Splat 3/5 |
Eagle Eye (2008) |
"The fever-pitch paranoia of this terrorist thriller, the seizure-inducing editing, the dense layers slapped on a fairly simple plot all point to a kind of overkill that only Hollywood money can buy." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Eagle Vs. Shark (2007) |
"Daft, sweet, awkward and amusingly rude." |
Roger Moore |

Eastern Promises (2007) |
"It's just too bad Eastern Promises, on the whole, promises more than it delivers." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Easy Virtue (2009) |
"A winning, witty fox trot through the Roaring 20s, when men were men, women were liberating themselves and the 'to the manner born' were losing their grip on their manners -- and manors." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |

The Edukators (2005) |
"It ends interestingly, but it would've ended better, and played better, had it been half an hour shorter." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 3/5 |
Eight Below (2006) |
"Pity the filmmakers lost their nerve just short of a big payoff." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
Eight Legged Freaks (2002) |
"A homage to a genre of film made by people who are working from visual memories of horror cheapies like Them. They nailed the visual tribute. They just left out the cautionary morality, the sense of justice and the heart." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Electric Shadows |
"Strip away the silly ideology of the old films, and Electric Shadows could be any movie buff's tale. It's the memory movie of our own mind, in English, Mandarin or whatever language the local Bijou screened them in." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 3/5 |
Elegy (2008) |
"Occasionally touching, always interesting." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
Elektra (2005) |
"The film's multi-writer screenplay struggles vainly to hide its plagiarized themes and action beats." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Elephant (2003) |
"Van Sant, whose films often connect, sensitively, with the thinking of young people, has made a film that says things are wrong with kids today. We're missing the obvious." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Elf (2003) |
"It's Ferrell's untethered turn as Buddy that makes Elf sparkle." |
Jay Boyar |
Tomato 4/5 |
Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007) |
"[Blanchett's] so perfect in the part that you almost don't mind the abrupt ending." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 3/5 |
Elizabethtown (2005) |
"But as messy, unfocused and rambling as this is, fundamentally flawed as any movie about loss that doesn't let its characters or its viewers feel that loss, it's still a most-enjoyable mess to sit through, a Southern-fried Garden State." |
Roger Moore |
Splat |
Ella Enchanted (2004) |
"It's barely got a laugh in it." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
The Emperor's Club (2002) |
"What's at stake in this film is nothing more than an obsolete, if irritating, notion of class." |
Jay Boyar |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Emperor's New Clothes (2002) |
"A delightful, if minor, pastry of a movie." |
Jay Boyar |
Tomato |
The Emperor's New Groove (2000) |
"I admit I feel a little guilty to be praising a production whose aims are so thoroughly modest, but I laughed all the way through this movie." |
Jay Boyar |
Splat 2/5 |
Empire (2002) |
"The whole enterprise feels predigested, as there isn't much here we haven't seen done before and done better." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 1/5 |
Employee of the Month (2006) |
"Whatever that 'it' is that comic screen stars have, Cook doesn't have it. The timing isn't there, the sparkle, the Ryan Reynolds sneer. He's just bland." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Enchanted (2007) |
"The best Disney fantasy-musical since Mary Poppins, a hilarious, dazzling send-up of the thing that made Disney what it is today fairy-tale princesses." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 3/5 |

End of Days (1999) |
"It's too lurid, exploitative and, on some level, just plain silly." |
Jay Boyar |
Tomato 4/5 |
End of the Century: The Story of the Ramones (2004) |
"A deliriously musical portrait of a band that became famous and legendary without the headlining stardom that usually accompanies that." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 3/5 |
End of the Spear (2006) |
"What does hold back this terrifically detailed and often-entertaining effort are the limitations of the script and uneven acting." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato |
The Endurance: Shackleton's Legendary Antarctic Expedition (2001) |
"Beautifully blends interviews with scholars and descendants of that crew, still photos and movie film from the trip and re-creations of the events of the voyage." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 5/5 |
Enduring Love (2004) |
"It's a genuinely intriguing thriller and a mystery with a most rewarding conclusion." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato |
Enemy at the Gates (2001) |
"Even with its flaws, I guess you could say that this is the best American movie ever made about a heroic Soviet sniper and his propagandist pal." |
Jay Boyar |
Tomato 4/5 |
Enigma (2002) |
"Pay attention, guess where it's going, and find yourself surprised." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 3/5 |
Enough (2002) |
"We root for [Lopez], fear for her and eagerly await her transformation into something like The Equalizer." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 5/5 |
Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room (2005) |
"This thorough and thoroughly depressing account of the biggest corporate bankruptcy in history, and the rip-off that accompanied it, is so infuriating and dispiriting that your blood will boil, if not properly watered down." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 1/5 |
Epic Movie (2007) |
"Pity [the producers] couldn't find anything funny to do once they'd built the sets, and found dead ringers for Anna Paquin, Paris Hilton, P. Diddy and Jack Black." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
Equilibrium (2002) |
"Silly stuff, all mixed up together like a term paper from a kid who can't quite distinguish one sci-fi work from another." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
Eragon (2006) |
"The experienced actors (Irons, Malkovich, Carlyle, Hounsou, and Sienna Guillory) earn the big bucks just for keeping a straight face." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato |
Erin Brockovich (2000) |
"The best "message movie" in recent memory, it is also, so far, the best film of the new millennium." |
Jay Boyar |
Tomato 5/5 |
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) |
"A happy collision of cutting-edge writer, stars up for a challenge and a director with a taste for the symbolic." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 2/5 |
Eurotrip (2004) |
"If you're of a certain age -- and even if you're too young to remember Animal House or Kentucky Fried Movie -- you'll laugh and laugh and laugh. And hate yourself for it." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 3/5 |
Evan Almighty (2007) |
"It's a gentle, warm, 'big tent' big-budget comedy with all the rough edges rubbed off. Not an edge to be found." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
Evelyn (2002) |
"It's Kramer vs. Kramer, without the Kramers, a 'true story' without much of the truth." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 3/5 |
Evening (2007) |
"Evening could've been something precious. But it never rises above standard-issue 'chick flick'." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 5/5 |
Evergreen (2004) |
"Observant, touching, funny and smart." |
Jay Boyar |
Tomato 4/5 |
Every Little Step (2009) |
"Every Little Step is a terrific documentary history lesson about how Michael Bennett rounded up a bunch of New York singing, acting dancers, interviewed them and found out what they 'did for love,' back in January of 1974." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Everybody's Fine (2009) |
"A tolerably sober alternative to holiday froth at the mutliplex." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
Everyone's Hero (2006) |
"The script is anachronistic and trite ..." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Everything is Illuminated (2005) |
"It's funny and warm, with the sting of the horrific event that triggered the trip giving it a melancholy feel." |
Roger Moore |
Splat |
Evolution (2001) |
"Most likely outcome: Extinction." |
Jay Boyar |
Tomato 3/5 |
The Ex (2007) |
"Braff and Bateman make this patchwork just funny enough to be worth our trouble." |
Roger Moore |
Splat |
Exit Wounds (2001) |
"This film is not just bad, not just a bomb, but a corporate disaster." |
Roger Moore |
