"The most ingenious and wicked political satire since Dr. Strangelove." |

Waiting for Guffman (1997) |
"It often equals and sometimes surpasses the deadpan humor of [Spinal Tap] (save the grinding guitars and leather pants, of course)." |

Waking Life (2001) |
"Like eavesdropping on a theoretical discourse between Kierkegaard & Kerouac, while standing in a modern art museum as the paintings come to life & melt into your visual cortex" |

Walking Tall (2004) |
"Walking Tall works only because The Rock can carry it on his absurdly broad shoulders. Whether or not that's good enough to spend money on is up to you." |

War of the Worlds (2005) |
"A problematic blockbuster with one essential saving grace: It's profoundly frightening in a way that few directors have the talent to capture." |

The Watcher (2000) |
"Keanu Reeves may very well be the least convincing, least frightening serial killer in the history of the psycho-thriller genre in The Watcher." |

Water Drops on Burning Rocks (2000) |
"The kind of exaggerated, elitist Euro-farce that cinema snobs enjoy just because they know the unwashed masses wouldn't." |

The Waterboy (1998) |
"This picture is almost entirely unintelligible three- or four-minute set pieces loosely held together by the football theme." |

The Way of the Gun (2000) |
"In The Usual Suspects, McQuarrie's manifold plot of collective collusion all came together in the shocker finale. But in here the complexities never congeal. They just serve as a backdrop for an exercise in vacant movie cool." |

The Wedding Singer (1998) |
"All the movie's tender moments ring false, especially since Sandler always looks like he's on the verge of cracking up, and ultimately the movie has less flavor than a supermarket wedding cake." |

What Time Is It There? (2002) |

What Women Want (2000) |
"When the movie gets heavy-handed about how [Gibson's] becoming a better person, all the comedy disappears and what's left is swimming in mawkishness and bogus sentimentality." |

What's Cooking? (2000) |
"It would take up too much space here to go through the huge cast trying to single out actors who deserve praise for the expressive details that bring such truth to the picture." |

What's The Worst That Could Happen? (2001) |
"Isn't a great comedy by any stretch of the imagination, and it keeps going long after it runs out of story. But it definitely has five bucks worth of matinee mirth for a lazy summer afternoon." |
