Tomato 3/4 |
Adventureland (2009) |
"Filled with likable actors and 1980s pop songs, Adventureland ambles, entertains and … ends … without ever trying to be more than a tribute to odd jobs, unlikely friends and hanging out." |
Carla Meyer |
Splat 1.5/4 |
Adventures of Sharkboy and Lava Girl in 3-D (2005) |
"Visually and even physically irritating, the movie follows dream logic, which is to say, no logic at all." |
Carla Meyer |
Splat 2/4 |
All The King's Men (2006) |
"All the King's Men doesn't reveal anything new about the ins and outs of politics, even as it insists, via showy visuals and James Horner's sledgehammer score, that it is revelatory." |
Carla Meyer |
Splat 2/4 |
Alvin and the Chipmunks (2007) |
"The film engages for about 30 minutes, or about 10 minutes longer than you might expect. This picture, after all, has only one idea: chipmunks that talk and sing. It's the same idea that fueled novelty recordings and a two cartoon series." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 3/4 |
American Gangster (2007) |
"American Gangster is 2 1/2 hours of pleasure with a guilty aftertaste." |
Carla Meyer |
Splat 2/4 |
The Amityville Horror (2005) |
"Is it scarier than the original? No, despite souped-up visuals by commercial and music-video director Andrew Douglas, making his feature-film debut." |
Carla Meyer |
Splat 2/4 |
Angels & Demons (2009) |
"Angels & Demons might cause controversy among viewers who like their Tom Hanks films to be of some substance." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Apocalypto (2006) |
"The seamlessness of the actors' performances underscores Gibson's directing skills." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 3/4 |
Appaloosa (2008) |
"Appaloosa carries a whiff of feminism. Or at least an awareness of what life was like for women on the frontier." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Aquamarine (2006) |
"Heartfelt but clunky, the mermaid-out-of-water story Aquamarine offers enough female-positive messages to make it worthwhile viewing for 'tween' girls." |
Carla Meyer |
Splat 1.5/4 |
Are We Done Yet? (2007) |
"In most films, a bathroom-related joke would represent the lowest form of humor. In this one, it's a highlight." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Aristocrats (2005) |
"An intentionally one-joke film, The Aristocrats can't help but be repetitive, and its endless muck and perversions can wear on a viewer." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Astronaut Farmer (2007) |
"Lovely on many levels, from its gauzily sunlit interiors and sweeping shots of stunning landscape to its warm depiction of family, The Astronaut Farmer reveals an ornery individualism as it unfolds." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Atonement (2007) |
"Epic and heart-rending, Atonement accents its old-fashioned qualities with a modern-day frankness." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato |
Australia (2008) |
"For much of its more than 2 1/2- hour length, this sweeping film from Aussie director Baz Luhrmann provides old-fashioned thrills and entertainment." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 4/4 |
Away From Her (2007) |
"With Away From Her, Christie, Pinsent and actress-turned-filmmaker Sarah Polley have crafted an intensely moving portrait of a marriage." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 4/4 |
Apollo 13: The IMAX Experience (2002) |
"The transfer to the IMAX screen diminishes none of the film's drama, which was always much more about human emotions than technology." |
David Barton |
Splat 2/4 |
The Assassination of Richard Nixon (2004) |
"The polemical nature of the film undermines any possibility of satire, as the posturing grows more ludicrous by the scene." |
David Barton |
Tomato 3/4 |
Aliens of the Deep (2005) |
"An adventure that -- right up until the end -- is a magnificent journey of scientific discovery and exploration." |
Jim Carnes |
Tomato |
A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001) |
"Seriously flawed but provocative and fascinating nonetheless." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Abandon (2002) |
"[Gaghan] successfully illustrates that if a filmmaker is capable and intelligent -- and assumes that his audience is the same -- he can transcend the limitations of even so lowly a genre." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
About a Boy (2002) |
"About a Boy vividly recalls the Cary Grant of Room for One More, Houseboat and Father Goose in its affectionate depiction of the gentle war between a reluctant, irresponsible man and the kid who latches onto him." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato 3/4 |
About Schmidt (2002) |
"I liked About Schmidt a lot, but I have a feeling that I would have liked it much more if Harry & Tonto never existed." |

"The film is cute but never much beyond that." |

Alex and Emma (2003) |
"This seriously dull romantic comedy -- an anti-romantic comedy, to be more accurate -- is something of a chore to sit through, with its biggest laugh coming even before its story kicks in." |
Joe Baltake |
Splat 2.5/4 |
Alexander (2004) |
"Ultimately stumbles and falls, much like the horses in the battle scenes. But it is an interesting failure, always brimming with life." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato 3/4 |
Alfie (2004) |
"It lacks the harsh, biting punch of its memorable 1966 predecessor. And perhaps there was no other way to do it." |
Joe Baltake |
Tomato |
Ali (2001) |
"Even though Smith is nothing at all like Ali in either looks or temperament, the young actor has obsessively willed himself to become Muhammad Ali." |
