Eagle Eye (2008)

"Eagle Eye wants to be Marathon Man, or Enemy of the State, only with a post-9/11 overlay and a plot device lifted straight from 2001: A Space Odyssey."

Earth (1999)

Eastern Promises (2007)

"Mortensen delivers yet another startling performance, stunning in its intensity and cunning in its ambiguity."

Eden (2008)

"Although its low-key realism is admirable, Eden doesn't really work."

Eight Below (2006)

"Eight Below is dazzling to look at, and nicely intercuts the human relationships with the pooches' awesome struggles to stay alive in the white, wintry wild."

Elegy (2008)

"The delicious conflict of a thinker poleaxed by his feelings inflames Isabel Coixet's smoldering Elegy, based on Roth's novella The Dying Animal."

Elephant (2003)

"Elephant is the film equivalent of Maya Lin's Vietnam monument, that collective gravestone to the fallen, in the way it employs abstract means to quantify the loss of life and elicit a profound sense of grief."

Elf (2003)

"An enjoyably goofy yuletide tale of a towering innocent with a serious sugar addiction."

Elizabethtown (2005)

"Not even the soundtrack can save this Crowe effort."

Elling (2002)

"A plucky parable about mastering one's fears, and making connections."

The Emperor's New Clothes (2002)

"The film is powered by the quietly electrifying performance of Ian Holm."

Empire (2002)

"Ultimately just one more urban gangland genre flick."

Enchanted (2007)

"This charmer of a film runs a little long and is heavy on the CGI dragon. The real special effect is Adams, who sings the Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz songs with brio, complementing her vivacious performance."

End of the Century: The Story of the Ramones (2004)

"Offers a fascinating chronicle of the birth, glory days and waning years of a motorcycle-jacketed, bowl-haircutted quartet of middle-class geeks who unwittingly spawned the punk movement."

End of the Spear (2006)

"This is a movie -- albeit one with a great, gripping story -- shot through with meaningful glances, middling performances and melodramatic music cues. Pity."

Enduring Love (2004)

"Filmmaker Roger Michell doesn't so much adapt Ian McEwan's fine novel Enduring Love, a surgically precise anatomy of romance and obsession, as eviscerate it and wave its entrails before the audience."

Enlighten Up! (2009)

"When Nick encounters B.K.S. Iyengar, the legendary guruji and one of the foremost figures of yoga, Churchill's mostly lightweight film radiates some spiritual light."

Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room (2005)

"It's not an indictment, so much. It's more like a mirror."

Eragon (2006)

"First-time director Stefen Fangmeier delivers, giving young adults a teen hero astride a flying dragon (voice of Rachel Weisz) and a comely girl warrior, Arya (Sienna Guillory), who, like Luke and Leia, join forces and wits to bring down the evil empire."

Eureka (2001)

"Begins to develop a peculiar power that draws you gradually into the shattered psyches of Makoto, the bus driver, and the two children."

Evan Almighty (2007)

"Ultimately, Evan Almighty is too sappy, too sanctimonious."

Evening (2007)

"Evening might be the most shocking waste of natural resources since the despoiling of the Amazon rain forest."

Every Little Step (2009)

"The exuberant documentary Every Little Step revisits the genesis of the landmark show about the gestation and delivery of a Broadway musical."

Everybody's Famous (2001)

"Knows the price of success and the value of family."

Everyday People (2004)

"The ensemble cast, asked to improvise its roles, interacts with conviction and chemistry."
