Rating Title Year Quote Author

Tomato
2.5/4

The Jacket (2005)

"I was still with The Jacket at the end, largely because Brody makes a compelling antihero."

Mary F. Pols

Splat

Jakob the Liar (1999)

"Plays dangerously close to Hogan's Heroes goes to Auschwitz."

Karen Hershenson

Tomato
B+

Jarhead (2005)

"Based on the acclaimed memoir by Anthony Swofford, Jarhead presents a no-holds-barred testimonial from the scrambled and ribald perspective of a 20-year-old Marine sniper."

Randy Myers

Splat

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001)

"Smith more often than he should takes the easy way out: Why bother with a punch line when you can plug in a fistful of four-letter words?"

Vera H-C Chan

Tomato

Jeepers Creepers (2001)

"The surprise is that, even though the title garnered laughs with every movie audience I was with who saw the trailer, Jeepers Creepers isn't a bad little horror flick."

Vera H-C Chan

Splat
C

Joe Strummer: The Future is Unwritten (2007)

"Joe Strummer: The Future Is Unwritten is a film for fans -- really big fans. More-casual admirers, perhaps those whose only Strummer CD is the Clash's "London Calling," should probably stay away."

Jim Harrington

Splat

John Carpenter's Ghosts of Mars (2001)

"I cannot fathom why Carpenter would want to brand his name to this movie, akin to leaving fingerprints at the scene of a crime."

Vera H-C Chan

Splat
2/4

John Q (2002)

"So earnest and well-meaning, and so stocked with talent, that you almost forget the sheer, ponderous awfulness of its script."

Vera H-C Chan

Tomato
B

Jonestown: The Life and Death of Peoples Temple (2006)

"Nelson's film helps us understand that Jonestown may be history, but the tremendous loss still resonates."

Mary F. Pols

Splat

Josie and the Pussycats (2001)

"Steve Madden probably didn't object to having his line of shoes mentioned a half dozen times in the season's hot girlie movie, no matter what the context."

Mary F. Pols

Tomato
A-

Juno (2007)

"An exceedingly clever, offbeat comedy about a pregnant teenager."

Mary F. Pols

Tomato
3/4

Just Like Heaven (2005)

"What manages to save this film from becoming a big-screen version of an Air Supply song is Ruffalo."

Randy Myers
