Tomato

W. (2008)

"Oliver Stone’s W – his best film since Nixon and proof that love-hate portraiture inspires him to a higher artistry than liberal polemicising."

Nigel Andrews

Tomato

Waitress (2007)

"You need a hard stomach sometimes in American romcoms. Equally, though, you’d need a hard heart not to love the good humour, good intentions and grace-of-style of Adrienne Shelly’s farewell film."

Nigel Andrews

Splat

The Walker (2007)

"The Walker seems the work of a straight movie artist trying to “do” gay. There is no reality humanising the caricatural extremes."

Nigel Andrews

Splat

WALL-E (2008)

"It is delicious for 30 minutes. Then the plot starts."

Nigel Andrews

Splat

Watchmen (2009)

"So what is missing? A little of the original’s madness and a lot of its aesthetic high-wire walking."

Nigel Andrews

Tomato

The Wayward Cloud (2007)

"Characters make love, make meals, make conversation – though not much – and in moments of transcendence remake the world according to their fantasies and longings."

Nigel Andrews

Tomato
4/5

We Live in Public (2009)

"Another bizarre, bewitching tale from those that make up life in, on and around the worldwide web."

Nigel Andrews

Splat

We Own The Night (2007)

"Offers little that Scorsese doesn’t offer with more élan and wit."

Nigel Andrews

Splat

Wendy and Lucy (2008)

"Sensible people will see the film for what it is: Waiting for Dogot without Beckett... But you cannot argue with dog lovers: they see in a vacuum of nothingness an existential nirvana."

Nigel Andrews

Splat

What Just Happened (2008)

"Gags crash, timings tailspin, and celebrity guest stars (Bruce Willis, Sean Penn) wear the look that says, “I think we’ve come to the wrong party.”"

Nigel Andrews

Tomato

When Did You Last See Your Father? (2008)

"The film is sweet, simplified and a bit syrupy on the soundtrack."

Nigel Andrews

Splat
1/5

Where the Wild Things Are (2009)

"Shouldn’t therapy, at least in art for or about childhood, be fun? The book was entrancing. The book deserved better. Happily there is still time, before the world ends, for someone else to film it. For now: return to Sendak."

Nigel Andrews

Tomato
4/5

White Lightnin' (2009)

"In White Lightnin’, style and content meet, blend and writhe in the memory, a haunting nightmare."

Martin Hoyle

Tomato
5/5

The White Ribbon (2009)

"A film of subtle savagery and mordantly encompassing vision."

Nigel Andrews

2/5

Whiteout (2009)

"An uninspired thriller."

Splat

Who Killed Nancy? (2009)

"We get too little Sid here – not a smidgeon of his great rendering of “My way” – and too many partial “witnesses” who insist Sid couldn’t have done the crime."

Nigel Andrews

Splat

Wild Child (2009)

"The types are such extremes that the partisans in the audience will continue to hate American brats and English snobs respectively, rapprochement between two sets of caricatures seeming unlikely."

Martin Hoyle

Tomato

Withnail and I (1988)

"A modern classic? A brilliant vignette of a certain time and attitudes? A self-indulgent jeu d’esprit? One thing is certain: Richard E. Grant touched greatness."

Martin Hoyle

Tomato

Witnesses (2003)

"An engaging if somewhat inchoate drama set in the early years of Aids."

Karl French

Splat

The Women (2008)

"The Women has a cast to die for – Meg Ryan, Annette Bening, Candice Bergen, Carrie Fisher – in a film that dies before our eyes."

Nigel Andrews

Tomato

The Wrestler (2008)

"The platitude-intensive script by Robert Siegel would have been laughed off the screen without Rourke’s dogged grandeur."

Nigel Andrews
