G.I. Blues (1960)

Splat

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009)

"Loud, shiny, and critic-proof, this franchise launcher is basically Transformers minus the humanity."

Cliff Doerksen

Gabbeh (1996)

Gabriel Over the White House (1933)

Click here to see the review.

Dave Kehr

Tomato

Gabrielle (2005)

"This highly stylized portrait of a loveless marriage at the beginning of the 20th century merges a claustrophobic theatricality with dazzlingly cinematic wide-screen compositions (the sumptuous cinematography is by Eric Gautier)."

Richard M. Porton

Splat

The Game Plan (2007)

"Almost every note in this insipid comedy is strident or false."

Andrea Gronvall

Splat

Gamer (2009)

"Directors Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor were responsible for the delirious Crank and Crank 2 but left the magic behind."

Cliff Doerksen

Splat

Gandhi (1982)

"Attenborough's work lacks even the undercurrent of personality that David Lean brought to his films: the film has no flavor but that of the standard Hollywood hagiography."

Dave Kehr

Tomato

Gang of Four (1988)

"More classical and less experimental than [Rivette's] previous features, it's almost a summary and compilation of his major themes and preoccupations -- an ideal introduction to his work."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Tomato
3/4

Gangs of New York (2002)

"For almost the first two-thirds of Martin Scorsese's 168-minute Gangs of New York, I was entranced."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

The Garden of Delights (1970)

Don Druker

Tomato

The Garden of Earthly Delights (2004)

"A luminous, highly erotic treatise on art, love, and death."

Andrea Gronvall

Tomato

Gardens of Stone (1987)

"Francis Coppola's 1987 Vietnam meditation was his best film in a while, though it's still something less than satisfying."

Pat Graham

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Tomato

Gate of Hell (1953)

"The film's delicately choreographed battles, its use of texture and color, and its grace of movement and composition mark it as one of those rare Japanese films that survive despite overinterpretation."

Don Druker

Splat

Gattaca (1997)

"I didn't care enough about Hawke's character to ignore a big problem in the story's logic: if this future has such incredible biotechnology, why can't Law just get his damaged body parts fixed?"

Lisa Alspector

The General (1927)

"An almost perfect entertainment."

Dave Kehr

-

General Della Rovere (1959)

Click here to see the review.

Dave Kehr

Tomato

The General Line (1929)

"It's a bucolic epic about the Soviet struggle to collectivize agricultural production, and it's far from his least interesting or exciting film."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

-

A Generation (1954)

Dave Kehr

Tomato

A Gentle Woman (1969)

"Contemplative and not for all tastes."

Don Druker

-

Gentleman Jim (1942)

Click here to see the review.

Dave Kehr

Splat

Gentleman's Agreement (1947)

"It looks pretty timorous now."

Dave Kehr

Tomato

Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953)

"A landmark encounter in the battle of the sexes."

Dave Kehr

Tomato

George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead (2008)

"Though the premise requires a fair amount of indulgence, it also allows Romero to recapture the indie spirit of his landmark debut."

J. R. Jones

Tomato

George of the Jungle (1997)

"An amiable, highly ingratiating piece of lowbrow entertainment, and the audience of mainly young children and parents I saw it with on Saturday night clearly had a ball. So did I."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

-

George Stevens: A Filmmaker's Journey (1996)

Click here to see the review.

Dave Kehr

Tomato

George Washington (2000)

"You have to bring a lot of yourself to this film if you want it to give something back, but the rewards are considerable."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Splat

Georgia Rule (2007)

"The confused script trades in such heavy topics as alcoholism and child sexual abuse, but every dramatic scene plays like one of those schmaltzy Happy Days moments that inevitably drew a big 'Awwwwww!' from the studio audience."

J. R. Jones

-

Georgy Girl (1966)

Don Druker

Tomato

Germany in Autumn (1977)

"It is, of course, wildly uneven (and sometimes insufferable), but there is an urgency and engagement in each of the episodes."

Dave Kehr

-

Germany, Year Zero (1947)

Click here to see the review.

Dave Kehr

Tomato

Gerry (2003)

"The two stars...[Casey Affleck and Matt Damon]...both playing characters named Gerry, wander across the desert for some reason, and if you enjoy watching them on any pretext, you'll probably enjoy this; if you don't, you won't."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Get Out Your Handkerchiefs (1978)

Dave Kehr

Tomato

Get Real (1999)

"An issue movie, a comedy, and a love story, this is pretty good at being all three."

Lisa Alspector

Tomato

Get Shorty (1995)

"An entertaining comedy-thriller adapted by Scott Frank from the Elmore Leonard best-seller and directed with bounce (if not much nuance) by Barry Sonnenfeld."

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Splat
1/4

Get Smart (2008)

"I often wondered if the filmmakers weren’t trying to fix something that isn’t broken."
