Tomato

O (2001)

"This version of Othello speaks eloquently and directly to contemporary audiences, rendering Shakespeare relevant and fresh."

Eric Harrison

Tomato

O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000)

"This is the funniest Coen brothers movie since 1996's Fargo."

Eric Harrison

-

The Object Of My Affection (1998)

Splat
2/4

Observe and Report (2009)

"A few of the less repeatable lines hit their marks, but the whole affair has the pasty-faced desperation of shoppers trapped in fluorescent light."

Amy Biancolli

-

Ocean Men: Extreme Dive (2001)

Tomato

Ocean's Eleven (2001)

"The new Ocean's Eleven is altogether different -- it isn't content to let star power, shtick and easy camaraderie carry the day; it works for your money."

Eric Harrison

Splat
2/4

Ocean's Twelve (2004)

"Ocean's Twelve feels like a lark, a dashed-off confiture that isn't so much a movie as an excuse for a bunch of old friends to hang out in Europe with somebody else paying the bill."

Eric Harrison

4/4

Off the Map (2005)

"[A] lovely film, which hardly ever makes a move that feels wrong."

Eric Harrison

-

Office Space (1999)

Splat
1.5/5

Offside (2006)

"Offside is a slow slog through bloated scenes with little happening. Framed and shot like a crude documentary, it proceeds in long, clunky takes, as if an editor couldn't be bothered."

Bruce Westbrook

Splat
1.5/4

The Oh in Ohio (2006)

"I felt some of its heroine's pain. She's spent her life waiting for an orgasm. I spent the movie waiting for a plot."

Bruce Westbrook

Splat
C-

Old School (2003)

"Most mirth is as feeble and pointless as the plot, from the thin shock value of inappropriate cursing to a routine array of hedonistic hijinks."

Bruce Westbrook

Tomato
3/4

Oliver Twist (2005)

"Nitpickers may squawk over missing elements, but the film doggedly hits on the book's big themes: the power of innocence, the cruelty of class."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato

The Omega Code (1999)

"While The Omega Code is occasionally lacking in the techno-wizardry so common in similar films it makes up for it with a good plot."

Splat
1/4

The Omen (2006)

"A slavishly literal remake of the satanic-horror standby that elicits laughter, sleep and occasional eye-popped shock but drums up scant real terror."

Amy Biancolli

Splat
2.5/4

On A Clear Day (2006)

"A lesser film, kindhearted, a wee bit weepy and a wee bit trite."

Amy Biancolli

-

On Guard (1997)

Splat

On the Line (2001)

"On a whole, the movie stays as blandly inoffensive (albeit sometimes annoying) as possible."

Louis B. Parks

Tomato
3.5/4

On the Outs (2005)

"Harrowing and heartbreaking, On the Outs is persuasively performed by fine actors, yet has the real feel of a documentary."

Bruce Westbrook

-

On the Run (2002)

Splat

Once in the Life (2000)

"Needlessly convoluted storytelling, talkiness and misplaced narrative emphasis."

Eric Harrison

Tomato
B

Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003)

"Depp, who looks and dresses eerily like Michael Jackson near the end, has an appealing breeziness."

Eric Harrison

Tomato

The One (2001)

"A martial-arts flick that transcends its genre with surprisingly strong sci-fi concepts."

C

One Hour Photo (2002)

"Romanek keeps adding flourishes -- artsy fantasy sequences -- that simply feel wrong. They cheapen the overall effect."

Eric Harrison

Splat

One Night at McCool's (2001)

"[The filmmakers are] more concerned with marketing strategies and with seeming hip than in making a comedy with integrity."

A+

Open Range (2003)

"A great and beautiful Western in the classic vein."

Eric Harrison

Tomato
B+

Open Water (2004)

"A low-budget indie film whose tension and realism are augmented by unknown actors who fully inhabit their roles."

Bruce Westbrook

Tomato

Open Your Eyes (1997)

"If you're the type who doesn't mind jigsaw puzzles unassembling themselves as you assemble them, if you enjoy enigmas and don't need explanations, the film just might work for you."

Jeff Millar

Tomato
B-

The Operator (2001)

"The movie goes way over the top near the end, but unlike Hollywood films, which would've added violence and a car chase, The Operator's excesses all are in keeping with its theme."

The Original Kings of Comedy (2000)

"Some of the humor on display in the movie is very funny, but much of it is offensive and demeaning."

Splat

Original Sin (2001)

"It is never moving or shocking. It needs to be both."

Eric Harrison

Tomato
B+

Osama (2003)

"A harrowing look at a disturbingly recent time that seems more rooted in a barbaric, distant past."

Bruce Westbrook
