Air Force (1943) |
"Howard Hawks finds a perfect vehicle for his study of the male group. William Faulkner polished the dialogue, but as a silent it would still be tremendously exciting and evocative." |
Dave Kehr |
Tomato |
Airplane! (1980) |
"The gags aren't exactly clever, but there are a lot of them, and the cutting finds a fast, effective tempo." |

Akira (1988) |
"Grade-school violence freaks may find a few kicks here, but even they may have trouble coping with this ugly movie's ending about eight separate times." |

Alexander Nevsky (1938) |

Alexandra (2008) |
"At least one critic has called this Sokurov's most political film, but on its deepest level it considers not a particular war but the complex feelings between mothers and the young men they send out into the world to kill or be killed." |

Alice (1988) |
"Not necessarily for young kids, this is a surrealist version with a great deal of attention accorded to objects." |
Jonathan Rosenbaum |
Tomato |
Alice Adams (1935) |
"Stevens's talent for stepping away from the plotline and creating intimate, casual, and naturalistic moments is given plenty of opportunity here, as it would not be in his later superproductions." |
Dave Kehr |
Tomato |
Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974) |
"Not always successful, but packed with energy and a lively Oscar-winning performance by Burstyn." |
Jonathan Rosenbaum |
Tomato |
Alice et Martin (1998) |
"The sheer neurotic intensity of Techine's characters -- characteristically stretching both backward and forward in time, as in a Faulkner novel--holds one throughout, as does Techine's masterful direction and many of the other performances." |

Alice in Wonderland (1951) |
"What's really disappointing is the undistinguished animation: the film looks and plays more like the Disney shorts than the Disney features." |
Dave Kehr |
Splat |
Alien (1979) |
"An empty-headed horror movie with nothing to recommend it beyond the disco-inspired art direction and some handsome, if gimmicky, cinematography." |

Alien Trespass (2009) |
"Sinks under the weight of its homage." |

Alien vs. Predator (2004) |

Aliens (1986) |
"One sequel that surpasses the original." |

Splat 2/4 |
Aliens of the Deep (2005) |
"Here we know only that Cameron and his bright-eyed young scientists (who take turns narrating) are heading to the deeper parts of the Atlantic and Pacific to observe the environment and life-forms down there." |
Brian Thomas |
Tomato |
All About Eve (1950) |
"The hoped-for tone of Restoration comedy never quite materializes, perhaps because Mankiewicz's cynicism is only skin-deep, but the film's tinny brilliance still pleases." |
Dave Kehr |
Splat |
All About My Mother (1999) |
"For me it felt like a good many weeks at a politically correct summer camp." |
Jonathan Rosenbaum |
Splat |
All About Steve (2009) |
"Packaged as a romantic comedy but devoid of comedy or romance, this baffling train wreck stars Sandra Bullock as a tediously kooky constructor of crossword puzzles for a Sacramento newspaper." |

All of Me (1984) |
"Martin has become a superb physical comic, and Tomlin brings some unexpected warmth to a cruelly written part. A manic fuzziness takes over in the last reel and spoils some of the pleasure, but it's still a sympathetic effort." |
Dave Kehr |
Tomato |
All of Me (1984) |

All That Heaven Allows (1955) |
"A masterpiece (1955) by one of the most inventive and recondite directors ever to work in Hollywood, Douglas Sirk." |
Dave Kehr |
Splat |
All That Jazz (1979) |
"Almost every scene is excruciating (and a few are appalling), yet the film stirs an obscene fascination with its rapid, speed-freak cutting and passionate psychological striptease." |

All the King's Men (1949) |
"Today, its realism seems bland, its moralizing forced." |
Dave Kehr |
Splat |
All The King's Men (2006) |
"The unfocused story is so bereft of any clear sense of period or location that the political melodrama sometimes seems to be taking place inside a cigar box." |
Jonathan Rosenbaum |
Tomato 3/5 |
All the Little Animals (1999) |
"The adoption of 19th-century-melodrama conventions seems motivated mainly by a desire to tap into the emotional intensity they offer. I was enthralled by these tactics, but some viewers might gag." |
