Splat

W. (2008)

"When historians do assess Bush's presidency, they probably won't consult a film offering more cheap jabs than insight."

Carla Meyer

Tomato

Wag the Dog (1997)

"Wicked, poisonous fun."

Joe Baltake

Splat
2/4

Waiting to Exhale (1995)

"With one possible exception, none of its women is at all likable."

Joe Baltake

Splat
1.5/4

Waiting... (2005)

"Whether via Jennifer Aniston's waitress character in Office Space or your own acne-aggravating teenage stint in front of a fryer, you've probably seen these situations, and these jokes, before."

Carla Meyer

Tomato
3.5/4

Waitress (2007)

"In Waitress, the late writer-director Adrienne Shelly crafted a highly entertaining yet poignant film featuring a complex heroine."

Carla Meyer

Tomato
2.5/4

A Wake in Providence (2005)

"A pretty decent comedy of manners."

Carla Meyer

Tomato

Waking Life (2001)

"Truly a one-of -a-kind movie."

Joe Baltake

Splat
2.5/4

Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (2007)

"Walk Hard doesn't know when to quit."

Tomato
3/4

Walk the Line (2005)

"Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon will likely be nominated for Oscars for their phenomenal performances as Johnny Cash and June Carter in Walk the Line."

Carla Meyer

Tomato

A Walk to Remember (2002)

"Personally, I would have preferred a little more restraint -- a film less stacked in one direction -- but you can't deny that this little movie has a big heart that's in the right place."

Joe Baltake

-

Walking and Talking (1996)

Joe Baltake

Splat
2.5/4

Walking Tall (2004)

"It isn't much of a movie -- the plotline has been whittled down to next to nothing -- but it's a terrific showcase for its formidable star."

Joe Baltake

Tomato
4/4

WALL-E (2008)

"Offers a touching robot romance, visuals as artful as they are state-of-the- art, and vital messages about environmental and personal health."

Carla Meyer

Tomato
3/4

Wanted (2008)

"Wanted engages and even wows throughout, thanks to its exceptional visuals and something far more rare in a summer blockbuster: a stellar lead performance."

Carla Meyer

Splat
2.5/4

War of the Worlds (2005)

"Technically flawless but not especially moving."

Carla Meyer

Tomato

The Watcher (2000)

"The Watcher is thoroughly European, a nice find."

Joe Baltake

Splat

Watchmen (2009)

"This adaptation of the acclaimed 1980s graphic novel never fully satisfies, despite powerful fight scenes and one superb performance."

Carla Meyer

Tomato
3.5/4

Waterworld (1995)

"Waterworld is the movie that didn't happen. Which is a roundabout way of saying that the infamous Universal film is very good, damn good -- not great, mind you, but rousing and continually entertaining."

Joe Baltake

Tomato
3.5/4

The Way Home (2002)

"[The kid's] selfishness is difficult to watch at times, but if you have patience on the level of Granny's, the payoff is big."

Joe Baltake

-

The Way of the Gun (2000)

Joe Baltake

Splat
2.5/4

We Are Marshall (2006)

"This particular movie, obviously carefully and thoroughly researched, needed to articulate the experiences of the townspeople of Huntington more thoroughly than it does."

Carla Meyer

Splat
2/4

We Don't Live Here Anymore (2004)

"A terribly slim, pretentious movie that wallows in the monotonous, far-from- fascinating angst of its self-involved characters."

Joe Baltake

Tomato
3.5/4

We Were Soldiers (2002)

"In the end, his We Were Soldiers works as a new hybrid -- the war film as a tearjerker."

Joe Baltake

Splat
2/4

The Weather Man (2005)

"The main thing he seems to worry about, as he sits, despondent, in his luxury loft, is that he makes a lot of money for doing very little -- a problem everyone would like to have."

Carla Meyer

Tomato
3/4

Wedding Crashers (2005)

"A profane, uproariously funny film that celebrates and chastises the aging womanizers at its center, played by Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson."

Carla Meyer

-

The Wedding Planner (2001)

Joe Baltake

Tomato
3.5/4

Welcome to Collinwood (2002)

"It's a bellini."

Joe Baltake

Tomato
3/4

Welcome to Mooseport (2004)

"Nothing much happens in Welcome to Mooseport, but for a little less than two hours you can take a vacation with some very companionable people in a truly nice place."

4/4

Wendy and Lucy (2008)

"The current economic crisis has turned this fictional story of one woman's string of bad luck into a tale that seems real and relatable."

Carla Meyer

West Beirut (1998)

Joe Baltake

Tomato
3/4

What a Girl Wants (2003)

"Incredibly poised and with charm to spare, Bynes makes a nice companion and guide through her film's various plot points and tested cliches."

Joe Baltake

Splat
2/4

What Happens in Vegas (2008)

"Directed by Tom Vaughan and written by Dana Fox, who also wrote the excruciating The Wedding Date, this film often seems improvised, and not in a good way. Some setups go nowhere, and some jokes never get set up at all."

Carla Meyer

Splat

What Just Happened (2008)

"Entourage and Ricky Gervais' Extras have thoroughly mined Hollywood excess, lampooned "visionary," unhygienic directors and showcased big stars spoofing themselves. So when a film does the same things, it can seem like old hat."

Carla Meyer

What the Bleep Do We Know? (2004)

"Weirdly entertaining."

Joe Baltake

Tomato

What Women Want (2000)

"Gibson turns in one of those rare comedy performances that, every so often, manages to snag an Oscar nomination. And, you know, he deserves one."

Joe Baltake

Tomato

What's Cooking? (2000)

"Chadha juggles her characters so deftly that we never get tired of any of them and eagerly look forward to returning to each table as her camera jumps around."

Whatever Happened to Harold Smith? (2001)

"Steiner and Hewitt couldn't decide which tale they wanted to tell -- Vince's or Harold's -- and so we get both, each one getting in the way of the other."

Joe Baltake

Splat

Whatever It Takes (2000)

"Lame corruption of the 'Cyrano' legend."
