Tomato
3/4

10 Items or Less (2006)

"This is a movie of such consummate good cheer that it's difficult to walk away without feeling happier than when it began."

Bruce Newman

Splat
2.5/4

The 11th Hour (2007)

"No matter what time it is in the grand, cosmic scheme of things, The 11th Hour arrives about a day late and an eco-dollar short of An Inconvenient Truth"

Bruce Newman

Splat
2.5/4

13 Going on 30 (2004)

"Subplots make the story feel labored, as if no one wanted to confront what it actually feels like to be a kid trapped in an adult's life."

Bruce Newman

Splat

The 13th Warrior (1999)

"It's little more than a shoddy string of action-movie cliches."

Splat
2/4

2 Fast 2 Furious (2003)

"2 Fast 2 Furious is frequently 2 fast 4 its own good, and only about 1/2 as furious as the last one. You do the math."

Bruce Newman

Tomato

2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

"Yup, you guessed it -- a religious experience."

Glenn Lovell

Tomato
3/4

2012 (2009)

"Preposterous? You bet. But 2012 delivers the disaster-movie goods better than any other popcorn movie we've seen since the '80s."

Randy Myers

Tomato
4/4

21 Grams (2003)

"This may be the most brilliantly made movie of the year. But you don't enjoy 21 Grams, you recover from it."

Bruce Newman

Tomato
4/4

25th Hour (2002)

"It's a long, complex, deeply flawed work -- and also quite possibly Lee's most ambitious and accusatory movie since Do the Right Thing in 1989."

Glenn Lovell

Tomato
3/4

28 Days Later (2003)

"This is the stuff of which night tremors are made."

Glenn Lovell

Splat

300 (2007)

"Unless you like human shish kabob, don't spring forward. Fall back."

Bruce Newman

Tomato
2.5/4

3:10 to Yuma (2007)

"This Yuma is Shane with a train."

Bruce Newman

Tomato
4/4

4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days (2008)

"4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 days feels like a kind of appendix -- and a bursting one at that -- to Krzysztof Kieslowski's Decalogue."

Bruce Newman

Splat
2/4

40 Days and 40 Nights (2002)

"Even [Hartnett] can't overcome the lameness of the movie's increasingly obvious attempts to make horniness seem funny."

Bruce Newman

Tomato
3/4

49 Up (2006)

"In the same way that none of us ever do turn out as expected, neither do they. And that's more or less the point of continuing the series, even as they drone on about their disappointing marriages and dashed dreams, just like the rest of us."

Bruce Newman

Tomato
2.5/4

50 First Dates (2004)

"50 First Dates is the perfect date movie, one that should appeal to teens into Sandler's mean-spirited shtick, while drawing coos and oohs from those traditionalists drawn to something softer and dreamier."

Glenn Lovell

Splat

54 (1998)

"This is so dull!"

Julie Hinds

Splat
2.5/4

8 Mile (2002)

"Unfortunately, 8 Mile does waste a lot of time dawdling over just about everything else ... until it finally begins to sputter at about the 6 mile mark."

Bruce Newman
