Galaxy Quest (1999) |
"An affectionate, riotously funny parody that freely takes jabs at various elements of its subject but never seems mean-spirited or malintentioned." |
Eugene Novikov |

Games People Play: New York (2004) |
"A curious thing: a reality game show that plays us." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B |
Gangs of New York (2002) |
"One of the darkest visions of humanity I have ever seen." |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat C |
Garden State (2004) |
"A simplistic and insincere character piece with elements of smug comedy." |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat D+ |
Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties (2006) |
"The old convention says that a critic should judge a film in relation to what it sets out to achieve. But there must be a point where a film sets out to achieve so little that the guideline ceases to be useful." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B |
Gattaca (1997) |
"A well-directed, visually stunning morally complex tale. There is no gene for a good movie." |

Gerry (2003) |
"A rich, challenging mood piece that may not cohere thematically but takes us on a compelling, unique journey." |

Get Over It (2001) |
"The movie is short, watchable, and altogether serviceable. But
that's not enough." |
Eugene Novikov |

Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai (1999) |
"I can scarcely think of ways to improve this engrossing, original, near-brilliant production." |

Ghost Ship (2002) |
"If it doesn't reach the level of awfulness embodied by 13 Ghosts, it gets pretty close." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B- |
Ghost Town (2008) |
"Some of the moving parts squeak, especially toward the end. But it's still largely a pleasure." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato A |
Ghost World (2001) |
"The better, unpretentious version of The Catcher in the Rye that Salinger never wrote." |

Gigli (2003) |
"The suspense is not so much whether they will have sex and/or fall in love, but how the script will get around the lesbian angle to get to it." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B |
The Girl Next Door (2004) |
"It says a lot that while I spent the entire running time staring at Elisha Cuthbert, I still noticed an amazing performance by Emile Hirsch." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B |
Girl with a Pearl Earring (2003) |
"We talk pejoratively of films being soporific, but this one sort of lulls you into a restful complacency." |

Glory Road (2006) |
"This film fails not because it is conventional, but because it is lazy and dumb -- unworthy of its subject matter." |

God Grew Tired of Us (2007) |
"The importance of the material and Quinn's approach to it allow God Grew Tired of Us to transcend its pedestrian cinematic virtues." |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat C |
Gods and Generals (2003) |
"I would just like to mention something to director Ronald F. Maxwell, parenthetically and completely as an aside: the South lost." |

Godsend (2004) |

The Golden Compass (2007) |
"The problem is not that The Golden Compass has been stripped of its rabble-rousing anti-Christian content, though it surely has been. The problem is that the rest of it has been sterilized too." |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat C |
Gone in 60 Seconds (2000) |
"Maybe more Angelina Jolie would have helped." |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat C+ |
Good Boy! (2003) |
"The high concept almost guarantees complete awfulness. In the face of such overwhelming odds most films would give up, but Good Boy! goes down fighting." |
Eugene Novikov |

The Good Girl (2002) |
"I liked individual moments in The Good Girl, but it takes an illogical approach to its storyline." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B- |
Good Night. And, Good Luck (2005) |
"George Clooney's sophomore directorial effort comes off as authentic but awfully thin and uneventful." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B- |
The Good Thief (2003) |
"The Good Thief is spry, quirky, morose, entertaining, tedious, slow, loose and quotable. In a word: it's uneven." |

A Good Woman (2005) |
"It's brief, frivolous, and extremely entertaining even as some of it seems forced, and the film lacks the elegance of Wilde's wordplay." |

Gothika (2003) |
"Great acting, stylish cinematography, nifty scares; too bad the story makes absolutely no sense, leaving an unprecedented amount of "but wait, how did.." questions unanswered." |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat F |
Grandma's Boy (2006) |
"There is no movie. There is only the fact that Adam Sandler has cronies, and Adam Sandler gets what he wants." |
Eugene Novikov |

Gray Matters (2007) |
"In cheerfully embracing the sitcom's limitations, Kramer resigns her film to a sort of amiable mediocrity." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B- |
The Great Debaters (2007) |
"It goes down easy, has some great scenes, and knows how to tug on the heartstrings. But unlike its characters, it settles for less." |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat C |
The Great Raid (2005) |
"As the movie shuffles along the plotlines, the momentum drains to zero." |

The Grey Zone (2002) |
"If this story must be told and retold -- and indeed it must -- then The Grey Zone is to be lauded for finding a new and ingenious angle." |

Grimm (2003) |
"Doesn't toy with the concept nearly enough for my tastes, content to be a vaguely quirky dark comedy." |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat C- |
Grind (2003) |
"Will mostly be remembered as the wasted first starring role in the hopefully lengthy career of the very, very talented Adam Brody." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B |
Grizzly Man (2005) |
"Notable for its depiction of nature as alien and unforgiving, frightening in its cold majesty." |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat C- |
The Grudge (2004) |
"It's like a demo reel for Shimizu, who may be a competent technical craftsman but doesn't show even so much as a desire to tell a story." |

The Guardian (2006) |
"Begins as the sort of glossy, well-made Hollywood movie I usually like, and by the end reaches supreme heights of silliness." |

Guess Who (2005) |
"It's funny enough, and surprisingly well-written in individual scenes, but why, in the end, does it strive for so little?" |
