I Am Legend (1994)
"It's ghostly, ghastly, and beautiful...less a knockout punch than a hushed action flick that creeps up on you from behind and throws a bag over your head."
Amy Nicholson

I Love You, Beth Cooper (2009)
"If watching this makes you long to be young again, you probably grew up in an Algerian prison."
I Want Someone to Eat Cheese With (2007)
"The more James groans to an unsympathetic ear, "Why would they remake Marty--it's timeless?" we wonder why Garlin didn't take his own advice"
Splat C+
Igor (2008)
"A modest do-gooder trying to pretend that its not Cartoonland's most direct attack of the Bush administration."
The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (2009)
"If he had lived, Ledger would be glad to see his name in the credits."
Tomato A+
In Bruges (2008)
"A film that's so bloody wonderful (in both meanings of the word) that all other movies this year might as well go straight to video."
In the Shadow of the Moon (2007)
"The crowd-pleaser has enough ambition to pitch a one-size-fits-all philosophy based on the Apollo crew's revelation that looking down from space, our problems seem trivial."
Splat C
The Incredible Hulk (2008)
"When the Hulk turns back, he often finds himself naked, aching, and disoriented in Guatemala, the fate of many a Spring Breaker"
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)
"Indy isn't boning up on Babylonian texts; he's leafing through the Weekly World News."
Tomato A-
Infamous (2006)
"This worthy second biopic of Truman Capote starts not with a bloodbath, but a cocktail."
Inglourious Basterds (2009)
"Basterds isn't a deep film -- honestly, what Tarantino flick is? -- but it has moments as sharp as a bayonet and as perverse as war itself."
Inkheart (2009)
"We leave doubly convinced that words are better left squat, inert, and black on the page"
The International (2009)
"No matter how slick the film looks -- every cool-toned frame could transform into a Lexus commercial -- the undercurrent is very, very real, by which I mean hopeless"
Into the Wild (2007)
"Penn's main idea about going native is making eye contact with a deer."
Tomato B-
Ira & Abby (2007)
"An odd love poem for cynics who have thrown sentimentality into the garbage."
It's Complicated (2009)
"There are four reasons to see this movie and writer-director Nancy Meyers isn't one."
