Tomato 3/4 |
A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001) |
"It bumps and thumps a bit, more simulated than real, but this odd blending of "Moulin Rouge" and "Bicentennial Man" eventually makes a spectacle of itself." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 4/4 |
About a Boy (2002) |
"This is a very fine movie -- go see it." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
About Schmidt (2002) |
"Warm in its loving yet unforgivingly inconsistent depiction of everyday people, relaxed in its perfect quiet pace and proud in its message. I loved this film." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 3/4 |
Across the Universe (2007) |
"A lush, interesting mix of media - song, old-school psychedelic effects, acting & dance. It's a musical tribute to Rock's most loved British band that plays out in America." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Adam's Apples (2007) |
"Strong direction, solid acting, and a script as crisp and juicy as freshly picked apples. A solid "A" film." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Adaptation (2002) |
"The film is complex, intricate, interesting and almost hypnotizing, till Charlie gets stuck (the screenplay he's writing is the one you're watching). Glad he had the gonads to do what he did then, but it subtracts from the overall entertainment value." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 3/4 |
Adrenaline Rush (2004) |
"Yes, the production spends some time discussing the biology of adrenaline in the human body & de Vinci, but the bread and butter falls from the sky with cameras mounted!" |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Adventures of Sharkboy and Lava Girl in 3-D (2005) |
"Paced well for kids, heavy on puns, and plants a few "thought-proking" seeds, but never commits to more than surface depth." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 7/10 |
An Affair of Love (2000) |

Tomato 2.5/4 |
Against the Ropes (2003) |
"Omar Epps, sporting a great physique and aggressive acting chops, opens up the ring bringing heart and drama to an intro that hadn't much more to offer than big names." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Ali (2001) |
"Ali's unabashed determination and belief in himself through extremely trying times ... this is what really makes him "The Greatest."" |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
All Access: Front Row. Backstage. Live! (2001) |
"This is the way to see a concert!" |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
All of Me (1984) |
""All of me" is very funny, but not too outlandish, risque (at times) but not disgusting. A quality comedy with a heart." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 8/10 |
Almost Famous (2000) |
"Almost one of my top ten titles for the year, this imperfect diamond still has much to enjoy." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Along Came Polly (2004) |
"The emotional arc and climax aren't as dynamic as they could have been, low brow humor abounds, but still -- there is never a dull moment." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 3/4 |
Amelie (2001) |
"Amelie understands our little insanities and appreciates us for them." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
America's Sweethearts (2001) |
"Has its share of memorable funny moments.
" |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato B+ |
American Beauty (1999) |
"I'd have preferred that this realization be stumbled across by means other than pot and lust, still, a great film." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
American Dreamz (2006) |
"With such acting talent and some of the creators of much better films, you may be expecting more than a good farce. However, the farce is pretty much what you're getting here." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
American Experience - Return With Honor (1999) |
"Its spirit is more than enough to scale a 70 foot screen." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 3/4 |
American Gangster (2007) |
"This initially hokey 70's-TV-style production determinedly matures into a motion picture with cinematic impact. Happily, climax/resolution detour from others in the genre." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 3/4 |
American Pie (1999) |
"you'll want the ending delayed because you'll be enjoying the movie that much." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
American Pie 2 (2001) |
""Pie" took a solid story and built in great laughs, "Pie2" takes big laughs and forces in some story." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
American Splendor (2003) |
"A rough grumpy, yet warm portrait of a self-proclaimed pessimist, with a hesitant yet hopeful outlook. And of course, Giamatti's performance is stellar. Sticky at the outset, but ripens well." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
American Wedding (2003) |
"In a way, "American Wedding" becomes a Stiffler of a film. INTERVIEW with Sean William Scott." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 3/4 |
Analyze That (2002) |
"Every bit as funny as "Analyze This."" |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 3/4 |
Analyze This (1998) |
"Good Fella on the couch." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004) |
"Surprise surprise, the movie outplays its trailer. Picks up big well-deserved laughs in between ever decreasing non-funny moments.
" |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Anger Management (2003) |
"If this were a student piece, I would have told the makers that they had something here, but it needed further fine-tuning. I'd have handed it back for revisions with the comment, "Make the whole film sparkle like the bridge scene or the bar scene."" |

Tomato 3/4 |
Anna and the King (1999) |
"Pictorially splendid, it's largely large, epic and expansive. It's long, pack a lunch." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 3/4 |
Another Road Home (2005) |
"Though, at times a bit incomplete, this documentary is still quite endearing, engaging and extremely educational in matters of politics and heart." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 7/10 |
Antitrust (2001) |
"Never a dull moment, well paced and suspenseful to the end." |
Ross Anthony |

"Hard, endearing, caring, warm. Bring tissues." |

Tomato 2.5/4 |
Any Given Sunday (1999) |
"This is a hardcore football flick, not some mushy tale with football as a backdrop." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Anywhere But Here (1999) |
"This is a mother/daughter film. Despite the fact that I am neither a mother, a daughter, nor a film; I loved it!" |

Around the World in 80 Days (2004) |
"Wholesome for the most part, this rich robust family film (with the flair of yesteryear) clips along fast. It plants a smile on your face that lasts for the duration.

Tomato 3/4 |
The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007) |
"High quality production. The dialogue in this film sings with poetry, grit, spit, and the ring of rural America circa 1880's. Not an action picture, long with a relaxed pace." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
August Rush (2007) |
"Flawed, yet, does what I, as a musician, find difficult to do. It conveys in words&pictures that wonderful feeling of being caught in a much grander current of rhythm&melody." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Aurora Borealis (2006) |
"It'll bring a tear to your eye, a chuckle to your belly, and good circulation to your day. It's big warm heart shines strong through the celluloid." |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002) |
"Shamelessly resorting to pee-related sight gags that might even cause Tom Green a grimace; still, Myer's energy and the silliness of it all eventually prevail" |
Ross Anthony |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999) |
"Overall, actor Mike Myers did an absolutely smashing job with this light-weight script while playing three roles to boot." |

"Lush, vibrant, well-paced." |

Tomato 2.5/4 |
Away We Go (2009) |
"Nestles nicely into a sweet rocking motion between humor and heart. The leads are warm, fuzzy, funny and very likeable. The few faults may very well go unnoticed." |
Ross Anthony |
Splat 2/4 |
Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights (2002) |
"Stale first act, Scrooge story, blatant product placement, some very good comedic songs, strong finish, dumb fart jokes." |
Ross Anthony |
Splat 2/4 |
After Life (1998) |
"meaningful, but sleepy." |
