The R.M. (2003)

Tomato
4/5

Rabbit-Proof Fence (2002)

"Many movies claim to illuminate the human spirit, but Rabbit-Proof Fence actually delivers."

Bill Muller

Race To Space (2000)

Tomato
3/5

Race to Witch Mountain (2009)

"It's a pleasant-enough diversion. Who knows, maybe the sequel will improve on this. Because from the looks of things at the end, there's bound to be one."

Bill Goodykoontz

Tomato
4.5/5

Rachel Getting Married (2008)

"With a powerhouse performance in Rachel Getting Married, Anne Hathaway slams shut the book on princess diaries and such with authority."

Bill Goodykoontz

Tomato
3/5

Racing Stripes (2005)

"It's all familiar and unsurprising, but not without its modest pleasures."

Randy Cordova

Splat
3/5

Radio (2003)

"For some, the fine performances, combined with upbeat themes, will make Radio worth watching. But as a film, Radio manipulates more than it illuminates."

Bill Muller

Rain (2002)

Splat
1/5

Raise Your Voice (2004)

"Bad in so many departments that pointing out the flaws is like shooting fish in a barrel."

Randy Cordova

Splat
3/5

Raising Helen (2004)

"As much as we want to wrap our hearts around this wannabe uplifting tearjerker, it's just too shallow to embrace."

Kathy Cano Murillo

Tomato
4/5

Raising Victor Vargas (2003)

"The film offers a realistic and funny slice of life."

Kathy Cano Murillo

Splat
2/5

Rambo (2008)

"It's confusing. Rambo makes you root for the wrong things."

Bill Goodykoontz

Tomato
3.5/5

The Rape Of Europa (2007)

"It's long for a documentary, almost two hours, but it has a big story to tell."

Richard Nilsen

Tomato
4.5/5

Ratatouille (2007)

"Like the burbling soup that plays a key part in Ratatouille, the movie is a delectable blend of ingredients that tickles the palette and leaves you hungry for more."

Bill Muller

Tomato
5/5

Ray (2004)

"Making a movie about anyone's life requires a director to make choices, and Hackford wasn't trying for a painstaking re-creation. Instead, he chose to focus -- like Charles himself -- on the soul."

Bill Muller

-

Read My Lips (2002)

Click here to see the review.

Tomato
3.5/5

The Reader (2008)

"Winslet is outstanding, particularly given that Hanna is such an unsympathetic character. We never quite feel sympathy toward her, and it's testament to Winslet's skill and confidence that she never really asks us to."

Bill Goodykoontz

Splat
2/5

The Real Cancun (2003)

"Spring break is meant to be wild and self-serving, packed with embarrassing, even shocking, memories. But when six camera crews follow every step of it -- 'Dude, too much information!'"

Kathy Cano Murillo

Tomato

Real Women Have Curves (2002)

"Given its winning story line and a terrific performance by newcomer America Ferrera in the lead, Real Women Have Curves could become the next My Big Fat Greek Wedding."

Bill Muller

Splat
2/5

Rebound (2005)

"There's nothing terribly wrong with Rebound, nor is there anything worth watching if you've seen The Bad News Bears and its various incarnations."

Scott Craven

Tomato
3.5/5

The Reckoning (2004)

"After a first hour slowed by exposition and a good deal of extraneous subplot development, the story catches fire in the second hour and keeps you engrossed."

Richard Nilsen

-

Reconstruction (2004)

Splat
3/5

The Recruit (2003)

"In this tepid spy thriller, everything is pretty much what you would expect."

Bill Muller

-

Red Dragon (2002)

Splat

Red Dragon (2002)

"Director Brett Ratner, purveyor of the Rush Hour movies, exhibits neither the skill nor the patience to turn this remake into a memorable film. It's adequate but unsatisfying, a middling affair that neither dazzles nor particularly frightens."

Bill Muller

Tomato
3.5/5

Red Eye (2005)

"It's encouraging that Craven cast two relative newcomers who are excited about being in the film, rather than stale stars earning a paycheck."

Bill Muller

Tomato
3.5/5

Redbelt (2008)

"Before it sort of punches itself out in the final few minutes, it's a surprisingly compelling story about honor and betrayal."

Bill Goodykoontz

-

Reign of Fire (2002)

Click here to see the review.

Tomato
4/5

Reign Over Me (2007)

"Although all the talk is about Sandler's performance, Cheadle's is every bit as good. He has a much tougher job, playing straight man to Sandler's semicraziness."

Bill Muller

Tomato
3/5

Religulous (2008)

"Really funny and well-made."

Bill Goodykoontz

Splat
3/5

Reno 911!: Miami (2007)

"Broken up into four episodes of the television show, who knows, this might be a masterpiece. Seen at one sitting, it falls well short of that. Not for lack of trying. More for trying a little too hard."

Bill Goodykoontz

Tomato
4/4

Rent (2005)

"If Rent works -- and most of the time, it does so flawlessly -- it is because it remains Rent."

Kyle Lawson

Tomato
4/4

Rent (2005)

"If Rent works -- and most of the time, it does so flawlessly -- it is because it remains Rent."

Kyle Lawson

Tomato
4/5

Reprise (2008)

"If you are young, male and dream of making a name for yourself in the arts, Reprise is about the joys and sufferings of that quest: It is a Jules and Jim for the punk-rock generation."

Richard Nilsen

Tomato
5/5

Rescue Dawn (2007)

"... everything about Rescue Dawn feels real ..."

Randy Cordova

Splat
2/5

Reservation Road (2007)

"An exercise in frustration and wasted opportunities."

Bill Goodykoontz

Resident Evil (2002)

Splat
2/5

Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004)

"Resident Evil: Apocalypse accomplishes the odd feat of having several things going on at once yet never being terribly exciting."

Randy Cordova

Splat
3/5

Respiro (2003)

"A beautifully scenic but languid character study that could use a shot of adrenalin and a more straightforward story line."

Bill Muller

Splat
2.5/5

Resurrecting the Champ (2007)

"Resurrecting the Champ bobs and weaves enough to avoid the usual sports clichés, but its too-earnest screenplay lays it on thick and pulls what could have been a knockout punch."

Scott Craven

-

The Return (2004)

Click here to see the review.

Tomato
3/5

Return to Never Land (2002)

"Children will enjoy Never Land for its adventure and physical humor. Adults may simply like strolling down memory lane."

Scott Craven

Splat
3/5

Revolutionary Road (2008)

"Unlike the novel, which you can set aside and take a break, with the film version of Revolutionary Road, you're in for the duration, and it's ultimately too much to take."

Bill Goodykoontz

Tomato
3.5/5

Riding Alone For Thousands of Miles (2006)

"It sounds like a slight plot, and it is, but it is rich in detail that makes up for the simplicity of the story."

Richard Nilsen

Tomato
4/5

Riding Giants (2004)

"Instead of weighing the film down with spaced-out surfer-dude quotes, director Stacy Peralta traces the sport's origins back to the ancient Hawaiians."

Bill Muller

Tomato

The Ring (2002)

"OK, you might buy that a mischievous she-demon could imprint a VCR tape with disturbing, chaotic images, but the "Be Kind, Rewind" sticker is a bit much."

Bill Muller

Splat
2/5

The Ring Two (2005)

"In the first Ring, you watched a videotape and seven days later, you were dead. In the second Ring, you watch a movie and seven minutes later, you're asleep."

Bill Muller

Tomato
3/5

The Ringer (2005)

"Though The Ringer is hardly the Farrellys' best, you'll probably be smiling, too."

Bill Muller

Tomato
4/5

The Road (2009)

"The Road can be a tough slog, but the journey is a rewarding one."

Bill Goodykoontz

Splat
2.5/5

Robots (2005)

"The animation, and the creation of a world populated entirely by mechanical people, is impressive, but the plot is non-existent and the all-too-distant characters blend together in a mass of clanking gears and creaky sight gags."

Bill Muller
