K-19: The Widowmaker (2002) |
"As intelligent as it is suspenseful." |
Terry Lawson |
Splat |
K-Pax (2001) |
"Everything about K-PAX seems to have been manufactured at Have a Blessed Day, Inc." |
Terry Lawson |
Splat 2/4 |
Kalamazoo? (2006) |
"While the low-budget comedy is occasionally charming, it mostly fails in clumsy attempts at evoking laughs and tears." |
John Monaghan |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kandahar (2001) |
"Perhaps best appreciated as a record of what life was like before the U.S. invasion and as a lesson in why the rest of the world should have cared even before the terrorist attacks." |
Terry Lawson |
Splat 2/4 |
Kangaroo Jack (2003) |
"An action comedy that's as idiotic as it sounds. Still, it's also harmless enough entertainment for its intended preteen audience." |
John Monaghan |
Splat 2/4 |
Karla (2006) |
"Things in the movie, like the slasher movie music cues, hint that Karla has exploitation in its veins. The reasons for making it -- and seeing it -- remain more than slightly suspect." |
John Monaghan |
Splat |
Kate and Leopold (2001) |
"Seems like nothing so much as the product of focus-group sessions, a by-the-numbers chick flick about a woman who finds the Perfect Man and then doesn't know what to do about it." |
Terry Lawson |
Splat 2/4 |
Keeping Up With The Steins (2006) |
"We get the distinct feeling this film has been made by people who don't really want to offend their friends, who would rather spend a million dollars impressing others as opposed to throwing it away on hunger relief or American education." |
Terry Lawson |
Splat 1/4 |
Kickin' It Old Skool (2007) |
"When Jamie Kennedy wakes up from 20 years in a coma and still thinks he's in the 1980s, the results are kind of funny -- for about 5 minutes." |
John Monaghan |
Splat 1/4 |
Kicking and Screaming (2005) |
"... barely watchable." |
John Monaghan |
Tomato 4/4 |
The Kid Stays in the Picture (2002) |
"Giddy, absurdly entertaining account of Evans' rise and fall in the movie biz." |
Terry Lawson |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kids in America (2005) |
"An anti-Bush, pro-First Amendment, completely ridiculous fight-the-power comedy that happens to have been inspired by actual events." |
Terry Lawson |
Tomato 4/4 |
Kill Bill Vol. 1 (2003) |
"Vol. 1 is a shot of pure adrenalin on celluloid, headed for the heart and the gut, not the head." |
Terry Lawson |
Tomato 4/4 |
Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004) |
"Kill Bill Vol. 2 is the movie that makes movie geekdom seem sexy." |
Terry Lawson |
Tomato 3/4 |
Killer of Sheep (1977) |
"It may fill you with despair or offer up relief, but you will not be unmoved." |
Terry Lawson |
Tomato 3/4 |
King Arthur (2004) |
"For all this silly spin, King Arthur is a better movie than you might have expected." |
Terry Lawson |
Tomato 3/4 |
King Kong (2005) |
"While one cannot deny his giant-sized filmmaking gifts or his showmanship, nor can we ignore how thin the air of self-importance feels by the time every last digital effect has been pulled out of the magic bag." |
Terry Lawson |
Splat 2/4 |
King of California (2007) |
"Intermittedly entertaining if mostly contrived." |
Terry Lawson |
Tomato 3/4 |
The King Of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (2007) |
"The big laughs here come from the subjects' self-absorption." |
John Monaghan |
Tomato 3/4 |
King Of The Corner (2005) |
"Thanks to Riegert's obvious passion for the project, it succeeds even when individual scenes play like bits from an actors' workshop." |
John Monaghan |
Splat 2/4 |
The Kingdom (2007) |
"A lot of satisfying, entertaining action pictures have only an artificial brain to power the machinery. The Kingdom is the opposite: It's a smart picture with much to say. But in the end, it elects not to say it." |
Terry Lawson |
Splat |
Kingdom Come (2001) |
"While Kingdom Come follows the formula for comic combustibility, it's even more inert than Bud, who at least comes to life for a brief fantasy sequence." |
Terry Lawson |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kingdom of Heaven (2005) |
"An exceedingly well-made, reasonably involving and impressively intelligent movie about political and religious turmoil in 1186." |

Kinsey (2004) |
"I can't imagine the performances, or much else, being improved on." |
Terry Lawson |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang (2005) |
"Kiss Kiss may be impossibly pleased with itself, but with good reason." |
Terry Lawson |
Tomato |
Kiss of the Dragon (2001) |
"Well-choreographed action set pieces." |
Terry Lawson |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Kite Runner (2007) |
"The filmmakers go by the book in The Kite Runner, a literate, if occasionally listless adaptation of Khaled Hosseini's best-selling novel." |
John Monaghan |
Splat 2/4 |
Km. 0 (2003) |
"The writer-director team of Juan Luis Iborra and Yolanda Garcia Serrano stage the lunacy like a season's worth of Spanish TV sitcoms strung together into a single feature." |
John Monaghan |
Tomato |
A Knight's Tale (2001) |
"A Knight's Tale should be ridiculous, and it is: ridiculously entertaining." |
Terry Lawson |
Splat 2/4 |
Knockaround Guys (2002) |
"There's nothing in the half-comic, half-serious Knockaround Guys you can't see weekly in The Sopranos." |
Terry Lawson |
Tomato 3/4 |
Knocked Up (2007) |
"Even if it goes on past full-term, it never seems like labor: more like a big bungle of joy." |
Terry Lawson |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kung Fu Hustle (2005) |
"It would seem all but impossible not to have a good time watching Kung Fu Hustle..." |
