Tomato

Calle 54 (2001)

"Descriptions of great art are, of course, ultimately irrelevant, and Trueba knew we'd have to experience his passion for ourselves. He's offering a dazzling invitation -- take him up on it."

Elizabeth Weitzman

Splat
C-

Capitalism: A Love Story (2009)

"Has only a few traces of Moore's wit and humor, and they're nearly lost in the fog of his indignation."

Eric D. Snider

Tomato

Casablanca (1942)

"From the absolute crispness and clarity of the first image ... this clean, practically flawless 1080p transfer is now the definitive home video edition."

Mark Bourne

Tomato

Cassandra's Dream (2008)

"There are shivers of humor from time to time, but the mask in place here is the mask of tragedy."

Jonathan F. Richards

Tomato

Cast Away (2000)

"Worth the trip."

Sean Means

Splat

The Caveman's Valentine (2001)

"Ambitious and more than a little tedious."

Robert Horton

Splat

Cecil B. Demented (2000)

"Hamstrung by a script that is too often smug, obvious and self-important -- all qualities that Waters used to lampoon mercilessly."

Ernest Hardy

Tomato

Cecil B. Demented (2000)

"A small, scruffy, but agreeably energized comedy."

Robert Horton

Tomato

The Cell (2000)

"[The visuals are] just enough to recommend a movie that otherwise has nothing new to offer."

Ernest Hardy

Splat

The Cell (2000)

"The consistent emphasis on visual over story logic and character considerations, along with certain weaknesses already inherent in Mark Protosevich's script, gradually undermine the whole enchilada from the bottom on up."

Gemma Files

Splat

The Center of the World (2001)

"Everyone involved is capable of more interesting work than this."

Robert Horton

Tomato

Center Stage (2000)

"Embarrassingly enjoyable."

Robert Horton

Tomato

Central Station (1998)

"What gives the film its strength is that cutting away the first layer only reveals more levels of toughness; it takes time to discover the pure soul beneath."

Lucy Mohl

Splat

Central Station (1998)

"its blatantly manipulative pairing of an adorable young boy and a selfish, honesty-challenged older woman ... so calculating that I could never get emotionally involved."

Peter Brunette

Tomato

La Ceremonie (1996)

"Chabrol's most accomplished and popular movie in decades."

John Hartl

Tomato

La Ceremonie (1996)

"Chabrol's metier has always been tracing the cracks in the old family china, and this movie presents a brittle set, indeed."

Robert Horton

Splat
C

Changeling (2008)

"How could a story as genuinely bizarre as this one seem so generic and rambling on the screen?"

Eric D. Snider

Splat

Changeling (2008)

" Eastwood, who has made fine movies in recent years, has got hold of a humdinger of a story. But he's too detached and lazy here."

Jonathan F. Richards

Tomato

Charlie Wilson's War (2007)

"Nichols and Sorkin have made a Cadillac of a movie, a handsome, beautifully designed chassis with a powerful motor and luxurious attention to detail."

Jonathan F. Richards

Splat

Charlie's Angels (2000)

"An amiable mess."

Moira MacDonald

Tomato

Charlie's Angels (2000)

"Charlie's Angels is something rare: a mess of a movie that is somehow infectious, and infectious not despite the mess, but because of it."

Robert Horton

Tomato

Chasing Amy (1997)

"The script eventually gets beyond the pop-culture jokes and starts dealing frankly and intelligently with the problems of three people who are defined by their pasts."

John Hartl

Tomato

Chasing Amy (1997)

"It's too loud, sometimes, and it's always pushy, but it's got heart."

Mary Brennan

Tomato

Chasing Amy (1997)

"What Smith does best in Chasing Amy is write clever, raunchy and emotionally true-to-life dialogue, particularly in the arguments between Holden and Alyssa."

Sean Means

Splat

Che (2008)

"There is precious little in these movies to fill out our understanding of what it was that made Che a rebel, a leader of men, and the repository of the romantic dreams of several generations of armchair revolutionaries"

Jonathan F. Richards

Tomato

Chicken Run (2000)

"You'll want to see Chicken Run more than once."

John Hartl

Tomato

Chicken Run (2000)

"Chicken Run rules the roost."

Sean Means

Tomato

Chicken Run (2000)

"A triumph for Park and Lord."

Tom Keogh

Splat

Chill Factor (1999)

"Instantly disposable!"

John Hartl

Splat

Chill Factor (1999)

"Chill Factor isn't a bad action movie -- it's just an utterly forgettable one."

Sean Means

Tomato

Chocolat (2000)

"A dream suitable for sharing or clutching greedily to one's bosom -- like a chocolate box."

Tom Keogh

Tomato

Chuck & Buck (2000)

"It's poignant, laugh-out-loud funny and thoroughly provocative."

Ernest Hardy

Tomato

Chuck & Buck (2000)

"The movie is so assured, so daring and successful on its own terms, that it can make ordinary cinematic beauty seem skin-deep."

John Hartl

Splat

The Cider House Rules (1999)

"Perceived as too soft by some and too weird and kinky by even more."

Peter Brunette

Splat

The Cider House Rules (1999)

"Misses Irving's main gifts, despite his own best scriptwriting intentions."

Robert Horton

Tomato

Cinderella Man (2005)

"The joy is in the playing, and Ron Howard pulls out all the stops like the organist at the old Madison Square Garden."

Jonathan F. Richards

Tomato

Cinema Paradiso (1989)

"Anyone who feels as attached to the history of movies as Tornatore obviously does, there are more than enough irresistible moments."

John Hartl

Tomato

The Circle (2001)

"One of the most courageous, hard-hitting films I've seen in a long time."

Peter Brunette

Tomato

City Lights (1931)

"That final scene. Last week, CNN asked -- in "The Screening Room's Top 10 Romantic Moments" -- whether this was the most touching film moment of all time. Could be. Either way, if it doesn't move you, you're beyond human reach."

Mark Bourne

Tomato

The Claim (2001)

"A thoughtful, unexpectedly moving survey of the emotional and spiritual fall-out of greed, impetuousness and love sold cheap."

Ernest Hardy

Splat

The Claim (2001)

"Seems suffocated by its sources."

Robert Horton

Tomato

Class (1983)

" Director Laurent Cantet has pulled together a story that feels startlingly authentic, using Mike Leigh-like methods of extensive improvisation with a cast of real inner-city kids and a real teacher. To paraphrase the Buck Owens/Beatles hit, all they had"

Jonathan F. Richards

Tomato

The Class (2008)

"But ultimately it's a fascinating, sometimes exhilarating movie that seems to make a genuine contact with the classroom, and shows us an educational system struggling, and managing, to survive."

Jonathan F. Richards

Tomato

Clear and Present Danger (1994)

"[Noyce] dramatizes Tom Clancy's obsessively detailed plot in a straightforward fashion while staging spectacular showpieces of action."

Lucy Mohl

Tomato

Clerks (1994)

"At 24, Smith also knows something about casting. Using a mixture of stage actors and novices, he's found the right ensemble tone to make Clerks seem as spontaneous as it needs to be."

John Hartl

Splat
D

The Collector (2009)

"There's some torture, a lot of blood, some deaths, the usual routine, but without any suspense or ingenuity."

Eric D. Snider

Tomato

Colma: The Musical (2007)

"It's not a great film, but we sure enjoyed it more than many bigger films that try harder to convince us they're great."

Mark Bourne

Tomato

Committed (2000)

"Until it backs itself into a narrative corner, Lisa Krueger's Committed. is a delightfully unpredictable experience."

Robert Horton

Splat

Company Man (2001)

"Well-intentioned but utterly misguided."

Elizabeth Weitzman

Splat
D-

Confessions of a Shopaholic (2009)

"When is the right time to release a hollow, one-dimensional, unfunny, illogical, mindless comedy with a poorly defined protagonist and a dumbly formulaic plot?"

Eric D. Snider
