J'entends plus la guitare (1991) |
"Moments of raw intimacy like this make it particularly painful to watch as the film lurches/slouches to its inevitably tragic conclusion." |
Christopher Long |

Jack Lemmon Film Collection (2009) |
"Though this collection doesn't contain any of his truly great films, it's a nice 'B' collection." |

The Jackal (1997) |
"I recommend this Collector's Edition DVD. It is worth the extra five or ten dollars you are going to pay. The extras are pretty good, and the running commentary is wonderful." |

The Jacket (2005) |
"Taken as a fable, the story is sweet and affecting, if awfully lightweight. Taken as science fiction, it never makes much sense or makes you care much about it." |
John J. Puccio |
Splat 5/10 |
The Jacket (2005) |
"What we get is mostly a convoluted tale that tries hard to seem far more important than it is. In fact, it's all rather banal and sentimental." |
John J. Puccio |
Tomato 10/10 |
Jackie Brown (1997) |
"Pam Grier masterfully takes the role written for her and runs with it... this is perhaps the best role she has ever had the opportunity to undertake." |
Dean E. Winkelspecht |
Tomato 7/10 |
Jailhouse Rock (1957) |
"Even if the plot is thin, the characterizations are solid, and the music is some of Elvis's best." |
John J. Puccio |
Tomato 7/10 |
Jailhouse Rock (1957) |
"...the filmmakers are savvy enough to build their movie around music, much of it pure rock-and-roll. (HD DVD Edition)" |

James Cagney: Signature Collection (1940) |
"Since Warner Bros. already showed us his darker side in their (previous) box sets, this time out they show us a broader picture of the actor's ability..." |
John J. Puccio |
Tomato 6/10 |
James Cagney: Signature Collection (1940) |
"...a lot of folks forget that he played in an equal number of straight dramatic roles, light comedies, romantic comedies, and musicals." |

Jane Eyre (1944) |
"Jane Eyre has seen no fewer than eighteen screen adaptations, none of them better than this 1944 production with Joan Fontaine and Orson Welles." |
John J. Puccio |
Tomato 8/10 |
Jane Eyre (1944) |
"...that this Jane Eyre is more Orson Welles's movie than co-star Joan Fontaine's or director Robert Stevenson's may be a blessing in disguise." |
John J. Puccio |
Tomato 7/10 |
Jane Goodall's Return to Gombe (2005) |
"As illuminating as Return to Gombe is about chimpanzees, it's even more of a loving tribute to the selfless and tireless Goodall." |

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001) |
"Fans of Kevin Smith, Jason Mewes, and their Jay and Silent Bob characters will like this more than the average filmgoer." |
James Plath |
Splat 5/10 |
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001) |
"...a rather crude, strongly self-indulgent, and often repetitious comedy that, nonetheless, was largely amiable and good-natured." |
John J. Puccio |
Splat 5/10 |
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001) |
"Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back never offended or insulted me; it mostly just bored me." |

The Jazz Singer (1927) |
"...a landmark film, and it's good to have it in so good a restored digital print and with so good a restored soundtrack. (Three-Disc Deluxe Edition)" |
John J. Puccio |
Tomato 7/10 |
The Jazz Singer (1927) |
"...there's no taking away from the movie's heart and Jolson's singing. The Jazz Singer remains a classic of its kind." |

JCVD (2008) |
"JCVD sputters badly during the bank heist scenes which, unfortunately, make up the bulk of the film." |

JCVD (2008) |
" ...not your usual Van Damme movie...and a refreshing change of pace for the actor." |

Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles (1975) |
"...a transfixing experience that inspires a kind of solemn awe on an initial viewing, but upon reflection it yields its fair share of humor." |
Christopher Long |
Splat 6/10 |
Jeepers Creepers (2001) |
"...a surplus of clichéd segments, stereotyped characters, and a nowhere ending." |
John J. Puccio |
Splat 6/10 |
Jeepers Creepers (2001) |
"...takes an enduring monster-movie premise, starts to rework it promisingly, and then drops the ball and falls back on trite, stereotyped action until we finally stop caring." |
John J. Puccio |
Splat 4/10 |
Jeepers Creepers 2 (2003) |
"...just another monster flick, with most of its budget going into the Creeper's makeup." |
John J. Puccio |
Splat 4/10 |
Jeepers Creepers 2 (2003) |
"It gets sillier as it goes along and ends up being corny. Famous last words: 'It looks dead to me.' If only." |

The Jeff Corwin Experience - Out On A Limb: Monkeys, Orangutans and More! (2001) |
"You have to respect a snake whose venom can kill 500 people. But you have to respect, even more, the guy who simultaneously holds that female snake plus its male counterpart." |
James Plath |

The Jeffersons - The Complete First Season (1975) |

The Jeffersons - The Complete Fourth Season (1977) |
"When you begin and end the season with a multi-episode hostage crisis, it shows a lack of imagination." |
James Plath |
Splat 4/10 |
The Jeffersons - The Complete Third Season (1976) |
"Part of that second through fifth year slump that The Jeffersons somehow survived." |
