Splat 2.5/5 |
G-Force (2009) |
"The single most terrifying moment is hearing the world will be destroyed in 30 minutes. Therein lies the possibility that the film will drag on for another half hour." |
Nancy Churnin |
Splat |
Galaxy Quest (1999) |
"Each actor plays an actor playing the sci-fi characters. It's a bit difficult to keep track of who's who, and ultimately the characters are so underdeveloped it's even more difficult to care." |
Jay Webb |
Tomato B+ |
The Game of Their Lives (2005) |
"History loves underdogs. And so do director David Anspaugh and writer Angelo Pizzo." |
Nancy Churnin |
Splat F |
Games People Play: New York (2004) |
"This is the kind of faux-dignified freak show that was once the stuff of parody and satire. Now it pats itself on the back for being 'risqué' and treats itself seriously." |
Chris Vognar |
Tomato A- |
Gangs of New York (2002) |
"The story's scope and pageantry are mesmerizing, and Mr. Day-Lewis roars with leonine power." |
Philip Wuntch |
Tomato B |
Gangster No. 1 (2002) |
"Director Paul McGuigan and cast infuse the proceedings with a strong dose of psychotic gusto and visual flare." |
Chris Vognar |
Splat C+ |
Garcon Stupide (2006) |
"Understanding the ins and outs of a young, detached psyche requires careful cinematic dialogue and introspection, qualities Mr. Baier can't muster in his feature debut." |
Mario Tarradell |
Tomato B+ |
Garden State (2004) |
"A little gem of a film full of believably offbeat characters and eclectic mood music." |
Ed Bark |
Splat D |
Garfield the Movie (2004) |
"The poorly penned plot is derivative even by Hollywood standards." |
Philip Wuntch |
Tomato B |
Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties (2006) |
"While there are few surprises, the sweet sensibility dashed with Mr. Murray's acerbic delivery of Garfield makes an appealing mix." |
Nancy Churnin |
Splat C- |
Garmento (2003) |
"As a satire, Garmento is toothless. As a comedy, it's funny only in spurts." |
Gary Dowell |
Tomato |
The General's Daughter (1999) |
"A good generic movie, with a well-crafted screenplay, solid direction and engaging performances from leads John Travolta and Madeleine Stowe." |
Philip Wuntch |
Splat C- |
The Genius Club (2006) |
"The Genius Club is a stultifying, static movie about a group of people trapped in a dingy boardroom yelling at one another and their tormentor." |
Tom Maurstad |
Tomato B+ |
George A. Romero's Land of the Dead (2005) |
"With all due respect to 28 Days Later and Shaun of the Dead, nobody goes zombie quite like George A. Romero." |
Chris Vognar |
Tomato B |
Gerry (2003) |
"On the surface it may seem as barren as its desert, but underneath is a beautiful and surreal meditation." |
Gary Dowell |
Tomato |
Get Carter (2000) |
"Stylishly directed by Stephen Kay, the new Carter isn't half as bad as it could have been." |
Chris Vognar |
Tomato |
Get Over It (2001) |
"It's predictable but charming." |
Gary Dowell |
Tomato B |
Get Rich or Die Tryin' (2005) |
"Mr. Sheridan understands the sudden, spasmodic nature of turf battles. Get Rich plays like a genre movie with a particularly skilled hand at the helm." |
Chris Vognar |
Tomato B- |
Get Smart (2008) |
"Instead of the show's wacky, slapstick tone, Get Smart presents itself as an action-filled spy movie that just happens to be really funny. And for the most part, it succeeds." |
Tom Maurstad |
Tomato |
Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai (1999) |
"Ghost Dog does right by fans of gangsters, hip-hop and samurais." |
Chris Vognar |
Splat C- |
Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence (2004) |
"A rehash that takes a timely theme, mankind's obsession with technology, and bloats it to the point of incomprehension, cramming meaning into dialogue that has none." |
Gary Dowell |
Tomato B- |
Ghost Rider (2007) |
"Neither contemptuous of its audience nor merely stupid, Ghost Rider's nonsensical histrionics are an almost perfect mirror of its comic-book source." |
Matt Weitz |
Splat C |
Ghost Ship (2002) |
"A spooky yarn of demonic doings on the high seas that works better the less the brain is engaged." |
Matt Weitz |
Tomato B+ |
Ghost Town (2008) |
"As Ghost Town reminds us, there's nothing wrong with formula filmmaking – as long as it's done with smarts and style. Indeed, formulaic doesn't have to be shorthand for lazy, obvious and uninspired." |
Tom Maurstad |
Tomato |
Ghost World (2001) |
"Riveting, hilarious and poignant." |
Philip Wuntch |
Tomato B+ |
Ghosts of the Abyss (2003) |
"It explores the remains of the marathon ship with such intimacy that you expect all the characters in [Titanic's] ethereal final scene to suddenly appear and offer handshakes." |
Philip Wuntch |
Splat |
The Gift (2001) |
"You can't escape the feeling that everyone involved deserved something better." |
Philip Wuntch |
Splat C- |
Gigantic (2008) |
"Aselton's reason for making this movie is easy to discern -- he wants to be a filmmaker. But coming up with a reason for watching this movie is more of a challenge." |
Tom Maurstad |
Splat D |
Gigli (2003) |
"Once you get past the staggering question of who gave this thing the green light, Gigli actually turns into a uniquely bad movie that yields real (albeit unintentional) laughter." |

Gimme Shelter (1970) |
"This is a seminal rock doc, and the actual music is only a small part of the magic." |
Chris Vognar |
Tomato |
The Girl (2001) |
"Celebrates the emotional and physical liberation that comes with lovemaking, while also recognizing that such exhilaration sometimes carries a price." |
Philip Wuntch |
Tomato B+ |
The Girl from Paris (2002) |
"Offers proof that silences can speak volumes." |
Philip Wuntch |
Splat C |
The Girl Next Door (2004) |
"The plot is carelessly cobbled from dozens of previous teen flicks, with needless episodes added as space fillers." |
Philip Wuntch |
Tomato A- |
Girl with a Pearl Earring (2003) |
"Like the painting itself and the young woman who inspired it, Girl With a Pearl Earring is a quiet jewel." |
Philip Wuntch |
Tomato |
Girl, Interrupted (1999) |
"As we take our mental health for granted, Girl, Interrupted does justice to those who ultimately can't." |
Chris Vognar |
Tomato |
Girlfight (2000) |
"An intelligent, gutsy debut combo from Ms. Kusama and Ms. Rodriguez." |
Chris Vognar |
Tomato A- |
Girls Can't Swim (2002) |
"Evokes the frustration, the awkwardness and the euphoria of growing up, without relying on the usual tropes." |
Rasmi Simhan |
Splat C- |
Girls Will Be Girls (2003) |
"Girls Will Be Girls is gross-out camp, much like the movies of John Waters." |
Charles Ealy |
Tomato |
Gladiator (2000) |
"Gladiator is what championship is all about. Thrilling and exciting, it embraces technical standards of filmmaking rarely anticipated in earlier epics." |
Philip Wuntch |
Tomato |
The Glass House (2001) |
"A workmanlike thriller that works." |
Philip Wuntch |
Tomato A- |
The Gleaners and I (2001) |
"The Gleaners and I is a film well worth finding." |
Chris Vognar |
Splat |
Glitter (2001) |
"Ms. Carey sure can sing but she sure can't act." |
Tom Maurstad |
Tomato B+ |
Gloomy Sunday (2003) |
"It's a stirring and provocative affirmation of the power and resilience of love." |
Philip Wuntch |
Splat C+ |
Glory Road (2006) |
"A well-meaning movie that slides downhill like a runaway ball of cheese." |
Chris Vognar |
Tomato B |
Go For Zucker (2004) |
"Go for Zucker! cleaned up at this year's German film awards. But why should an American moviegoer see it? If you're looking for a reason, here's one: It might be the first funny German movie you've ever seen." |

God Is Great, I'm Not (2002) |
"Although God Is Great addresses interesting matters of identity and heritage, it's hard to shake the feeling that it was intended to be a different kind of film." |
Matt Weitz |
Tomato C+ |
Gods and Generals (2003) |
"Despite boring patches, this $56 million epic is a noble effort." |
