Haiku Tunnel (2001) |
"It starts off disarming and charming but grows tedious in its fastidious attention to meaningless details." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Hairspray (2007) |
"A lively, engaging and sweet-natured movie musical." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 3/4 |
Half Nelson (2006) |

Tomato 3.5/4 |
Hamlet (1996) |
"Moviegoers who applauded the vigilante justice in such recent films as Joel Schumacher's A Time To Kill and Barry Levinson's Sleepers should be totally in sync with the action and have no trouble surmounting the verbiage." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Hamlet (2000) |
"It may work only in fits -- as an experiment usually does -- but you also can't deny that this is a true, fresh adaptation." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Hamlet 2 (2008) |
"Coogan brings an innocent quality to Dana, who knows he lacks talent but loves the craft so much that he hangs on however he can." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Hammer (2008) |
"Carolla is winning in The Hammer, which evokes Rocky and just about every other lovable-loser sports movie while showing enough comic originality to hold interest throughout." |
Carla Meyer |

Hancock (2008) |
"Ill-conceived and oddly executed, this Will Smith vehicle perplexes more often than it entertains." |

Hanging Up (2000) |
"So much better than its trailer implies." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
The Hangover (2009) |
"It distinguishes itself from other what-happens-in-Vegas comedies (practically a subgenre at this point) by setting an especially vivid scene and telling an actual story instead of pasting together random shenanigans the way many modern comedies do." |
Carla Meyer |
Splat |
Hannibal (2001) |
"The Hamlet of Freddy Krueger movies." |
Joe Baltake |
Splat 1.5/4 |
The Happening (2008) |
"The story essentially stops moving midway through. All that's going to occur, in terms of building any true dramatic tension, already has happened by this point." |

Happy Accidents (2001) |
"Its rampant oddness is certain to polarize audiences." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato 3/4 |
Happy Endings (2005) |
"Roos does better at imparting a sense of the striving that's inherent to L.A., letting us know, through the characters' living situations, that not everyone shares in the town's magic." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 3/4 |
Happy Feet (2006) |
"Offering gorgeous visuals along with fun songs and plenty of humor, Australian director George Miller's (Babe) Antarctica-set, computer-animated musical ranks just behind Cars among the year's animated films." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Happy Times (2002) |
"This humbling little film, fueled by the light comedic work of Zhao Benshan and the delicate ways of Dong Jie, is just the sort for those moviegoers who complain that 'they don't make movies like they used to anymore.'" |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato |
Happy Together (1997) |
"Wong continues to demonstrate his effortless command of the camera." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato 3/4 |
Happy, Texas (1999) |
"Happy, Texas is a good, winning combination of imitation and inventiveness." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato |
Happy-Go-Lucky (2008) |
"That smile is so winning it's almost transcendent (kind of like Julia Roberts' smile, back when she used to smile). But it's Hawkins' depth that ultimately sells the film's premise." |
Carla Meyer |

Hard Eight (1997) |

The Harmonists (1997) |

Harrison's Flowers (2002) |
"You might say that world news has caught up with Harrison's Flowers, making it both topical and suddenly relevant." |

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002) |
"The Godfather II of family films." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato 3/4 |
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005) |
"With Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, director Mike Newell offers a fine addition to the Harry Potter film franchise without presenting any truly spectacular elements." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato |
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) |
"[The filmmakers] keep Order of the Phoenix consistently involving. But it's Radcliffe who truly shines here." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 4/4 |
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004) |
"Until an even more impressive chapter comes along, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban looms as the apex of the phenomenal new film franchise based on J.K. Rowling's celebrated series of novels." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato |
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001) |
"If every movie that's greedily earmarked as a cinematic franchise could be as immaculately conceived as Chris Columbus' Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, there would be no reason to complain about the crass commercialization of films." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato 3/4 |
Hart's War (2002) |
"The movie itself is far from disappointing, offering an original take on courtroom movies, a few nifty twists that are so crucial to the genre and another first-rate performance by top-billed star Bruce Willis." |

He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not (2003) |
"Nothing can prepare you for the twisty -- and twisted -- details the 26-year-old Colombani almost fiendishly brings to her story of misguided love." |
Joe Baltake |
Splat 2.5/4 |
He's Just Not That Into You (2009) |
"That a star-filled romantic comedy based on a pop best-seller adheres to convention doesn't surprise, but the filmmakers go too far by forcing two of the most pathological characters together." |
Carla Meyer |
Splat 2/4 |
Head in the Clouds (2004) |
"It's wonderfully terrible." |

Head Over Heels (2001) |
"Potter ... is a charming on-screen surrogate for the young girls in the audience." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
The Heart of the Game (2006) |
"A filmmaker of great patience, Serrill chronicled Resler's teams for several years, demonstrating that if one sticks to a subject long enough, powerful things will emerge." |

Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008) |
"Combining animatronics, digital effects -- and most important, the director's fertile imagination -- Hellboy II gives us a taste of the magic del Toro is sure to bring to J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit." |
