Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (2007) |
"John C. Reilly is not anyone's idea of a leading man (which is part of the spoof, people)." |

Splat 6/10 |
Walking Tall (2004) |
"To compare it to the original version is practically laughable. Even the names have changed (c'mon, man - Buford Pusser is, like, the Snake Plissken of the '70s!)." |
Jon Popick |
Tomato 8/10 |
War of the Worlds (2005) |

Warm Water Under a Red Bridge (2001) |

Jon Popick |
Splat 6/10 |
The Way Home (2002) |
"So saccharine, I'm not sure I'd be able to take it under normal conditions." |
Jon Popick |
Tomato |
The Way of the Gun (2000) |
"Wildly derivative and painfully uneven, but The Way of the Gun is still an extremely stylish crime flick that is a lot more entertaining and original than most big Hollywood action films released this summer." |
Jon Popick |
Tomato 6/10 |
Way Off Broadway (2004) |
"An interesting look at failure, redemption and peer support." |
Jon Popick |

"Four blistering lead performances" |
Jon Popick |
Splat 5/10 |
We Own The Night (2007) |
"Instead of playing to the strength of its leads, the script almost seems to highlight their weaknesses (in other words, you don't see Wahlberg's abs once)." |
Jon Popick |
Tomato 6/10 |
We Were Soldiers (2002) |
"A decent war film whose biggest strength is its telling of an important story with which the public is not entirely familiar." |

Wet Hot American Summer (2001) |
"The funniest cinematic camp experience since Pugsley and Wednesday freaked everyone out with their rendition of the first Thanksgiving in "Addams Family Values."" |
Jon Popick |
Tomato 9/10 |
Whale Rider (2003) |

When Will I Be Loved (2004) |
"Plays like a film made by an aging writer-director who is still trying to prove he’s hip. Instead, it comes off as Larry Clark-Lite®." |

Jon Popick |
Tomato 8/10 |
Where's Poppa? (1970) |
"It's a shame, but you'd never be able to make a film like Where's Poppa? in today's stifling climate of uptight political correctness." |

White Oleander (2002) |
"Like the eponymous flower, Pfeiffer's Ingrid is beautiful and deadly, generating enough poison to be remembered at Oscar time." |

Willard (2003) |
"Even from just its unusual opening credits and accompanying Elfmanesque music, it's pretty clear Willard is the film Tim Burton should have made after Ed Wood." |

The Wind That Shakes the Barley (2007) |
