Tomato
3/5

The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1919)

No article available.

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/4

Capote (2005)

"it does a capable job of capturing a time and place, bringing to life several unforgettable personalities and illustrating the moral self-loathing of a writer whose real-life subject must die before he has a decent ending to his book."

Jon Niccum

Capturing the Friedmans (2003)

"Andrew Jarecki: It was one of the strangest journeys, because I started out making a film about professional children’s birthday party clowns."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3.5/4

Capturing the Friedmans (2003)

"Capturing the Friedmans is the type of film that begs to be discussed once the house lights come up."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/5

Car Wash (1976)

"Funny antics with great cast"

Jon Niccum

Splat
2/5

Carmen Miranda: Bananas Is My Business (1995)

4/5

Carnal Knowledge (1971)

No article available.

Jon Niccum

Tomato
4/5

Carnival of Souls (1962)

"An influential little horror gem"

Jon Niccum

-

Carnival of Souls (1962)

"John Clifford: It does seem to be a big inspiration to all these young independent filmmakers."

Jon Niccum

Splat
2/4

Cars (2006)

"Apparently, anthropomorphized machines are a whole lot less fun than anthropomorphized fish, insects, toys or monsters. Remember last year's Robots? Yeah, me neither"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/5

Cat Ballou (1965)

"Mainly remembered for Marvin's Oscar-winning comedic performance"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3.5/4

Catch Me If You Can (2002)

"While the critical consensus is that Catch Me If You Can is not one of Spielberg’s 'major works,' it’s also his least flawed and most purely entertaining movie in a decade."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
2.5/4

Cats & Dogs (2001)

""Cats & Dogs" is reasonably entertaining kids' fare, but it might have been even more worthwhile if it had a little more human heart and reason behind it."

Dan Lybarger

Splat
2/5

Catwalk (1996)

No article available.

Jon Niccum

Splat
1.5/4

Catwoman (2004)

"French director Pitof exhibits an approach to filmmaking as one-dimensional and pretentious as his own name."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/5

Caught (1996)

"Modest but effective little thriller"

Jon Niccum

Splat
2/4

The Cave (2005)

"too generic to offer many scares"

Jon Niccum

Splat
1.5/4

The Center of the World (2001)

"The film doesn't really explore technology, sex, or anything else that deeply."

Dan Lybarger

Tomato
4/5

The Challenge (1982)

"Nifty little culture-clash action flick from John Frankenheimer"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3.5/4

Changing Lanes (2002)

"It sticks with its characters and doesn't exploit them in order to orchestrate some grandiose revenge scenario befitting a C-grade thriller."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/4

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005)

"Whereas the rotten kids were one-dimensionally awful in Wilder’s version, in Burton’s they are fully rounded cretins. "

Jon Niccum

Tomato
4/4

Chicago (2002)

"If 2001’s Moulin Rouge proved that modern audiences would support a large-scale musical, then Chicago confirms the genre has got legs -- lots of legs, actually."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/5

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (1968)

No article available.

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/4

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe (2005)

"The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe fares much better in its smaller, quieter moments that test the mettle and morality of its young heroes"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
2.5/4

City by the Sea (2002)

"Those expecting to see a lot of shoot-outs better be ready to sit through a greater barrage of conversations."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
4/5

The City of Lost Children (1995)

"A freakish visual delight"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/5

Clash of the Titans (1981)

"Fun spin on the Greek myths despite its general goofiness"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
4/5

Clay Pigeons (1998)

"Great performance by Vaughn"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/5

Cleopatra Jones (1973)

No article available.

Clerks II (2006)

"Brian O'Halloran: 'It speaks to a more broad audience than to one who wants to hear us lace into a couple customers and play hockey on the roof.'"

Jon Niccum

Splat
2/5

The Client (1994)

No article available.

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/5

Clockwatchers (1997)

"Expertly captures the drudgery of 9-5 office gigs"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3.5/4

Closer (2004)

"There are no fight scenes. No criminal activity. No fatalities. There isn't even any sex. But in its own way, Closer is one of the edgiest movies of the year. "

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/4

The Closet (2001)

"At any moment, the movie looks as if it could fall into sermonizing or prejudice. Veber's ability to dodge these pitfalls is as engaging as the gags he creates."

Dan Lybarger

-

The Closet (2001)

"Being on a set is maybe the thing that makes me the happiest. I have the feeling of being made for that kind of job." Michèle Laroque"

Dan Lybarger

Tomato
5/5

Coal Miner's Daughter (1980)

"Superior biopic with an unforgettable performance by Sissy Spacek"

Jon Niccum

Splat
2/5

Cobb (1994)

"Despite Jones' performance, it's a disappointing biopic"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/4

Cold Mountain (2003)

"The ratio of small, efficient moments outweighs the icy, grandiose ones. Minghella and his cast have no trouble scaling the little hills."

Jon Niccum

Splat
1/4

Collateral Damage (2002)

"The question remains whether Americans are ready for a film whose plot hits so close to home. The answer: Americans are always ready for mindless, predictable crap."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/5

Commando (1985)

"A violent guilty pleasure from the Schwarzenegger estate"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
4/5

The Commitments (1991)

"One of the rare band-oriented movies that feels authentic."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/5

Communion (1989)

"Creepy and disturbing"

Jon Niccum

Splat
1.5/4

The Company (2003)

"To call this movie dramatically inert is to oversell it. This is one of the few non-experimental films that is virtually without plot."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
2/4

Confessions of a Dangerous Mind (2002)

"Confessions isn’t a movie that deserves to be gonged. But it doesn’t quite merit the '516 dollars and 32 cent' prize, either."

Jon Niccum

Splat
1/5

Congo (1995)

No article available.

Jon Niccum

Tomato
2.5/4

Constantine (2005)

"proves better at juggling the neo-religious elements central to the story far better than, say, the last two Matrix films."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/4

The Contender (2000)

"Unfortunately, the film's final act crumbles faster and more irreparably than a Ross Perot campaign."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
4/5

Copycat (1995)

"One of the more watchable 'elaborate serial killer' movies"

Jon Niccum

Splat
2/4

The Count of Monte Cristo (2002)

"Mark Twain once defined a "classic" as "a book which people praise and don't read." This adaptation is doomed to "classic" status as well."

Dan Lybarger

Tomato
4/5

Courage Under Fire (1996)

"Underrated war flick with a surprisingly effective performance by Meg Ryan"

Jon Niccum
