I Am Legend (2007) |
"I Am Legend is a grenade that goes off when least expected. It has more horror than heart, but it is never boring." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
I Am Sam (2002) |
"Another spectacular workout by the versatile and indefatigable Sean Penn saves the sudsy I Am Sam from the rinse cycle." |

I Heart Huckabees (2004) |
"It is difficult for me to describe how sweet and buoyant I found the film, despite its seemingly excessive stylization." |
Andrew Sarris |
Splat |
I Heart Huckabees (2004) |
"Sinks to new depths of incoherent pretentiousness." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
I Served the King of England (2008) |
"I Served the King of England ends up a curious combination of raunchy merriment and malignant undercurrents." |
Andrew Sarris |
Tomato |
I Vitelloni (1953) |
"It's my favorite Fellini film, possibly his most personal effort and by far his funniest." |
Andrew Sarris |
Tomato |
I'll Sleep When I'm Dead (2004) |
"Does the film work? All I know is that it stays in my mind for its ambitiously autumnal essence, but it may not be everyone's cup of tea." |
Andrew Sarris |
Tomato |
I'll Sleep When I'm Dead (2004) |
"A tight, well-made, evocative piece of filmmaking for true connoisseurs of gangster movies that is unnerving, yet completely sure of every step it takes." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
I'm Going Home (2002) |
"An old man's film in terms of its subject, star and protagonist, 76-year-old Michel Piccoli, but not in terms of its rigorous style or its austere denial of sentimentality and self-pity." |
Andrew Sarris |
Tomato |
I'm Not Scared (2004) |
"Haunting and suspenseful." |
Rex Reed |
Splat |
I'm Not There (2007) |
"I cannot believe this is the Todd Haynes who topped my ten-best list in 2002 with the magnificent, unforgettable Far From Heaven. Headed for the No. 1 spot on my ten-worst list, I’m Not There is a tumultuous disappointment." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
I've Loved You So Long (2008) |
"Mr. Claudel has made a grown-up film for our troubled time, and created a beautiful rapport between two gifted actresses." |
Andrew Sarris |
Tomato |
I've Loved You So Long (2008) |
"This is an amazing film for a directorial debut, but Mr. Claudel eschews sentimentality with what practically amounts to quiet heroism." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
I, Robot (2004) |
"For all its flaws, I, Robot is arresting to look at." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
The Ice Harvest (2005) |
"Nielsen’s Renata is icy cold in her calculations, and an object lesson in how to play a lethal charmer plausibly without losing any of her erotic appeal. She alone is worth the price of admission." |
Andrew Sarris |
Splat |
Identity (2003) |
"A lame-brained nut job in search of an identity of its own." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
If I Didn't Care (2007) |
"A tight, surprising little thriller that strongly captures the bogus appeal of life in the Hamptons." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
Igby Goes Down (2002) |
"The kind of film in which everyone's point of view is respected ... and yet everyone, including Igby, remains something of a mystery. Nobody wins, and nobody loses. This is one grown-up movie." |
Andrew Sarris |
Tomato |
Igby Goes Down (2002) |
"It's been a long time since the screen has produced a more charmingly muddled or more consistently interesting kid than 17-year-old Jason (Igby) Slocumb." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
The Illusionist (2006) |
"A richly textured and very entertaining movie that actually knows the value of telling a good story with skill, precision and excitement." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
Imaginary Heroes (2004) |
"An honorable and superbly articulated film." |
Rex Reed |
Splat |
Importance of Being Earnest (2002) |
"Though Mr. Parker's The Importance of Being Earnest is pleasant enough in its casting and performances, it doesn't work as it should." |
Andrew Sarris |
Tomato |
Importance of Being Earnest (2002) |
"The film is a fragile frolic, but the real theme enjoyed by countless audiences through the years -- the importance of being earnest instead of deceitful in matters of the heart -- still shines through the frosting." |

In America (2003) |
"Redeemed by the joyousness of family life that Mr. Sheridan captures from his agile and resourceful foursome." |
Andrew Sarris |
Tomato |
In America (2003) |
"Insightful, joyous and positively heart-stopping." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
In Bruges (2008) |
"Not entertainment for the faint-hearted and mindlessly censorious, and in this particularly chaotic period, it seems right in tune with the times. It goes almost without saying that the acting of the three leads is, in a word, splendid." |
Andrew Sarris |
Splat |
In Bruges (2008) |
"A gruesome, confused stumblebum of a movie." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
In Good Company (2004) |
"Not only the best American picture of 2004, but also the most grown-up movie to come from Hollywood in recent years." |
Andrew Sarris |
Tomato |
In Her Shoes (2005) |
"The movie gets much, much better as it goes along." |

Tomato |
In Her Shoes (2005) |
"This marvelous, up-with-the-lark movie stays sunny all day, with wit and intelligence to spare." |
Rex Reed |
Splat |
In July (2000) |
"The romance is always too close to knockabout farce to allow any variations in the formula." |
Andrew Sarris |
Splat |
In Praise of Love (2001) |
"In my own very humble opinion, In Praise of Love lacks even the most fragmented charms I have found in almost all of his previous works." |
Andrew Sarris |
Tomato |
In Search of a Midnight Kiss (2008) |
"In Search of a Midnight Kiss overcomes patches of overwriting to end up as a film well worth watching, and Mr. Holdridge as a writer-director to be remembered for future reference." |
Andrew Sarris |
Tomato |
In the Bedroom (2001) |
"Brilliant, lyrical, sensitive, literate and heartbreaking." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
In the Cut (2003) |
"I found the movie reasonably absorbing from moment to moment." |
Andrew Sarris |
Splat |
In the Cut (2003) |
"It is nasty, gruesome, pointlessly kinky and gratuitously awful." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
In the Land of Women (2007) |
"it is amazing to discover just how much this absorbing, intelligent picture has going for it: a strong sense of time and place, interesting characters, painfully sincere direction and an intriguing scenario that pauses and breathes in all the right places" |

In the Shadow of the Moon (2007) |
"David Sington’s In the Shadow of the Moon moved me to the extremes of nostalgia, regret and outright admiration as no other movie has moved me this year, even though -- or perhaps because -- it is a mere documentary." |
Andrew Sarris |
Tomato |
In This World (2003) |
"In This World is not a facile entertainment, but a prescribed cure for one's compassion fatigue." |
Andrew Sarris |
Tomato |
The In-Laws (2003) |
"Amazingly, the two versions have hit the casting bull's-eye twice in 24 years to provide superior entertainment." |
Andrew Sarris |
Splat |
The In-Laws (2003) |
"Humdrum direction fails to elevate an already bankrupt idea from its relentless doldrums." |
Rex Reed |
Splat |
The Incredible Hulk (2008) |
"It’s dismaying to think of all the wonderful performances Edward Norton has given in movies nobody ever saw. This one is high-octane slumming that will keep him in Bentleys for years." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
The Incredibles (2004) |
"The often wry and pointed dialogue reminded me of the glory days of radio." |
Andrew Sarris |
Splat |
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008) |
"It’s as contrived and convoluted as all the other Indiana Jones movies, but not as much fun." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
Infamous (2006) |
"Infamous is infinitely fascinating, cinematically breathtaking and largely impeccable." |
Rex Reed |
Splat |
The Informers (2009) |
"A rancid load of swill called The Informers, from a depraved 1994 book by Bret Easton Ellis, is, like The Soloist, a look at the underbelly of L.A., but the resemblance ends there." |
Rex Reed |
Tomato |
Inglourious Basterds (2009) |
"World War II was more serious, complex and horrifying than all this comic embellishment, but if I sound critical, I apologize in advance. I had a helluva time watching Inglourious Basterds." |
