G-Force (2009) |
"It's the template for either a video game or a Disney theme park ride, or perhaps both." |

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009) |
"There's an expectation that the audience will be invested in the relationship between Duke and Ana, but the poor writing and lack of chemistry between the principals fails to sell the romance as anything more substantial than a weak plot element." |
James Berardinelli |
Tomato 3/4 |
Galaxy Quest (1999) |
"In many ways, Galaxy Quest is more fantasy than science fiction. It's a lighthearted romp." |

Gamer (2009) |
"Add an element of interactivity into the hyperkinetic, repetitive action, plodding narrative, and stupefyingly obvious social commentary, and the potential might exist for something entertaining." |
James Berardinelli |

Games People Play: New York (2004) |
"Part documentary, part parody, and part something indefinable, the film manages to succeed on its own terms and entertain on just about anyone's." |

Garfield the Movie (2004) |

Gattaca (1997) |
"Gattaca doesn't just function as a science fiction thriller, but as both a cautionary tale about the dangers of letting scientific ability outstrip ethics and as a morality play about the irrationality of bigotry." |

George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead (2008) |
"Not only the most satisfying motion picture Romero has made in a long while, but one of the best of his career." |

George A. Romero's Land of the Dead (2005) |
"There's a sense that Romero has run out of ideas and is recycling." |

George of the Jungle (1997) |
"The comedy in George of the Jungle is not sophisticated, but it is frequently audacious and irreverent." |

Georgia Rule (2007) |
"The central problem with the movie isn't that it deals with several hot-button topics, but that it addresses them with a shocking lack of emotional honesty." |

Get Real (1999) |
"In Steven, John, and their friends, Shore gives us individuals worth caring about in situations we can all relate to, regardless of our sexual orientation." |

Get Shorty (1995) |
"While it's quite possible for the cinematically unaware to enjoy this film, this is a real treat for movie buffs. The story is as much about the love of motion pictures as it is about gangsters." |
James Berardinelli |
Tomato 3/4 |
Get Smart (2008) |
"This is one instance when a TV series-based movie rewards nostalgia without demanding it. Get Smart is funny enough in its own right to attract younger viewers while paying homage to its 40-year old predecessor." |

The Ghost and the Darkness (1996) |

Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai (1999) |
"Only the most ardent Jarmusch fan will be able to suspend disbelief, and the movie turns into an exercise in ideas rather than an excursion along a stable narrative route." |

Ghost Town (2008) |
"Ghost Town's unwillingness to escape from a safe orbit keeps the movie trapped in mediocrity." |

Ghost World (2001) |
"A refreshing change from the usual summer fare, offering interesting characters, smart dialogue, biting satire (the concept of 'high art' gets shredded), and dark comedy." |
James Berardinelli |
Splat 2.5/4 |
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past (2009) |
"The Dickens elements elevate Ghosts of Girlfriends Past above the level of pure formula; unfortunately, the presence of McConaughey in full sleaze mode makes it difficult to like this film's Scrooge, even after his redemption occurs." |

Gigantic (2008) |
"The characters and situations are a little too quirky for their own good. Everyone is skewed off-center and, while that can be charming in small measures, Gigantic overdoses on it." |
James Berardinelli |

Gigli (2003) |
"This isn't a good film, but, when set alongside the likes of Dumb and Dumberer and Legally Blonde 2, Jen & Ben offer less pain." |

The Gingerbread Man (1998) |
"Although The Gingerbread Man is a finely-tuned example of mainstream entertainment, and holds the audience's interest for most of its running length, it is a little disappointing." |
