4/4

Madagascar (2005)

"Brilliantly written, animated and performed, it not only bridges the child-adult divide, but also makes its kid-friendly humor smart in its own way."

Bruce Westbrook

Madame Sata (2003)

Tomato

Made (2001)

"Amusing in the offbeat humor that comes from the wackiness of odd but believable characters."

Louis B. Parks

Maelström (2002)

Tomato
4/4

Mafioso (1962)

"Mafioso may be 45 years old, but it's as bracingly relevant as anything else in theaters today. Even in the heat of a dry Sicilian summer, the film looks fresh as a lemon tree. And when you bite down hard, it's just as bitter."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato

Magnolia (1999)

"All the work is top-notch."

Jeff Millar

Splat
C

Maid in Manhattan (2002)

"Maybe this is why the movie isn't any good. Entertaining isn't its main function. It's designed to sell us a bill of goods."

Eric Harrison

Tomato

The Majestic (2001)

"[Darabont] makes us care about the characters and their dilemmas; he's made this old-fashioned tale vital and engaging."

Eric Harrison

-

Major Dundee (1965)

Splat

Maléna (2000)

"The result is like a bad novel in which the personalities and feelings of the characters are described to us rather than revealed through what they do."

Splat
C+

Malibu's Most Wanted (2003)

"Clumsy movie."

Eric Harrison

-

Mambo Italiano (2003)

Splat
2/4

Mamma Mia! (2008)

"If you're invited, you might as well enjoy yourself. Just don't say I didn't warn you. And don't you dare say I hate ABBA."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato
2.5/4

The Man (2005)

"The Man [is] a vehicle of canned comedic setups that yield a slight buzz of low-level, odd-coupling amusement and a few welcome spasms of belly laughs."

Amy Biancolli

Splat
C+

A Man Apart (2003)

"The movie has more than its share of action scenes, but they're grafted onto a gritty crime drama that has no room for outsized heroics."

Eric Harrison

Splat
C-

The Man from Elysian Fields (2002)

"This good-looking, well-acted but sloooow-moving film is a parable, and a rather obvious one at that."

Eric Harrison

Man of the Century (1999)

Tomato
2/4

Man of the House (2005)

"Though predictability runs all through this House, it works up a modest charm thanks to the emergence of likable, individualized characters."

Bruce Westbrook

Tomato
2.5/4

Man of the Year (2006)

"Man of the Year isn't Movie of the Year. It might have been an ironic condemnation of electoral fraud and the malignant sway of corporate profits. But for a while, anyway, it had my vote."

Amy Biancolli

Splat
C

Man on Fire (2004)

"The movie appeals to baser instincts, and Scott's heavy-handed button-pushing stacks the deck."

Eric Harrison

Splat

Man on the Moon (1999)

"The problem with this film is that the filmmakers want Kaufman to emerge as a kind of innocent while their biographical due diligence indicates that Kaufman was a head case."

Jeff Millar

Tomato
3.5/4

Man On Wire (2008)

"Though we know how it ends, it unfolds with suspense. And though it lacks any discussion of the towers' destruction, it succeeds as a tribute to their birth."

Amy Biancolli

-

The Man Who Copied (2005)

Tomato

The Man Who Cried (2001)

"Has a good story; a lush, tantalizing style and tone; and an excellent cast."

Louis B. Parks

Tomato
A

The Man Who Wasn't There (2001)

"Despite the movie's humor and sense of irony, it takes on a sense of somberness as it progresses."

Eric Harrison

Tomato
A-

The Man Without a Past (2003)

"Full of deadpan humor."

Eric Harrison

Tomato
A-

The Manchurian Candidate (2004)

"An even more powerful comment on its time than the movie on which it's based."

Eric Harrison

Tomato
B+

Manic (2003)

"Absorbing and occasionally disturbing film."

Eric Harrison

Tomato

Manny & Lo (1996)

"It is a slight enterprise, not always expert in its construction, but it is sweet without being cloying, and it is sentimental in beneficial ways."

Jeff Millar

Tomato

Mansfield Park (1999)

"While this version plays somewhat fast and loose with the original story, and even more so with the heroine's character, it is still much more Jane Austen than not."

Louis B. Parks

Tomato
3/4

March of the Penguins (2005)

"A rousing affirmation of nature's brilliance in the face of environmental challenge."

Bruce Westbrook

2.5/4

Marie Antoinette (2006)

"There's not much meat at this banquet, only sweets."

Amy Biancolli

Splat
1.5/4

Marilyn Hotchkiss' Ballroom Dancing and Charm School (2006)

"Beyond Wahlberg's deft moves, School's dancing is leaden, not charming, and the only challenge is enduring the film's lumbering progress until it finally clicks at the end."

Bruce Westbrook

Splat
C

Martin Lawrence Live - Runteldat (2002)

"Stand-up comedy is hit-and-miss, and for long stretches, this audience member didn't find Lawrence humorous in the least."

Eric Harrison

Splat

Mary Reilly (1996)

"Director Frears seems more interested in the atmosphere than the narrative."

Jeff Millar

Tomato
A

Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003)

Tomato
3.5/4

The Matador (2005)

"In The Matador, Pierce Brosnan plays another man with license to kill, yet he gives a performance wildly unlike his suave superspy. In fact, it may be his best role yet."

Bruce Westbrook

Tomato
3/4

Match Point (2005)

"In every scene, Allen's direction is unflinchingly clear-eyed, and it's a pleasure being walked through London at the same unhurried pace that he's taken through Manhattan all these years."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato
B+

Matchstick Men (2003)

"An engaging spin on the reliable crime subgenre of lovable thieves."

Bruce Westbrook

-

Matilda (1996)

Tomato
B+

The Matrix Reloaded (2003)

"Perhaps because this story is slacker, it's more obvious the way the Wachowskis strain to keep us wowed -- not only in special effects and action scenes but also with dialogue and fashion, too."

Eric Harrison
