"The story hits too many notes we've heard before." |

Splat |
K-Pax (2001) |
"K-Pax often feels redundant and unsatisfying, like a cinematic version of one of those Reader's Digest condensed books." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Kandahar (2001) |
"Although it's unevenly acted, Kandahar is a devastating film." |

Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Splat 1/4 |
Keeping Up With The Steins (2006) |
"There are no laughs in Keeping Up with The Steins, which is problematic, since it appears to think it's a comedy." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kekexeli: Mountain Patrol (2006) |
"It's an absurdist, quixotic and sloooow journey that leads our heroes to the banal face of evil." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kicking and Screaming (2005) |
"Kicking and Screaming manages the difficult job of being a family comedy that will appeal equally to children and their elders." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Kid Stays in the Picture (2002) |
"A stylish, be-boppy portrait of a true individual with his own, invented vocabulary ... and his own, semi-invented take on the events of his life." |

Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004) |

The King (2006) |
"A strange, disturbing movie that will appeal to you if you like to leave the theater with lots of questions to mull over." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |

King Arthur (2004) |
"It's both drabber and less illuminating than the tales that have come before." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |

"Peter Jackson's new movie is the king of Kongs." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
The King Of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (2007) |
"The King of Kong is a twisty, wildly entertaining film, and this comes to you from a guy who cares so little about Kong that he had to Google it to make sure it's correct to refer to it as a video game." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 3/4 |
King Of The Corner (2005) |

Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
The Kingdom (2007) |
"From a moviemaking point of view, The Kingdom is close to flawless, a model of bluntly efficient story-telling." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Kingdom of Heaven (2005) |
"Kingdom of Heaven is a huge movie, but it's an unusually restrained one." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kinky Boots (2006) |
"Kinky Boots has a message (as Lola puts it, 'Change your mind about someone'), but its characters don't seem guided by the movie's desire to teach us something." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 4/4 |
Kinsey (2004) |
"A compassionate, moving and witty film." |

Kiss of the Dragon (2001) |
"If you don't like movies that mean to make us gasp at the outrageousness of the violence, you'll hate Kiss of the Dragon." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 3/4 |
Kissing Jessica Stein (2002) |
"The people in Jessica are so recognizable and true that, as in real life, we're never sure how things will work out." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Kit Kittredge: An American Girl (2008) |

Kitchen Stories (2004) |
"Almost perfect, a film about loneliness that makes you feel less alone." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 3/4 |
Km. 0 (2003) |
"Because so many people are involved, most of them are stock characters ... but they are indelibly written and acted, and there isn't a person in this movie you won't like." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |

A Knight's Tale (2001) |
"Feels like a bunch of boys fooling around." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |

Knockaround Guys (2002) |
"It's not a thriller, it's not a comedy, it's not a family drama, and the biggest thing it's not is entertaining." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 3/4 |
Knocked Up (2007) |
"Yes, it's often gross and even more often funny, but it also gets at what it might really be like to be in your 20s and to feel that, to paraphrase Britney Spears, you're not a kid and not yet an adult." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Knowing (2009) |
"Knowing is a Sweet 'n' Low movie: It's good most of the way, but the aftertaste lingers unpleasantly." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |

Kontroll (2005) |
"Kontroll throws beaucoup intriguing mysteries at us, but the solutions aren't worth the trip." |

Kung Fu Panda (2008) |
"The jokey title sells this clever, old-fashioned film short." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
Splat 2/4 |
Kurt Cobain About a Son (2007) |
"Many of the images aren't particularly compelling and neither, frankly, are Cobain's comments, which range from dull anti-press diatribes to familiar stories about the musical influence of his Aunt Mary to inarticulate blather." |
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul) |
