O (2001)

"Artful and emotionally compelling."

Observe and Report (2009)

"When Observe and Report is funny, it's often shockingly so. The characters can be nasty or self-absorbed, yet they still have a whiff of sweetness."

Ocean's Eleven (2001)

"Despite dashes of droll dialogue from screenwriter Ted Griffin, the remake aims for cool but instead gets chilly."

Ocean's Twelve (2004)

"The real-life camaraderie of Clooney, Pitt, Damon and the rest translates to the screen with charm and verve."

Old Dogs (2009)

"Though no animals were harmed in the making of Old Dogs, the lead actors were defanged. But like a pair of Labradors, they have a playful rapport."

Oliver and Company (1988)

"Despite three screenwriters and 13 names credited for the story, the script quickly sinks into a predictable 'girl-meets-pet, girl-loses-pet, girl-and -pet-reunite' sap-trap."

On the Line (2001)

"As teenybopper idol movies go, it's a few steps up from Spice World."

Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003)

"Depp tosses off nearly as many deadpan quips as he did in Pirates and steals the movie from everyone else in the cast, including a rugged Antonio Banderas, who is perfect for the role of a man haunted by grief."

The One (2001)

"Fans of The Matrix will hold their noses, as will those who put down sparring Arnold Schwarzeneggers in The 6th Day (now looking better)."

One Hour Photo (2002)

"One Hour Photo takes Robin Williams to darker and more complex places that we can't turn our eyes away from."

One Night Stand (1997)

"The acting hits all the right notes."

Only the Strong Survive (2003)

"Worth the time and money some of the summer's effects-driven spectacles probably won't be."

Open Water (2004)

"A tiny movie about ocean fears that will flush that overrated The Blair Witch Project 20,000 leagues under the sea."

Operation Dumbo Drop (1995)

"Photographed by the great Russell Boyd but looking drab and washed out for 108 minutes, the movie just gets by on heart and a conversation-stopping finale."

Orange County (2002)

"This one is geared more toward the volleyball players we see early on, leaping and spiking in the sand."

Original Sin (2001)

"The actors have so little chemistry delivering tired dialogue that the sluggish direction by Michael Cristofer ... is merely the final insult."

The Orphanage (2007)

"In a season filled with dark-themed films, it stands out as an elegantly mounted, surprisingly humane but terrifying horror thriller well worth seeing."

Oscar and Lucinda (1997)

"There's a lack of dramatic focus, and the leads fail to evince any particular chemistry."

Othello (1995)

"The movie is roughly on the same cinematic level as the Mel Gibson Hamlet, though it tends to get under your skin a little more once it gets rolling."

The Other Man (2009)

"The screen version of Bernhard Schlink's short story The Other Man does not deliver. The secret at the heart of the film, after all the fractured narrative convolutions, is anti-climactic, and the conclusion is strained and awkward."

Our Lady of the Assassins (2001)

"The characters never engage our interest, and the relentless violence grows monotonous."

Out of Sight (1998)

No article available.

Out to Sea (1997)

"Sporadically engaging."

Over Her Dead Body (2008)

"The tale [falls] short on imagination."

Owning Mahowny (2003)

"Made interesting by the performance of Philip Seymour Hoffman."
