Tomato
3/4

K-19: The Widowmaker (2002)

"Pleasantly old-fashioned for the most part, K-19 frankly spends more time than is necessary on these preliminaries. It becomes another, better movie when the nuclear crisis begins."

Kenneth Turan

Tomato
3.5/5

K-Pax (2001)

"If K-PAX's conclusion is a bit too glib, too pat for what it's trying to do, it's an honorable attempt to create a thoughtful entertainment, and it's got the kind of acting worth visiting from another planet to experience."

Kenneth Turan

Splat
1.5/5

Kaante (2002)

"As a perfect heist caper gone awry it is a stale, lurid, grade-Z rehash."

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
3/5

Kabluey (2008)

"A dark piece of whimsy that enchants and befuddles in equal measure."

Robert Abele

-

Kadosh (1999)

Kevin Thomas

Splat
2/5

Kaena: The Prophecy (2004)

"There are moments in Kaena that are absorbing, but too much of the time it simply becomes tedious."

Kevin Thomas

-

Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love (1997)

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
4/5

Kamikaze Girls (2005)

"As exciting for its beautifully specific and honest portrayal of teenage girls and their friendships as it is for its dazzling visual and narrative style."

Carina Chocano

Tomato
4.5/5

Kandahar (2001)

"Remarkably revealing and timely."

Kevin Thomas

Tomato

Kansas City (1996)

"It could never for an instant be mistaken for anything but a Robert Altman film, and that counts for a lot."

Kevin Thomas

-

Kaspar Hauser (1994)

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
4/5

Kassim the Dream (2009)

"A nuanced survivor's story that memorably transcends its genre."

Glenn Whipp

Splat
2.5/5

Kate and Leopold (2001)

"Predictably, there will be a spark between Leopold and Kate, but 80 minutes is too long to wait for it to catch fire."

Kevin Thomas

Splat
1/5

Kazaam (1996)

"The gloomy psychology detracts from the film's magic elements."

Jack Mathews

Tomato
4.5/5

Keane (2004)

"Keane is emotionally involving right from the beginning through its final frame."

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
4/5

Keep the River on Your Right: A Modern Cannibal Tale (2001)

"Meanders, dawdles, doubles back on itself but finally gets us somewhere fascinating and worthwhile."

Kenneth Turan

Tomato
3.5/4

The Keeper: The Legend of Omar Khayyam (2005)

"An overall satisfying experience."

Kevin Crust

-

Keepers Of The Frame (1999)

Click here to see the review.

Splat
1/5

Keeping Mum (2006)

"Where Ealing comedies used to have full command of irony, Keeping Mum is weirdly clueless."

Robert Abele

Tomato

Keeping the Faith (2000)

"An astute directorial debut for actor Edward Norton."

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
3/5

Kekexeli: Mountain Patrol (2006)

"Being in this pitiless environment stiffens the spine of the film's tale."

Kenneth Turan

Tomato

Kenny (2008)

"The Australian charmer Kenny, about a hard-working, jovial employee for a portable toilet company, is a low-key study of underdog pride rather than a Larry the Cable Guy bodily function jokefest."

Robert Abele

Tomato
4/5

The Keys to the House (2004)

"It takes a story that could be turned into the most florid kind of tear-jerker and instead tells it with an exactness and a restraint that makes it powerfully effective."

Kenneth Turan

-

Keys to Tulsa (1997)

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
4/5

Khachaturian: A Musician and His Fatherland (1955)

"As enthralling as it is informative."

Kevin Thomas

Splat
1/5

Kickin' It Old Skool (2007)

"The film itself seems lost in a time warp -- even its attitude toward the '80s is out of date considering the ongoing revival in music and fashion from that era."

Mark Olsen

Splat

Kicking & Screaming (1995)

"Baumbach ... pushes his rigorous stance to the extent that you begin to wonder why you're bothering to watch the aimless lives of these four unfold."

Kevin Thomas

Splat
1.5/5

Kicking and Screaming (2005)

"The kind of movie that makes you wonder why anyone would even bother making it in the first place."

Kevin Crust

Tomato

Kicking It (2008)

"Rarely has the healing power of sports been as genuinely depicted as in director Susan Koch's perception-altering documentary Kicking It."

Gary Goldstein

Tomato
4/5

The Kid & I (2005)

"What sets The Kid & I apart from most Hollywood comedies is its restraint, on the part of Arnold, both as writer and actor, as well as Spheeris. Comedy actually grows out of character and situation."

Kevin Thomas

-

A Kid in King Arthur's Court (1995)

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
4/5

The Kid Stays in the Picture (2002)

"A witty, colorful and poignant account of the life and times of producer Robert Evans."

Kevin Thomas

Kids (1995)

Kenneth Turan

Kids (1995)

"Harmony Korine Returns with Mister Lonely"

Mark Olsen

Splat
1.5/5

Kids in America (2005)

"A comedy so inane and tedious that it buries its premise and its various worthy points under too many arch and improbable shenanigans and endless dialogue, much of it seriously under-inspired."

Kevin Crust

Tomato
4.5/5

Kikujiro (2000)

"The result is a heart-tugger made totally irresistible because of the combination of Kitano's wry, sly sense of humor and his rigorous detachment."

Kevin Thomas

Splat
2/5

Kill Bill Vol. 1 (2003)

" For the first time in Tarantino's filmmaking career, the written story -- both in word and development -- proves the least interesting part of the whole equation."

Manohla Dargis

Tomato
4/5

Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004)

"A blast of pure pop pleasure."

Manohla Dargis

Tomato
4/5

Kill Me Later (2001)

"Happily the filmmakers here are more interested in its people and their lives than in the chase that follows."

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
4/5

Killer of Sheep (1977)

"... still has the power to move us."

Kenneth Turan

-

Killer: A Journal of Murder (1995)

Click here to see the review.

Kevin Thomas

Splat

The Killing of John Lennon (2008)

"Gets inside Chapman's head but never under his skin."

Sam Adams

-

Killshot (2009)

"Weinsteins' Struggles Continue with Killshot"

Tomato
3.5/5

The King (2006)

"A dark and deeply unsettling movie with its roots in classical tragedy."

Carina Chocano

Tomato
3.5/5

King Corn (2007)

"King Corn is entertaining enough, but it's also a moral, crucially skeptical road trip down the food chain."

Splat
2.5/5

The King is Alive (2001)

"Stylish and gritty, The King Is Alive lacks the impact of revelation that might have made the journey worth taking."

Kevin Thomas

Tomato
4/5

King Kong (2005)

"A travelogue through popular movie genres, it passes from socially conscious drama to comedy, romance, horror, adventure, science-fiction fantasy and doomed love story, cleverly quoting the styles and tropes to which we've become accustomed along the way."

Carina Chocano

Tomato
3/5

King Leopold's Ghost (2006)

"Although King Leopold's Ghost dwells perhaps too long on the viciousness, it does offer clues on how it became a circle."

Michael Ordoņa

Tomato
4/5

King of California (2007)

"[A] strange, funny and sad story."

Carina Chocano

Tomato
3.5/5

The King Of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (2007)

"A sprightly new documentary that's as compulsively watchable as the vintage video game it focuses on is addictive."

Kenneth Turan
