U-571 (2000) |
"You will feel like you're in the midst of battle." |
|
Tomato 5/5 |
UHF (1989) |
"If the idea of a Weird Al movie is anathema to you, just don't bother reading anything I write, ever." |
|
Tomato |
Ultimate X: The Movie (2002) |
"Via the IMAX format -- and some blown-up DV -- we get loads of high-adrenaline kicks, as well as some very peculiar philosophy." |
|
Tomato |
Umberto D. (1952) |
"It's a stark snapshot in which all is revealed about the 'daily life of mankind,' as the director once offered by way of description." |
|
Tomato 4/5 |
The Undead (1957) |
"Classic but little-seen B-flick that deserves a modern-day remake. Check out Billy Barty as the evil Imp." |
|
Undead (2005) |
|||
Tomato 4/5 |
"Good set-up, well-shot, but Seagal never allows any villain to be much of a challenge for his character, which saps the tension." |

Tomato |
Under Suspicion (2000) |
"Ninety percent of this thriller is absolutely terrific; but the 10 percent that fails is so troubling that it threatens to undermine all that is wonderful in the rest." |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
Under the Cherry Moon (1986) |
"Strictly for Prince fans, but then again I am one." |
|
Tomato |
Under the Sand (2001) |
"Ozon may not be the next Truffaut -- not yet, anyway -- but he shows a deft touch here." |
|
Tomato |
Under the Sun (2001) |
"Gentle and gorgeous, honoring atmosphere over attitude." |
|
Underclassman (2005) |

Tomato |
Undercover Brother (2002) |
"The beauty of this smart, sharp comedy lies in its dexterity, as it raises one fist in a friendly Black Power salute and firmly gooses the whole audience with the other." |
|
Undertow (2004) |
|||
Underworld (2003) |
"It engenders more comic-book comradeship than awe. (No rating: Neither 'Fresh' nor 'Rotten.')" |
||
Undiscovered (2005) |
|||
Splat |
Undisputed (2002) |
"A limp showcase of machismo so passé as to embarrass your average Australopithecus." |
|
Splat |
Unfaithful (2002) |
"There's nothing interesting in Unfaithful whatsoever." |
|
An Unfinished Life (2005) |
|||
Tomato 5/5 |
Unforgiven (1992) |
"He's old, he's pissed, and he's gonna kill everyone. Dude, it's Clint. Enough said." |
|
Tomato 4/5 |
Universal Soldier (1992) |
"Roland Emmerich's best film, and Lundgren's best acting job. Admittedly that ain't saying much in either case, but a fun flick all in all." |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
Unlawful Entry (1992) |
"A competent thriller, not much more." |
|
Unleashed (2005) |
|||
Splat |
Up at the Villa (2000) |
"Drenched in overheated romance, decadence, and lightweight political intrigue, Up at the Villa clanks along for almost two hours." |
|
Tomato |
Uprising (2001) |
"A superior film that deserves real movie treatment." |
|
Ushpizin (2005) |
"The film extols the virtues of charity and generosity without sugar-coating the difficulty of same" |
