Splat
2.5/4

S.W.A.T. (2003)

"The so-so summer movie syndrome continues with this poorly written but finely cast action-thriller based on yet another long-buried television series."

Tyler Hanley

Tomato
3/4

S1m0ne (2002)

"A sharp satire of desperation and cinematic deception."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Splat
1/4

Safe (1995)

Leonard Schwarz

Tomato
3.5/4

The Safety of Objects (2003)

"Not my life, not yours, but lives worth living and looking in on."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Splat
1/4

Sahara (2005)

Susan Tavernetti

Splat
1/4

The Saint (1997)

"The predictable action-thriller elements are all in place, from coke-sniffing, machine-gun-toting thugs to monotonous narrow escapes. The look is stylish, sound is above average, and the acting only as good as it has to be."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Tomato
2.5/4

Salton Sea (2002)

"Nearly manages to be what "Blow" couldn't - a perpetual night party that generates a sick fascination to the bitter end."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Tomato
3/4

The Santa Clause 2 (2002)

"The Santa Clause 2 is chock full of heartwarming holiday cheer."

Tyler Hanley

Tomato
3/4

The Savages (2007)

"Affecting and dangerously close to home."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Tomato
2.5/4

Save the Last Dance (2001)

"Sara's got a sense of humor about how very uncool she is, and she proves to be a game girl."

Jim Shelby

Tomato
3/4

Saved! (2004)

"At long last a religious satire that’s as deliciously subversive as it is entertaining."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Splat
1/4

Saving Grace (2000)

Jim Shelby

Tomato
3/4

Saving Private Ryan (1998)

"The platoon is an unlikely combination of heroes, cowards and crusaders."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Splat
2/4

Saving Silverman (2001)

Jeanne Aufmuth

Splat
2/4

Saw (2004)

"Showcases gratuitous gore and the ubiquitously macabre bells and whistles that pass themselves off as fear."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Splat
2.5/4

Say It Isn't So (2001)

"No topic is too sacred for the ferocious Farrellys."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Tomato
2.5/4

The Scarlet Letter (1995)

"Corny, heavy-handed, but definitely romantic, The Scarlet Letter is a mindless piece of historical amusement."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Splat
2/4

Scary Movie (2000)

"Make no mistake -- this one is lowbrow comedy all the way."

Christina Ziegler-McPherson

Splat
2/4

Scary Movie 3 (2003)

"Best way to ensure a film isn't taken too seriously? Cast Leslie Nielsen of Naked Gun fame as president of the United States. That'll do the trick."

Tyler Hanley

Tomato
3/4

The Scent of Green Papaya (1993)

Susan Tavernetti

Tomato
4/4

Schindler's List (1993)

D. S.

Splat
2/4

School for Scoundrels (2006)

"It feels like the filmmakers put Old School and Napoleon Dynamite into a cinematic blender and hit frappe in hopes of making a delicious shake. They ended up with a tasteless one."

Tyler Hanley

Tomato
3.5/4

School of Rock (2003)

"Funnyman Jack Black was born for this role – crisp, improvisational and brilliantly zany."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Splat
2.5/4

Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed (2004)

"A handful of juvenile jokes and overblown computer effects push Doo 2 into strictly kid-cinema territory."

Tyler Hanley

Splat
1/4

Scooby-Doo - The Movie (2002)

"Phony, computer-generated images packaged together with bad performances and distributed as joyless summer entertainment."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Splat
2/4

Scoop (2006)

"The sort of comic frippery that's wearing thin with age and repetition."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Splat
2.5/4

The Score (2001)

Susan Tavernetti

Splat
1.5/4

The Scorpion King (2002)

"Fans of The Rock should see this for his abundance of charisma, but fans of quality filmmaking should skip it for its lack of anything else."

Tyler Hanley

Splat
1/4

The Scout (1994)

"This is the laziest piece of work in the fall big-screen lineup so far."

Seabiscuit (2003)

"A saccharine valentine to America’s post-Depression era spirit that carries its earnest shine too far over the finish line."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Splat
2/4

Secondhand Lions (2003)

"Ridiculous scripting and a geeky, grating performance by the needy, too-old-for-this-role Osment sets the teeth on edge."

Susan Tavernetti

Tomato
4/4

Sense and Sensibility (1995)

"Enduring love, heartbreak, undying passion and bitter betrayal. What more could you ask from Jane Austen, and for that matter, from a film?"

Jeanne Aufmuth

Tomato
3/4

The Sentinel (2006)

"Gives a good name to the brand of cookie-cutter thriller that satisfies like no other."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Splat
'2.5/4'

Separate Lies (2005)

"A stiff-upper-lip melodrama that’s semi-spoiled by a disappointing bit of miscasting."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Splat
2/4

Seraphim Falls (2007)

"When it's all said and done this Western psychodrama is more dumbed-down than giddy-up."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Tomato
3.5/4

Serendipity (2001)

"...sheer romantic entertainment."

Jeanne Aufmuth

Splat
2/4

Serial Mom (1994)

"Neither satirically relevant nor shocking enough."

Neil Martin

Tomato
3.5/4

Series 7: The Contenders (2001)

"The charm of this fanatical spoof relies on heavy doses of nervous humor to support its outrageous action."

Jeanne Aufmuth
