Tomato 4/5 |
Nacho Libre (2006) |
"Oddly reverent, faintly patronizing (they shot it in Mexico, with an exceptionally homely cast of extras), and always warm and funny." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 3/5 |
The Namesake (2007) |
"Penn is just wrong for it." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Nancy Drew (2007) |
"If Nancy Drew is the start of a new franchise, parents and kids alike should rejoice." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 3/5 |
The Nanny Diaries (2007) |
"These Diaries devolve into an outraged, sad-eyed social commentary that condemns New York's people of privilege and their rich, child-neglecting ways, but doesn't really let us laugh at them." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Nanny McPhee (2006) |
"Nanny McPhee, though it drags a bit in its middle acts, finishes with such gusto that neither you nor your kids will need a spoonful of anything to make this movie medicine go down." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Napoleon Dynamite (2004) |
"The funniest film of the summer." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Narc (2002) |
"Finesse is certainly at a premium in Narc. What we get is brute force and a whopping load of testosterone." |
Jay Boyar |
Splat 3/5 |
National Geographic - Forces of Nature (2005) |
"A tad dated when it was finished earlier this year." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 1/5 |
National Lampoon Presents - Robodoc (2008) |
"A stumbling satire of a malpractice-marred medical profession, Robodoc has a sitcom-trained cast that should be able to land the one-liners. What's missing are the one-liners." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 1/5 |
National Lampoon's Gold Diggers (2004) |
"If National Lampoon's Gold Diggers ... had a single laugh in it, that laugh would die of loneliness." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
National Lampoon's Van Wilder (2002) |
"When it comes to collegiate humor, nobody goes lowbrow like our friends at the Lampoon." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
National Treasure (2004) |
"Cage invests none of the edge, passion or heart we've come to expect from him in the part. Bean has no decent villainous moments, and the rest of the cast (save for Voight) is forgettable and generic." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 3/5 |
National Treasure 2 : Book of Secrets (2007) |
"It's wonderful how much real history they sandwich into this ham and cheese on wry." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Nativity Story (2006) |
"This is the movie Mel Gibson should have made, a simple tale simply titled and sweetly told." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
Neil Young - Greendale (2004) |
"Overall, it's a pretty irritating movie. But as I watched it, almost in spite of myself, I kept getting caught up in Young's music." |
Jay Boyar |
Tomato 3/5 |
Neil Young - Heart of Gold (2006) |
"This Prairie Wind concert is one long sweet twang of wistful not-quite-regret." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 3/5 |
Never Back Down (2008) |
"Even though it's as predictable as a pro-wrestling match, what it lacks in originality it makes up for in the nervous energy of youth and testosterone." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 1/5 |
Never Die Alone (2004) |
"Has a story so silly, so pretentious, that only a narcissistic rapper with a hardcore thug pose would have the chutzpah to star in and narrate such garbage." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
The New Guy (2002) |
"The same old lame high school screen comedy garbage, rehashed for a new generation of suckers." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 3/5 |
New in Town (2009) |
"Zellweger and Connick make a believable couple and one with real oil-and-water-don't-mix sparks. This is what romantic chemistry looks like." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
The New World (2005) |
"Malick paints the celluloid like a canvas, filling it with rapturous images of wild America, its flowing fields of grass, rivers teeming with fish and the endless horizon of free land." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
New York Doll (2005) |
"New York Doll is still a revelation, and a fine companion piece to End of the Century, the edgier and uglier history of another post-Dolls band, The Ramones." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 1/5 |
New York Minute (2004) |
"Pure pablum and tiresome in the bargain." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 3/5 |
Next (2007) |
"Who says preposterous junk can't be fun?" |
Roger Moore |
Splat |
The Next Best Thing (2000) |
"After the melodrama kicks in, the film turns disastrously sappy." |
Jay Boyar |
Splat 2/5 |
Next Day Air (2009) |
"The laughs come easily enough. But the violence and grim finale drag this coke-deal-gone-wrong comedy into a hole it can't giggle its way out of." |
Roger Moore |
Splat |
Next Friday (1999) |
"Cube walks through this picture in an unconnected, unfunny daze, torching what is obviously a great talent in pursuit of cheap laughs and big box office." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
Nicholas Nickleby (2002) |
"McGrath has rendered the weighty, moving and engrossing Dickens tale into a near sitcom." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (2008) |
"Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist is one of those magical, near-perfect youth romances, a film that so vividly reminds you of the glories of young love that you wish you were 18 again, full of hope, not jaded by life and love lost." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 3/5 |
Night at the Museum (2006) |
"Kids, supposedly too bored to go to such museums anymore (one of the film's messages, along with 'learn your history') should find this a Night to remember." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 3/5 |
Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian (2009) |
"When this excessive and silly farce works -- roughly half the time -- it's thanks to the comic dynamic created by funny folk who can go riff-to-riff with Stiller." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Night Listener (2006) |
"Night Listener draws you in to a tale well-told." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 3/5 |
Night Watch (2005) |
"It has a refreshing Old World take on a never-ending fantasy war between vampires and the forces of 'light.'" |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 5/5 |
The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) |

Splat 2/5 |
Nights in Rodanthe (2008) |
"The movie version of Nights begins with such promise before it drowns in the romance novelist's syrupy sentimentality." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 3/5 |
Nim's Island (2008) |
"It's worth spending 90 minutes on Nim's Island. You just wouldn't want to get stranded there." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Nine Lives (2005) |
"Nine Lives is an elegant film of quick, tour-de-force acting turns, a simple actor's gesture that tells you more than four pages of dialogue, a movie that demands concentration but that rewards the viewer willing to pay attention." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Nine Queens (2002) |
"The laughs are dark, the puzzle steadily more engrossing and the surprises, just like Heist, are doozies, up to the finale." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 1.5/4 |
Ninja Assassin (2009) |
"There’s more to making sword-and-splatter work than just shiny blades and blood. It’s got to have an edge, and the one on Ninja Assassin is dull as a butter knife." |
Roger Moore |
Splat |
The Ninth Gate (1999) |
"The filmmaker takes you on a journey that goes absolutely nowhere." |
Jay Boyar |
Tomato 5/5 |
No Country for Old Men (2007) |
"The story is vintage McCarthy in its sense of place and its poetic voice. And it is vintage Coens for some of those same traits, and its cruel, graphic violence." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
No End in Sight (2007) |
"This is a movie about the very officials who boasted 'I don't do quagmires' (then-defense secretary Rumsfeld), but who hadn't actually done the planning or simple reading of other people's plans that might have avoided that very fate." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
No Man's Land (2001) |
"... a gripping piece of combat theater." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
No Reservations (2007) |
"It's the blandness of the characters, the staleness of the settings and Zeta Jones' struggle with reserve that hobbles No Reservations." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 3/5 |
Nobel Son (2008) |
"Lacking the polish and coherence worthy of its cast, Nobel Son is no prize winner." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
Nobody Knows (2005) |
"Nobody Knows will chill you, further proof that the ability to procreate does not automatically qualify you to be a parent." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 3/5 |
Noëlle (2007) |
"It's clever, well-acted and almost-but-not-quite edgy." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
Nomad (The Warrior) (2007) |
"Kazakhstan supposedly spent $40 million in making this martial-arts epic. That bought a laughably corny Hollywood B-movie, gorgeous scenery, Hollywood B-actors and extras who plainly weren't members of the Screen Extras Guild." |
Roger Moore |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Nomi Song (2005) |
"This is fascinating stuff if you know just the commercial side of that strange music and fashion ripple known as New Wave." |
Roger Moore |
Splat 2/5 |
Norbit (2007) |
"Eddie Murphy plays three roles in his latest Nutty Professor clone, titled Norbit. And Eddie Griffin still steals his movie from him." |
Roger Moore |
