Tomato 4/5 |
D.E.B.S. (2005) |
"Unexpectedly fresh, thanks mostly to the sweetly exuberant love story at its center." |
Carina Chocano |
Splat 2/5 |
The Da Vinci Code (2006) |
"... competent if only occasionally thrilling." |
Kenneth Turan |
Splat 1/5 |
Daddy Day Care (2003) |
"I laughed a couple of times, but mostly I was bored out of my mind and not a little depressed." |
Manohla Dargis |
Tomato 3/5 |
Daddy's Little Girls (2007) |
"It is exciting to think that someone in Perry's position is indeed challenging himself, as he could presumably coast along on tried-and-true formulas for quite some time." |

Splat 2/5 |
Dahmer (2002) |
"Suffers from a lack of clarity and audacity that a subject as monstrous and pathetic as Dahmer demands." |
Kevin Thomas |
Splat 2/5 |
Dalton Trumbo's Johnny Got His Gun (2008) |
"Trumbo's aim was a kind of proletarian poetry, but McKenzie's broad emoting has the deadly earnestness of a school play." |
Sam Adams |
Splat 2/5 |
Daltry Calhoun (2005) |
"Bronson attempts to wring some unearned emotional redemption from her dimwitted characters, but the faux-Southern sincerity and June's incessant voice-over prove too annoying." |
Kevin Crust |
Tomato 3/5 |
Dame tu Cuerpo (2005) |
"The body-exchange gimmick has been pretty much played out in Hollywood but gets a fresh charge from its south-of-the-border setting." |
Kevin Thomas |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Damned United (2009) |
"Though his notoriously big mouth often got him into trouble, Clough is a great character for Sheen to play because his personal charm invariably -- but not always -- got him out of the difficulty." |
Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 4/4 |
Dan in Real Life (2007) |
"If what you want is a star-driven sophisticated romantic comedy that is successfully aimed at actual adults, the wait can seem like forever. Until now." |
Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 3/5 |
Dance Flick (2009) |
"This send-up, created in large part by new-generation family members Damon Jr., Craig and Damien Dante Wayans, possesses a more nimble comic footing." |
Glenn Whipp |
Splat |
Dance With Me (1998) |
"Throughout the film, Haines treats...banal moments as epiphanies, telegraphing every feeling and thought with annoying coyness." |

Splat 1/5 |
Dancer in the Dark (1999) |
"So exasperating in its contradictions, so frustrating in its fakery, so deeply irritating in its pretensions, it's frankly hard to know where to begin to dissect it." |
Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Dancer Upstairs (2003) |
"Here, the urgent question of how an individual maintains his humanity when his paychecks are cut by a government every bit as corrupt as its terrorist outlaws isn't the stuff of abstract speculation but a matter of life, death and honest screen thrills." |

Dancing at the Blue Iguana (2001) |
"Even if Dancing at the Blue Iguana can't rise to the level of the performances of Hannah, Oh and others, it is nonetheless engaging, not without humor and an aura of authenticity." |

Tomato 4/5 |
The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys (2002) |
"There's a streak of prankishness in the boys that goes pretty far, yet so rich and engaging is this film and its people that we never lose sympathy for them." |
Kevin Thomas |
Splat |
Dangerous Minds (1995) |
"The tale screenwriter Ronald Bass came up with, and the way director John N. Smith tells it, is stereotypical, predictable and simplified to the point of meaninglessness." |
Kenneth Turan |

Danielson: A Family Movie (2006) |
"Aronson's film is a fond portrait, loaded with bizarre, haunting music and Smith's off-kilter inspirations." |
Michael Ordoņa |
Tomato 3/5 |
Danny Deckchair (2004) |
"As instantly gratifying and devoid of surprises as a Club Med vacation." |
Carina Chocano |

Tomato 3/5 |
Dare (2009) |
"The film lacks the comedic charm of American Pie, but with its dark, hyper-sexualization of teens, it offers an engrossing if not soap opera-esque tale of self-discovery." |
Gerrick Kennedy |
Tomato 3/5 |
Dare Not Walk Alone (2008) |
"Brock's story and the vivid remembrances of protesters...Clumsier is Dean's attempt to revive calls for social justice regarding today's poverty-stricken West St. Augustine." |
Robert Abele |
Splat 2/5 |
Daredevil (2003) |
"While Daredevils' title role proves to be a snug fit for Ben Affleck, the movie itself sags in all the wrong places." |
Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Darfur Now (2007) |
"The best material is the result of the rare opportunity to shoot inside those refugee camps: hearing firsthand testimony from victims about the catastrophic horrors inflicted on their villages is forceful and persuasive." |
Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Darjeeling Limited (2007) |
"The film about three brothers in the wake of their dad's death is a pleasurable journey to nowhere, but it's worth the ride." |
Carina Chocano |
Splat 2/5 |
Dark Blue (2003) |
"Dark Blue is as interesting and successful as it can be within its limits, but those limits make this a more generic film than its makers intended." |
Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Dark Blue World (2001) |
"Its uncompromising bleakness and its Eastern European sense of life's cruel absurdities give it a sophistication quite a few cuts above mainstream fare." |
Kevin Thomas |

Cristy Lytal |
Tomato 5/5 |
The Dark Knight (2008) |
"To see it is to understand that Nolan and his co-writer brother Jonathan saw a chance to go deeper into familiar characters and mythology, a chance to meditate on darker-than-usual themes that have implications for the way we live now." |
Kenneth Turan |

The Dark Knight (2008) |
"The Dark Knight: Evolution of a Batsuit" |
Tom Russo |
Splat 2/5 |
Dark Matter (2008) |

Darkness Falls (2003) |
"It's a downer to see so much effort expended on such junk." |
Kevin Thomas |
Tomato 4/5 |
Darkon (2007) |
"By approaching the subject without a sense of ironic distance, Neel and Meyer get at something elemental, a variation of the American Dream at work, in which everyone can live out their life as they see it, even if that's as a medieval elf." |
|
Tomato 5/5 |
Darwin's Nightmare (2006) |
"It immerses you in its reality one toe at a time, until suddenly you are in over your head, gasping for air as the horror of the situation reveals itself in all its savage devastation." |
Kenneth Turan |
Splat 1/5 |
Date Movie (2006) |
"Dudes, does a spoof count as a spoof if it's dumber and more obvious than the thing it's spoofing?" |
Carina Chocano |
Splat 1.5/5 |
Dating Games People Play (2006) |
"Did you know that sometimes men and women see things differently when it comes to relationships? Such is the essential premise to Dating Games People Play, an entirely unnecessary romantic comedy." |
Mark Olsen |
Tomato 4/5 |
Dave Chappelle's Block Party (2006) |
"Must fun of all, however, is basking in Chappelle's ability to be effortlessly funny." |
