Apollo 13 (1995) |
"Apollo 13 avoids becoming propaganda, or a masturbatory industrial film for NASA, by focusing on the story's human element." |
|
Splat |
Anne Frank Remembered (1995) |
"Anne Frank Remembered tells the audience very little about Anne, but the film speaks volumes concerning the problematic aspects of Holocaust representation." |
|
Tomato |
Anne Frank Remembered (1995) |
"The interviews constitute the emotional backbone. The mere existence of these survivors is eloquent testimony to events so cruel they defy belief." |
|
Splat |
Apt Pupil (1998) |
"Nothing about the movie even makes sense!" |
|
Alien Trespass (2009) |
"It achieves its hokiness by design, which renders it artificial and flat." |
||
All About Steve (2009) |
"My biggest surprise is scanning the credits and not seeing the name Wayans or Prinze Jr. anywhere." |
||
Astro Boy (2009) |
|||
Splat |
American Pie (1999) |
"The actors are pure Hollywood, with every grin, spoken line, or sad face springing from acting classes and the closely studied performances of other actors." |
|
Tomato |
Animal Factory (2000) |
"The bleakness and myriad cruelties of the prison system are telegraphed with a graceful touch." |
|
Splat |
Antitrust (2001) |
"It's a giggle-fest to watch (and there are a handful of tense moments, to be fair), but there's no getting away from the fact that this film is irreparably infected with weak writing, acting and directing." |
|
Tomato |
"A funnier, tighter film than its predecessor!" |
||
Splat |
Anna and the King (1999) |
"Tennant seems genuinely unsure what mood he's striving for here." |
|
Splat |
The Astronaut's Wife (1999) |
"Languorous and oddly detached." |
|
Tomato |
Anne Frank Remembered (1995) |
"Anne's story of courage in the face of horrendous circumstances is a fine legacy, and Anne Frank Remembered reaffirms how relevant her message is today." |
|
Splat |
Alien 3 (1992) |
"May satisfy fans of the earlier films ... but it won't win any new converts." |
|
Tomato |
Alien Resurrection (1997) |
"So campy that it almost plays like a sendup of the series. It is to 'Alien' what 'The Bride of Frankenstein' was to other 1930s Frankenstein movies, and it even shares some of the same themes." |
|
Tomato |
Aliens (1986) |
""Absolutely smashing!"" |
|
Splat |
All Over Me (1997) |
"Less successful at portraying indecision than it is at inducing boredom." |
|
Tomato |
The American President (1995) |
"Painless fun." |
|
Splat |
Anna and the King (1999) |
"Disappointing." |
|
Tomato |
Anne Frank Remembered (1995) |
"Of all the movies and television productions that have told her story, this is the most valuable and satisfying." |
|
Splat |
Armageddon (1998) |
"The only compelling lure is the special effects, which are sometimes impressive, sometimes transparent, yet somehow always inadequate to the apocalyptic task at hand." |
|
Tomato |
As Good as It Gets (1997) |
"A fairy-tale heartwarmer." |
|
Tomato |
Antonia's Line (1995) |
"This is the rare film that does actually succeed in suggesting the experience of a lifetime." |
|
Across the Universe (2007) |

After The Wedding (2007) |

Alice Neel (2007) |
|||
American Casino (2009) |

An Education (2009) |

Angels & Demons (2009) |

Tomato |
Anne Frank Remembered (1995) |
"If this is not the best film about the Holocaust, it does strongly chronicle the sad fate of one of its most famous victims." |
|
Tomato |
"The year's one clear candidate for future cult status." |
||
Tomato |
Anne Frank Remembered (1995) |
"In retracing the short life and grotesque death of the century's best known diarist, Anna Frank, it has its own private dignity." |
|
Tomato |
Antonia's Line (1995) |
"It's an ambitious project, this telling of a whole life as well as its consequences, and Gorris manages to pull it off." |
|
"...probably the purest expression of Gilliam's Rococo imagination..." |
|||
Tomato |
Alien Resurrection (1997) |
"A lot of fun to watch, and easy to surrender to in the moment." |
|
Splat |
The Animal (2001) |
"It's just not funny." |
|
Tomato |
As Good as It Gets (1997) |
"Utterly false, like all sitcoms, but that's not necessarily a terrible thing." |
|
Tomato |
As Good as It Gets (1997) |
"An actor's movie full of little pleasures, with a few unexpected sparks." |
|
Tomato |
American History X (1998) |
"American History X pulls open the wound of American racism and peers inside!" |
|
Tomato |
The American President (1995) |
"The American President becomes a pretty darn entertaining and affecting movie after its first simpering 20 minutes." |
|

A Tribute to Stanley Kubrick (1999) |
||
Tomato |
Aimee & Jaguar (2000) |
"Its series of quiet but moving realizations of the utter ubiquity of the Nazi horror in every single aspect of life, even something as hidden as a sexual sub-culture, is powerful indeed." |
|
Tomato |
All About My Mother (1999) |
"Nothing short of a triumph." |
|
Tomato |
American Beauty (1999) |
"Hilarious, slightly sick, and super-edgy." |
|
Tomato |
American Psycho (2000) |
"Harron's adaptation of Ellis's novel is brilliant, probably better than the book itself." |
|
Tomato |
Amores Perros (2001) |
"Amores Perros (Love's a Bitch) is a great new film from Mexico that proves that somebody, somewhere, is still making upsetting, enthralling movies." |
