Splat
2.5/4

Adam (2009)

"Adam doesn't go in for tidy resolutions, but the unintended moral is that gazing at the stars sure beats empathizing with tiresome people."

Peter Keough

Adventureland (2009)

Peter Keough

Tomato
3/4

Afghan Star (2009)

"Director Havana Marking's work is quite moving, particularly when it follows two of the three women who compete with nearly 2000 male applicants for the title."

Lance Gould

0.5/4

Aliens in the Attic (2009)

"Agonizingly lame."

Shaula Clark

Splat
0/4

All About Steve (2009)

"Movies don't get much worse."

Brett Michel

Tomato
3/4

American Casino (2009)

"Putting a face on the incomprehensible figures, the film takes a look at some of the victims, middle-class professionals who bought into the dream of home ownership and lost everything."

Peter Keough

Tomato
3/4

Amreeka (2009)

"The political ironies are obvious, and the American section is predictable, but Amreeka is winning all the same, because of the ensemble, and the humanism of its first-time filmmaker."

Gerald Peary

Tomato
3.5/4

An Education (2009)

"Mulligan might well remind you of Audrey Hepburn more than 50 years ago in Roman Holiday."

Brett Michel

Tomato
3/4

The Answer Man (2009)

"First-time director/screenwriter John Hindman seems aware of how predictable his premise could be, and despite a plot hole or two, he's put together a smart script with likable characters and lively dialogue that subverts the obvious clichés."

David Wildman

Tomato
3/4

Antichrist (2009)

"I’m torn between dismissing the film as gross-out juvenilia and regarding it as raw religious mythmaking. Either way, you won’t find a livelier time at the movies these days, if only because of the outraged groans and dumfounded gasps from the audience."

Peter Keough

Splat
2/4

Armored (2009)

"Simpson's dialogue flies like a flat-footed homage to Mamet or Tarantino."

Tom Meek

Tomato
2/4

Astro Boy (2009)

"Serious Tezuka fans will likely appreciate the sharp multi-dimensional presentation, even as they resent Osamu’s being pimped out for Obama."

Chris Faraone

Splat
2/4

Avatar (2009)

"Avatar might well be, as some have speculated, the future of movies -- in this case, the longest, loudest (James Horner with the 3-D equivalent of a soundtrack), most expensive ad for a video game ever made."

An American Carol (2008)

"Using sledgehammer gags in the service of a dissent-bashing tale, Zucker aims for the flag-waving brio of Warner Bros. cartoons during World War II, but he succeeds only in ruining Farley’s big break."

Alice's House (2007)

Alone in the Dark (2005)

"In this chintzy video-game blow-up, Christian Slater battles zombies and transmogrified beasties, revealing the horror of a once-promising career turned miserable."
