Tomato 3/4 |
Tadpole (2002) |
"Tadpole will delight audiences for its comedy." |
Mick LaSalle |
Tomato 4/4 |
Tae Guk Gi: The Brotherhood of War (2004) |
"Epic in scope and violent in a way that every war film has to be since Saving Private Ryan, Taegukgi is a big-time movie that never loses sight of its human story." |
G. Allen Johnson |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Tailor of Panama (2001) |
"Very talky -- fortunately, with actors like these and a script by Andrew Davies, Boorman and Le Carre himself, the talk is frequently good." |
Bob Graham |
Tomato 4/4 |
The Take (2004) |
"A balance of fact and fury." |
Jonathan Curiel |
Tomato 3/4 |
Take Care of My Cat (2001) |
"Take Care is nicely performed by a quintet of actresses, but nonetheless it drags during its 112-minute length." |
Edward Guthmann |
Tomato 3/4 |
Take My Eyes (2006) |
"A mesmerizing and deeply disturbing film from Spain." |
|
Splat 2/4 |
Take the Lead (2006) |
"Although based on a true story, Take the Lead continually strains credibility." |
Ruthe Stein |
Tomato 3/4 |
Taken (2009) |
"I won't tell you Taken is great, but it's great fun." |
Mick LaSalle |
Splat 2/4 |
Taking Lives (2004) |
"To buy this picture, you have to buy Jolie's character, and the actress succeeds much of the time. But once her contained, job-obsessed agent gets involved with a man close to her case, much of what came before is negated." |
Carla Meyer |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009) |
"The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 has all the usual virtues of a good action suspense drama." |
Mick LaSalle |
Splat 1/4 |
Taking Sides (2003) |
"The movie's promise -- to provide a balanced argument -- goes unrealized, and all we're left with is the spectacle of an idiot bullying a genius." |
Mick LaSalle |
Tomato 3/4 |
Taking Woodstock (2009) |
"Taking Woodstock has the appeal of an inside story told from an especially good angle. But beyond that, the movie is a celebration of the way this event has gone into memory and of the meaning it has acquired." |
Mick LaSalle |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Tale of Despereaux (2008) |
"The Tale of Despereaux may not be a classic, but it still has a lot of class." |
Peter Hartlaub |
Tomato 3/4 |
A Tale Of Two Sisters (2003) |
"[Kim] creates stunning images ripe with meaning." |
Ruthe Stein |
Splat 1/4 |
The Talent Given Us (2004) |
"We're encouraged to believe that at least some of what we're hearing is a reflection of 'real' family concerns, but the film makes it impossible to tell what's genuine and what's pretend in all the soul-baring." |
Walter V. Addiego |
Tomato 4/4 |
The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) |
"If anybody can create sympathy for the devil, the angelic Matt Damon can." |
Bob Graham |
Splat 1/4 |
Tales from the Crypt - Bordello of Blood (1996) |
"This gory vampire spoof is remarkably free of jolts, hardly registering as a fright film, with a series of weak special effects involving many globs of guts." |
Peter Stack |
Splat 2/4 |
Tales from the Crypt - Demon Knight (1995) |
"The movie isn't particularly well-paced, and I found it dull." |

Talk to Her (2002) |
"This is Almodovar's stab at serious drama, and the result is bizarre and affecting but also unsettling in ways that the filmmaker may not have intended." |
Mick LaSalle |
Splat 2/4 |
Talk to Me (2007) |
"Watching it becomes an exercise in frustration when a potentially great movie winds up buried inside a just OK one." |

Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006) |
"The picture gets a bit long near the finish. But comedies live and die on the basis of their laugh quotient, and Talladega Nights gets its share." |
Mick LaSalle |
Splat 2/4 |
Tamala 2010 (2003) |
"The anime Tamala 2010 asks a lot of the viewer, but it gives something back, though I'm not sure exactly what." |

Tape (2001) |
"Like most movies by Linklater, it's the kind of film that doesn't usually get made -- a dramatic chamber piece for young people." |
Mick LaSalle |
Tomato 3/4 |
Tarnation (2004) |
"A lacerating portrait of a family in free-fall." |
Walter V. Addiego |

Taste of Cherry (1997) |
"Kiarostami is in no rush, but the respect and love he shows for his characters, and the confidence and simplicity of his technique, make Taste of Cherry a satisfying experience." |
Edward Guthmann |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Taste of Others (2001) |
"Rich with vivid characters and revelations about the illogical yet human ways in which we crash and intersect." |
Edward Guthmann |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
The Taste of Tea (2004) |
"Quirky with a capital Q..." |
G. Allen Johnson |
Splat 2/4 |
Tattoo (2002) |
"It's all gratuitous before long, as if Schwentke were fulfilling a gross-out quota for an anticipated audience demographic instead of shaping the material to fit the story." |
Edward Guthmann |
Tomato 2/4 |
Taxi (2004) |
"A formula picture, with enough laughs to get by." |
Mick LaSalle |
Tomato 4/4 |
Taxi Driver (1976) |
"The heart and soul of Taxi Driver are twisted in a way that can't be faked or copied." |
Mick LaSalle |
Tomato 5/5 |
Taxi to the Dark Side (2008) |
"Will go down in film history as a damning historical document of the Bush administration's wartime expansion of executive powers." |
Tamara Straus |
Tomato 4/4 |
Tazza: The High Rollers (2006) |
"It's a ton of fun, a totally irresistible tale of gambling, greed, love and violence. With gorgeous actors, designer clothes and thrilling action, it's fast-moving (even at 2 hours, 20 minutes) popcorn entertainment." |
G. Allen Johnson |

Teacher's Pet (2004) |
"Originality aside, parents expecting a mainstream film may want to wait until another Disney cartoon featuring happy woodland creatures comes along." |

Teaching Mrs. Tingle (1999) |
"Spiteful and shallow!" |
Mick LaSalle |
Splat 0/4 |
Team America: World Police (2004) |
"As puppetry, Team America is stilted. As satire, it's gutless and lazy. And as comedy, it barely delivers laughs." |
Mick LaSalle |
Splat 2/4 |
Tears of the Black Tiger (2000) |
"It's watchable, but eventually wears you down with its over-the-top cleverness." |
Ruthe Stein |
Tomato 2/4 |
Tears of the Sun (2003) |
"At its best, it's a little hard to sit through. At its worst, it's like every other picture about soldiers on a tough mission. What pushes it above mediocrity is that it ends better than it begins." |
Mick LaSalle |
Splat 2/4 |
Teddy Bears' Picnic (2002) |
"The satire is unfocused, while the story goes nowhere." |
Mick LaSalle |
Tomato 4/5 |
Teeth (2008) |
"Extremely funny, very clever and still packs some cover-your-face bloody thrills that top any Saw or Hostel movie." |
Peter Hartlaub |
