James and the Giant Peach (1996) |
"On the whole, the movie is a success. I still hope that children and their parents will read this wonderful book together, but it's nice that there's a movie they can see, too." |

The Jaundiced Eye (1999) |
"The finest element in de la Pena's carefully assembled account is how she doesn't simply state the obvious, but lets the meaty facts speak for themselves." |
Wesley Morris |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
JCVD (2008) |
"Van Damme delivers a devastating performance as a downtrodden caricature of himself, infusing the role with such emotional complexity that he seems at times almost unrecognizable." |

Jeepers Creepers (2001) |
"Lazily arbitrary plot twists and sadistic mayhem that, even by slasher-flick standards, is unconscionably off-putting." |

John Q (2002) |

Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie (2002) |
"Even if you're an agnostic carnivore, you can enjoy much of Jonah simply, and gratefully, as laugh-out-loud lunacy with a pronounced Monty Pythonesque flavor." |

Judge Dredd (1995) |
"Most of the time the sound effects are so loud that much of the poetic and subtly nuanced dialogue is unintelligible." |

Julie & Julia (2009) |
"The movie is sweet, amusing and, unlike one of Child's decadent platters of beef bourguignon, mostly weightless; if not for Streep's expert portrayal, which is boundlessly energetic and respectful, it might float off the screen." |

Julien Donkey-Boy (1999) |

Jumper (2008) |

Jung (War) in the Land of the Mujaheddin (2001) |
"May not make you feel better, exactly, but it will enlighten you, expand your thought process, and lift you out of the Hollywood Matrix that prefers to batter you with military recruitment films disguised as Saving Private Ryan and the like." |

Just Cause (1995) |

Just Married (2003) |
