The Saddest Music in the World (2004) |
"Little more than an elaborate stunt, created almost exclusively in post-production." |

Salton Sea (2002) |
"Director Caruso got energetic performances out of every member of the large and talented cast. It's too bad the result is absolutely awful." |

Sandstorm (2000) |
"An engrossing and almost incredible true story of social injustice that follows a crime (gang rape) from incident to trial and a bit beyond." |

The Santa Clause (1994) |

The Savages (2007) |
"Like the bitter medicine your mother used to give you, The Savages can be quite effective, even if you secretly hope you never have to endure it again." |

Save the Last Dance (2001) |
"I like Stiles and Thomas together. I did not like the movie in which they found themselves stuck." |
Steve Rhodes |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Saved! (2004) |
"Not since Election has high school life been so deliciously skewered ... it's filled with lines that are little gems of biting satire." |
Steve Rhodes |
Splat 6/10 |
Saving Grace (2000) |
"It is so low-key as to be almost no-key whatsoever. The situations in it are sometimes cute but never funny enough to provoke actual laughter." |
Steve Rhodes |
Tomato 4/4 |
Saving Private Ryan (1998) |
"An experience sometimes hard to endure but not to be missed." |

Saw (2004) |
"I'm sure there's an audience somewhere for this sick sort of story, but I couldn't stomach it." |

Say It Isn't So (2001) |
"Although there are a few good laughs in it, most of the film stays at the crudely unfunny level." |

Tomato 7/10 |
Scary Movie (2000) |
"Without a pretentious bone in its body, the movie is 100% spoof." |

"Never has a movie franchise fallen so far so fast." |
Steve Rhodes |
Splat 1/4 |
Scary Movie 3 (2003) |
"This PG-13 rated film -- give me a break! -- illustrates everything wrong with the MPAA's rating system. Sleaze oozes from every celluloid frame." |

Tomato 4/4 |
Schindler's List (1993) |
"The acting is excellent. Liam Neeson is super, as is Ben Kingsley. I thought Ralph Fiennes was especially good; chilling!" |

Schultze Gets the Blues (2005) |
"Like The Straight Story sans story, it's sweet but very, very, very slow." |
Steve Rhodes |
Splat .5/4 |
The Science of Sleep (2006) |
"A painfully bad film ... This ridiculous art-house nonsense is supposed to be a comedy, but I never laughed nor did I ever even come close to smiling." |

Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed (2004) |
"Scooby's latest picture is definitely Scooberific." |
Steve Rhodes |
Splat 2/4 |
Scooby-Doo - The Movie (2002) |
"With farting contests, very scary monsters and lots of cleavage and short skirts, the movie appears to have young teenage boys more in mind than the kindergarten set. The script, however, is way too childish to attract teenagers." |
Steve Rhodes |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Scoop (2006) |
"A silly but satisfying little comedy." |

The Score (2001) |
"Plays like a slow motion version of Entrapement with De Niro attempting a geriatric rendition of Catherine Zeta-Jones." |
Steve Rhodes |
Splat .5/4 |
The Scorpion King (2002) |
"Unlike Battlefield Earth, which was so laughably bad that it was almost enjoyable at times, The Scorpion King is stupefyingly terrible from beginning to end." |

Scrapbook (1999) |
"Reduced me to tears on many occasions as it considers genuine subjects ... that most movies reduce to clichés." |

The Secret Life of Bees (2008) |
"Slow and earnest, with dreamy, sleep-inducing music, it proves to be a remarkably inconsequential film even if it does possess a few dramatic moments." |
