Factory Girl (2007)

"Miller does good work when the script gives her anything to work with."

Faithless (2001)

"Endre is superb in the role Ullmann would have played 20 years ago."

The Family Man (2000)

"A holiday fable that's not destined for immortality but goes down more easily than most of the pap Hollywood tries to feed us every Christmas."

Far From Heaven (2002)

"A handsome tribute to an era as quaintly distant as tail-fin Chevrolets and A-bomb scares."

Fat Albert (2004)

"An inoffensive void through which you sail without effort or interest."

Feast of Love (2007)

"Director Robert Benton and writer Allison Burnett don't give us time to breathe. Characters meet, fall in love and set out on condensed journeys of self-discovery at top speed, as if their lives consisted entirely of momentous events."

Fight Club (1999)

"Visually surrealistic, acted with integrity."

The Fighting Temptations (2003)

"The Fighting Temptations soars toward heaven like an eagle whenever folks cut loose with a gospel song. When they open their mouths to speak painfully trite dialogue, the movie thuds to Earth like a ruptured duck."

Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within (2001)

"The film comes from a video game, and no effort was made to develop the main ideas. This may not be a bother when you're jabbing buttons or yanking joysticks, but it's a dead loss onscreen."

Finding Forrester (2000)

"It takes us inside the head of a young man whose black friends are suspicious of anyone who studies too hard and whose white colleagues wonder if he can study hard enough. Those two voyages make it worthwhile."

Finding Neverland (2004)

"[Depp] gives the most controlled, least mannered performance of his career, staying sweet and rueful while suggesting unseen emotional depths."

First Daughter (2004)

"Has any movie this millennium had less reason to exist than First Daughter?"

Flawless (2007)

"Banal or bogus."

Flushed Away (2006)

"...Brilliantly designed, frantically paced, sadly soulless and immediately forgettable."

Fool's Gold (2008)

"Of course it's bad. It was always going to be. But it's worse than necessary."

Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008)

"Forgetting Sarah Marshall, shorter than Knocked Up and more focused than Superbad, tops all other Apatow productions so far."

Formula 51 (2002)

"In exactly 89 minutes, most of which passed as slowly as if I'd been sitting naked on an igloo, Formula 51 sank from quirky to jerky to utter turkey."

Four Brothers (2005)

"Four Brothers immediately joins the Good Idea, Bad Execution club."

The Four Feathers (2002)

"Kapur's contradictory feelings about his material result in a movie that works against itself."

Freaky Friday (2003)

"Wryly funny enough for adults and zany enough for little kids."

Freedom Writers (2007)

"The students are uniformly affecting: R&B singer Mario, Jason Finn and April Hernandez stand out as teens about to fall permanently into thug life."

Frequency (2000)

"Hoblit's visual sense never deserts him."

Friday Night Lights (2004)

"A passably made, grittily acted slice of life in Texas that veers not an inch from the norm for this sort of picture."

From Hell (2001)

"Depp gives yet another introspective, slightly mopey performance."

Frozen River (2008)

"Hunt has keenly observed the details of impoverished rural life."
