Rating Title Year Quote Author

Tomato
4/4

A Scanner Darkly (2006)

"The first film to capture the author's transience and his art."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato
3/4

A Tout de Suite (2005)

"[Isild Le Besco] has an unusual look and the ability to appear unformed, hard, vulnerable and sexy all at once."

Eric Harrison

Splat

A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001)

"It ends up a glorious failure, an impressive mess."

Eric Harrison

B+

About Schmidt (2002)

"The film aims to be funny, uplifting and moving, sometimes all at once. The extent to which it succeeds is impressive."

Eric Harrison

Splat
2/4

Accepted (2006)

"Too much of the plot is eaten up with clichéd assaults on a stodgy mainstream college and its pretty, gel-afflicted frat boys, who care waaayyy less about the liberal arts than whacking around pledges with a wooden spanker."

Amy Biancolli

-

The Acid House (1998)

Tomato
3.5/4

Across the Universe (2007)

"...Julie Taymor's rhapsodic mash note to John, Paul, George and Ringo falls just short of breathtaking."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato
3/4

Adam (2009)

"Sure, it's complicated, but isn't that always true of romance? And doesn't it blow the hinges off the universe -- every single time?"

Amy Biancolli

Splat
D

Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights (2002)

"Sets animation back 30 years, musicals back 40 years and Judaism back at least 50."

Roger Moore

Splat
C

Adaptation (2002)

"Mired in the inertia of Charlie's writer's block, as if the real Kaufman never found his own passion for the material."

Bruce Westbrook

Adrenaline Drive (1999)

Splat
2/4

Adventureland (2009)

"The youths of Superbad were a little bit younger, a little more likable, their dirty-virgin wit more hilarious [than in Adventureland]."

Amy Biancolli

Tomato

The Adventures of Felix (2001)

"Bouajila, as Felix, has a freshness that seems natural, even though he is an experienced actor."

Louis B. Parks

1/4

Adventures of Sharkboy and Lava Girl in 3-D (2005)

"Squinting through cardboard glasses you get at the door, you see washed-out colors, blurred images and not enough pop-out to merit the trade-off."

Bruce Westbrook

-

An Affair of Love (2000)

Click here to see the review.

Splat
C

The Affair of the Necklace (2001)

"The film has a desperate, disjointed feel that suggests the filmmakers realized it wasn't working and kept trying, ineffectually, to fix it."

Eric Harrison

-

Affliction (1997)

Click here to see the review.

Tomato
3/4

After Innocence (2005)

"After Innocence is a crusading documentary driven by DNA testing that's brought freedom for men who served years in prison for crimes they didn't commit."

Bruce Westbrook

After the Life (2002)

Splat
2/4

After the Sunset (2004)

"After the Sunset is about as flat-footed a heist caper as I've ever seen: clumsy where it should be graceful, lumpy where it should be sleek."

Amy Biancolli

Splat
2/4

After The Wedding (2007)

"In my book it's high camp -- a thrill ride for emotion junkies."

Bruce Westbrook

-

Afterglow (1997)

Splat
D+

Against the Ropes (2003)

"It's hard to buy this minor melding of Rocky and Erin Brockovich as anything but a punched-up star vehicle for an actress in a slump."

Bruce Westbrook

Splat
C+

Agent Cody Banks (2003)

"A mundane, kid-empowerment fantasy distinguished only by Frankie Muniz's agreeable blend of haplessness and heroics."

The Alamo (2004)

Bruce Westbrook

Alaska (1996)

Tomato
B+

Alex and Emma (2003)

"Imitating that life, Alex & Emma is more artifice than art. But chemistry is the key to a romantic comedy, and this one has enough to unlock guarded hearts."

Bruce Westbrook

Splat
2/4

Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker (2006)

"Even fantasies need a nod or a wink to assure viewers, 'Yes, it's ludicrous -- but isn't it fun?'"

Bruce Westbrook

Splat
2/4

Alexander (2004)

"Stone's failures with this film are largely honorable, but occasionally he miscalculates and strikes so badly off-key that he seems tone deaf."

Eric Harrison

Splat
2/4

Alfie (2004)

"Alfie is a bore."

Eric Harrison

Tomato

Ali (2001)

"It's stirring to be reminded of what a glorious and galvanizing figure Ali was."

Eric Harrison

Alice et Martin (1998)

"Techine keeps a tight rein on his actors' dramatics."

Louis B. Parks

Tomato
A

Alien (1979)

"A genuine fright classic."

Bruce Westbrook

Tomato

Alien Resurrection (1997)

"The film is a marvel, a well-photographed feast of visual imagery."

Louis B. Parks

Tomato
3/4

Alien vs. Predator (2004)

"Though sometimes marred by murky lighting and quick-cut incoherence, the action is sudden and sensational."

Bruce Westbrook

Tomato
A

Alien: The Director's Cut (2003)

"A monster movie with class."

Bruce Westbrook

All About My Mother (1999)

Jeff Millar
