Earth (2009) |
"What it does well is so remarkable that by the time the credits roll you likely won't want it to end." |
Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Earth Days (2009) |
"These people, including Whole Earth catalog editor Stewart Brand and 87-year-old former Secretary of the Interior Stewart Udall, are smart and interesting folks who are worth listening to." |

Tomato 5/5 |
East of Eden (1955) |
"Not only one of Kazan's richest films and Dean's first significant role, it is also arguably the actor's best performance." |
Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 4/5 |
East of Havana (2007) |
"A rare glimpse of everyday life in Cuba, where big questions and obstacles confront the rappers at seemingly every turn." |

Tomato 3/5 |
Eastern Promises (2007) |
"Expertly realized and gunmetal slick, Eastern Promises whirs along with perfect efficiency, but doesn't stir much in the way of visceral horror despite its penchant for treating the human body like a chicken carcass on a block." |
Carina Chocano |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Easy (2003) |
"It is a lively, idiosyncratic romantic comedy, funny and sexy but with a strong serious streak." |
Kenneth Turan |
Splat 2/5 |
Eating Out (2005) |
"A slight sex comedy that would work far better on stage than screen, where it seems far too talky and too slow." |
Kevin Thomas |
Splat |
Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds (2006) |
"Eating Out 2 is sweet-natured, but like the first edition, lame and way too talky." |
Kevin Thomas |
Splat 1/5 |
Eating Out: All You Can Eat (2009) |
"Eating Out 3: All You Can Eat is just as silly and tedious as the first two unconnected tales of young gay love -- but lots worse." |
Kevin Thomas |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Eban and Charley (2000) |
"Few people will be able to go along with Bolton's point of view regarding relationships between adults and underage youths, but there's no denying the writer-director, in his feature debut, has avoided sensationalism in telling this story." |

Eddie Murphy - Delirious (1983) |
"Looking Back at Eddie Murphy's Delirious" |

Tomato 3/5 |
Eden (2008) |
"Walsh and Kelly are the embodiment of domestic despair, fumbling to find their way back into the light." |
Sheri Linden |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Edge (1997) |
"...The Edge's fusion of Mametspeak with a true life adventure remains brawny entertainment, even it it is difficult to take as seriously as the filmmakers intend." |
Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Edge of Heaven (2008) |
"It's a beautiful, unexpectedly enrapturing story about a world in transition and both the closeness and unbridgeable divide between generations and cultures." |
Carina Chocano |
Splat 2.5/5 |
The Edge of Love (2009) |
"The Edge of Love has, as they say, all the tools, all the elements that usually make for success. It ought to be coaxing superlatives from all and sundry, but instead it leaves a bitter, unsatisfying aftertaste that lingers in the mind." |

The Education of Charlie Banks (2009) |
"Too often Durst's direction is overly earnest, heavy in long takes, atmosphere wise but scene foolish." |

Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Edukators (2005) |
"A sweet, funny and gripping romantic adventure, it's about the limitations of political activism in this day and age, and what happens when your girlfriend and your best friend fall in love." |
Carina Chocano |
Tomato |
The Eel (1997) |
"Unpredictable and captivating." |
Kevin Thomas |
Splat 1/5 |
Egoīste: Lotti Latrous (2007) |
"The way in which [director] Anspichler lingers on those who are only moments from death, especially milking a little boy's suffering in the film's finale, is truly sickening and exploitative in the lowest sense of the word." |
Mark Olsen |
Splat 2/5 |
Eight Below (2006) |
"This family adventure about a team of sled dogs abandoned in Antarctica naturally invokes the traditional shout of 'Mush!' urging the canines to go faster, but it's also an apt descriptor of both its shameless sentimentality and ineptly structured story." |

Eight Miles High (2007) |
"Eight Miles High, based on the memoirs of Uschi Obermaier, wants to be both a tangy piece of Eurosleaze and an overview of one woman's transformations from the heady days of the 1960s onward." |

El Cortez |
"El Cortez, like so many before it, searches for that nugget in the genre mine but just doesn't find it." |
Michael Ordoņa |
Tomato 4/5 |
El Tinte de la Fama |
"Bellame Palacios has visual flair and inspires affection for his emotion-charged characters -- even for Arturo, to whom desperate straits quickly inspire desperate measures yet who comes to discover just how much he loves his wife." |
Kevin Thomas |
Splat 1.5/5 |
El Topo (1970) |
"A dreary, protracted exercise in sadomasochism." |

Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Election (2005) |
"Ultimately, Election and Triad Election -- which benefit from being seen back to back -- play like a mature reevaluation of [Johnnie] To's long-standing talent for splashy, eye-popping violence." |
Robert Abele |
Splat 2/5 |
Elegy (2008) |
"Elegy seems to mourn for the wrong things, making its self-examining characters seem merely narcissistic and more than a little pathetic." |
Mark Olsen |
Splat 1/5 |
Elektra (2005) |
"Would it kill a tough girl to crack a smile or eat a Twinkie or make a pass once in a while? Does she have to be a squinty jerk with intimacy issues in order to be considered super?" |
Carina Chocano |
Tomato 5/5 |
Elephant (2003) |
"An unblinking look at our mania for murder, the film is a stunning response to an American tragedy that in its senselessness and human cost embodies the larger tragedy of this country's blood lust." |
Manohla Dargis |
Splat 2/5 |
The Elephant King (2008) |
"erhaps a bit of star power, or at least less generic actors in the leads, might have given these underdeveloped siblings more credence or appeal." |
Gary Goldstein |
Tomato 5/5 |
Elevator to the Gallows (1957) |
"A consummate entertainment rich with the romantic atmosphere of Paris in the 1950s." |
Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Eleven Minutes (2009) |
"The filmmakers cram their slice of the fashion world with no detail overlooked, and in doing so they capture that brisk, intoxicating New York atmosphere of smart, no-nonsense professionalism." |
Kevin Thomas |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Elf (2003) |
"Making this pay off without winking at the audience is a difficult task, and 'Elf' doesn't always feel all of a piece. But in 'Saturday Night Live' alumnus and star Will Ferrell, the film has a guide who steers it unerringly over the bumpy patches." |
Kenneth Turan |

Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007) |
"Elizabeth: The Golden Age gives new meaning to "costume drama" in that it is a drama primarily about costumes. But the drama is about as subtle as a sledgehammer to the temple." |
Carina Chocano |
Tomato 3/5 |
Elizabethtown (2005) |
"It's the opposite of the quick commute of the average commercial movie. It's a meandering road trip instead." |
Carina Chocano |
Splat 2/5 |
Ella Enchanted (2004) |
"Likely to cast its spell primarily on adolescent girls, while their elders might well find it more than a little tedious in its familiarity and artificiality." |
