G-Force (2009) |
"G-Force is being shown in both 2-D and digital 3-D formats. I saw it in 2-D, and that's the preferred format because it's one less dimension for the movie to suck in." |

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009) |
"I don't mind if something blows up every five minutes so long as I'm given a reason to care why something is blowing up every five minutes." |

Tomato 4/4 |
Gangs of New York (2002) |
"Scorsese's film is a real epic, and it's clear that the director has a passion for the subject." |

Garden State (2004) |
"Zach Braff should promptly quit his TV show and devote himself to making movies full-time." |

George A. Romero's Land of the Dead (2005) |
"Romero has made a movie that will completely satisfy the Fangoria magazine crowd but, like his previous efforts, also manages to make acute observations about modern society." |
Mike McGranaghan |
Splat 2.5/4 |
Georgia Rule (2007) |
"There is enough to admire here that you may agree it's worth a look. At the same time, the film doesn't emotionally satisfy as strongly as it should. One thing's clear though: this is Lohan's picture, and she walks away with it." |

Get Over It (2001) |
"Here's a fundamental rule of filmmaking: if you need to rely on a dog humping everything in sight to get laughs, you are not making a good movie." |

Tomato 3/4 |
Get Rich or Die Tryin' (2005) |
"Director [Jim Sheridan] was a good choice: he understands the story’s theme and he captures the gritty feel of [50's] world without ever falling into exploitation." |

Tomato 3.5/4 |
Get Smart (2008) |
"Get Smart is an example of getting the right actors and taking the right approach...It gave me one of the most fun times I've had at the movies all year." |

Tomato 2.5/4 |
Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd Out of Control (2007) |
"It doesn't necessarily stand alone, although if you saw Get Smart and liked the Bruce and Lloyd characters, then you can get a certain level of enjoyment out of their pseudo-sequel." |
Mike McGranaghan |

Ghost Rider (2007) |
"Only when the flaming skeleton strides his fiery bike does the film hit high gear which, admittedly, is often enough to make this a passably diverting two hours." |

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past (2009) |
"Ideally, you want to see the male and female leads end up together in a romantic comedy; if not, it all starts to become kind of creepy." |

Ghosts of the Abyss (2003) |
"The Titanic has a haunting beauty that is served well by the movie's 3-dimensional process." |

Gigli (2003) |

Glory Road (2006) |

Gone Baby Gone (2007) |

The Good Girl (2002) |
"Jennifer Aniston removes her Hollywood glamour to convincingly play a drab Texas cashier teetering on the edge of depression. It's one of the best performances of the year." |

Good Night. And, Good Luck (2005) |
"While the harmfulness of McCarthyism is a significant part of the film, it approaches the subject by examining the power of the media." |

The Good Shepherd (2006) |
"The Good Shepherd feels authentic because it keeps everything on a human scale. There's no mythologizing the agency; there's just a solid depiction of how it was shaped by human beings." |
