Tomato 4/5 |
Cabin Boy (1993) |
"Extremely weird, and certainly not for everyone. Yet very, very brilliant in its own strange way." |
|
Cabin Fever (2003) |
"The only thing scary about Cabin Fever is that well-connected hacks get deals." |
||
Caché (2005) |
"Draws on very contemporary fears without ever mentioning them." |
||
Tomato 3/5 |
Caligula (1979) |
"Kinda dumb and tacky, but at least it's a real movie." |
|
Tomato 4/5 |
Cannibal! The Musical (1996) |
"Best enjoyed on DVD, as the alcohol-fueled commentary track might just be the best one ever recorded." |
|
Tomato 4/5 |
The Canterbury Tales (1971) |
"Robust and smart, much like its more expansive source material." |
|
Splat |
Captain Corelli's Mandolin (2001) |
"...a handful of clichés." |
|
Tomato |
"This may not seem to be the stuff of comedy, but a comedy it is, and a compelling one too, laden with hot sex and standout performances," |

Tomato 3/5 |
Casablanca (1942) |

Tomato 4/5 |
Casino (1995) |

Tomato |
Cast Away (2000) |
"For a critic quite prepared to dismiss the movie as Robinson Blew So, this comes as the season's most delightful surprise." |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
Casualties of War (1989) |
"Michael J. Fox is a little hard to buy in this one." |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
Cat's Eye (1985) |
"Amusing adaptation of a few Stephen King short stories -- if only smokers were treated in real life as they are in this film!" |
|
Tomato |
The Cat's Meow (2002) |
"This may not be great moviemaking ... but it's vastly enjoyable in a low-down, scandal-mongering way." |
|
Catch That Kid (2004) |
|||
Tomato 4/5 |
Catch-22 (1970) |
"Starts out pretty funny, gets incredibly weird by the end." |
|
Splat |
Cats & Dogs (2001) |
"Once you've seen the gimmick and gadgets, the movie begins to feel like it's stuck in a loop; it hasn't enough wits or smarts to wring more than a few decent jokes and observations out of its one-note set-up." |
|
Catwoman (2004) |
|||
The Cave (2005) |
|||
Splat |
The Caveman's Valentine (2001) |
"Deserves an A for ambition, but the final product is a pastiche of too many predecessors." |
|
Tomato 4/5 |
CB4 (1993) |
"One of the first movies to parody gangsta rap, it does so knowingly and affectionately." |
|
Tomato |
Cecil B. Demented (2000) |
"Cecil B. Demented is essential viewing." |
|
Tomato 4/5 |
The Celebration (1998) |
"Best of the 'Dogme' fims, which isn't saying much, but there you go." |
|
Tomato |
The Cell (2000) |
"It's the first film of the summer that makes you hold your breath, strokes the imagination, satisfies filmgoers' desire to be transported." |
|
Splat |
The Center of the World (2001) |
"The most lurid and frequently obnoxious sex drama seen in quite some time." |
|
Tomato |
Center Stage (2000) |
"The script, by Carol Heikkinen, contains enough characters and subplots that the movie always feels as if it is going somewhere." |
|
Tomato |
Changing Lanes (2002) |
"Even if the ride's a little bumpy, with a final lap that's all too suspiciously smooth, you gotta give director Roger Michell, best known for the superfluous Notting Hill, credit for trying." |
|
Charlie Bartlett (2007) |
|||
Tomato 5/5 |
A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965) |
"It's truly wonderful; even followers of Zoroaster can dig it. The choreography is particularly spiffy." |
|
Splat |
Charlie's Angels (2000) |
"The director so underestimates his audience, he all but stands in the aisles and tells us what morons we are." |
|
Splat |
Charlotte Gray (2001) |
"The movie is almost breathlessly girlish, the kind of chaste, fantasy romance-adventure that might be imagined by a girl of 11 still dreaming of her first kiss." |
|
Charlotte Sometimes (2002) |
"[Director] Byler may yet have a great movie in him, but Charlotte Sometimes is only half of one." |
||
Tomato 4/5 |
The Chase (1994) |
"Goofball fun, and Swanson's rarely been hotter." |
|
Splat |
Chelsea Walls (2002) |
"With virtually no interesting elements for an audience to focus on, Chelsea Walls is a triple-espresso endurance challenge." |
|
Splat |
Cherish (2002) |
"It's easy to love Robin Tunney -- she's pretty and she can act -- but it gets harder and harder to understand her choices." |
|
Tomato |
The Cherry Orchard (2002) |
"Those with a modicum of patience will find in these characters' foibles a timeless and unique perspective." |
|
Chicken Little (2005) |
|||
Tomato 5/5 |
Child's Play (1988) |
"A gem, with one of the best "sudden reveals" ever committed to celluloid" |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
Children of the Corn (1984) |
"If you need a laugh, come to Malachi!" |
|
Tomato |
"Young delivers a spry, richly detailed adventure for general audiences, truly a feat deserving acclaim." |
||
Tomato |
Chocolat (2000) |
"Creates and sustains an elegant timelessness that is all too rare in contemporary cinema." |
|
Tomato |
Chop Suey (2001) |
"With footage of Faye in performance, and interviews with her friends and associates, Weber uses Faye as base from which to branch out in bizarre directions." |
|
Tomato |
Chopper (2001) |
"Strong, effective but often stomach-churning portrait." |
|
Tomato 5/5 |
A Christmas Story (1984) |
"There's a reason they run this for 24 hours every December -- it really is that good, maybe the best Christmas movie ever." |
|
Tomato |
Chuck & Buck (2000) |
"This is not a movie for everyone, but it just might grow on you." |
