Tomato
2/5

Nacho Libre (2006)

"The only gag here, as far as I can tell, is Black squeezing himself into a pair of red tights and prancing around like a mental patient. Funny yes, but over the course of an hour and a half, it wears a wee thin."

Bill Muller

Tomato
3/5

Naked in Ashes (2005)

"Paula Fouce's documentary about several of these yogis gives us a kind of cinéma vérité peek into their lives as they perform their rituals and prepare for the great meeting, or Kumbh Mela, of yogis in Ujjain, held in 2003."

Richard Nilsen

Tomato
4.5/5

The Namesake (2007)

"This is a wonderful movie."

Randy Cordova

Tomato
3/5

Nancy Drew (2007)

"Nancy Drew is a lark but nothing more, asking little from the audience while it flits from scene to scene."

Bill Muller

Splat
3/5

The Nanny Diaries (2007)

"It sounds like the ultimate chick flick with crossover potential -- Scarlett Johansson learning a lot about life and a little about love in a film based on a cornerstone of chick lit -- but not even chicks will get much out of The Nanny Diaries."

Bill Goodykoontz

Splat
3/5

Nanny McPhee (2006)

"The fun is doled out in small portions and the film is so passive that younger kids will probably fidget in their seats."

Kathy Cano Murillo

Tomato
4/5

Napoleon Dynamite (2004)

"Has more belly laughs than 10 studio-produced, star-vehicle comedies."

Bill Muller

Splat
3/5

Narc (2002)

"In the end, the movie collapses on its shaky foundation despite the best efforts of director Joe Carnahan."

Bill Muller

Splat
1/5

National Lampoon's Van Wilder (2002)

"This movie, a certain scene in particular, brought me uncomfortably close to losing my lunch."

Bill Muller

Splat
2/5

National Security (2003)

"Someone has to save us from Lawrence's onslaught of cinematic dross."

Bill Muller

Splat
2/5

National Treasure (2004)

"Almost every scene in this generic action movie is ripped off from somewhere else."

Bill Muller

Tomato
3/5

National Treasure 2 : Book of Secrets (2007)

" Let's not kid anyone here. This franchise is all about dumb fun."

Bill Goodykoontz

Tomato
3.5/5

The Nativity Story (2006)

"The Nativity Story becomes the anti-Passion, a movie that makes a statement against violence rather than exploiting it."

Bill Muller

Tomato
4/5

Neil Young - Heart of Gold (2006)

"When it comes to pop-music icons, Neil Young is the full package."

Larry Rodgers

Never Again (2002)

Splat
1.5/5

Never Back Down (2008)

"With its thin characters and derivative plot, the finished product seems more like a marketing concept than an actual film."

Randy Cordova

Splat

Never Been Kissed (1999)

"A comedy of humiliation that mistakes bathos for humor."

Bob Fenster

Tomato
4/5

Never Been Thawed (2006)

"Essentially one long goof, but it's a well-executed goof and a pretty fearless one at that."

Bill Muller

Splat
1.5/5

Never Die Alone (2004)

"Never Die Alone is soft and squishy, lacking tension and suspense, not to mention logic."

Randy Cordova

Splat
1/5

New in Town (2009)

"New in Town is a perfectly dreadful movie. You end up really reaching if you try to pinpoint the film's redeeming qualities."

Randy Cordova

Splat
2.5/5

The New World (2005)

"There's a problem when the movie about the European conquest of America seems longer than the actual conquest itself."

Bill Muller

Tomato
3/5

New York Doll (2005)

"As the credits roll, New York Doll transforms from a puff piece about an aging rock star into a moving rumination on a man's final grasp for redemption."

Michael Senft

Splat
2/5

New York Minute (2004)

"It's generally good policy to be wary of entertainers who are more famous for their product lines than actually performing."

Bill Muller

Splat
2/5

Next Day Air (2009)

"The filmmakers behind Next Day Air probably have posters of Guy Ritchie and Quentin Tarantino lining their bedroom walls."

Randy Cordova

Nicholas Nickleby (2002)

Tomato
3.5/5

Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (2008)

"It comes up a little short of the classic it might have become, but it's still a knowing portrayal of young love lost and found."

Bill Goodykoontz

Tomato
3/5

Night at the Museum (2006)

"It's never too late to enjoy a little holiday fantasy, such as spending a Night at the Museum."

Bill Muller

Splat
3/5

Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian (2009)

"It's not a bad movie. Just an unnecessary one."

Bill Goodykoontz

Splat
2/5

The Night Listener (2006)

"The movie might make for a good book, but it's too awkward and lacks the necessary action for a film. And Williams' rather sluggish approach doesn't help much. Eventually, we just aren't interested in tagging along with him."

Bill Muller

Tomato
3/5

Night Watch (2005)

"The faux mythology may be cheesy, the grandiose plot stretched thin and full of holes, but underneath the recycled story and style is a hint of something troubling and real."

Kerry Lengel

Splat
1.5/5

Nights in Rodanthe (2008)

"There's nothing like a good tearjerker. Unfortunately, Nights in Rodanthe isn't a good tearjerker, although the characters on-screen shed tears and the movie is pretty jerky."

Randy Cordova

Tomato

Nim's Island (2008)

"Nim's Island is an old-fashioned kids' movie. Parents might find flaws, but the 12-and-younger set will find characters and a movie worth rooting for."

Bill Goodykoontz

Tomato
4/5

Nine Queens (2002)

"Driven by a plot that's so tightly wound, we cannot look away for wanting to know what will happen next and who is double-crossing whom."

Richard Nilsen

Splat
2/5

Ninja Assassin (2009)

"This movie may be filled with razor-sharp shuriken and katanas, but as far as the filmmaking goes, it's a blunt instrument."

Kerry Lengel

Tomato
4.5/5

No Country for Old Men (2007)

"Bardem's unnerving performance is the one that will stay with you."

Randy Cordova

Splat
3/5

No Reservations (2007)

"No amount of chemistry or comedy could make what's always bound to happen next seem any less predictable."

Ed Masley

Tomato
3.5/5

Nobel Son (2008)

"Although sometimes too self-consciously odd for its own good, the film is at times rollicking good fun, with Alan Rickman having a ball offending everyone within earshot as the brilliant, self-centered Eli Michaelson."

Bill Goodykoontz

Noëlle (2007)

Splat
1/5

Nola (2004)

"Combines a worn-out premise -- young woman leaves unhappy home for big city -- with some of the silliest characters ever to reach the screen."

Bill Muller

Splat
2.5/5

Norbit (2007)

"This gross comedy hardly seems like the best way to exploit Murphy's talents."

Randy Cordova

Splat
3/5

North Country (2005)

"North Country is a "message movie" with a target so big that it's impossible to miss, which is part of the trouble."

Bill Muller

Tomato
4/5

Northfork (2003)

"A compelling juxtaposition of the poignant and the bizarre, a movie that tosses moviemaking rules into the nearest Cuisinart."

Bill Muller

Nosey Parker (2003)

Tomato
3.5/5

The Notebook (2004)

"You can't write off The Notebook as just another tearjerker because the characters are brought to life in such elegant fashion."

Bill Muller

Tomato
3.5/4

Notes on a Scandal (2006)

"The movie serves as a convenient locale for Dench and Blanchett to showcase their abilities, but it could be more involving."

Bill Muller

Splat
3/5

Nothing Like the Holidays (2008)

"Nothing Like the Holidays is vaguely unsatisfying, caught somewhere in the middle between popcorn flick and serious cinema."

Kerry Lengel

Splat
2.5/5

Notorious (2009)

"If there's a guide book on how to create a standard rags-to-riches music biopic, the makers of Notorious must have memorized every page."

Randy Cordova

Splat
2/5

The Notorious Bettie Page (2006)

"It isn't a bad film, but it isn't a good film, either. Basically, it's a movie that doesn't have a good reason for having been made."

Richard Nilsen

Notorious C.H.O. The Movie (2002)

Tomato

Notting Hill (1999)

"Witty, sweet and genuine!"

Bob Fenster
