Tomato

K-19: The Widowmaker (2002)

"a largely compelling, suspenseful adventure that is almost torpedoed by a coda that's both drawn-out and completely unnecessary."

James Sanford

Splat
1/5

K-9 (1989)

"Surprise! It's a real dog"

James Sanford

Splat

K-Pax (2001)

"wants very badly to be liked and is willing to do just about anything to win your affection. This is the latest addition to the growing library of films that see mental illness not as a serious problem, but instead as a charming eccentricity."

James Sanford

Tomato

Kalamazoo? (2006)

"Whether they're munching donuts at Sweetwater's Donut Mill or quaffing Amber Ales at Bell's Eccentric Cafe, the actresses have an easy rapport and are entirely believable as old friends."

James Sanford

Splat

Kangaroo Jack (2003)

"Two kinds of movies are released in January: would-be Oscar contenders that opened in a few major cities in December, and botched films that were too expensive to send straight to video. Guess which category 'Kangaroo Jack' falls into?"

James Sanford

Splat
1/5

The Karate Kid Part 2 (1986)

"Typically dismal sequel, made strictly for the money"

James Sanford

Tomato

Kate and Leopold (2001)

"There's nothing particularly earth-shaking about the movie, but Ryan, Jackman, Schreiber and Breckin Meyer do their best to make the two hours bright and breezy."

James Sanford

Tomato

Keeping the Faith (2000)

"a cheerful, endearing ode to friendship and the magic of Manhattan. An admirer of Woody Allen, Norton has made his own 'Annie Hall' here, and if the homage isn't the equal of the original, so what? It's entertaining nevertheless."

James Sanford

Splat

Keeping Up With The Steins (2006)

"a sometimes charming, completely predictable comedy that might be the pilot episode for a TV series you will forget to watch every week."

James Sanford

Tomato
3/5

Kicking & Screaming (1995)

"One of the better navel-gazing comedies of this period"

James Sanford

Splat

Kicking and Screaming (2005)

"a mostly flat-footed comedy (that) also incorporates liberal doses of the slapsticky-sentimental hogwash that was once Jerry Lewis' calling card."

James Sanford

Splat

Kids in America (2005)

"occasionally approaches a provocative topic... only to scurry back into the safety zone of slapstick and put-downs."

James Sanford

Tomato
3.5/4

Kill Bill Vol. 1 (2003)

"Even when geysers of gore are erupting onscreen, Tarantino finds a strange kind of grace amidst the chaos. He's cherishing every carefully calculated second of this experience and he wants to share the joy with his viewers."

James Sanford

Tomato
4/4

Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004)

"the tension Carradine and Thurman generate in the pivotal scene, as bloodlust collides with memories of happier days, is utterly riveting. "

James Sanford

Tomato
3/5

Killer Klowns From Outer Space (1988)

"Warped fun with memorably weird ideas, effects and costumes"

James Sanford

Tomato
4/5

The Killing Fields (1984)

""unforgettable and unshakable""

James Sanford

Tomato
4/5

King and I (1956)

"Lovely filming of a classic Rodgers and Hammerstein show"

James Sanford

Tomato

King Arthur (2004)

"populated by characters who are frequently spattered with mud or caked in grime... Rarely have the Dark Ages seemed quite so dark."

James Sanford

Splat
1/5

King Kong (1976)

"Awful in nearly every respect; stick with the original!"

James Sanford

Tomato
3.5/4

King Kong (2005)

"While Jackson's 'Kong' may not be a great film, it offers plenty of good fun, and few moviegoers will leave the theater griping that they didn't get their money's worth."

James Sanford

Splat
0/5

King Kong Vs. Godzilla (1963)

"and the loser is: anyone who watches the fight"

James Sanford

Tomato
5/5

The King of Comedy (1982)

""twisted, scary satire that was far ahead of its time""

James Sanford

Tomato
5/5

King Solomon's Mines (1950)

"A real treasure, and not shown often enough these days"

James Sanford

Splat

King's Ransom (2005)

"If Anderson can land the role of a corporate shark who's surrounded by hot babes, it's conceivable we could soon see Jennifer Lopez as the lead in 'Memoirs of a Geisha'..."

James Sanford

Tomato

Kingdom of Heaven (2005)

"a sad reminder that the distrust, misunderstandings and misconceptions that have marred relations between the Eastern and Western worlds are nothing new..."

James Sanford

Tomato
4/4

Kinsey (2004)

"As both a screenwriter and a director, Condon does a first-rate job of making potentially difficult subject matter accessible without rendering it bland."

James Sanford

Tomato
3/4

Kiss Me, Stupid (1964)

"What separates 'Stupid' from so many of the so-called 'sex comedies' of the period is its combination of cynicism and directness. Beneath the teasing and the titillation there are some genuinely provocative themes..."

James Sanford

Tomato
4/5

Kiss of Death (1947)

"Vicious, still shocking crime drama"

James Sanford

Tomato
4/5

Kiss of Death (1995)

"Unjustly overlooked thriller packs a punch"

James Sanford

Tomato

Kissing a Fool (1998)

"succeeds both as a look at the competitiveness lurking underneath many friendships and as an offbeat romantic comedy that allows Schwimmer to convincingly play against type."

James Sanford

Tomato
5/5

Klute (1971)

"Fonda's riveting performance is impossible to shake"

James Sanford

Tomato

A Knight's Tale (2001)

"a rousing Cinderella story that cannily combines boisterous comedy, blood-pumping combat scenes and a generous portion of class-crossing romance."

James Sanford

Splat

Knock Off (1998)

"Much of Steven E. De Souza's script sounds like it was run through one of those erratic language translation programs... 'If he knew it was a nanobomb, he wouldn't be carrying it around like a cough drop' is one of the more memorable lines of dialogue."

James Sanford

Tomato
3.5/4

Knocked Up (2007)

"an (almost) across-the-board crowd-pleaser. There's a reasonable amount of risque humor to pacify those who love gross-out gags and enough of a love story to satisfy viewers looking for a good romance."

James Sanford

Tomato
4/5

Koyaanisqatsi: Life Out of Balance (1983)

"Unique and fascinating; great Philip Glass score"

James Sanford

Splat

Krippendorf's Tribe (1998)

"in terms of raunchiness and innuendo, 'Tribe' turns out to be almost as ribald as an 'Inside Edition' report on Monica Lewinsky. Jokes about menstruation, circumcision, penis size and prehistorical marital aids are sprinkled liberally throughout..."

James Sanford

Splat
1/5

Krull (1983)

"Pretty dumb, although the glass spider is cool..."

James Sanford

Splat
2/5

Kurt and Courtney (1997)

"Unsatisfying investigation of a sad story"

James Sanford
