Calendar Girls (2003) |
"All the ladies look and feel real. That this movie was made at all, even if its message gets muddled along the way, is deserving of a viewing." |

Can't Hardly Wait (1998) |
"Essentially a John Hughes piece on speed." |

Can't Stop the Music (1980) |
"Why was this movie made? I know The Village People had a good gimmick ( ... ), but was a movie loosely based on their creation necessary? Especially a movie as bad as this?" |

Tomato 4/5 |
Candyman (1992) |
"Tony Todd is justly famous for creating this role. His body movement evokes the character's dominance just as much as his lulling voice." |

Cappadonna's Iron Fist Pillage (2002) |
"This film is an absolute trip from the word jump. This [is] an excellent choice for late night viewing with a bunch of friends and some alcohol." |

Carnival of Souls (1962) |
"The lack of features doesn't help to make Carnival of Souls more attractive. If you must check it out, find the Criterion release and avoid this one." |

Casablanca (1942) |
"You can't fault people for not having a slew of Criterion-esque features on this thing, but Warner Brothers gets credit for making the most of it." |

Cast Away (2000) |

Cat People (1982) |
"But when the visual aspects overcome the storytelling, the movie suffers. That's the main problem with the film. Looks great, but there's nothing beneath the surface." |

Cat's Eye (1985) |
"Decent King adaptations shrouded with a weak framing story." |

Cats: The Musical (1998) |
"Sure it might be barely plotless fluff, but it's well executed barely plotless fluff, and doesn't try to pretend to be anything else." |

Tomato 9/10 |
Central Station (1998) |
"When it is an odd couple road movie, it works well. When it tries to transcend that genre and become something else, it can't seem to get its feet off the ground." |

The Changeling (1979) |

Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre (1997) |
"if you like this sort of thing, then this flick and disc are for you. If you're like me, and you want your drama a little less hanging-from-the-rafters, then I would pass." |

Children of a Lesser God (1986) |

Tomato 4.5/5 |
Children Underground (2001) |
"Because that what the film Children Underground is trying to do. It's not just trying to depress you, it wants you to look down at the problem and say, "Let me help."" |

Chocolat (2000) |

Christianity: The First Two Thousand Years (2001) |
"Those with a need for a good overview of the subject should purchase; the rest of us should give it a watch without making that particular leap." |

A Christmas Story (1984) |
"It cannot be denied--as many points as they get for truly trying to make this a special edition--the film itself eclipses any bonus material. It's just priceless." |

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe (2005) |

Chronicles of Riddick (2004) |

The Chubbchubbs (2002) |
"This is a cute CGI short, and it's easy to see why it beat out 'Mike's New Car' for the Oscar." |

Cold Comfort Farm (1996) |
"If you're a fan of that subgenre of fiction...then this is worth at least a rental, if not a definite purchase. It's too delightfully sick and too deliciously a sendup to be denied." |
