Tomato
3/4

P.O.V. - What I Want My Words to Do to You (2003)

"This film is one bitter pill, but a hugely rewarding one."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
2.5/4

P.S. Your Cat is Dead! (2002)

"Guttenberg's Jimmy is such a natural extension of the actor himself, which adds a dimension the original playwright never could have imagined."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3/4

P2 (2007)

"It's lurid and overblown, relying on its lionhearted heroine never to play her most obvious escape card, but for those with a taste for such silliness, it makes for a harrowing night at the movies."

Rossiter Drake

Walter V. Addiego

Tomato

Pandora's Box (1928)

"It would be impossible to name all the artists who have been touched by Pandora's Box, but novelist Vladimir Nabokov, filmmakers Rainer Werner Fassbinder and Quentin Tarantino, and pop singers Madonna and Siouxsie Sioux are but an obvious few."

Barry Walters

Tomato
3/4

Panic Room (2002)

"Style dominates content, even when it comes to such niceties as continuity and establishing shots."

Joe Leydon

-

Paperback Romance (1994)

Barbara Shulgasser

Tomato
3/5

The Paradine Case (1947)

"This universally despised Hitchcock is actually a pretty good little courtroom drama."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

-

Walter V. Addiego

-

Paradise Road (1997)

Edvins Beitiks

Tomato
3/4

Paranoid Park (2008)

"In a film where dialogue comes at a premium, Van Sant allows his camera to do the talking, and when it rests too long on one subject, the commentary feels like overstatement. Elsewhere, 'Paranoid Park' is eloquent in its terseness."

Rossiter Drake

Splat
2.5/4

Paranormal Activity (2009)

"There are few surprises in 'Paranormal Activity,' from its beginning to its ho-hum ending. But there are enough jolts in the night to keep you alert, and otherworldly intrusions that make the skin crawl."

Rossiter Drake

-

The Parent Trap (1998)

Barbara Shulgasser

Splat
0/5

Parenthood (1989)

"One-dimensional characters and 1st grade humor combine to make a self-important film that takes itself seriously. Horrible."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

-

Paris France (1993)

Barbara Shulgasser

Tomato

Party Girl (1995)

"When Party Girl isn't being silly, it tries to be endearing and socially redeeming, and to a good degree succeeds."

Barbara Shulgasser

Edvins Beitiks

Splat

The Patriot (2000)

"So the result -- in spite of the puffy white shirts, mussed ponytails, 13-starred American flags and nameless slaves -- feels more like 1996."

Wesley Morris

Tomato
3/4

Paulie (1998)

"Director John Roberts is abetted by some good acting, particularly from the always outstanding Rowlands."

Walter V. Addiego

-

Paulina (1998)

Walter V. Addiego

Tomato
3/4

Pauline and Paulette (2002)

"That director Lieven Debrauwer has presented, in only 78 minutes, such richly drawn characters at such a leisurely pace seems like a minor miracle."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Splat

Pay It Forward (2000)

"Instead of nuclear weapons or a deadly comet to blow us away, there's the world-alteringly scary possibility that [Leder] might be trying to kill us with a star-studded 'After School Special.'"

Wesley Morris

Splat

Payback (1999)

"Strictly a Mel Gibson vehicle, and one that doesn't really know what to do with the star's easygoing, audience-pleasing charm."

Walter V. Addiego

-

David Germain

-

The Peacemaker (1997)

Barbara Shulgasser

Tomato

Pearl Harbor (2001)

"An unabashedly old-fashioned and irony-free wartime romance infused with gee-whiz pyrotechnics and rah-rah patriotism."

Joe Leydon

-

Pecker (1998)

Edvins Beitiks

Splat
2/5

The Pelican Brief (1993)

"Bland, bloodless thriller."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3/4

The People Vs. Larry Flynt (1996)

"Boyish and straightforward, Norton's lawyer seems the last person who would be attracted to Flynt's dramatic style. But he's perfect because he's just like us: appalled, dazzled and utterly entertained."

Barbara Shulgasser

Tomato
3.5/4

Pepe Le Moko (1937)

"An irresistibly entertaining drama of dreamy, doom-laden romantic fatalism, a vividly atmospheric film noir years before noir was cool."

Joe Leydon

Wesley Morris

Splat

A Perfect Candidate (1996)

"The film dwells a bit too much on North's unpleasant campaign strategist, Mark Goodin."

Barbara Shulgasser

Tomato
3/4

A Perfect Getaway (2009)

"While hardly a film for the ages, it is exceptionally effective at what it sets out to achieve - namely, pumping up the tension, tossing us a few red herrings, then blindsiding us with the Big Surprise."

Rossiter Drake

Splat
2/4

A Perfect Murder (1998)

"Paltrow, too, is generally a good actress but there is a paint-by-numbers quality to her work here."

Barbara Shulgasser

-

Christy Lemire

Splat

The Perfect Storm (2000)

"The film's story trades that it in for a ride whose memory evaporates the minute you turn your back to the screen"

3/4

Personal Velocity (2002)

"Each individual, self-contained segment serves as testament to Miller's strengths as a storyteller."

Joe Leydon

Splat
C-

Persuasion (1995)

"Austen was always fun to read, and known for her candid insight into human affairs, but somehow Michell and Dear seem to have left these basic ingredients out."
