The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009) |
"Scott, a sensationalist who cut his teeth in advertising and still looks upon every minute of a feature film as a TV commercial, hits us from the opening shot with speeded-up film, rapid cutting, flash pans, and rap music." |

Tales from the Golden Age (2009) |
"This is a low-key, deadpan movie and the jokes creep up on you." |
Philip French |
Splat |
Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006) |
"An inane parody of a triumphalist celebration of all-American sporting heroism." |
Philip French |
Tomato |
Taxi Driver (1976) |
"Martin Scorsese's masterly Taxi Driver both encapsulates and transcends its times." |
Philip French |
Tomato |
Taxidermia (2009) |
"It's an allegory of sorts, and very different from the fastidious golden age of Hungarian cinema in the Seventies and Eighties." |

Terminator Salvation (2009) |
"As in the previous two movies, there is, along with the extreme violence and destruction, a lot of wit in the proceedings." |
Philip French |
Splat |
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003) |
"Inevitably, given a bigger budget, it lacks the cheap, raw quality of the earlier film that, along with George Romero's outfit in Pennsylvania, showed you could make profitable exploitation shockers on an independent basis far from Hollywood." |

Thank You For Smoking (2006) |
"There's enough bite in the dialogue and performances to provoke a hacking cough of approval, and the laugh-out-loud moments are many, not least in scenes featuring Rob Lowe's unctuous Hollywood agent." |
Mark Kermode |
Splat |
The End (2009) |
"A movie that is non-judgmental to the point of celebration." |
Philip French |
Tomato |
Them (2007) |
"Effective in an unambitious way, it gives a new meaning to 'Boys in the Hood'." |
Philip French |
Tomato |
The Thing (1982) |
"An accomplished horror movie." |
Philip French |
Splat |
Thirst (2009) |
"A truly bizarre movie, a tragicomedy that Graham Greene might have written in collaboration with Bram Stoker. But it's repetitive and overstays its initial welcome." |
Philip French |

This Film is Not Yet Rated (2006) |
"This is an amusing film, less smart and provocative than its makers take it to be, and thin on sustained, rational argument and international perspective." |
Peter Bradshaw |
Tomato |
Three Monkeys (2009) |
"This is a film of formidable power that sticks in the mind." |

The Time Traveler's Wife (2009) |
"It's even more inane and sitting up begging to be loved than Benjamin Button." |

Tomato |
Timecrimes (2008) |
"The first feature by a promising young director who doesn't know how to recapture the hare he has let loose." |
Philip French |

TMNT (2007) |
"Children may well like it, but they deserve better." |
Philip French |
Tomato |
Tormented (2009) |
"It's well enough made, fairly inventive and the bullies practise safe sex. But the film tips its hand a little too early." |
Philip French |
Splat |
Training Day (2001) |
"The movie moves rapidly, is extremely violent and not entirely plausible." |

Traitor (2008) |
"A certain interest resides in the film's even-handedness." |

Transformers (2007) |
"The film goes on and on, it is unbearably loud, and much of the dialogue is impossible to hear." |
Philip French |
Splat |
The Transporter (2002) |
"Chases and choreographed fights set to rock music take up most of the running time and the movie is like To Catch a Thief remade by a hack follower of John Woo." |
Philip French |
Tomato |
The Travelling Players (1974) |
"A didactic, audacious, tendentious, highly original movie that justifies its great length." |
Philip French |
Tomato |
Triangle (2009) |
"It's creepy, atmospheric stuff and at every twist of this Möbius strip we wonder how Smith will keep things going. But he manages it with considerable skill and we leave his picture suitably shaken." |
Philip French |
Tomato |
Tricks (2007) |
"This is a sad, muted, delicately observed film with strong naturalistic performances." |

True North (2006) |
"The film has its moments, but it's a crude, none-too-convincing piece of work that fudges some serious issues." |
Philip French |
Tomato |
Tsotsi (2006) |
"This deceptively simple movie brings to mind Italian neo-realist classics of the 1940s, and Presley Chweneyagae, an amateur actor, is wholly convincing as the disoriented Tsotsi." |
Peter Bradshaw |
Tomato |
The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009) |
"The film takes itself rather earnestly, the heroine is more than half in love with easeful death, and the lighting by Spanish ace cinematographer Javier Aguirresarobe is impressive." |
Philip French |
Tomato |
Two or Three Things I Know About Her (1967) |
"It's a pivotal film made in the summer of 1966, more essay than narrative, about alienation in consumer society and anticipating the mood and ideas that brought about les événements of 1968." |

Tyson (2009) |
"A documentary that is as near to an honest apologia as we're ever likely to get. It's a fascinating story, though not a pretty one." |
