Caché (2005) |
"A slow-moving, nearly static exercise in political allegory that veers perilously close to the experience of watching paint dry." |
Jack Garner |
Tomato 8/10 |
Calendar Girls (2003) |
"Though none of the middle-aged women will challenge the Playboy playmates of any month, their spunk and playfulness are undeniable." |
Jack Garner |

Calle 54 (2001) |
"An audio-visual delight of a documentary." |

Can't Hardly Wait (1998) |
" Barry Manilow? Can't hardly wait for it to be over." |
Jack Garner |
Tomato 10/10 |
Capote (2005) |
"After the initial shock of hearing Capote's familiar squeak of a voice, and seeing his no-nonsense walk and his flamboyant mannerisms, we realize Hoffman is going far deeper, giving us a portrait of uncommon subtlety and emotional depth." |
Jack Garner |
Tomato 7/10 |
Captain Corelli's Mandolin (2001) |
"Like a folk ballad plucked on a mandolin, the new Nicolas Cage-Penelope Cruz film is sometimes overly familiar, even a bit maudlin, but still touchingly romantic." |
Jack Garner |
Tomato 9/10 |
Capturing the Friedmans (2003) |
"A gripping portrait of a family undone by guilt, suspicion and accusations." |

Casa de los Babys (2003) |
"Displays a succinct sensitivity making it [Sayles'] best film since Lone Star." |

Casanova (2005) |
"Casanova's tale has been told many times before, but seldom with such light-hearted flair and puckish humor." |
Jack Garner |
Tomato 9/10 |
Casino Royale (2006) |
"Craig is marvelous, showing a depth and grit of character that easily makes him the most realistic Bond since Sean Connery." |

The Cat's Meow (2002) |
"An intriguing, richly detailed look at the early days of Hollywood power and glamour." |
Jack Garner |
Tomato 8/10 |
Catch a Fire (2006) |
"Noyce's film rises on the undeniable aura of authenticity, because his story is based on real events and people. (And actors Tim Robbins and Derek Luke create vivid characters on opposite sides of South Africa's brutal struggle.)" |
Jack Garner |
Tomato 6/10 |
Catch and Release (2007) |
"Catch and Release seems both too long (at nearly two hours) and too short (with under-developed plot lines). Still, you may enjoy Gray and Sam, and even Fritz, enough to stay involved." |
Jack Garner |
Tomato 10/10 |
Catch Me If You Can (2002) |
"The film is easily the most light-hearted movie from Spielberg in more than a decade -- and the season's most entertaining light fare." |

Catch That Kid (2004) |
"Catch That Kid? You shouldn't bother." |

Cats & Dogs (2001) |
"Cats & Dogs has none of the intriguing charm of the Babe films -- it fails to establish animal characters we can care about. With few exceptions, the pets are nothing more than furry pawns." |

Charlie's Angels (2000) |
"Yes, the new Charlie's Angels is silly, brain-dead and implausible. But this hip-chick Bond flick is also the most fun I've had at the movies this season." |

Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle (2003) |
"Jam-packed with bikini-clad eye candy, loud music, louder explosions and enough action to appease any ADD audience." |
