Gangs of New York (2002) |
"The movie is so over the top and silly, that you'll find yourself thinking of the sets as a prototype for a new Gangland area of Disneyland." |

Gangster No. 1 (2002) |
"In an Oscar caliber performance, Bettany plays an explosive character who spends most of the time repressing an evil grin." |

Garfield the Movie (2004) |
"The problem is that there isn't a comic series less appropriate for a movie adaptation than Garfield, and I say this as a longtime fan of the strip." |

The Gate of Heavenly Peace (1995) |

The General's Daughter (1999) |
"The film, which, sadly, is no parody, has more plot holes than pot holes on an old country road!" |

George of the Jungle (1997) |
"Depending on your point of view, this film is either truly awful or so bad it is good. In either case, be warned that a little of this repetitive movie can go a long way." |

Get on the Bus (1996) |

Get Over It (2001) |
"We end up feeling sorry for the two likable leads, Foster and Dunst, who have to endure all of the story's failed attempts at making recycled bathroom humor funny." |
Steve Rhodes |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Get Real (1999) |
"Although the picture's glossy finish and relentlessly upbeat music defuse much of the effect of the bittersweet story, the unquestionably strong performance by Ben Silverstone rises above the film's limitations." |
