The Eel (1997)

"Just when it seems like 'The Eel' is going to settle into a standard love-conquers-fear tale, the writers begin coloring in the characters, revealing their secrets and insecurities. The results are sometimes shocking and sometimes funny..."

Eight Legged Freaks (2002)

"Pulling off a big-budget spoof requires a certain amount of style and wittiness, qualities conspicuously absent from 'Freaks.'"

Elizabethtown (2005)

"the more the movie screams, 'love me!' the more resistible it becomes. ...the shorter version is not an improvement: It's just less of the same."

The Emperor's New Groove (2000)

"...a lunatic tone far more reminiscent of the work of legendary animation madman Tex Avery than it is of such recent stately Disney offerings as "Mulan." Behind that awful title lurks a frequently hilarious little film."

The End of the Affair (1999)

"a demanding, thought-provoking film ...built around a theme many will find difficult to accept, that miracles can happen to perfectly ordinary, non-religious people."

End of the Spear (2006)

"effectively shows how, through gentility and a spirit of cooperation, two very different cultures can learn to co-exist. That's a worthy message that has a particular relevance in today's world."

Enemy at the Gates (2001)

"Although "Enemy" is a huge production, with burning cityscapes, hundreds of extras and uncommonly vivid period detail, Annaud's combination of stark realism and contrived romance doesn't always jell"

Enough (2002)

"The movie's biggest shocks come from seeing former nymphette Juliette Lewis playing a salt-of-the-earth mommy named Minnie and watching Slim travel incognito in a ridiculous wig no respectable Halloween costume shop would ever try to sell."

Equinox (1993)

"Typically twisted Rudolph, with a great cast"

Erik the Viking (1989)

"it evaporates quickly from the memory"

Escanaba in Da Moonlight (2000)

"The performances are zesty and consistently enjoyable, with everyone having a high old time speaking in an accent as thick and heavy as a slab of Mackinac Island fudge."

Evan Almighty (2007)

"Feeling nostalgic about those 'Oh, God' movies that George Burns made 30-odd years ago? Then 'Evan Almighty' might seem like manna from heaven."

The Evening Star (1996)

"A sequel no one wanted, done about as poorly as possible"

Ever After: A Cinderella Story (1998)

"The real magic is found in Andrew Dunn's stunningly lovely photography, which makes every scene look like a vintage storybook illustration."

Evolution (2001)

"While "Evolution" is generally fun to watch -- it would be a perfect choice for a Saturday afternoon when you feel like shifting your brain into low gear -- it's not nearly the joyride the filmmakers obviously wanted so badly for it to be."

Excess Baggage (1997)

"a series of flaccid, go-nowhere scenes featuring a sullen Silverstone and the inarticulate Benicio Del Toro..."

The Exorcist: The Version You've Never Seen (2000)

"If you want to know what the 1970s were all about, this is probably required viewing. ...frankly, a reissue of "Earthquake" in Sensurround would have been a lot more fun."

The Eye Creatures (1965)

""watch it with eyes wide shut""

Eye of the Beholder (1999)

"If you took five different jigsaw puzzles, threw the pieces together on a table top and spent two hours trying to make a cohesive picture, you might end up with something along the lines of this."
