Tomato
B+

K-19: The Widowmaker (2002)

"If you enjoy the tense claustrophobia of submarine thrillers, K-19 fills the bill."

Bruce Westbrook

Splat

K-Pax (2001)

"As billowy as a pillow."

Eric Harrison

Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love (1997)

Tomato
B+

Kandahar (2001)

"The film is best appreciated as an open-ended 'fictional documentary' rather than a conventional feature with a beginning, middle and end."

Eric Harrison

Splat

Kansas City (1996)

"Let's just say that if you find it arbitrary and more an expression of Altman's feelings about class than the outcome of his story, then we are in agreement."

Jeff Millar

Tomato

Kate and Leopold (2001)

"For reactionary propaganda, the movie admittedly is fun, in a modest way."

Eric Harrison

Tomato

Keep the River on Your Right: A Modern Cannibal Tale (2001)

"Schneebaum, a dull and helpless-looking nonentity at first glance, proves to be an amazingly courageous, inquisitive, remarkable man."

Louis B. Parks

-

The Keeper (1996)

Tomato
3/4

The Keeper: The Legend of Omar Khayyam (2005)

"An accomplished first film that manages to comment on the current situation in the Middle East while dealing movingly -- and in very human terms -- with the importance of heritage and history in contemporary life."

Eric Harrison

Tomato

Keeping the Faith (2000)

"The ending gets a little too cute, and isn't true to Anna's independent nature. Oh well, to forgive is divine."

Louis B. Parks

Tomato
3/4

Keeping Up With The Steins (2006)

"A winningly sincere and warmly humorous film about an ancient Jewish milestone in the time of Martha Stewart."

Amy Biancolli

Splat
1.5/4

Kekexeli: Mountain Patrol (2006)

"Instead of a laudable ecological crusade, the film feels more like a futile Captain Ahab obsession, with patrol leader Ri Tai (Duobujie) vainly chasing a poaching kingpin through the harsh, windy wilderness."

Bruce Westbrook

Tomato
2.5/4

Kicking and Screaming (2005)

"Most of the time, [the kids] go along. Most of the time we do, too."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato
A-

The Kid Stays in the Picture (2002)

"It's Hollywood navel-gazing at its best."

Bruce Westbrook

Kids in America (2005)

Kikujiro (2000)

Tomato
A

Kill Bill Vol. 1 (2003)

"Despite a draggy section and a problem with proportion, Kill Bill bristles with such vitality it hardly matters that -- at least at the halfway point -- it feels inconsequential."

Eric Harrison

Tomato
B

Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004)

"Though much of the film is a lot of fun, it needs a good editor."

Eric Harrison

Splat
2/4

The King (2006)

"The web gets more tangled until, midway through, the drama drops and the film becomes yet another bloody horror show."

Bruce Westbrook

-

The King and I (1999)

Click here to see the review.

Tomato
B+

King Arthur (2004)

"One of the reasons this film works is that we don't feel as if we're watching these people through the scrim of history and legend -- they feel immediate, even contemporary."

Eric Harrison

Tomato
3/4

King Kong (2005)

"Too big for its own good, too pure of heart to diminish, brawling, magnificent, heroic and flawed: That's King Kong, and that's King Kong."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato
3/4

King of California (2007)

"Writer-director Mike Cahill explores Charlie's foolishness with funny-sad fondness."

Bruce Westbrook

Tomato
3/4

The King Of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (2007)

"Nerds rule."

Bruce Westbrook

-

The King of Masks (1996)

Splat
2.5/4

The Kingdom (2007)

"It's clear that Berg wants to humanize the Saudis, but I suspect much of this nuance will get blown to smithereens in a firestorm of bullets."

Amy Biancolli

Splat

Kingdom Come (2001)

"As well done as this film is in places, though, it's hard to be forgiving amid diarrhea jokes, hectoring, high-strung drama queens and heavy-set ladies swinging purses."

Eric Harrison

Tomato
3/4

Kingdom of Heaven (2005)

"A $130 million epic with much to marvel at and great battle scenes, but it dazzles the senses while barely touching the heart."

Eric Harrison

Splat
2.5/4

Kinky Boots (2006)

"It's a predictable and preachy stab at a comedy with heart, and its subversive silliness is eclipsed by an overwrought humanity."

Bruce Westbrook

Splat
2/4

Kinsey (2004)

"The biopic succumbs to a paint-by-numbers feel as it dutifully touches the highs and lows of a life that can't easily fit within two hours."

Eric Harrison

Tomato
A

Kirikou and the Sorceress (1998)

"Should appeal to younger children and to adults who can appreciate its quiet pleasures."

Eric Harrison

Tomato
2.5/4

Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang (2005)

"Kiss Kiss may not smack of the truth or invite analysis, but in a warped way it gets the freaky job done."

Bruce Westbrook

-

Kiss Me Guido (1997)

Splat

Kiss of the Dragon (2001)

"While the stunts are subdued, the gore, carnage and brutality are as over the top as Karyo's performance and role."

Eric Harrison

-

Kissed (1996)

Tomato
B+

Kissing Jessica Stein (2002)

"Westfeldt and Juergensen are both appealing actresses."

Eric Harrison

B-

Km. 0 (2003)

"Sweet, rambling but sometimes very funny comedy."

Eric Harrison

Splat

A Knight's Tale (2001)

"Spirited but uneven."

Louis B. Parks

Splat
C-

Knockaround Guys (2002)

"Even when the film turns serious, the filmmakers can't make up their minds about what kind of movie they're making."

Eric Harrison

Tomato
3/4

Knocked Up (2007)

"While Apatow's movie isn't perfect, it's still a fumbling and funny valentine to the shock of pregnancy, the reality of love and the chaos of all that comes after."

Amy Biancolli

Splat

Kundun (1997)

"Kundun is ceaselessly lovely to look at. But it is also exquisitely, meticulously, intently (gulp) ... dull."

Jeff Millar

Tomato
3/4

Kung Fu Hustle (2005)

"...the knockdown hilarity of it all made me wonder where this subgenre of martial-arts action flick might be heading. A lot of it is riotously funny."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato
3/4

Kung Fu Hustle (2005)

"...the knockdown hilarity of it all made me wonder where this subgenre of martial-arts action flick might be heading. A lot of it is riotously funny."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato
3.5/4

Kung Fu Panda (2008)

"The aphorisms creak. The plot's an open book. But all of those clichés are part of the joke in this ebullient ursine coming-of-age tale about a humble panda destined for greatness."

Amy Biancolli
