Splat 4/10
G-Force (2009)
"Not even remotely as bad as it could have been. Because, let's call a spade a spade: "sentient guinea pig spies" could easily have been just about the worst movie ever made."
Tim Brayton
Splat 1/10
G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009)
"A bit like having pieces of metal thrown at your face in a wind tunnel."
Tomato 7/10
George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead (2008)
"Even if it's the least brainy of Romero's zombie films, it might well be the scariest."
Splat 3/10
Georgia Rule (2007)
"A fluffy comedy about a young woman who was repeatedly raped by her stepfather."
Tomato 9/10
Get Carter (1971)
"Its finest triumph may be that it's still more immediate and brutal than almost any of the films that it inspired."
Tomato 6/10
Get Smart (2008)
"A pleasingly drowsy summer action comedy."
The Ghost Galleon (1975)
"It's not even "zombie movie good", thanks to one of the most hateful collections of a******s ever set against an undead army"
The Ghost of Frankenstein (1942)
"It gets the job done with admirable efficiency, no excess of imagination, and all in a compact 67-minute frame, and you really wouldn't want it to be any longer than that."
Ghost Town (2008)
"The film would rather give us an earned smile than strain fruitlessly for a guffaw, and its humor is much more dialogue- and character-driven than goofy"
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past (2009)
"Lose Michael Douglas and there is pretty much nothing about the movie that's appealing in even the smallest degree."
A Girl Cut in Two (2008)
"A fine character study with some exceptional performances...but there's no getting around the fact that it's a saggy affair in places."
The Girl From Monaco (2009)
"It's not at all as disposable as it seems at first glance."
The Girl Who Knew Too Much (1963)
"Plot and coherence aren't really so important as atmosphere and style and thrills, and these things [the film] possesses in abundance."
The Girlfriend Experience (2009)
"I do not know if history will judge this an important document of the Times In Which We Live, but it surely seems to me that it captured something vital."
Splat 5/10
The Golden Compass (2007)
"Covering too much ground in too little time leaves the film feeling shallow and inchoate."
Tomato 8/10
Gomorrah (2009)
"An unusually thought-provoking, annoying, difficult and ultimately unique work that might not be one of the year's best, but is surely among its most interesting."
Gone Baby Gone (2007)
"After a decade and a half of increasingly pointless acting jobs, Ben Affleck has finally found his calling."
Splat 2/10
Good Luck Chuck (2007)
"Only a truly unhappy, crabbed mind could possibly imagine most of these jokes."
The Good, the Bad, the Weird (2009)
"It's flawed, without question. But it also has more originality and invention than any given half-dozen films."
Goodbye Solo (2009)
"Hums with life and with good humor... a uniquely human-sized movie."
Goodbye, Mr. Chips (1939)
"Robert Donat at the peak of his skills... as moving today as it was upon its premiere."
The Gospel According to St. Matthew (1965)
"Beautifully retells a spiritual story without resorting to the overbearing piousness that makes most American Bible films such well-intentioned slogs."
Gran Torino (2008)
"It's undeniably hokey. But all pulp fiction is ultimately a little hokey, and that's usually why the makers of such movies compensate by bringing their A-game behind the camera."
The Grand (2008)
"There's nothing under the surface of the comedy, although it's rarely less than amusing and frequently hilarious."
Tomato 10/10
Grindhouse (2007)
"It is a movie about watching itself, and that is both solipsistic and pure genius."
Gunga Din (1939)
"One of the better adventure movies from the 1930s."
