E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (1982) |
"The film remains the kind of unabashed delight that can make even the most cynical filmgoer feel like a kid wrapped up in the fantasy of it all." |

Eddie (1996) |
"Eddie certainly would have been a mess without Goldberg to add an unexpected feminine view. It probably would have been a failure, too because she's the only thing drawing women to this sports picture." |

Eight Legged Freaks (2002) |
"It's not a great monster movie. But if you've paid a matinee price and bought a big tub of popcorn, there's guilty fun to be had here. Chomp chomp!" |

Elektra (2005) |
"Scantily clad action heroine with a sexy-tough pout? Check. Supernatural bad-guy gang of tattooed, Goth-punk clowns? Check.... A half-hearted, prefabricated effort." |

Elephant (2003) |
"...has so little to say about (school shootings) and the culture which produces them that it becomes paradoxically tedious once the killing starts." |

Elevator to the Gallows (1957) |
"In backwards-thinking terms, Malle was the Tarantino of his day, giving French cinema a creative, influential shot in the arm that opened new horizons in directorial thinking." |

Elf (2003) |
"People come up to me and say, "I've seen 'A Night at the Roxbury' like 20 times!" And I'm like, "Really? I'm so sorry."" |

Tomato 2.5/4 |
Elf (2003) |
"Buddy the elf's inherent kindheartedness and selfless good intentions are the saving-grace elements that Ferrell's performances have always been missing." |

Ella Enchanted (2004) |
"Has plenty of charm (but) had O'Haver been smarter about its self-awareness and more consistent with its cleverness, the movie might have been able to stand the test of time." |

Tomato 3/4 |
Emma (1996) |
"Emma is a faithful adaptation of Austen's most cherished novel and unlike Clueless...the audience has more than a passing interest in the characters here. It has an emotional stake in the outcome." |

The Emperor's Club (2002) |
"A movie that seems motivated more by a desire to match mortarboards with Dead Poets Society and Good Will Hunting than by its own story." |

The Emperor's New Clothes (2002) |
"Driven by a fantastic dual performance from Ian Holm...the film is funny, insightfully human and a delightful lark for history buffs." |

"It's sprightly, clever and fun, fun, fun." |

Empire (2002) |
"...familiar and predictable, and 4/5ths of it might as well have come from a Xerox machine rather than (writer-director) Franc. Reyes' word processor." |

Enemy of the State (1998) |
"If only Bruckheimer movies weren't so loaded with recycled, paint-by-numbers story elements and catch phrase dialogue. If only the characters exercised common sense." |

Tomato 3/4 |
The English Patient (1996) |
"It isn't the best picture of the year, it isn't film-making as it is supposed to be. But it is heart-breakingly poetic, it is beautifully directed and acted, and it is a brilliant film that is only slightly derailed by its own breadth and scope." |
