I Am David (2004)

"He knows there's so much drama and emotion in the story, it doesn't need schmaltzy dialogue or actors begging us to cry."

I Am Sam (2002)

"The movie sentimentalizes Sam, showing what's adorable about him but not how he might also be exasperating."

I Dreamed of Africa (2000)

"The rambling narrative has no point, except to neaten up the details of -- and eliminate everything interesting in -- Kuki's life."

I Know Who Killed Me (2007)

"A choppy, cheap-looking mess with awkward dialogue and huge gaps in the plot."

I Love You, Man (2009)

"It may not be the freshest comedy, but it has the year's biggest laughs."

I Served the King of England (2008)

"There's a mystical quality to King of England, a political satire that softens its barbs by locating them in the middle of a fable."

I Think I Love My Wife (2007)

"There's an undercurrent of misogyny in Wife, which is odd, since it ultimately wants to be a celebration of marital happiness."

I'm Not Scared (2004)

"A small movie but, like the thematically similar To Kill a Mockingbird, it leaves with you a sense of children's vulnerability and their incredible resilience."

I've Loved You So Long (2008)

"Claudel's Juliette is one of the year's great movie characters, and she has earned the right to keep some things just for herself."

I.O.U.S.A. (2008)

"The message is fine, but the movie is not."

Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs (2009)

"There are so many confusing things about the title, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, that your best bet is to forget it and enjoy."

The Ice Harvest (2005)

"The movie builds some suspense around our curiosity about the theft, but we don't know enough about anything to get involved."

Identity (2003)

"You walk out of the theater feeling you've been duped but that they did it fair and square."

Igby Goes Down (2002)

"It suffers from Culkin's monotonous performance, which does not inspire sympathy or interest."

The Illusionist (2006)

"I don't even like magic, but the film imbues Norton's tricks with so much emotion and wonder that they become something more than tricks; they're more like expressions of the character's damaged psyche."

Imagine Me & You (2006)

"I really like the people in Imagine Me and You, but I can't stand the movie they're stuck in."

Importance of Being Earnest (2002)

"Parker probably thinks he's shaking up a classic the way Kenneth Branagh and Baz Luhrmann have, but this half-hearted messing-about just makes us miss Wilde's still-contemporary play."

In America (2003)

"In America is a too-tidy movie about a very untidy subject (families), and it is rescued by the untidiest of things: children."

In Her Shoes (2005)

"In Her Shoes has enough homespun wisdom to make you hurl, but the tone and acting are so sharp, it never feels like a sit-down with Dr. Phil."

In Praise of Love (2001)

"An unsuccessful attempt at a movie of ideas."

In Search of Mozart (2006)

"Dry, repetitive and didactic."

In the Land of Women (2007)

"Kasdan has talent and intelligence, but he hasn't quite figured out how to tackle this story."

In the Valley of Elah (2007)

"It's not just that Haggis has cast fine actors, but that he has created a mood and pace that makes the actors, the story and the themes of the film mesh."
