Tomato 2.5/4 |
Ta Ra Rum Pum (2007) |
"The "cute" kids are insufferable, but leads Ali Khan and Mukerji radiate the unabashed star quality that's all but gone from American movies -- poverty and desperation haven't looked so glamorous since the glory days of Joan Crawford." |
Maitland McDonagh |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Tabu (1931) |
"Magnificent, filled with shimmering, luminescent images that evoke both paradise and paradise lost." |
|
Tomato 2.5/5 |
Tadpole (2002) |
"This breezy romantic trifle isn't nearly as clever as it imagines itself to be, but it's smart enough not to take itself too seriously." |
Ken Fox |
Tomato 3/5 |
Tae Guk Gi: The Brotherhood of War (2004) |
"The battle scenes are terrifically filmed, often reaching Private Ryan's level of intensity, and despite your better judgment, you do get caught up in the melodrama." |
Ethan Alter |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Tailor of Panama (2001) |
"A cut above the preposterous action spectacles that now pass for espionage films..." |
Maitland McDonagh |
Tomato 3/4 |
Take (2008) |
"A frantic mother and a desperate criminal cross paths with devastating results in first-time writer and director Charles Oliver's emotionally charged drama." |
Maitland McDonagh |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Take Care of My Cat (2001) |
"Although laced with humor and a few fanciful touches, the film is a refreshingly serious look at young women." |
Ken Fox |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Take My Eyes (2006) |
"Harrowing, psychologically astute drama about domestic abuse." |
Ken Fox |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Take Out (2008) |
"A rare kind of film." |
Ken Fox |
Tomato 3/4 |
Take the Lead (2006) |
"A showcase for triumph-of-the-underdog sports-movie cliches and coming-of-age-through-adversity moral lessons. But thanks to Banderas' understated sophistication and the efforts of the attractive young cast, it's still a charmer." |
Maitland McDonagh |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Taking Lives (2004) |
"This multiple-twist thriller gets off to a fine, creepy start but eventually becomes too preposterous for its own good." |
Maitland McDonagh |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009) |
"Surprisingly, in a summer full of action-packed blockbusters, this cracking remake may be the movie to beat for sheer popcorn-chomping thrills." |
Jason Buchanan |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
The Taking of Pelham One Two Three (1974) |
"Exciting, suspenseful drama." |
|
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Taking Off (1971) |
"At the time of its release, critics welcomed the Czech-born Forman's skewed perspective on a transitional period of American culture, but today the film, like so much else from the late 60s and early 70s, can best be appreciated as a historical curio." |
|
Tomato 2.5/5 |
Taking Sides (2003) |
"It's a thought-provoking film." |

A Tale of Two Pizzas (2003) |
"There is some trite Italian-American stereotypes on display, and the interstitial animated sequences have nothing to do with the plot and drag down this otherwise sprightly comedy." |
Ken Fox |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
A Tale Of Two Sisters (2003) |
"Like a fairy tale set in a haunted house, this terrifying psychological horror yarn from Korea preys upon deep-rooted fears of adolescence, insanity and evil stepparents while scaring the bejabbers out of us." |
Ken Fox |
Splat 2.5/5 |
The Talent Given Us (2004) |
"It would all amount to little more than an uncomfortable hour and a half of dirty laundry if it weren't for the natural charm of Allen and Judy Wagner, nonactors who nevertheless project an unexpected amount of charisma." |
Ken Fox |
Tomato 9/10 |
The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) |
"This coolly beautiful film is both a superior thriller and an engrossing study of a sociopath's progress." |
Maitland McDonagh |
Splat 1/4 |
Tales from the Crypt - Bordello of Blood (1996) |
"This is a travesty." |
|
Tomato 3/4 |
Tales from the Crypt - Demon Knight (1995) |
"Good-humored gore, ably directed by Ernest Dickerson." |

Tomato 4/4 |
The Talk of the Town (1942) |
"The contrivance of plot is compensated by one of the most genial casts in history." |
|
Tomato 4/5 |
Talk to Her (2002) |
"This ode to the peculiar strength and flexibility of love, romantic and platonic, is simultaneously perverse, overwrought, deeply creepy and truly moving." |
Maitland McDonagh |
Tomato 3/4 |
Talk to Me (2007) |
"Cheadle and Ejiofor are riveting together; they have the kind of apparently effortless chemistry that makes every scene they share a delight." |
Maitland McDonagh |

A Talking Picture (2003) |
"This intermittently interesting symbolic tour through European history once again places ideas over aesthetics and technique." |
Ken Fox |
Tomato 3/4 |
Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006) |
"Gentlemen and ladies, start your engines -- really. Will Ferrell's NASCAR comedy is worth getting revved up over, though non-Ferrell fans will be unimpressed no matter how many times he strips to his skivvies." |
Angel Cohn |
Splat 2/4 |
Tamara (2006) |
"Repetitive and uninspired, it panders to the lowest expectations of horror buffs and squanders the efforts of a competent cast." |
Maitland McDonagh |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
The Taming of the Shrew (1967) |
"Purists will doubtless be upset by this flick, but the bawdy humor is engaging, the photography and musical score work just fine, and the most famous married couple in the world at that time are really having a ball here." |
|
Tomato 3/4 |
Tango & Cash (1989) |
"A very smart 'dumb' movie." |
|
Splat 2/4 |
Tank Girl (1995) |
"How well you'll tolerate this utterly unhinged quasi-feminist comic book fantasy depends on your Lori Petty threshold." |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
Tape (2001) |
"A stagy, three-person psychodrama about guilt, memory and manipulation, driven by strong performances." |
Maitland McDonagh |
Tomato 3/4 |
Tapeheads (1989) |
"A wacky, high-energy satire of the music business." |
|
Tomato 4.5/5 |
Targets (1968) |
"An unconventional horror picture that draws a comparison between the real-life horror of the 1966 Charles Whitman murder spree and the fictional horrors of movie legend Boris Karloff." |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
Tarnation (2004) |
"A bold, painful memoir located in an innovative middleground between conventional documentary and homemade home-movie collage." |
Ken Fox |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Tarzan (1999) |
"It's hard not to read the film in racial terms and the result is a confused mess of mixed signals that substitutes a brutal climax for any kind of satisfactory resolution." |
Ken Fox |
Splat 0/4 |
Tarzan, the Ape Man (1981) |
"Painfully dull." |
|
Tomato 3/4 |
Tashan (2008) |
"A nutty, ridiculously entertaining neo-noir pastiche with lavish musical numbers." |
Maitland McDonagh |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
A Taste of Honey (1961) |
"A taste of the British "Kitchen Sink" school at its best." |
|
Tomato 8/10 |
The Taste of Others (2001) |
"A huge hit in France, this ensemble drama revolves around two very different social groups whose encounters with each other change several lives in surprising ways." |
Maitland McDonagh |
Tomato 2.5/5 |
Tattoo (2002) |
"An assured piece of genre filmmaking that delivers the goods so stylishly it hardly matters that they aren't fresh." |
Maitland McDonagh |
Splat 2/5 |
Tattoo Bar (2002) |
"Exotic locales, an attractive cast and lush photography can't disguise the fact that Spanish writer-director Jo Sol's debut feature is little more than a tediously overblown soap opera." |
Ken Fox |
Splat 1.5/5 |
Taxi (2004) |
"Queen Latifah is a natural-born charmer, but there's only so much she can do when paired with a costar so irritating it's hard not to squirm when he's on the screen." |
Maitland McDonagh |
Tomato 5/5 |
Taxi Driver (1976) |
"An undeniably brilliant, nightmarish portrait of one man's personal hell." |
|
Tomato 3/4 |
Tazza: The High Rollers (2006) |
"The twists and turns continue until the very end of Choi's mesmerizing, high-energy romp, whose 139 minutes zip by like a round of speed poker." |
Maitland McDonagh |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Teacher's Pet (2004) |
"Should have been pared down into an episode of the series." |
Angel Cohn |

Teaching Mrs. Tingle (1999) |
"The tone is off, and beyond the set-up, it's woefully underdeveloped!" |
