Tomato
3.5/5

Habit (1997)

"Larry Fessenden's impressive Habit takes a great deal of pleasure in ambiguously playing around with the vampire tradition."

Kenneth Turan

Hackers (1995)

David Kronke

Tomato
4/5

Haiku Tunnel (2001)

"A sly and captivating comedy of imaginative leaps and gently orchestrated pandemonium."

Kenneth Turan

Tomato
3.5/5

Hair High (2006)

"Hair High is not for everyone, but it's not like anything else out right now."

Michael Ordoņa

Tomato
3/5

Hair Show (2004)

"The plot is slender but serviceable, and under Leslie Small's attentive direction, not only do Mo'Nique and Smith excel, but those playing salon staffers -- Taraji Henson, Keiko Agena, Cee Cee Michaela et al -- also make lively impressions."

Kevin Crust

Tomato
4/5

Hairspray (2007)

"What it offers isn't really a nostalgic look at a 'more innocent time' so much as a saucy wink at a casually vicious time that is constantly being sold to us as innocent."

Carina Chocano

-

Half Baked (1998)

Bob Heisler

-

Half Moon: A Musician's Last Journey (2007)

"[Director Bahman Ghobadi] sparks a deeply humanist alchemy in unsentimental tales peopled by nonprofessional actors."

Sheri Linden

Tomato
5/5

Half Nelson (2006)

"Made with assurance, restraint and psychological acuity by director Ryan Fleck and anchored by Ryan Gosling's commanding performance, this paradigmatic American independent feature approaches recurring themes in a compelling new way."

Kenneth Turan

Splat
1/5

Half Past Dead (2002)

"Absent one original moment and bathed in de rigueur steel blue punctuated by sporadic bursts of flaming orange, the movie is notable only for its creative approach to Seagal's bulky gracelessness."

Manohla Dargis

Splat
1/5

Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers (1996)

"'Enough of this Michael Meyers B.S.!,' says a disgruntled Haddonfielder, as news spreads of the returning native son. Dream on."

Jack Mathews

-

Halloween II (2009)

"Weinsteins Plan 3-D Halloween for 2010"

Tomato
4/5

Halloween: H2O (1998)

"Halloween: H20 is as stylish and scary as it is ultra-violent. It brings back a stunning Jamie Lee Curtis in the role that made her a star and it's a work of superior craftsmanship in all aspects."

Kevin Thomas

Splat
2/5

Halloween: Resurrection (2002)

"It's not the worst film in the series -- Halloween III will never be unseated -- but there's not nearly enough scares, or humor, to make Halloween: Resurrection worthwhile."

Kevin Crust

Tomato
4/5

Hamlet (1996)

"With his handsome and compelling Hamlet, Kenneth Branagh brings the Bard's greatest tragedy passionately alive on the screen."

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
4/5

Hamlet (2000)

"Almereyda has pulled off a formidable coup: He's made Shakespeare come alive for contemporary audiences of all ages, especially young people."

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
3.5/5

Hamlet 2 (2008)

"When the father of one of the stars says, 'I'm simultaneously horrified and fascinated,' you'll know just what he means."

Kenneth Turan

-

Hamlet 2 (2008)

"Hamlet 2 Plays It for Laughs"

Mark Olsen

-

Hamsun (1996)

Kevin Thomas

Hancock (2008)

"Do Troubled Headlines Mean Box-Office Superheroes?"

Splat
2/5

Hancock (2008)

"It's a strange feeling to see the summer's most promising premise self-destruct into something bizarre and unsatisfying, but that is the Hancock experience."

Kenneth Turan

Tomato
3/5

Hands On a Hard Body (1998)

"On the one hand, the Hands on a Hard Body contest seems a horrible exploitation of needy people as a publicity stunt to promote a car dealership; on the other, the film reveals an endearing piece of Americana."

Kevin Thomas

-

Hanging Garden (1997)

Kevin Thomas

Splat
2/5

Hanging Up (2000)

"Hanging Up has all the ingredients of a success -- a stellar cast, a promising premise, a strong production team -- but nothing comes together in satisfying fashion."

Kevin Thomas

-

The Hangover (2009)

"No Love for A-List Actors This Summer"

Tomato
4/5

The Hangover (2009)

"There is a sort of perverse brilliance or brilliant perverseness to be found in this story of a bachelor party gone terribly wrong."

Betsy Sharkey

Tomato
4/5

Hania (2008)

"A beautiful-looking film with accomplished performances all around, Hania is head and shoulders above most Christmas movies, though is too intense for younger children."

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
3.5/5

Hannah Free (2009)

"Hannah Free affords a terrific role for Sharon Gless."

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
3/5

Hannah Montana The Movie (2009)

"In the end, Hannah Montana: The Movie is big, beautiful, a little boring and utterly safe."

Mary McNamara

Tomato
3/5

Hannah Takes the Stairs (2007)

"Perfectly encapsulates the slow-motion, frustrated feeling of early adulthood, when longing and inchoate desire easily outnumber actual transformative events and achievements."

Carina Chocano

Splat
2/5

Hannari: Geisha Modern (2008)

"Theoretically, the endangerment of the geisha tradition offers a compelling premise for a nonfiction film; unfortunately, that thesis is buried so deeply in this poorly structured documentary that it's nearly lost altogether."

Lael Loewenstein

Splat
2.5/5

Hannibal (2001)

"A disappointment."

Kenneth Turan

Splat
1.5/5

Hannibal Rising (2007)

"Lacking the wit to qualify as a sick joke, the ongoing saga of Hannibal Lecter has become the Grand Guignol equivalent of a shaggy-dog story."

Sam Adams

-

The Happening (2008)

"Eleven Notable R-Rated Debuts"

Tomato
4/5

Happenstance (2001)

"It brims with the charm, wisdom and light touch that have endeared French films to international audiences for more than a century."

Kevin Thomas

-

Happily Ever After (1993)

Click here to see the review.

Carina Chocano

Tomato
3/5

Happily Ever After (2005)

"Like the story, the camerawork in Happily Ever After is loose, fluid and intent on discovery; it lets characters' moments together and alone unfurl easily and casually in a way that Hollywood seems to want to avoid like failure."

Carina Chocano

Splat
2.5/5

Happily N'Ever After (2007)

"Putting a spin on classic fairy tales is nothing new, and unfortunately that's just what the Shrek-lite animated feature Happily N'Ever After brings to the big screen."

Alex Chun

Splat
2/5

Happiness (1998)

Kenneth Turan

Splat
2/5

Happiness of the Katakuris (2002)

"None of this is nearly as hilarious as surely it was meant to be."

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
4/5

Happy Endings (2005)

"As bawdy, self-conscious, jaded and still sweetly optimistic as its double-entendre of a title suggests."

Carina Chocano

Tomato
4/5

Happy Feet (2006)

"After everything from March of the Penguins to Madagascar, you may think you've seen enough penguins, but you've never seen them like this."

Kenneth Turan

Splat
2/5

Happy Gilmore (1996)

"You don't feel that Sandler and director Dennis Dugan are trying for the kind of subversiveness that might just make Happy's brutal anarchy more effective."

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
3.5/5

Happy Here and Now (2002)

"This is a droll, laid-back film noir steeped in Crescent City atmosphere and music that culminates in the colliding worlds of genuine and virtual reality."

Kevin Thomas

Splat
1/5

Happy Hour (2004)

"In a world with so many problems, it's hard to drum up any sympathy for these characters' profligate self-destruction."

Carina Chocano

Tomato
4/5

Happy Times (2002)

"Simultaneously poignant, engagingly funny and bittersweet, it mixes its elements in a way that is completely its own."

Kenneth Turan

Tomato

Happy Together (1997)

"A take-no-prisoners movie from one of Hong Kong's most idiosyncratic, shoot-from-the-hip filmmakers that's the very antithesis of sentimental gay love stories."

Kevin Thomas
