Eagle Eye (2008) |
"[Hitchcock] for a modern age bloated by steroids, addled by action, and incapable of long-term attention." |
Ty Burr |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Eagle Vs. Shark (2007) |
"Floats by on a mood of concerned and puckish good will." |
Ty Burr |
Tomato 3/4 |
Earth (2009) |
"This Earth doesn't really have anything new to say, but it does present some newly entertaining ways of saying it." |
Janice Page |
Tomato 3/4 |
Earth Days (2009) |
"Earth Days captures those years when through sheer relentlessness, activists broke through to the public and put the mounting disaster at its doorstep." |
Wesley Morris |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Eastern Promises (2007) |
"In Eastern Promises, David Cronenberg's hellacious new Russian mob movie, Viggo Mortensen finally comes of age as an actor and a movie star." |
Ty Burr |
Splat 2/4 |
Easy Virtue (2009) |
"Those coming in cold may be forgiven for thinking they've wandered into Atonement remade as a farce." |
Ty Burr |
Splat 2/4 |
Eat This New York (2002) |
"So, how's the food? The camera never even goes up close. That's the kind of restaurant documentary this is." |
Janice Page |

Eating Out (2005) |
"Rarely more than sophomoric." |

Tomato 2.5/4 |
Eden (2006) |
"A love story of sorts, it's not a feel-good movie so much as feel-orgasmic-and-then-mildly-crestfallen movie. Like sex, like a good meal, like life." |
Ty Burr |
Splat 2/4 |
Eden (2008) |
"As drama, it's a chore." |
Wesley Morris |
Tomato 4/4 |
The Edge of Heaven (2008) |
"In a single two-hour film, Akin strikes the notes of emotional distress, geographical dissonance, generational discord, and nearly divine convergence that Kieslowski orchestrated over nearly six hours." |
Wesley Morris |
Splat 1.5/4 |
The Edge of Love (2009) |
"This may be Knightley's first truly mature performance. Too bad it arrives wrapped in doggerel." |
Ty Burr |
Tomato 3/4 |
Edmond (2006) |
"The last handful of scenes, featuring Bokeem Woodbine as an acquaintance of Edmond's, are worth the price of a ticket." |
Wesley Morris |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Edukators (2005) |
"There's an evenhanded humanism flowing through 'The Edukators that may strike doctrinaire viewers on either side of the divide as mushy, but it's tough enough for the rest of us to chew on for a long time." |
Ty Burr |
Tomato 3/4 |
Eight Below (2006) |
"It's the most touching love story about tragically separated sexy beasts since Cold Mountain." |
Wesley Morris |
Tomato 3/4 |
Eight Legged Freaks (2002) |
"As green-guts monster movies go, it's a beaut." |
Reilly Capps |
Splat 2/4 |
El Topo (1970) |
"This is gutbucket Luis Buñuel , surrealism on the cheap, and it hasn't dated well -- the blood is patently fake and the gunshots are dubbed." |
Ty Burr |
Tomato 3/4 |
Eldorado (2008) |
"Bob Hope and Bing Crosby they’re not. But director-actor Bouli Lanners and costar Fabrice Adde are on a comedy road to Eldorado, even if it takes place in a flat patch of mostly deserted Belgian landscape rather than some Hollywood Shangri-La." |
Thomasine Berg |

Tomato 3/4 |
Election (2005) |
"The film's violence erupts in rare, staccato bursts, all the more horrifying for coming out of nowhere." |
Ty Burr |
Splat 1/4 |
Elektra (2005) |
"[Garner] does all the stuff you can see her do on Wednesday nights -- namely, some of her own stunt work in outrageous costumes -- but without an ounce of zeal, charisma, or purpose." |
Wesley Morris |
Tomato 4/4 |
Elephant (2003) |
"An 86-minute cosmic provocation to rethink how we talk about the unspeakable, the scapegoats we look for, the effigies we burn." |
Wesley Morris |
Tomato 3/4 |
Elevator to the Gallows (1957) |
"The tasty 1957 noir thriller that introduced the world to French filmmaker Louis Malle, who at the time was a 24-year-old assistant director for Jacques Cousteau." |
Wesley Morris |
Tomato 3/4 |
Elf (2003) |
"The movie sets Ferrell's assaultive and juvenile physical comedy in a less-combative playground, and the result might leave the Ferrell-intolerant exiting the theater on a high." |
Wesley Morris |
Splat 2.5/4 |
Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007) |
"Where's the political sophistication that made the first movie slightly more interesting? That was a decent game of chess. The Golden Age is checkers." |
Wesley Morris |
Splat 2/4 |
Elizabethtown (2005) |
"The movie feels long and strangely derivative of [Crowe's] other, better work." |
Wesley Morris |
Splat 1.5/4 |
Ella Enchanted (2004) |
"An overcalculated fusion of Shrek and The Princess Bride with all the smarts replaced by smartass." |
Ty Burr |
Splat 2.5/4 |
Ellie Parker (2005) |
"Eventually the energy of the original short runs out and the movie coasts on fumes, but it remains surprisingly enjoyable for all that." |
Ty Burr |
Tomato 3/4 |
Elling (2002) |
"Touches smartly and wistfully on a number of themes, not least the notion that the marginal members of society ... might benefit from a helping hand and a friendly kick in the pants." |
Ty Burr |
Splat 1.5/4 |
Elvira's Haunted Hills (2002) |
"A sloppy slapstick throwback to long gone bottom-of-the-bill fare like The Ghost and Mr. Chicken." |
Ty Burr |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Emmanuel's Gift (2005) |
"Directed in the breathless inspirational tones of an infomercial, the film's an acceptable document of a thoroughly remarkable individual." |
Ty Burr |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Empathy (2004) |
"A revealing and dryly humorous film about voyeurism and the patient-doctor relationship." |
Janice Page |
Splat 2.5/4 |
The Emperor's Club (2002) |
"Only two-fifths of a satisfying movie experience." |
Ty Burr |

The Emperor's New Clothes (2002) |
"It never rises to its clever what-if concept." |
Lynda Gorov |
Tomato |
The Emperor's New Groove (2000) |
"A near-perfect mix of fresh characters, well-cast voices, superb visuals, and a fast-paced, fantasy-adventure plot." |
Loren King |
Splat 2/4 |
Empire (2002) |
"[Reyes] pushes his shopping cart through the ghetto-drug-flick warehouse, where all the merchandise has been picked over like a Filene's sale rack on the day after Thanksgiving." |
Wesley Morris |
Splat 1.5/4 |
Employee of the Month (2006) |
"[Cook's] enthusiasm for speeding through a bulk-item megastore in a race to please his corporate masters might endear him, anecdotally, to Hollywood producers and executives, but it's sad and never very funny." |
Wesley Morris |
Tomato 3/4 |
Enchanted (2007) |
"The sight of Adams gliding and beaming and chirping in this movie is just about the happiest time I've had watching an actor do anything all year." |
Wesley Morris |

End of Days (1999) |
"Think of End of Days as Hollywood's own Y2K bug." |

End of the Century: The Story of the Ramones (2004) |
"An essential addition to the growing (and inherently ironic) field of Punkology." |
Ty Burr |
Splat 2/4 |
The End of the Line (2009) |
"This movie wants to cover every base without thinking very deeply about them. So while a lot of ground is covered in 80 brisk minutes, the information presented is only abstractly useful." |
Wesley Morris |
Splat 2/4 |
End of the Spear (2006) |
"Not an emotional powerhouse so much as a dutiful public service announcement." |
Wesley Morris |
Tomato 4/4 |
The Endurance: Shackleton's Legendary Antarctic Expedition (2001) |
"The story to unfold elegantly, without embellishment, and it is more powerful for that restraint." |
Loren King |
Splat 2/4 |
Enduring Love (2004) |
"It walks the line between romantic piety and utter tastelessness, opting to be a cheap potboiler only after it's run out of ways to seem profound." |
Wesley Morris |
Splat 2.5/4 |
Enigma (2002) |
"How did a movie with so many gifted people in front of and behind the camera wind up being such a drag?" |
Renee Graham |
Splat 1.5/4 |
Enough (2002) |
"Shamelessly exploits the horror of domestic violence for melodramatic, cheap thrills." |
Renee Graham |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room (2005) |
"Gibney has been able to get his hands on the right materials, and he assembles the right talking heads to string the story together." |
