Tomato

Va Savoir (2001)

"Va Savoir is, as far as I can recall, however, in a class by itself in Mr. Rivette’s career with its lighthearted charm, its accessible nuance and its remarkably in-tune ensemble acting."

Andrew Sarris

Tomato

Valentin (2004)

"Funny, gentle and utterly captivating."

Rex Reed

Tomato

The Valet (2007)

"Francis Veber’s The Valet, from his own screenplay, turns out to be a surprisingly satisfying Parisian screen farce."

Andrew Sarris

Splat

Van Helsing (2004)

"This moronic abomination is not a movie. It's just a noisy, nasty and repulsive video game-slash- theme-park haunted-house ride designed to appeal to the offspring of warlocks and trolls."

Rex Reed

Splat

Vanilla Sky (2001)

"A good example of what self-destructive cinematic havoc can be wrought by handing over millions of dollars to movie stars to produce their own ego trips."

Rex Reed

Splat

Vanity Fair (2004)

"A less than absorbing adaptation of Thackeray’s sprawling but sharp-witted classic."

Andrew Sarris

Splat

Vanity Fair (2004)

"It's lavish but lulling, and at two hours and 18 minutes, it's something of a bore."

Rex Reed

Splat

Vantage Point (2008)

"The sense of déjà vu I had watching so many runaway vehicles crashing and smashing through the narrow cobblestone Spanish streets only reminded me how much more fun I’ve had watching the running of the bulls in Pamplona."

Rex Reed

Tomato

Vengo (2001)

"Flamenco rhythms are not exactly my cup of tea, but I must say that by the time Vengo's primal story unfolded in its entirety, I was fully in its thrall."

Andrew Sarris

Tomato

Venus (2006)

"If indeed Venus is his swan song, it resounds with a sweetly magnificent melody. Don’t miss it."

Andrew Sarris

Splat

Vera Drake (2004)

"Boo, hiss and all that -- but I can report that the film left me only vaguely depressed and nothing more."

Andrew Sarris

Tomato

Vera Drake (2004)

"Despite the honest, penetrating and open-faced presence of the distinguished Imelda Staunton in the title role, the film is something of an ordeal."

Rex Reed

Tomato

Veronica Guerin (2003)

"CateBlanchett has brought the ill-fated Veronica to vivid life."

Andrew Sarris

Tomato

Very Annie Mary (2001)

"Somehow Ms. Griffiths and Mr. Pryce bring off this wild Welsh whimsy."

Andrew Sarris

Tomato

A Very Long Engagement (2004)

"This is a picture well worth seeing."

Andrew Sarris

Tomato

Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008)

"The magnificent acting ensemble alone is worth the price of admission."

Andrew Sarris

Splat

View from the Top (2003)

"The characters have no wit or charm, the plot has no conflict or development, nothing happens for any reason other than script requirements."

Rex Reed

Splat

The Village (2004)

"Another mediocre lunacy from the overrated M. Night Shyamalan."

Rex Reed

Tomato

The Visitor (2008)

"Tom McCarthy’s The Visitor, from his own screenplay, is nothing short of a triumph for 60-year-old character actor Richard Jenkins, in his first leading role in a feature film."

Andrew Sarris

Tomato

The Visitor (2008)

"A marvelous film, small in expense but big in stature."

Rex Reed

Tomato

Volver (2006)

"The late François Truffaut was frequently described as a filmmaker who loved women, but not even Monsieur Truffuat could come close to Señor Almodóvar in his intelligent, perceptive and creative appreciation of women in Volver."

Andrew Sarris

Tomato

Volver (2006)

"Once again, the director confronts women on the verge of a nervous breakdown in a film full of humor and affection."

Rex Reed
