I Am Legend (2007) |
"I liked it better when it was called 28 Days Later." |
Duane Dudek |
Splat |
I Am Sam (2002) |
"Each heart-tuggingly placed Beatles tune and life-affirming moment of triumph pats us on the back just for sitting through such a socially responsible film." |
Kevin John Bozelka |
Tomato 3/4 |
I Capture the Castle (2003) |
"A richly colored, intricately textured film that revels in slow but mesmerizing character development." |
Sue Pierman |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
I Don't Want To Sleep Alone (2007) |
"A subtle, slow-moving presentation of hope and responsibility that will test your patience if you are not a fan of elliptical, dreamlike narratives like those in Tsai's films." |
Michele Kenner |
Splat |
I Dreamed of Africa (2000) |
"With such good raw material, you have to wonder why the screenplay, direction and dialogue are so flat." |
Elfrieda Abbe |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
I for India (2007) |
"It's a tale that many immigrant families around the world could tell, but probably without as much documentation." |
Michele Kenner |
Splat 2/4 |
I Heart Huckabees (2004) |
"Russell flings ideas, but only sprinkles plot, at the question, and most of them stubbornly refuse to stick." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
I Love You, Beth Cooper (2009) |
"Director Chris Columbus returns to his comic roots with a teen romp reminiscent of the '80s." |
Sue Pierman |
Splat 2.5/4 |
I Love You, Man (2009) |
"The crude humor about masturbation, dog feces and projectile vomiting is disappointingly familiar, as are the character archetypes." |
Duane Dudek |
Splat 2/4 |
I Now Pronounce You Chuck And Larry (2007) |
"I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry stumbles around like a Cher impersonator missing one red sequined pump." |
Sue Pierman |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
I Served the King of England (2008) |
"I Served the King of England might not suit Charlie Chaplin, were he alive today. But Chaplin’s visual gusto complements this precisely timed and profoundly reverent ode to silent cinema." |
Graham Killeen |
Splat 2/4 |
I Spy (2002) |
"With none of the series' famous sophistication and wit, all audiences will get from this film is nostalgia for TV's good old days." |
Jackie Loohauis |
Splat 2/4 |
I Think I Love My Wife (2007) |
"Despite a few snappy one-liners, the film and its humor are episodic and unfocused." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato |
I'll Be Home For Christmas (1998) |
"Like a big box of holiday chocolates: There's a lot of variety, and though the quality is a bit uneven, there's enough tasty tidbits to satisfy most everyone in the family." |
Sue Pierman |
Splat 2.5/4 |
I'll Sleep When I'm Dead (2004) |
"While Croupier was taut and focused, I'll Sleep When I'm Dead, though atmospheric, is vague and meandering." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
I'm Going Home (2002) |
"De Oliveira creates an emotionally rich, poetically plump and visually fulsome, but never showy, film whose bittersweet themes are reinforced and brilliantly personified by Michel Piccoli." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
I'm Not Scared (2004) |
"This spare and haunting Italian thriller is about innocence lost, and how a small world can be made smaller when you're alone in it." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
I'm Not There (2007) |
"A dreamlike and poetically opaque mosaic that, in the end, is a lot like Dylan's music itself, in that it invites analysis but stubbornly defies interpretation." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato 3/4 |
I've Loved You So Long (2008) |
" This is a drama about the role of forgiveness in daily life, made compelling by an actress with a flair for the ordinary." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
I, Robot (2004) |
"Engagingly silly film." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato 3/4 |
Ice Age (2002) |
"Think about the last time cartoon characters could bring you to tears as well as laughter, and you'll realize that this movie is as rare as the creatures that people it." |
Sue Pierman |
Splat 2/4 |
Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs (2009) |
"Countless escapades through logs, massive dino-rib-cages, and cracks in the frozen tundra never quite justify the movie's use of 3-D, however. The children sitting next to me in the theater jettisoned their cumbersome glasses right away." |
Graham Killeen |
Tomato 3/4 |
Ice Age: The Meltdown (2006) |
"Ice Age: The Meltdown is a rarity, like the last of the woolly mammoths: a sequel that's as delightful as the original." |
Sue Pierman |
Splat 2/4 |
The Ice Harvest (2005) |
"... seems slight and underdeveloped." |
Michele Kenner |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Ice Princess (2005) |
"Manages to execute surprisingly well." |
Sue Pierman |
Tomato 3/4 |
Identity (2003) |
"It takes rare wit, guts and humor to try this kind of thing in an A-list film. Identity proves it has enough individuality to succeed." |
Jackie Loohauis |
Splat |
Idle Hands (1999) |
"This film smacks of poor judgment and bad taste, particularly in the wake of the Littleton, Colo., killings." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Idlewild (2006) |
"Idlewild is a long, lively ride down a bumpy road that has terrific scenery along the way. It has flashes of brilliance and stretches of drudgery." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Illusionist (2006) |
"It is a treat watching Norton and Giamatti play off each other." |
Paul Doro |
Splat 2/4 |
Imaginary Heroes (2004) |
"Harris cannot justify this family of misfits contrived for the screen." |
Michele Kenner |
Splat 2/4 |
Imagine Me & You (2006) |
"The accents are pleasing to the ears, but other than that it is trite and shameless, willing to do anything to please." |
Paul Doro |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Imagine That (2009) |
"Murphy's controlled mania and the chemistry he has with Yara Shahidi, who plays his daughter, make this well-worn narrative path seem fresher than it is." |

IMAX - Pulse: A STOMP Odyssey (2006) |
"Most of the performers are amateurs. They practice their art for the love of it, and it's easy to love them for it." |
Tom Strini |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Importance of Being Earnest (2002) |
"Oscar Wilde's 1895 comedy remains one of his most enduring, and Miramax's new release can't match the impact or import of the original. But while this film may be a lesser light, it's still worth a visit to the manor house." |
Jackie Loohauis |
Tomato 3/4 |
In America (2003) |
"The American family is made up of many, many such stories." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato |
In Bruges (2008) |
"The performances, by both Farrell and Brendan Gleeson, have an unpredictable, appealing, off-kilter, bull-in-a-china-shop quality that transcends the material's innate familiarity." |
Duane Dudek |
Splat |
In Dreams (1998) |
"Trying to do too much too soon!" |
Jackie Loohauis |
Tomato 3/4 |
In Good Company (2004) |
"In Good Company is a wonderfully spun tale of two men and the colliding career tracks they ride." |
Sue Pierman |
Tomato 3/4 |
In Her Shoes (2005) |
"A tale of how family explains everything about who we are and how we got that way." |
Duane Dudek |
Splat 1.5/4 |
In July (2000) |
"We've been to this place many times before, folks: An overly fastidious, brainy male gets led through a series of zany adventures by a free-spirited female, and the moral of the story is to not live life so cautiously." |
Kevin John Bozelka |
Splat 2/4 |
In My Country (2005) |
"The gripping material is given short thrift in favor of routine melodrama and a love story that has nearly nothing to do with what should be the crux of the story." |
Paul Doro |
Tomato |
In the Bedroom (2001) |
"Everything about the film reflects Field's passion and craftsmanship." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato 3/4 |
In the Cut (2003) |
"Life'll kill ya, lamented the late Warren Zevon. Love'll kill ya, amends Campion in a film which shows that what long has been good for the goose can cut both ways." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato 3/4 |
In the Land of Women (2007) |
"A solid effort with an insightful script and strong performances." |
Mack Bates |
Tomato 3/4 |
In the Loop (2009) |
"In the Loop is nonstop, go-go-go verbal action that makes Wag the Dog seem like a mind-numbing cricket match." |
Michele Kenner |
Tomato 3/4 |
In the Realms of the Unreal (2004) |
"A biographical portrait of a man who spent his life muttering to himself in a language only he could understand." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato 4/4 |
In the Shadow of the Moon (2007) |
"A fascinating, funny and moving documentary -- possibly the best screen exploration ever of the Apollo program." |
Meg Jones |
Splat 2.5/4 |
In the Valley of Elah (2007) |
"You can literally read on Jones' face. All of which makes certain genre devices intrinsic to the murder mystery aspect of the story seem trivial and anticlimactic by comparison." |
Duane Dudek |
Tomato 4/4 |
In This World (2003) |
"It's a brave new world, and Michael Winterbottom's brave new film is like a postcard from the heart of it." |
Duane Dudek |
