Tadpole (2002) |
"...a surprisingly deft little ensemble piece with performance gems, unexpected intimacy and a sneaky sense of humor." |
Sean Axmaker |

Tae Guk Gi: The Brotherhood of War (2004) |
"There's nothing subtle in the symbolism of this operatic melodrama, in which emotion overcomes reason... (but) that runaway passion is also what drives the film." |
Sean Axmaker |
Tomato A- |
The Tailor of Panama (2001) |
"Energetic and inventive, it's a satirical, smart, grown-up thriller." |
Sean Axmaker |
Tomato B- |
The Take (2004) |
"This grass-roots solution is revolutionary, in the most basic sense of the word, and the filmmakers want to celebrate it as much as they explain it..." |
Sean Axmaker |
Tomato A |
Take My Eyes (2006) |
"Actors Laia Marull and Luis Tosar explore the intricate details of a relationship based on the laws of attraction and repulsion, in which the intellect is repeatedly devastated by primal passion." |
Bill White |
Tomato B- |
Take the Lead (2006) |
"It's easy to watch, the dance sequences are sporadically enjoyable (if hardly innovative) and Antonio Banderas is wonderfully magnetic and charming in the lead." |
William Arnold |
Tomato B- |
Taken (2009) |
"Longtime action cinematographer Pierre Morrel proves adept at using the quick, claustrophobic cuts of the Bourne franchise and the Transporter flicks." |
Travis Nichols |
Splat C+ |
Taking Lives (2004) |
"After skillfully playing with us with numerous possibilities of who the 'real' killer might be, it tips its hand way too early in the story -- and, after that, it's all downhill." |
William Arnold |
Tomato A- |
Taking Sides (2003) |
"Extraordinarily powerful and explosively acted." |
William Arnold |
Splat C |
The Tale of Despereaux (2008) |
"The life has been sucked out of DiCamillo's story." |
Paula Nechak |
Tomato B+ |
A Tale Of Two Sisters (2003) |
"... one of the best and most haunting of the recent Asian horror films." |
Sean Axmaker |
Splat C+ |
The Talent Given Us (2004) |
"Autobiographical or not, the frankness and family hysteria of this rolling therapy session gets awkwardly intimate and at times tough to endure..." |
Sean Axmaker |
Tomato B+ |
The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) |
"The Talented Mr. Ripley is a seductive, sly work." |
Paula Nechak |
Tomato B- |
Talk to Her (2002) |
"Occasionally funny, always very colorful and enjoyably overblown in the traditional Almodóvar style." |
William Arnold |
Tomato B+ |
Talk to Me (2007) |
"There's plenty to like ..." |
Gianni Truzzi |
Tomato B |
A Talking Picture (2003) |
"Feels like cinema's grand old man is leaving us a legacy with grace and compassion." |
Sean Axmaker |
Tomato B+ |
Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006) |
"The film comes together to be a dead-on satire of a movie genre, an expert comedy of character and an almost perfect vehicle for Ferrell, who shines in a half-dozen or more of the most elaborately crafted and howlingly funny routines he's ever concocted." |
William Arnold |

Splat B- |
Tape (2001) |
"Unfortunately can't transcend its theatrical roots and the actors, good as they are, seem like they're grandstanding." |
Paula Nechak |
Tomato A- |
Tarzan (1999) |
"A buoyant, often thrilling piece of animation that more or less does for the Central African rain forest what The Lion King did for the East African savanna." |

The Taste of Tea (2004) |
"The imagery is joyous, delightfully imaginative, serene and beautiful, and ultimately enchanting." |
Sean Axmaker |
Tomato B |
Taxi to the Dark Side (2008) |
"Taxi to the Darkside journeys into a new heart of darkness, the destination of which lies outside the frontiers of humanity. It is a must-see for anybody concerned with the potential shift in the American character as a result of its war on terror." |

Teaching Mrs. Tingle (1999) |

William Arnold |
Tomato B |
Team America: World Police (2004) |
"Hilarious." |

Tomato B+ |
Tears of the Black Tiger (2000) |
"... this pop-art confection both spoofs and celebrates the crazy conventions of movie melodramas and genre cinema with pure affection." |
Sean Axmaker |
Splat C- |
Tears of the Sun (2003) |
"It's hard to say what is more upsetting: the atrocities of a brutal African dictator's militia against innocent Catholic peasants, or the victims of that genocide becoming background figures in the story of the platoon's moral quandary." |
Sean Axmaker |
Tomato B- |
Teeth (2008) |
"The film's first half contains a series of sharply satirical scenes." |
Bill White |
Tomato B+ |
Tell No One (2008) |
"For all of its insanity of supposition, familial discord and the often-explored theme of the corrupt nature of the rich, Tell No One is something rare and original." |
Paula Nechak |
Splat C |
Tell Them Who You Are (2005) |
"Haskell comes off as a jerk -- but Mark somehow looks even worse: not just insincere but weak, vain and vindictive." |
William Arnold |
Tomato A- |
Ten (2003) |
"... a marvelous tension between the formal design and the improvisational style." |
Sean Axmaker |

The Ten (2007) |
"It doesn't make for much of a movie." |
Bill White |

Ten Canoes (2007) |
"... a top-flight example of cinematic storytelling ..." |
Bill White |
Splat C- |
The Ten Commandments (2007) |
"This new version of the story of Moses is a huge step backward for theatrical CG animation, or any animation for that matter." |
Andy Spletzer |
Splat C+ |
Ten Nights of Dreams (2008) |
"Followers of the new Japanese cinema will enjoy getting an early look at new styles by emerging talents, but these are essentially student films that are not likely to be embraced by the casual moviegoer." |
Bill White |
Tomato B- |
Tenacious D in: The Pick of Destiny (2006) |
"... low-wattage power slide down a yellow-brick road of thrash cliches, stoner skits and music-video parodies" |
Sean Axmaker |
Tomato B |
Tenth District Court (2004) |
"[Raymond] Depardon puts a microscope on human behavior under pressure and comes out with both a social study and the greatest people-watching documentary in ages." |
Sean Axmaker |
Tomato B |
The Terminal (2004) |
"It never gets any big laughs or major lumps in the throat, but it sparks throughout." |
William Arnold |
Tomato B |
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003) |
"... in a summer of comic book super-operas dense with psychological torment and sprawling well over two hours, the unpretentious efficiency of Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines is refreshing." |
Sean Axmaker |
Tomato |
Terror's Advocate (2007) |
"While the man [Vergčs] has a snappy aphorism for every question, he remains as imponderable and enigmatic as the Sphinx." |

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003) |
"Efforts to expand the envelope of grotesquery make the film repulsive and suspenseless, and it sorely misses original director Tobe Hooper's grisly, wily sense of humor." |
William Arnold |
Tomato A |
Thank You For Smoking (2006) |
"... a sly, smart and very funny caricature of corporate politics and image culture." |

The Cats of Mirikitani (2006) |
"In its best moments, The Cats of Mirikitani captures both the tragedy and transcendence of his life." |
Bill White |
Splat C- |
The Clone Wars (2008) |
"... less a movie than a marketing event: a feature-length promo for the upcoming TV series and video game tie-in." |
Sean Axmaker |

The Counterfeiters (2008) |
"Austrian director-writer Stefan Ruzowitzky does an extraordinary job of setting up this central moral dilemma: of making the situation both credible and not nearly as ethically cut and dry as it might sound." |
