Jackass: The Movie (2002) |
"Strictly for shallow-end-of-the-gene-pool types who find professional wrestling and monster truck shows too sophisticated for their simple-minded tastes." |

The Jacket (2005) |
"Maybury, whose background in experimental film influences his style, keeps The Jacket grounded in the familiar while its sense of reality remains shrewdly vague." |

Jackie Brown (1997) |

Jason X (2002) |
"Whether Jason X is this bad on purpose is never clear. But one thing's for sure: It never comes close to being either funny or scary." |

Jawbreaker (1998) |
"Too dark to be funny and plagued by abyss-sized holes in the plot, slavish dialogue and sketch-quality acting, Jawbreaker is a 15 minute idea stretched into a feature film." |

Joe Dirt (2001) |
