Robert Roten |
Tomato B |
Taken (2009) |

Robert Roten |
Tomato C+ |
Taking Lives (2004) |
"A solid police thriller with a few scares and some plot twists." |
Robert Roten |
Tomato C+ |
The Tale of Despereaux (2008) |
"The film looks great and the story is interesting enough for adults. It may be a little too complex and intense for young children." |
Robert Roten |
Tomato 8/10 |
The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) |
"Anthony Minghella, as in his last movie The English Patient, keeps the story going a good 15 or 20 minutes past its natural conclusion, but at least this time the story is more interesting." |
Robert Roten |
Tomato B |

Robert Roten |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Taste of Others (2001) |
"It is an interesting character study as far as it goes, but it seems a bit slight and low-key. It isn't simplistic, but it isn't all that rich and complex, either." |
Robert Roten |
Tomato A |
Taxi to the Dark Side (2008) |
"Nails the fact that murder, injuries, sexual abuse, humiliation and degradation of prisoners was covered up and condoned at the highest levels of the Bush Administration." |
Robert Roten |
Tomato B |
Team America: World Police (2004) |

Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) |
"Despite all the special effects and stunts, it is the character development and the nice way the three principal actors work together that makes the film effective." |

Terminator Salvation (2009) |

"Refreshingly irreverent and briskly comic." |

That Evening Sun (2009) |
"Still worth watching because of the fine performances by the actors. Just beware, it is very grim and the two main characters really are very obnoxious." |
