The Da Vinci Code (2006) |
"How dark the con of Ron - The Da Vinci Code plays sort of like National Treasure with any sense of fun sucked out of it." |

Daddy Day Care (2003) |
"Supporting players save "Daddy's" day in this pleasant, fitfully amusing family comedy which entertains despite an inconsistent script (Geoff Rodkey) and insipid direction" |
Laura Clifford |
Tomato B- |
Daddy Day Care (2003) |
"["Daddy Day Care"] is a straightforward, don’t-expect-any-surprises kind of pre-summer entertainment that has a good supporting cast, precocious kids and a premise that lends itself to slapstick comedy." |

Tomato A- |
The Damned United (2009) |
"...one of the best sports films ever made, despite the paucity of play on the actual field. Many think Sheen has been unfairly overlooked by the Academy for past performances, but his Brian Clough is a career best." |
Laura Clifford |
Tomato B- |
Dan in Real Life (2007) |
"...a thoroughly contrived romantic comedy that is spiked into the end zone by its engaging cast and shambling production design." |

The Dancer Upstairs (2003) |
"The screenplay [of "The Dancer Upstairs"] works more than it doesn't but there isn't the chemistry between the stars I would like to see." |

Daredevil (2003) |
"“Daredevil” is, first, for the fans of Stan Lee’s oeuvre and, then, for superhero comic fans everywhere." |
Robin Clifford |
Tomato B- |
The Darjeeling Limited (2007) |
"The director and co-writer [Wes Anderson] has some deep thoughts going on in his head that are translated to the screen." |
Robin Clifford |
Tomato B |
Dark Blue (2003) |
"David Ayer's
("Training Day") adaptation of a James Ellroy story is a more
believable take on the 'corrupt older cop tries to seduce trainee
partner' than the incredible twenty-four fireworks of "Training
Day" and its thoroughly evil protagonist" |
Laura Clifford |
Tomato B |
Dark Blue (2003) |
"The director [Ron Shelton] takes the material, with the exemplary performance by Russell, and crafts it into a gritty, hard-hitting look into corruption and abuse." |

The Dark Knight (2008) |
"Director Christopher Nolan, who cowrote this dense, dark story with brother Jonathan, has taken the comic book super hero movie onto another plateau...Post 9/11 themes dominate..." |

The Dark Knight (2008) |
"The hardware is played down this time and the result is character intensive movie that just so happens to have some of the best special effects of the season." |

Dark Matter (2008) |
"...an interesting study of Chinese students trying to assimilate into the American educational system that fails to lay the groundwork for its violent ending." |

Dark Water (2005) |
"It's hard to resist sure-to-be-cliched adjectives like soggy and waterlogged when describing this film." |

Dark Water (2005) |
"The horror of this mostly horrorless movie consists of the title water gushing from every plumbing orifice available. It may be icky but it sure isn’t scary." |

Darkness Falls (2003) |
"Neophyte director Jonathan Liebesman tries to dredge up chills with loud noises and those unexpected black cats that jump out of total darkness...For a really scary Tooth Fairy, try Tom Noonan in Michael Mann's "Manhunter."" |

Dave Chappelle's Block Party (2006) |

Dawn of the Dead (2004) |
"“Dawn of the Dead” is a fast paced actioner that will please the fans of Romero’s work and attract a whole new gang of gore hounds" |
Robin Clifford |

The Day After Tomorrow (2004) |
"Emmerich builds his global disaster invigoratingly and the special effects team are to be commended, but the screenplay is a holey assemblage of cliche and borrowings" |

Days and Clouds (2008) |
