Valiant (2005) |
"People who liked the Shrek flicks may actually try to prove their sophistication amongst themselves by rejecting this pale imitation of an embarrassing cultural artifact." |

Vanilla Sky (2001) |
"The crown prince of weakling uplift has actually fallen down on the altar of the ultimate Kafkaesque Hollywood godhead: Tom Cruise" |
Walter Chaw |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
The Vanishing (1993) |
"Often stands shoulder-to-shoulder with its forerunner--or is at the very least too provocative in its departures to dismiss out of hand" |
Bill Chambers |
Splat D |
Vantage Point (2008) |
"It's most interesting as a one-gimmick film--which is to say that it's not very interesting at all." |
Bryant Frazer |
Splat 0.5/4 |
Venomous (2001) |

Walter Chaw |
Splat 1/4 |
Veronica Guerin (2003) |
"Fairly typical Schumacher fare in that it looks okay in an over-processed sort of way, tackles middlebrow concerns with a middlebrow squeamishness, and sucks." |
Walter Chaw |
Tomato 4/4 |
Vertigo (1958) |
"After it, Psycho and the rest of the '60s are only a bitter précis of this thesis of sexual disassociation and identity politics." |
Walter Chaw |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
A Very Brady Sequel (1996) |
"A funnier movie than its predecessor; its detours into surrealism and kink are richer and braver." |
Bill Chambers |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
A Very Long Engagement (2004) |
"So well made that the horrors of trench warfare have all the impact of a beautifully-dressed, slightly morbid department store window." |
Walter Chaw |

Vidocq (2002) |
"Pitof's swooping, busy frame is so numbing that we become attentive to the problems of the script..." |
Bill Chambers |
Splat 0.5/4 |
The Village (2004) |
"Shyamalan's films have become life support systems for his twists." |
Walter Chaw |
