'Til Death (1996)

Click here to see the review.

Splat

'Til There Was You (1997)

"With its clotted script, art direction that's all splash and no style, and dialogue that's too nakedly calculated to facilitate identification), this tedious and confused movie points several characters in obvious directions."

Lisa Alspector

10 Items or Less (2006)

"An amiable demonstration of how two charismatic actors and a relaxed writer-director (Brad Silberling) can squeeze an enjoyable movie out of practically nothing..."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Splat

10,000 B.C. (2008)

"Overblown and stupefyingly dull."

Andrea Gronvall

Lisa Alspector

Tomato

101 Dalmatians (1961)

"This was the last Disney animated feature (1961) that Uncle Walt lived to see through personally; it can't be a coincidence that it's also the last Disney animated feature of real depth and emotional authenticity."

Dave Kehr

Tomato

The 11th Hour (2007)

"The filmmakers take pains not to foster fatalistic gloom, concentrating on some of the progressive solutions still available to us."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Tomato

12 (2007)

"The tradition of Russian stage acting enriches this satisfying update of Reginald Rose's TV play Twelve Angry Men."

Andrea Gronvall

Tomato

12 Angry Men (1957)

"Mechanically written, but within its own middlebrow limitations, it delivers the goods."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

-

12 Hours (2003)

Tomato

12:08 East of Bucharest (2007)

"Dry comedies from eastern Europe tend to cast a skeptical eye on anything and everything, which is certainly the case with Corneliu Porumboiu's debut feature."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Splat
1/4

13 Tzameti (2006)

"13 (Tzameti) might seem allegorical, but it's too cynically concerned with what works as entertainment to offer larger truths about human existence."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

-

The 13th Floor (1999)

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Tomato

The 13th Letter (1951)

"One of [Preminger's] best efforts of the period."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

-

14 Hours (1951)

Tomato

1408 (2007)

"Adapted from a Stephen King story, this trite but watchable chiller plays like a scaled-down version of The Shining, with Cusack driven over the edge by hallucinations of his abusive father and dead daughter."

J. R. Jones

-

15 Minutes (2001)

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Tomato

17 Again (2009)

"The ancient body-switching premise is animated by a breezy script that briefly addresses some of its darker implications before returning to a celebration of adolescence."

Andrea Gronvall

-

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Splat

1900 (1977)

"Great moments stud Bernardo Bertolucci's 1976 Marxist epic, but the end result is ambiguous."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Tomato

2 Days In Paris (2007)

"Satirical and casual in its approach, and Delpy's grasp of the material is assured."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Splat

2 Days In The Valley (1996)

"Herzfeld has a tolerable eye for filling a 'Scope frame but a tin ear when it comes to creating dialogue; these are all characters we've met before, and most even seem bored with themselves."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Splat
2/4

20 Dates (1998)

"20 Dates may be unpleasant to watch, but despite Berkowitz's icky manners and unwinning calculations, he does find true love."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Tomato

20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (1954)

"Grandly entertaining."

Dave Kehr

Tomato

200 Motels (1971)

"Zappa's most ambitious compositions (performed by the London Philharmonic) share screen time with nostalgic freak humor."

2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

"It was a freshening attitude then, though its long-term effects haven't been all to the good."

Dave Kehr

Tomato

2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

"The film's projections of the cold war and antiquated product placements may look quaint now, but the poetry is as hard-edged and full of wonder as ever."

Splat

2012 (2009)

"As you might expect with director Roland Emmerich, the movie isn’t a patch on the trailer."

Cliff Doerksen

Tomato

2046 (2005)

"The romantic fatalism is so lush that you're invited to get lost in it."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Splat

21 (2008)

"The students are so blandly written this never builds any suspense, though it probably has some value as an empowerment fantasy for debt-ridden collegians."

J. R. Jones

Tomato
4/4

25th Hour (2002)

"Lee and his cast are so adept at getting us acquainted with Monty and these other people that we wind up feeling like we've known them for years."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Tomato

27 Dresses (2008)

"Eventually the contrivances win out, but the cast keeps it all watchable."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Tomato

28 Up (1984)

"No matter how it's interpreted, the film remains a deft and compelling piece."

Dave Kehr
