Tomato A- |
O (2001) |
"It is a powerful film, and a real one, making the case that even without the Olde English, Shakespeare's plots don't go stale." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B |
O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000) |
"O Brother, Where Art Thou? is the Being John Malkovich of the year 2000. The most remarkable thing about it is just how any sane studio executive agreed to back it." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B |
Ocean's Eleven (2001) |
"It's more of a novelty item than a film, really, and most of the fun comes from seeing just about all of Hollywood's most well-known faces show up in the span of two hours." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B+ |
Ocean's Twelve (2004) |
"Pure arrogance, taking its predecessor's success as license to do absolutely, unquestionably whatever the hell it wants." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato 9/10 |
October Sky (1999) |
"A truly uplifting, heartwarming motion picture!" |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat 6/10 |
Office Space (1999) |
"As dull as the cubicle work that it's about!" |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat C+ |
Old School (2003) |
"Old School is a frustrating movie, a comedy that seems to aim for vulgar, ludicrous heights and then hedges its bets." |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat C+ |
The Omen (2006) |
"Having been art directed to within an inch of its life, it has an oppressive gloss that substitutes for the original film's energy." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B |
Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003) |
"As he has done in each of his films, the multitasking auteur gets jaw-droppingly bizarre performances from a host of prestigious and established actors" |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B+ |
One Hour Photo (2002) |
"An unsettling portrait of loneliness and deep despair." |

One Missed Call (2008) |
"For a film like One Missed Call to be frightening or good would have required far more art and intelligence than this shoddy little production could possibly muster." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato A- |
One Night at McCool's (2001) |
"I remember watching the opening scenes with an air of indifference, and I remember watching the climax very nearly in hysterics." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B+ |
One True Thing (1998) |
"One of those rare films -- a movie that is genuinely sad and moving without being melodramatic, sentimental or hokey." |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat C+ |
Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior (2005) |
"I have the feeling we'll be hearing from Tony Jaa again." |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat C+ |
Open Range (2003) |
"There's a good movie in here, but it's beat into submission by Costner execution." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato A- |
Open Water (2004) |
"Whether or not anyone enjoys it, few will fail to describe it as a 'nailbiter.' That it certainly is." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B- |
The Order (2003) |
"Give me Aramaic runes and whispered chanting on the soundtrack, and I'm pretty much yours for the evening." |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat C+ |
The Original Kings of Comedy (2000) |
"Are they funny? Most of the time. But the humor, passing itself off as insightful social commentary, rarely rises above simple stereotypes." |
Eugene Novikov |
Splat C |
Original Sin (2001) |
"While itis sultry, steamy and shameless, it is not, unfortunately, really good." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B |
Orphan (2009) |
"The most committed, downright unpleasant child-from-hell movie imaginable. It makes The Good Son play like Pollyanna." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B |
Osama (2003) |
"Whatever you thought were the atrocities committed by the Taliban, Siddiq Barmak wants you to know that the reality is probably worse." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B+ |
The Other Boleyn Girl (2008) |
"It's a straightforward, unpretentious joy, and one of the most purely enjoyable films I've seen in some time." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato A- |
The Others (2001) |
"Like the best ghost stories, it's frightening because of what you don't see; suspenseful because we anticipate disaster, not because it has struck." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B |
Out of Sight (1998) |
"It's amusing, entertaining and intriguing, even though the second half is shaky, as the film makes a seemingly uncomfortable transition into more serious material." |
Eugene Novikov |
Tomato B |
Out of Time (2003) |
"Knows how to have fun, and isn't afraid of breaking some plausibility rules to do it." |

"I can digest a certain amount of importance-of-family sap, but I expect something in return." |
