Tomato
4/4

W. (2008)

"Oliver Stone's W., a biography of President Bush, is fascinating. No other word for it."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

The Wackness (2008)

"What saves this movie, which won this year's audience award at Sundance, from being boring are performances by two actors who see a chance to go over the top and aren't worried about the fall on the other side."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3.5/4

Waco: The Rules of Engagement (1997)

Roger Ebert

Tomato
4/4

Wag the Dog (1997)

"Absurd and convincing at the same time."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
4/4

The Wages of Fear (1952)

"The film's extended suspense sequences deserve a place among the great stretches of cinema."

Roger Ebert

Splat
0.5/4

Wagons East! (1994)

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

Wah-Wah (2006)

"I admired the movie and was happy to see it but can think of two other films about whites in Africa that do a better job of seeing their roles."

Roger Ebert

Splat
2/4

Waiting for Dublin (2009)

"The actors are pleasant, the locations (County Galway) are beautiful, but the movie is a wheeze."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

Waiting for Guffman (1997)

"Attention is paid not simply to funny characters and punch lines, but to small nudges at human nature."

Roger Ebert

Splat
2/4

Waiting for the Light (1990)

Click here to see the review.

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

Waiting to Exhale (1995)

"An escapist fantasy that women in the audience can enjoy by musing, 'I wish I had her problems' - and her car, house, wardrobe, figure and men, even wrong men."

Roger Ebert

Splat
1.5/4

Waiting... (2005)

"The characters in Waiting... seem like types, not people. What they do and say isn't funny because someone real doesn't seem to be doing or saying it."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
4/4

Waitress (2007)

"We can only take comfort in the little slice of heaven she left behind."

Teresa Budasi

Tomato
4/4

Waking Life (2001)

"This movie seems alive, seems vibrating with urgency and excitement."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

Waking Ned Devine (1998)

"Another one of those delightful village comedies that seem to spin out of the British isles annually."

Roger Ebert

Splat
1.5/4

Waking Up in Reno (2002)

"Nothing in Waking Up in Reno ever inspired me to think of its inhabitants as anything more than markers in a screenplay."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (2007)

"Instead of sending everything over the top at high energy, like Top Secret or Airplane!, they allow Reilly to more or less actually play the character, so that, against all expectations, some scenes actually approach real sentiment."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
4/4

A Walk in the Clouds (1995)

Roger Ebert

2/4

A Walk On the Moon (1998)

Click here to see the review.

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3.5/4

Walk the Line (2005)

"Johnny Cash sang like he meant business...Walk the Line, with its dead-on performances by Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon, helps you understand that quality."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

A Walk to Remember (2002)

"A love story so sweet, sincere and positive that it sneaks past the defenses built up in this age of irony."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
4/4

Walkabout (1971)

"Is it a parable about noble savages and the crushed spirits of city dwellers? That's what the film's surface seems to suggest, but I think it's also about something deeper and more elusive: The mystery of communication."

Roger Ebert

Splat
0/4

Walker (1987)

"Some bad movies are in no hurry to announce themselves, but Walker declares its badness right from the opening titles."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

The Walker (2007)

"There is a deep morality at work here, as often in Schrader's work."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

Walking and Talking (1996)

Roger Ebert

Splat
2/4

Walking Tall (2004)

"A cartoon of retribution and revenge."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

Walking to Werner (2007)

"The real interest in the film is not the journey or even Linas Phillips, but the people he meets on the way."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3.5/4

Wall Street (1987)

"Stone's most impressive achievement in this film is to allow all the financial wheeling and dealing to seem complicated and convincing, and yet always have it make sense."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3.5/4

WALL-E (2008)

"Pixar’s WALL•E succeeds at being three things at once: an enthralling animated film, a visual wonderment and a decent science-fiction story."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3.5/4

Wallace & Gromit Gift Set (1990)

"[Wallace & Gromit], like Bugs and Elmer or Mickey and Minnie live in an enduring, sometimes baffling, comic relationship."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3.5/4

Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005)

"Wallace and Gromit are arguably the two most delightful characters in the history of animation."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

Walt and El Grupo (2009)

"At a time when Hollywood doesn't remember last year, is obsessed with the bottom line and is run by men who often have no sense of history, Walt & El Grupo evokes a better time."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

Wanted (2008)

"Slams the pedal to the metal and never slows down."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
4/4

War and Peace (1968)

"Considering its cost and the vast effort that went into its making, such a film can be made only once in our time. The wonder, indeed, is that it was made at all."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
4/4

The War Game (1965)

"One of the most skillful documentary films ever made."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

The War of the Roses (1989)

"It's to the credit of DeVito and his co-stars they they were willing to go that far, but maybe it shows more courage than wisdom."

Roger Ebert

Splat
2/4

War of the Worlds (2005)

"War of the Worlds is a big, clunky movie containing some sensational sights but lacking the zest and joyous energy we expect from Steven Spielberg."

Roger Ebert

Splat

3.5/4

The War Tapes (2006)

"Moriarty, Pink and Bazzi sent back tape loaded with visual and audio detail, but the most moving moments of The War Tapes are their attempts to make sense of Operation Iraqi Freedom II."

Bill Stamets

War, Inc. (2008)

"A brave and ambitious but chaotic attempt at political satire."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
4/4

WarGames (1983)

"As a premise for a thriller, this is a masterstroke."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

Warm Water Under a Red Bridge (2001)

"Seeing it as a Westerner is an enlightening, even liberating, experience."

Roger Ebert

Tomato
3/4

The Warrior (2005)

"What is best in the film is its depiction of the warrior's epic journey, photographed with breathtaking beauty and simplicity by Roman Osin."

Roger Ebert

Roger Ebert

Splat
1.5/4

Wasabi (2002)

"Reno does what he can in a thankless situation, the film ricochets from humor to violence and back again, and Ryoko Hirosue makes us wonder if she is always like that."

Roger Ebert
