Tomato
3.5/4

V For Vendetta (2005)

"Gripping, intelligent and innovative."

Colin Covert

Tomato
3/4

Vacancy (2007)

"Director Nimrod Antal works with razor-sharp skill, amping up the horror with suggestion and anticipation rather than flashy embellishments."

Colin Covert

Tomato
3/4

Valentin (2004)

"Sporting thick, black-rimmed glasses, a runaway imagination and enough nervous energy to light up Manhattan, Noya turns what could have been a pitiful character into a rambunctious imp."

Jeff Strickler

Tomato
3.5/4

Valentino: the Last Emperor (2009)

"As Valentino's team of seamstresses pore over a sequined white dress, entirely hand-sewn, and finally premiere it to the designer in its flawless, couture glory, it's all you can do not to gasp with pleasure."

Kara Nesvig

Tomato
4/4

The Valet (2007)

"Veber, clearly a fan of the golden age comedies of Billy Wilder, Howard Hawks and Preston Sturges, is a worthy successor."

Colin Covert

Splat
2.5/4

Valiant (2005)

"The animated feature Valiant, a story about the carrier pigeons that ferried messages from France to England during World War II, takes wing but never quite manages to soar."

Jeff Strickler

Tomato
3.5/4

Valkyrie (2008)

"Singer has a masterful touch with composition, creating tension simply by the way he places his actors around a room. And even though we know how it turned out, the assassination plot remains a gripping tale."

Colin Covert

Splat
2/4

Valley of Tears (2003)

"The story didn't travel far beyond the onion fields where Mexican-American laborers worked in harsh conditions for subsistence wages."

Colin Covert

The Van (1996)

Jeff Strickler

Splat
.5/4

Van Helsing (2004)

"More and more summer movies depend on relentless action sequences at the expense of coherent narrative, but Van Helsing might be the first whose overkill reaches nuclear capacity."

Colin Covert

Splat
1/4

Van Wilder: The Rise of Taj (2006)

"As the nerd sidekick to campus wildman Ryan Reynolds in the original film, Penn projected a geeky charm, but he's not equipped to play the lead in a well-constructed movie, let alone salvage this stunningly mediocre chain of skits."

Colin Covert

Tomato
3/4

Vanity Fair (2004)

"On the whole, Nair has mounted a handsome and intelligent production that holds nothing back."

Jeff Strickler

Tomato
3/4

Vantage Point (2008)

"While it's no classic, Vantage Point is well worth a look."

Colin Covert

Splat
2/4

Venom (2005)

"Jim Gillespie's direction is better than the material deserves. If this one rattles your cage, it is a rickety structure indeed."

Colin Covert

Tomato
3.5/4

Venus (2006)

"The best tunes are played on the oldest fiddles, they say, and Peter O'Toole, 74, proves the point in Venus."

Colin Covert

Tomato
4/4

Vera Drake (2004)

"We often praise actors for putting themselves inside the skins and souls of others, but it's a rare performer who becomes a character so uncannily and convincingly that she seems to vanish into the role."

Colin Covert

Tomato
2.5/4

Veronica Guerin (2003)

"Veronica Guerin is an inspiring biopic. It just isn't much of a thriller."

Jeff Strickler

Tomato

A Very Long Engagement (2004)

"Merging heart-wrenching emotions with quirky humor and splicing bloody war footage with goofy comedy, the movie mixes vastly disparate elements into a surprisingly smooth blend."

Jeff Strickler

Tomato
3.5/4

Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008)

"If Woody Allen's heart still belongs to New York City, he's had a thrilling, invigorating fling with northeastern Spain."

Colin Covert

View from the Top (2003)

Colin Covert

Tomato
4/4

The Village (2004)

"Shyamalan, as usual functioning as writer, director and producer, plays on our expectations like a virtuoso while subverting them."

Colin Covert

Tomato
3/4

The Visitor (2008)

"The Visitor is a delicate, human reminder of why independent films matter."

Colin Covert

Tomato
3/4

Vodka Lemon

"Objectively, it's a sad story of yearning and hardship, but it's structured and performed like a comedy. As life is."

Colin Covert

Tomato
3/4

Volver (2006)

"The Cannes Film Festival jury threw up its hands and gave this year's Best Actress Award to all six of the film's stars. They're so fine that refusing to choose between them was the only sensible choice."

Colin Covert
