Rating Title Year Quote Author

Tomato

I Am Cuba (1964)

"It still has power to surprise and, occasionally, to enchant."

Scott Rosenberg

Tomato
3/4

I Am Legend (2007)

"The monsters are routine CGI creations, crudely animated and unconvincing. In a film of such visual majesty and surprisingly weighty drama, they present an unfortunate and needless distraction."

Rossiter Drake

Splat

I Am Sam (2002)

"A shamelessly contrived drama."

Joe Leydon

Splat
2.5/4

I Capture the Castle (2003)

"One of those movies in which the main characters talk endlessly about the great passions and burning fires of love, but the movie itself is so timid and restrained that it might make your eyelids feel heavy before it makes your heart feel light."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Splat

I Dreamed of Africa (2000)

"Directed by Chariots of Fire's Hugh Hudson, I Dreamed of Africa is a movie you hate on principle."

Wesley Morris

Tomato
5/5

I Live in Fear (1955)

Craig Marine

Tomato
3/4

I Love You, Man (2009)

"Rudd and Segel, whose on-screen chemistry is one of the movie's sublime pleasures, take what might have been a slick, formulaic exercise and turn it into the year's funniest film to date with their unselfconscious physical humor and goofy repartee."

Rossiter Drake

Bob Stephens

I Shot Andy Warhol (1996)

Barry Walters

Splat
.5/4

I Spy (2002)

"A dispiriting piece of hackwork that ranks somewhere close to The Mod Squad and McHale's Navy on the list of unnecessary and ill-conceived TV-to-movie spin-offs."

Joe Leydon

-

I Stand Alone (1998)

Wesley Morris

Splat

I Still Know What You Did Last Summer (1998)

"Only five movies into the latest recurrence of the slasher flick fad, and already it's run out of ideas."

G. Allen Johnson

Splat
2/4

I'm Not There (2007)

"Abstract expressionism, paying tribute to its hero in a fashion every bit as enigmatic and chameleon-like as the man himself. Is it a faux-documentary? Is it a biographical drama? At times, it is both. In the end, we are left with an ambitious misfire."

Rossiter Drake

Tomato
3/5

I, Madman (1989)

"This quirky and oddly nightmarish film doesn't always make sense but certainly gets points for trying."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

-

I, the Worst of All (1990)

Barbara Shulgasser

2/4

The Ice Storm (1997)

"[D]espite good performances and fine intentions, ultimately fails."

Barbara Shulgasser

Wesley Morris

The Idiots (1998)

Wesley Morris

Splat

Iguana (1988)

"As played by Everett McGill, the Iguana character, named Oberlus, is seriously unsympathetic and the film is subsequently hard to watch."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
5/5

Ikiru (1952)

"A heartbreaking masterwork from Kurosawa with nary a samurai in sight."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

The IMAX Nutcracker (1997)

3/5

Immortal Beloved (1994)

"Haunting use of Beethoven's music."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3/4

Importance of Being Earnest (2002)

"The actors appear to be having a grand time. And when Parker isn't driving them at full gallop, their merriment is highly contagious."

Joe Leydon

In America (2003)

"Comes across less as childlike and more as a parade of saccharine cliches."

In God's Hands (1998)

Jane Ganahl

Splat

In Harm's Way (1965)

"Preminger's black-and-white Cinemascope frame looks great... though the pacing becomes rather slack from time to time."

2.5/4

In the Company of Men (1997)

"The end is supposed to make us giddy with a plot well spun; instead, it leaves us flat."

G. Allen Johnson

Tomato
3.5/4

In the Cut (2003)

"Campion hits the same thematic ground with the same passionate release as she did in The Piano (1993) and the underrated Holy Smoke (1999)."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato

In the Mood for Love (2001)

"Wong Kar-wai makes movies that render all other movies plain and ordinary."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Splat

In the Mouth of Madness (1995)

"The names are big, but the payoff is small."

Christy Lemire

Splat
2/4

The Incredible Hulk (2008)

"Leterrier and screenwriter Zak Penn dispense with the angst and focus on the smash. The result is a movie that eschews dialogue (or anything resembling an idea, for that matter) in favor of hyper-violent mayhem and unconvincing CGI."

Rossiter Drake

-

Barbara Shulgasser

Splat
2/4

Independence Day (1996)

"Director Roland Emmerich has a knack for belaboring a point, explaining everything to us in dialogue and visuals often and repeatedly and over and over."

Barbara Shulgasser

Tomato

The Independent (2001)

"An amusing trifle aimed squarely at anyone who fondly recalls the low-budget, high-concept quickies of New World Pictures, American-International and other manufacturers of exploitation fare."

Joe Leydon

-

Barbara Shulgasser

Tomato
3/4

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)

"It's as good as it needs to be to justify its place in the Indiana Jones canon, and that should be enough."

Rossiter Drake

Infinity (1996)

Barbara Shulgasser

Tomato
3/4

The Informant! (2009)

"What makes the movie work is Damon's manic performance. His unflagging energy is appealing at first, but seems finally like the last recourse of a man every bit as desperate and pathetic as Tom Ripley."

Rossiter Drake

Tomato
4/4

Inglourious Basterds (2009)

"Is this Tarantino's masterpiece, as the movie's final shot not so subtly seems to suggest? I believe it's one of them. In the end, we're left with superior storytelling from one of cinema's most talented practitioners."

Rossiter Drake

Tomato

Innerspace (1987)

"A mix of exhilarating adventure and smart comedy."

Jeffrey M. Anderson
