2/4

P.S. I Love You (2007)

"What's on your holiday wishlist? Is there room for a maudlin romantic comedy that brandishes its earnestness like tacky light displays synchronized to Trans-Siberian Orchestra?"

Bobby Hankinson

Splat
1/4

The Pacifier (2005)

"Blah comedy."

Amy Biancolli

Paid in Full (2002)

Tomato
3/4

The Painted Veil (2006)

"Its strength lies in its patience -- and its slow, melting sorrow that hints at atonement."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato
4/4

Painters Painting - The New York Art Scene: 1940-70 (1972)

"If, like me, you get a jolt from the kinds of discussions that consumed New York painters and their circle during those years, Painters Painting is a must-see."

Douglas Britt

Palmetto (1998)

Tomato
3.5/4

Pan's Labyrinth (2006)

"Pan's Labyrinth plays with dark magic, a hideous enchantment spun with grief and torment. It is emotionally devastating and sensuously rich: Details are as sharp as the ching of a straight-edge razor, as strange as the squeal of a magic root."

Amy Biancolli

-

Pandora's Box (1928)

Panic (2000)

Tomato
B

Panic Room (2002)

"A better-than-adequate thriller that nevertheless is badly matched to director David Fincher's talents."

Eric Harrison

Splat
1.5/4

Paprika (2007)

"Is it sci-fi? Fantasy? Idiocy? Mostly it's a droning mess -- pretty to look at but confounding to the point where you just don't care any more."

Bruce Westbrook

-

Paradise Road (1997)

Tomato
2.5/4

Paradise, Texas (2005)

"Joe Conway's script needs more dramatic edge and motivation and a less easy resolution, but we're glad when things work out the way we knew they would."

Louis B. Parks

Tomato

Paragraph 175 (2000)

"One of the most moving interviews is with Pierre Seel."

Eric Harrison

Splat
2.5/4

Paranoid Park (2008)

"Regarding Paranoid Park as an elongated short rather than a feature helps a bit, because it's a miniature in spirit -- a small-format portrait of psychic malaise that just happens to last 84 minutes."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato
3/4

Paris, Je T'aime (2007)

"Even the least tales here flit by quickly enough to leave little bad aftertaste, and the best are savored like the last small bites of exquisite soufflés."

Bruce Westbrook

Splat
C-

Party Monster (2003)

"A mess."

Eric Harrison

Passion of Mind (1999)

Splat
F

The Passion of the Christ (2004)

"Controversy over whether it will inflame anti-Semitism guarantees huge audiences, and many people may be profoundly moved. But as a film it is quite bad."

Eric Harrison

-

Patch Adams (1998)

Splat
1.5/4

Pathfinder (2007)

"Dialogue is a low priority in this film, which has less plot than most video games."

Bruce Westbrook

Tomato

Paulie (1998)

"Unusual and surprisingly agreeable."

Louis B. Parks

-

Pauline and Paulette (2002)

Splat

Pay It Forward (2000)

"Wants so badly for us to feel something -- inspired, teary, shocked -- that it leaves us merely numb."

Eric Harrison

Splat

Pearl Harbor (2001)

"Strangely, though, after all of the movie's manipulations and the big events, we don't get a sense at the end that we've accompanied the characters through a journey."

Eric Harrison

-

The Perfect Crime (2005)

Tomato
2.5/4

The Perfect Man (2005)

"The Perfect Man isn't perfect, but it's not bad company for 100 minutes."

Amy Biancolli

Splat
C-

The Perfect Score (2004)

"Almost nothing about this MTV production, a heist movie about standardized testing, works."

Eric Harrison

-

The Perfect Storm (2000)

Splat
2/4

Perfect Stranger (2007)

"Perfect Stranger isn't great art by any stretch, or even art by any stretch, but it is perfectly functional low-to-middlebrow entertainment -- a B movie at ease inside its own gaudy skin."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato
2.5/4

Perfume: The Story of a Murderer (2006)

"Lush visuals and lusty, rhapsodic language bring Perfume as close as cinematically possible to capturing an elusive sense."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato
4/4

Persepolis (2007)

"A film as personal and eccentric as Satrapi's original book, a black-and-white, hand-drawn memoir of growing up and away from Iran."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato
A

Personal Velocity (2002)

"This beautifully realized film retains the essential qualities of short fiction: precision, compactness, a focus on epiphanic moments."

Eric Harrison

-

The Personals (2001)

Tomato

Persuasion (1995)

"Persuasion is Jane without pain, E-Z Austen. It's a delight."

Jeff Millar

Tomato

The Pest (1997)

"This film is utterly without discipline or focus in a way that -- to one's shame --one eventually finds oddly endearing."

Jeff Millar

-

Phantoms (1998)

Tomato
B+

Phone Booth (2003)

"This is a slight story enlivened by good acting, crisp pacing and some graceful comic touches."

Eric Harrison

Tomato
A

The Pianist (2002)

"There seems to be no end to movies that deal with the Holocaust, but The Pianist, in its craftmanship and its approach to the tale, is a story we haven't seen before."

Eric Harrison

Tomato
A

The Piano Teacher (2002)

"This austerely stunning film reminds us that not all art is pretty."

Eric Harrison

Pieces of April (2003)

"The film grows on you, thanks to strong characters and the shrewd observational humor of writer-director Peter Hedges."
