Tomato 3.5/5 |
Baadasssss! (2004) |
"Through the filmmaking, and inside the film itself, the son visits the sins of the father and discovers a triumph, a legacy, a purpose." |

Tomato 4.5/5 |
Babel (2006) |
"Dark, sophisticated and challenging, this film is a stunning conclusion to Inarritu's trilogy that began with Amores Perros and 21 Grams." |
Bruce Kirkland |
Splat 2/5 |
Baby Blues (2008) |
"Plays just like an over-long TV movie of the week, and has not nearly enough material to warrant feature-film status." |
Liz Braun |
Tomato |
Baby Boy (2001) |
"A meandering, flawed, but electrifying film." |
Rob Caley |
Splat 2/5 |
Baby Formula (2009) |
"The Baby Formula is proof that lesbian romantic comedies are every bit as dopey as the straight variety." |
Liz Braun |
Splat 2/5 |
Baby Mama (2008) |
"What's the difference between a vasectomy and Baby Mama? Baby Mama only lasts 93 minutes." |
Kevin Williamson |
Splat 2/5 |
Babylon A.D. (2008) |
"No matter who's responsible, the movie is a dud -- one so sped-up and illogical, it's almost painful to sit through." |
David Schmeichel |
Splat 2/5 |
The Babysitters (2008) |
"You can see the potential in this off-kilter coming-of-age story, and it's a pity it never quite adds up." |
Liz Braun |
Splat |
The Bachelor (1999) |
"The Bachelor is just as dismal a failure -- the anti-date movie of the year." |

Bad Boys (1995) |
"Call me crazy, I'm recommending Bad Boys, especially for fans of heavy metal monster movies." |
Bruce Kirkland |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Bad Boys II (2003) |
"A highly questionable 2 1/2 hours." |
Jane Stevenson |
Splat 2/5 |
Bad Boys II (2003) |
"An exercise in excess which manages to make all the mayhem in the latest Charlie's Angels and T3 look positively restrained by comparison." |

Splat 2/5 |
Bad Company (2002) |
"A witless, bloodless spy adventure that seems to have been written by a computer program from bits and pieces of various Lethal Weapon, Rush Hour and Beverly Hills Cop sequels." |
Jim Slotek |
Splat 2/5 |
Bad Company (2002) |
"It may be filled with bad plot devices, some bad acting and bad casting choices, but Bad Company moves at a great pace, looks good and sounds better." |
Louis B. Hobson |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Bad Education (2004) |
"Almodovar is provocative and playful, and adept at turning what seems like a minor, self-absorbed film into a profound meditation on subjects as diverse as the fragility of memory and the complexity of human sexuality." |
Bruce Kirkland |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Bad Guy (2001) |
"Bad Guy's greatest fault is that it is a listless exercise, that goes nowhere except further into the mire." |
Jim Slotek |
Tomato 4/5 |
Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans (2009) |
"Herzog's acting advice to Cage to "release the pig" (ostensibly a Bavarian saying) has resulted in perhaps the most memorable performance of Cage's career, and certainly the most over the top." |
Jim Slotek |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Bad News Bears (2005) |
"The Bad News Bears is not risque at all, but it's often cute and has a handful of laughs, and that's about it. Not every film can be a winner, you know, but it still takes 12 to make a team and there's no 'i' in movie." |
Liz Braun |
Tomato 4/5 |
Bad Santa (2003) |
"Crude, profane, utterly offensive -- and one of the most darkly funny movies I've seen in years." |
Jim Slotek |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Bad Santa (2003) |
"It's one hilarious but nasty look at the commercialism of Christmas." |
Louis B. Hobson |
Splat 2/5 |
Baghead (2008) |
"Trouble is, it's never really funny or really scary, and a lot of it is hugely predictable." |
Liz Braun |
Tomato 3/5 |
Bailey's Billions (2005) |
"Bailey's Billions has love, adventure, money, conflict and man's best friend." |
Liz Braun |
Splat |
Baise Moi (2001) |
"When confronted with the vile mess on screen, the intellectual analysis gives way to revulsion and then fatigue." |
Bruce Kirkland |
Tomato |
Bait (2000) |
"It's action-packed, it's funny and it features lots of solid thespian emoting." |
Bob Thompson |
Splat 2.5/5 |
The Ballad of Jack and Rose (2005) |
"Doesn't seem to know what it wants to be, and that's right down to its artificial-feeling ending." |
Liz Braun |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Ballast (2008) |
"Ballast is a movie that insinuates itself, and forces you to think about it later, and that alone makes it stand out." |
Jim Slotek |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Ballets Russes (2005) |
"The documentary film Ballets Russes tells that story and, while of interest primarily to dance fans, makes the tale interesting for all who follow the arts." |
Bruce Kirkland |
Splat 1.5/5 |
Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever (2002) |
"At best, Ballistic is a movie that wants to be a video game. At worst, it's a colossal waste of time." |
Louis B. Hobson |
Tomato 3/5 |
Balls of Fury (2007) |
"Everyone in the movie appears to be having a very good time, an attractive quality in a comedy. You may laugh out loud in spite of yourself." |
Liz Braun |
Tomato 4/5 |
Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress (2005) |
"A transporting story about storytelling." |
Liz Braun |
Tomato |
Bamboozled (2000) |
"Bamboozled is a satire with a bite even more vicious than its bark." |
Bruce Kirkland |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Band's Visit (2007) |
"Eran Kolirin's insightful little film -- about a starched band of cop-musicians whose travel plans go awry -- is more than about what happens when ostensible enemies get to know each other." |
Jim Slotek |
Tomato 3/5 |
Bandit Queen (1994) |
"It is representative of a thousand other real-life stories -- albeit not as spectacular as the Devi saga -- which have emerged in the news from India in the past decade." |
Bruce Kirkland |
Tomato |
Bandits (2001) |
"In lesser hands, Bandits might be just a throwaway romp, easily forgotten. With this cast and crew, it's a blast." |
Bruce Kirkland |
Tomato |
Bandits (2001) |
"Fun and funny as the film's characters may be, Bandits isn't as consistently giddy as the chemistry promises." |
Louis B. Hobson |
Tomato 3/5 |
Bandslam (2009) |
"High school... Vanessa Hudgens... kids making music. We know what you're thinking, but you're wrong." |

The Banger Sisters (2002) |
"It's so mediocre, despite the dynamic duo on the marquee, that we just can't get no satisfaction." |
Bruce Kirkland |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Banger Sisters (2002) |
"The Banger Sisters may be instantly forgettable, but while it unwinds, it is pure and joyous nonsense." |
Louis B. Hobson |
Splat 2/5 |
Bangkok Dangerous (2008) |
"While Cage is making an effort to summon the troubled warrior within, it's hard to accept him for the cold-blooded killer he's trying to be." |
Lindsey Ward |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Bank Job (2008) |
"The Bank Job is both an adrenalin-fuelled heist tale, a hit of history and a background glance at a world that no longer exists." |

Baran (2002) |
"The film tells a touching, romantic story, but the underpinnings of Baran -- Rain -- are mostly political and mostly heart-breaking." |

The Barbarian Invasions (2003) |
"There is a lot to ponder, a lot to feel, in this elegiac film." |
Bruce Kirkland |
Tomato 3/5 |
Barbershop (2002) |
"It excels because, unlike so many other Hollywood movies of its ilk, it offers hope." |
Derek Tse |
Tomato 4/5 |
Barbershop 2: Back in Business (2004) |
"What Barbershop 2: Back In Business lacks in stealth and surprise, it makes up for in style and confidence." |
