splat 1.5/5 |
Hotel for Dogs (2009) |
"Grownup audience members may fidget more than their kids." |
Jette Kernion |

Hounddog (2008) |
"[Fanning] has the talent, in abundance. Let's see it put to use in better films going forward." |

The House of the Devil (2009) |
"You have to wait for The House of the Devil to deliver on its promises -- but when it does, holy crap." |
Eric D. Snider |

House of the Sleeping Beauties (2007) |
"If ever there was a paradigm of insufferable European art-house pretentiousness, this is it." |
Nick Schager |
Tomato 4/5 |
How To Eat Your Watermelon in White Company (And Enjoy It) (2005) |
"A phenomenal outline of [Melvin Van Peeble's] prolific and varied life." |
Christopher Campbell |
Splat |
The Human Centipede (First Sequence) (2009) |
"...the kind of cult sensation that earns immortality on the merits of its gobsmacking levels of gore, despite the fact that all in all it's really not a very good film." |
Todd Gilchrist |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Humble Pie (2009) |
"Admirably matter-of-fact about its antagonist and his ceaseless barrage of emotional road blocks. (Plus it's funny.)" |
Scott Weinberg |

Hunger (2008) |
"It's a brilliant portrayal of a tragic moment in human history." |
