Tomato 3.5/4 |
Eastern Promises (2007) |
"Eastern Promises is a subtle and precisely calibrated work of astonishing cumulative power." |
Bruce Newman |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Eight Below (2006) |
"Following the success of last year's March of the Penguins, and now Eight Below -- an equally triumphal processional of dogs across the bottom of the world -- Cinema Antarctica is suddenly sizzling hot!" |
Bruce Newman |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Eight Legged Freaks (2002) |
"Good for a quick adrenaline surge -- until the next horror fix comes along." |
Glenn Lovell |
Tomato 3/4 |
Elektra (2005) |
"[Garner] is ... gloriously in gear, ready to kick some Hand." |
Bruce Newman |
Tomato 4/4 |
Elephant (2003) |
"Evasive and maddening? You bet. Brilliant, enlightening? That, too. From where I sit, it's the most important American movie of the year." |
Glenn Lovell |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Elf (2003) |
"It's a close call for a while, but at the last moment the movie finally soars." |
Bruce Newman |
Splat 2.5/4 |
Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007) |
"Every time the camera finally settles on Blanchett's regal cheekbones, it's a relief." |
Bruce Newman |
Tomato 3/4 |
Elling (2002) |
"Calls to mind the great screen pairings of dysfunctional buddy pictures of the past." |
Bruce Newman |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Embalmer (2003) |
"Here's a movie that could keep David Lynch tossing at night." |
Glenn Lovell |
Splat |
The Emperor's New Groove (2000) |
"Feels like some lame, focus-grouped attempt by a bunch of people who have grown hopelessly middle-aged to make themselves hip with the kids." |
Bruce Newman |
Splat |
End of Days (1999) |
"Hyams seems able to establish a rhythm and keep the sequence clear. It's when people talk that he tends to get into trouble." |
David L. Beck |
Tomato |
Enemy of the State (1998) |
"Totally satisfying!" |
Julie Hinds |
Splat 2/4 |
Enigma (2002) |
"Apted and Stoppard have bitten off too much as they attempt to juggle an espionage plot and parallel past/present romances." |
Glenn Lovell |
Tomato 3/4 |
Enough (2002) |
"It's his brazenness -- and Campbell's utterly creepy performance -- that keeps the story revved up, even when you feel it's being spelled out for you in Crayola." |
Bruce Newman |
Tomato 3/4 |
Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room (2005) |
"Americans love a good villain, and in Enron chairman Kenneth Lay, former CEO Jeffrey Skilling and CFO Andrew Fastow, the movie provides a perfect storm of scoundrels." |
Bruce Newman |
Splat |
Entrapment (1999) |
"A creaky star vehicle if there ever was one!" |
Julie Hinds |
Tomato |
Erin Brockovich (2000) |
"A stand-up-and-cheer crowd pleaser." |
Glenn Lovell |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) |
"At once heartfelt and hilarious, another Kaufman-esque mix of black comedy, shaggy-dog romance, retro sci-fi and metaphysics." |
Glenn Lovell |
Splat 2/4 |
Evan Almighty (2007) |
"Even the editing betrays a sense of desperation about the material. It's cut so tight that no one ever breathes, they just talk." |
Bruce Newman |
Tomato 2/4 |
Evelyn (2002) |
"Proves a pleasant enough way to while away a rainy afternoon." |
Glenn Lovell |
Splat |
Evolution (2001) |
"The movie itself, I'm sorry to report, is more devolution than evolution, a lazy lampoon that draws from grade-Z sci-fi and Reitman's own uproarious Ghostbusters." |
Glenn Lovell |
Splat |
Exit Wounds (2001) |
"Exit Wounds is really a succession of street fights, explosions, car chases and helicopter rescues in search of a plot." |
Glenn Lovell |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Exorcist: The Beginning (2004) |
"It rates fairly high on both the Scare-O-Meter and Gross-Out Scale, with an early hyena attack guaranteed to have you flinching in terror." |
Glenn Lovell |
Splat 2.5/4 |
The Experiment (2002) |
"At once simplistic and compelling in a trashy sort of way." |
Glenn Lovell |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Eye (2003) |
"Directors Oxide and Danny Pang build the film's tension incrementally in these scenes, never amping it up with special effects or orchestral accents." |
Bruce Newman |
