Rating Title Year Quote Author

Splat

Rails & Ties (2007)

"Watching it feels a little like being slowly smothered by a soft pillow, while your killer won't shut up about his inability to share his feelings."

Dawn Taylor

Tomato

Raise the Red Lantern (1991)

"A near-perfect movie that often recalls the visual purity and intensity of silent films."

John Hartl

Tomato

Ran (1985)

"It has become a cliche to call Kurosawa the world's greatest living filmmaker."

John Hartl

Splat

Random Hearts (1999)

"Enormously boring."

Tom Keogh

Tomato

Ratcatcher (2000)

"The bleakness of the material ought to make Ratcatcher a depressing experience, yet Ramsay's power as an image-crafter transforms this grim universe."

Robert Horton

Splat

Ready to Rumble (2000)

"Comic virtues linger in the memory a little longer than the farcical brutality of this pandering noisefest. Not that that's a significant victory."

Tom Keogh

Tomato

Rear Window (1954)

"Although it's an intensely intimate film, there's something special about taking your seat in the theater as though you're pulling up right next to L.B. Jefferies (James Stewart)."

Elizabeth Weitzman

Tomato

Recess: School's Out (2001)

"An amusing little cartoon for graduates of Rugrats territory."

Sean Means

Tomato

Red (1994)

"What makes Red watchable is Kieslowski's arresting visual sense."

John Hartl

Splat

Red Planet (2000)

"Despite the persuasive scenery, director Antony Hoffman can't figure out a way to build scenes, or momentum, or much of anything."

Robert Horton

Splat

Reindeer Games (2000)

"It just vanishes from between your ears like cotton-candy in a tropical rainstorm, leaving nothing but a slightly sickly aftertaste."

Gemma Files

Tomato

Reindeer Games (2000)

"Frankenheimer does make Reindeer Games a bigger experience than it might have been in anyone else's hands."

Tom Keogh

Tomato

Religulous (2008)

"Maher is essentially and professionally a comic, and the measure of this movie is not just the thoughts it provokes but the laughs it generates."

Jonathan F. Richards

Splat

Remember the Titans (2000)

"I didn't believe the movie, or my tears, for a second."

Peter Brunette

Tomato

Remember the Titans (2000)

"Startlingly resonant yet unabashedly entertaining."

Tom Keogh

Splat

The Replacements (2000)

"The Replacements, as with just about everything else coming out of Hollywood, merely reconfigures the same predictable gross-out jokes, sentimental platitudes, and decorative sex that figure into half the screenplays in circulation."

Tom Keogh

Splat

Requiem for a Dream (2000)

"[Aronofsky] shoots himself in the foot repeatedly."

Ernest Hardy

Tomato

Requiem for a Dream (2000)

"This is like no other film you've ever seen."

Peter Brunette

Tomato

Rescue Dawn (2007)

"Herzog builds this movie around another strong, eccentric performance from Bale, who is gaining a reputation for outsized talent and for downsized physicality."

Jonathan F. Richards

Tomato

Reservoir Dogs (1992)

"It's extremely well-acted, written with flair and directed by a 29-year-old first-timer, Quentin Tarantino, who always knows where to put the camera, when to cut to a flashback and how to draw the best work from his brilliant cast."

John Hartl

Tomato

Return of the Jedi (1983)

"A mediocre Star Wars is better than no Star Wars at all."

Sean Means

Splat

Return to Me (2000)

"Duchovny is surprisingly out-of-joint with the romantic atmosphere."

Robert Horton

Tomato

Revolutionary Road (2008)

"If Revolutionary Road had been filmed back in 1961, when the novel came out, it would have been timely and powerful."

Jonathan F. Richards

Tomato

Ride with the Devil (1999)

"Ang Lee is amazing."

Peter Brunette

Tomato
B

The Road (2009)

"This year's entry in the Movies You Admire and Respect but Don't Ever Want to Watch Again Sweepstakes."

Eric D. Snider

Tomato

The Road to El Dorado (2000)

"[Kline's and Branagh's] shared timing is so good it whets the appetite for further adventures."

Robert Horton

Splat

The Road to El Dorado (2000)

"For a movie about 'discovering' the New World, The Road to El Dorado covers a lot of familiar territory."

Sean Means

Splat

Road Trip (2000)

"As objectionable as its subject matter is, the most objectionable thing is that it's not funny."

Sean Means

Tomato

Roman de Gare (2008)

"Lelouch is now 71 years old, and I bet he's never had as much fun with a film. Roman de Gare threads plots and characters and twists together like a demented weaver."

Jonathan F. Richards

Tomato

Romance & Cigarettes (2007)

"In a season seasoned with off-beat originality in the movies, from Lars and the Real Girl to I'm Not There, you still have not seen anything quite like John Turturro's extraordinary Romance and Cigarettes."

Jonathan F. Richards

Tomato

Romeo Must Die (2000)

"Romeo Must Die scores when it concentrates on Li's fast footwork and flying fists."

Sean Means

Splat

Romy and Michele's High School Reunion (1997)

"For all its bright moments, 91 minutes turns out to be more than this joke can sustain."

John Hartl

Tomato

Romy and Michele's High School Reunion (1997)

"Isn't so much a movie as an overly long pilot episode of some new "Must See TV'' sitcom."

Sean Means

Tomato

Ronin (1998)

"A cunning spy thriller!"

Sean Means

Splat

Rugrats in Paris (2000)

"Watching Rugrats In Paris ... I am forced to ask myself exactly what range of kids this kiddie movie is actually being pitched at."

Gemma Files

Tomato

Rules of Engagement (2000)

"What rescues the movie, time and again, is the strength of Jones' and Jackson's performances ... and the capable direction of William Friedkin."

John Hartl

Splat

Rules of Engagement (2000)

"Nothing can redeem this film's deep immorality."

Peter Brunette

Tomato

Rumble in the Bronx (1996)

"Awe-inspiring."

Bruce Reid

Tomato

Rumble in the Bronx (1996)

"As the star cheerfully camouflages massive bandages on a twisted ankle, we also get a glimpse of just how far Chan is willing to go to please his audience."

John Hartl

Tomato

Rumble in the Bronx (1996)

"Chan, doing everything at once including all his own stunts, has an infectious energy that will help to remind you why you love movies."

Keith Simanton

Tomato

Rumble in the Bronx (1996)

"The fun of Rumble in the Bronx is watching Chan build up one inventive and off-the-wall action scene after another."

Sean Means

Tomato

Rumble in the Bronx (1996)

"The very medium of the moving picture exists to create the suspension of disbelief, and there is no greater live performer than Chan to make us believe you can beat up a street gang with a linen jacket and refrigerators."

Shannon Gee

Tomato

Run Lola Run (1999)

"Run Lola Run's power isn't in celebrating the giddy mixture of testosterone, drugs and new youth culture (i.e., electronica), but in taking the oldest of questions..."

Ernest Hardy

Tomato

Run Lola Run (1999)

"Run Lola Run is the feverish, wish-fulfillment embodiment of everyone's unspoken dream..."

Gemma Files

Splat

Run Lola Run (1999)

"In fact, it turns out, not surprisingly, that it is boring to watch someone run for 87 minutes..."

Peter Brunette

Splat

Runaway Bride (1999)

"Runaway Bride is an atrocious bit of by-the-numbers screen filler."

Ernest Hardy

Splat

Runaway Bride (1999)

"It looks as if Julia and the horse were trying to get the hell away from the camera, and into a better movie."

Moira MacDonald

Splat

Runaway Bride (1999)

"Safe and sane and bland."

Robert Horton

Splat

Rush Hour (1998)

"So why is that when Chan makes a real Hollywood movie the results are so disappointing?"

Sean Means
