Candy (2006)

"...Our time with Candy and Dan, though tediously long, feels superficial."

Capote (2005)

"Not only does Hoffman deserve great praise, but also the movie itself, an assured first feature for filmmaker Miller."

Capturing the Friedmans (2003)

"An extraordinary rendering of an extraordinary story."

Cars (2006)

"The script is unfailingly witty, the animation is breathtaking and clever -- the cast of voice actors is spirited and funny, and the direction as accomplished as any film you're likely to see this year."

Cast Away (2000)

"Movies that are supposed to be about the 'journeys of the heart' very rarely have real heart. Cast Away is a major exception."

Catch Me If You Can (2002)

"Full of fun and verve, with ample battery power supplied by its handy helmsman."

Catwoman (2004)

"After Gothika and now her turn in this Catwoman, it seems like Berry's career may be headed toward the litter box."

The Cell (2000)

"It's innovative, well-acted and wonderfully weird."

The Center of the World (2001)

"Interesting and provocative."

Changing Lanes (2002)

"A film that dares to probe, intelligently, into some of those most essential, difficult American issues: race and class."

Charlie Wilson's War (2007)

" Crile's book is a detailed, cautionary tale. Nichols and Sorkin's version isn't completely without reflection, but it mostly dodges the ugly in favor of personality."

Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle (2003)

"The girls are essentially Barbie dolls who do stunts."

Chasing Liberty (2004)

"It's all very Roman Holiday, except that Moore isn't Audrey Hepburn and these two actors don't have a lot of natural chemistry between them."

Chicken Little (2005)

"Sad to say, Little's magical spell goes poof halfway through."

Chill Factor (1999)

"Chill Factor is just the kind of failed action picture one expects to see during these final days of August."

The Chorus (2005)

"It's one of those tasteful, sweetly sentimental movies that may grate on the more jaded members of the audience, but will likely leave many a moviegoer with a moist eye and a warm glow."

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe (2005)

"The Chronicles of Narnia so vividly captures the magic of the book that Harry Potter might just want to watch his back."

Cinderella Man (2005)

"Most directors shy away from the Time That Oscar Voters Forget. Ron Howard must be getting bolder."

Civic Duty (2007)

"Civic Duty does engage and get your pulse racing."

The Clearing (2004)

"Brugge ... builds the tension slowly and carefully, until we find ourselves, like Eileen, in the dark woods longing for everything to be all right."

Click (2006)

"Why Click fails to click is because of a crass, uncertain script, which wavers between an unfunny Saturday Night Live skit and a Lifetime Channel movie. Only once, near the end, did I care about his plight. But then, maybe it was heartburn."

Code 46 (2004)

"The heavy-handed love story is marked for failure by its dependence on a tired romantic theme and a pair of mismatched leads."

Cold Mountain (2003)

"You walk out thinking of it not as a romance, but rather a film about the ferocious desire to survive, how love of place can feed that instinct, and how dire circumstances can inspire people to form unorthodox families."

Collateral Damage (2002)

"A piece of revenge porn."

Color Me Kubrick (2007)

"[Kubrick] might dismiss as trite the message that proximity to celebrity is so intoxicating, it stupefies. But one hopes he'd relish the cheerful audacity of the caper and its telling."
