K-19: The Widowmaker (2002) |
"Never before have I seen a men-of-war film more notable for its psychology than its spectacle." |
Carrie Rickey |
Splat 2.5/4 |
K-Pax (2001) |
"However heady the experience of Bridges' gravity and Spacey's otherworldliness, the film is a head-scratcher for anyone who would try to reconcile its narrative ambiguities." |
Carrie Rickey |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Kandahar (2001) |
"Today, after the liberation of Kandahar, what was originally conceived by Makhmalbaf as a panorama of images of life during wartime may now serve as its eloquent epitaph." |
Carrie Rickey |
Splat 2/4 |
Kangaroo Jack (2003) |
"There is, it turns out, a limit to how many times you can hear 'g'day mate' or Men at Work's 1982 hit 'Down Under.'" |
Karen Heller |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kate and Leopold (2001) |
"The irresistible force that is Hugh Jackman -- or was it his swoony Leopold? -- swept me off my seat and into the movie." |
Carrie Rickey |
Tomato |
Keep the River on Your Right: A Modern Cannibal Tale (2001) |
"An extraordinarily absorbing documentary." |
Desmond Ryan |
Tomato 3/4 |
Keeping Mum (2006) |
"No heavy lifting here (except for a few stiff bodies), but Keeping Mum has a macabre merriment about it." |
Steven Rea |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Keeping Up With The Steins (2006) |
"Despite problems of tone and tempo, Steins is appealingly cast." |
Carrie Rickey |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Kekexeli: Mountain Patrol (2006) |
"Breathtakingly beautiful, breathtakingly brutal and simply breathtaking." |

Kicking & Screaming (1995) |

Tomato 2.5/4 |
Kicking and Screaming (2005) |
"Kicking & Screaming is yet another low-budget, high-concept vehicle for Will Ferrell to say and do dumb stuff, throw hissy-fits, get punched in the face, and find redemption (as both a dad and a son)." |
Steven Rea |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Kid Stays in the Picture (2002) |
"An incredibly entertaining movie." |
Carrie Rickey |
Splat 2/4 |
Kill Bill Vol. 1 (2003) |
"Structurally and narratively amputated, Volume 1 retains head and guts but loses its heart and gams to the second installment." |
Carrie Rickey |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004) |
"Kill Bill is silly stuff -- but it's transcendental silliness." |
Steven Rea |
Tomato 4/4 |
Killer of Sheep (1977) |
"Everything about Burnett's film has multiple meanings, even its title." |
Carrie Rickey |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
The King (2006) |
"Chilling and compelling." |
Steven Rea |
Splat 2/4 |
King Arthur (2004) |
"This Arthur is long and somber, broken up by crowded, clanging battle scenes that lack the visceral thrills of, say, Braveheart." |
Steven Rea |
Tomato |
The King is Alive (2001) |
"Has its flaws, but remains a fascinating and strangely involving piece." |
Desmond Ryan |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
King Kong (2005) |
"Although King Kong is spectacular, its power doesn't reside in its glittering vision of 1933 Manhattan, Jackson's virtuoso flourishes or his computer-generated effects. It's so much simpler: When the gorilla touches the girl, he touches our hearts." |
Carrie Rickey |
Tomato 3/4 |
King of California (2007) |
"The treasure of the film is the unearthing of the family bond, magically played by Douglas and Wood." |
Carrie Rickey |
Tomato 3/4 |
The King Of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (2007) |
"Thoroughly engaging, even as it explores the ugly underbelly of competitive gaming." |
Steven Rea |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
The Kingdom (2007) |
"Propelled by The Kingdom's sheer velocity, I was with it for its thrilling first two acts. It doesn't hurt that the gallows humor humanizes the characters of the ensemble." |
Carrie Rickey |
Splat |
Kingdom Come (2001) |
"A grab-bag of loosely connected scenes and lives than a film with a firm sense of direction." |
Desmond Ryan |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Kingdom of Heaven (2005) |
"The cinematography, supporting performances and battle sequences are so meticulously mounted that they still compel, even when Bloom fails to." |
Carrie Rickey |
Tomato 4/4 |
Kings and Queen (2005) |
"Kings and Queen, full of passion and humor, madness and grief, is close to a masterpiece." |
Steven Rea |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kinky Boots (2006) |
"This pleasant but predictable affair does one thing very well: showcasing the versatility of Chiwetel Ejiofor." |
Steven Rea |
Tomato |
Kinsey (2004) |
"Neeson, in soft, subtle ways, draws out his character's humanity -- and shows the passion that drove the man." |
Steven Rea |
Splat 2.5/4 |
Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang (2005) |
"While Downey's rumpled insouciance jibes with the movie's jaded, narcissistic tone, it's a hard tone to take for a hundred minutes or so." |
Steven Rea |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kiss of the Dragon (2001) |
"Doesn't add anything new to the stranger-in-a -strange-land action genre, but, like Li's intrepid hero, it gets the job done." |
Steven Rea |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Kissing Jessica Stein (2002) |
"It's a charmer." |
Steven Rea |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kitchen Stories (2004) |
"A thoroughly charming oddity. And, in the end, a moving one, too." |
Steven Rea |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
The Kite Runner (2007) |
"A heartfelt saga of cruelty redeemed by belated love." |
Carrie Rickey |
Tomato |
A Knight's Tale (2001) |
"Bewildering but never boring." |
Carrie Rickey |
Splat 2/4 |
Knockaround Guys (2002) |
"It has its moments of swaggering camaraderie, but more often just feels generic, derivative and done to death." |
Steven Rea |
Tomato 3/4 |
Knocked Up (2007) |
"Apatow's marriage of guyville and girlworld is not one made in heaven -- he's too pragmatic to observe the rom-com conventions. What's potent about Knocked Up is its down-to-earthiness." |
Carrie Rickey |
Splat 2/4 |
Knowing (2009) |
"A weird and gloomy existential thriller." |
Steven Rea |
Splat 2.5/4 |
Kung Fu Hustle (2005) |
"Though I applaud kung-foolery and find Chow nimbly hilarious, Kung Fu Hustle's shotgun marriage of slapstick and brutality is unnerving in the make-'em-laugh, make-'em-gag manner of Quentin Tarantino." |
Carrie Rickey |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kung Fu Panda (2008) |
"While its storyline might seem familiar (in fact, very familiar if you've seen the recent live-action Jackie Chan/Jet Li hit, The Forbidden Kingdom), there's enough invention and irreverence to make the film feel fresh." |
Steven Rea |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kurt Cobain About a Son (2007) |
"Less a movie than an illustrated audiotape, Kurt Cobain: About a Son is nonetheless fascinating for what it reveals of its subject," |
Steven Rea |
