The Namesake (2007) |

The Nanny Diaries (2007) |
"With the exception of Laura Linney's perceptive portrayal of Mrs. X...everything about this film falls flat beginning with Johansson's lead performance." |
Laura Clifford |
Tomato B |
Nanny McPhee (2006) |
"...a very adult revel in all things childish and a comical expression of dramatic themes. While not quite a classic, it is nonetheless a magically constructed children's film.

Napoleon Dynamite (2004) |
"This goofy American original works largely due to the determined weirdness of star Jon Heder" |

Napoleon Dynamite (2004) |

Narc (2002) |
"Support is top notch across the board, with John Ortiz ("Ali") most notable as Octavio Ruiz, a pantless crack addict who set his girlfriend's hair on fire for giving him the clap who then goes on to profess his love for her" |
Laura Clifford |
Tomato B |
Narc (2002) |

Nathalie (2003) |
"A final big 'twist,' which should be no surprise..., sets everything to right again, a case of French marital therapy by way of the Red Shoe Diaries.

Neil Young - Heart of Gold (2006) |
"There's a poignancy hearing Young's refrain, 'and I'm gettin' old,' almost a quarter of a century later and a bit of awe that the voice sounds so much the same." |

Never Again (2002) |
"Acting, particularly by Tambor, almost makes "Never Again" worthwhile, but [writer/director] Schaeffer should follow his titular advice" |

Never Again (2002) |
"...the good and different idea [of middle-aged romance] is not handled well and, except for the fine star performances, there is little else to recommend “Never Again.”" |

Never Forever (2008) |
"This erotically charged melodrama about two vastly different Korean experiences in New York City and the Caucasian woman straddling both is beautifully directed by Gina Kim who balances emotional subtleties and highly charged scenarios without ever losing" |
Laura Clifford |

Never Say Macbeth (2007) |
"...sweetened by the 'let's put on a show!' quality of the filmmaking. Theater lovers, in particular, should get a kick out of this slight but likable effort." |

The New World (2005) |

Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (2008) |
""Nick and Nora" should prove a breakout for both lead Dennings and Ari Graynor who bears the load of the film's physical and gross out comedy as Nora's thoroughly drunk yet endearing best friend Caroline" |
Laura Clifford |

American teen sex comedies." |

Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian (2009) |

Night Watch (2005) |
"...a grungy, flashy looking film that should please genre fans, but on the whole it's all rather predictable. The truest test - whether it inspires a desire for its sequels - only attains a half-hearted passing grade.
