S.O.B. (1981)

No article available.

Jon Niccum

Splat
2/4

S.W.A.T. (2003)

"Like a bullet shot from a rifle, this is one shiny, noisy and mechanical affair."

Jon Niccum

Splat
1/5

Safe (1995)

"An overpraised, go-nowhere project."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
4/5

Salem's Lot: The Movie (1979)

"Very frightening for a TV movie."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
4/5

Salvador (1986)

"Oliver Stone's gripping depiction of turmoil in Central America is bolstered by Wood's mesmerising performance as a burned out reporter."

Dan Lybarger

Tomato
4/5

Salvador (1986)

"Woods' greatest performance"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/5

The Sandlot (1993)

2/5

Scarface (1983)

"Ugly and overrated"

Jon Niccum

School of Rock (2003)

"Jack Black: "No, I’m not always rocking. It takes a lot of energy to rock. You have to save up energy. If you’re rocking all the time, your rock would become kind of lukewarm. You have to save up the battery power then rock white-hot.”"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3.5/4

School of Rock (2003)

"It’s bust-a-gut funny without resorting to gross-out humor; it’s sentimental without being syrupy; and it’s charming without being manipulative. Most importantly, it actually rocks."

Jon Niccum

Splat
1.5/4

The Score (2001)

"With the talent involved, "The Score" promises to be a worthy caper flick. Instead, it robs viewers of two hours and the cost of a ticket."

Dan Lybarger

Tomato
5/5

Seconds (1966)

"An ultimately terrifying thriller ... featuring Rock Hudson's lone great performance."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/5

The Secret Adventures of Tom Thumb (1993)

"Disturbing animated effort"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
2.5/4

Secret Window (2004)

"It’s hard to name an actor more versed at elevating pulp material to a stylish level than Johnny Depp."

Jon Niccum

Splat
1/4

See Spot Run (2001)

"Because it fails on so many levels, one wonders why "See Spot Run" wasn't put to sleep during development."

Dan Lybarger

Tomato
3/4

Serendipity (2001)

"British director Peter Chelsom and writer Marc Klein almost seem to take pride in having made a cookie-cutter movie, and to be fair, they've made a rather tasty confection."

Dan Lybarger

Tomato
5/5

Seven Samurai (1954)

"On a short list of the greatest films of all time."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3.5/4

Sexy Beast (2001)

"Nonetheless, in a summer full of "poxy" flicks that aim for formula and fail at even that lowly goal, "Sexy Beast" is a ferocious alternative."

Dan Lybarger

Tomato
4/5

Shaft (1971)

"Undeniably cool"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
5/5

Shane (1953)

"Arguably, the best American western ever made"

Jon Niccum

Splat
1.5/4

Shark Tale (2004)

"By the end of the film it wasn’t my stomach that was hurting from laughter; it was my butt that was sore from the pop culture/product placement spanking I was enduring."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/5

She's So Lovely (1997)

No article available.

Jon Niccum

Tomato
5/5

The Shining (1980)

"Among a handful of the scariest movies ever made."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
2.5

The Shipping News (2001)

"With its sterling literary pedigree, picturesque setting, proven creative team and dream cast, "The Shipping News" ultimately ends up less than the sum of its parts."

Dan Lybarger

Tomato
4/5

Shirley Valentine (1989)

"Collins' terrific performance bouys this somewhat awkward adaption of the play."

Dan Lybarger

Tomato
5/5

A Shot in the Dark (1964)

"The funniest in the Pink Panther series"

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/5

Showgirls (1995)

"One of the most entertaining bad movies of all time."

Jon Niccum

Splat
2/4

Showtime (2002)

"Murphy is no more capable of portraying an authentic cop than he is of going to the grocery store without a posse of Hollywood hangers-on."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
2.5/4

Shrek 2 (2004)

"There is a fine line between name-dropping a product or TV show for laughs and genuinely writing something that is funny on its own merit"

Jon Niccum

Splat
1.5/4

Sidewalks of New York (2001)

""Sidewalks of New York" writer-director Edward Burns has managed to find the five or six least engaging people in New York to waste 107 minutes on."

Dan Lybarger

Tomato
3/4

Signs (2002)

"Signs exploits fear of the unknown better than any movie since The Blair Witch Project."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/5

Silent Rage (1982)

"Hollywood's best musical"

Jon Niccum

Splat

The Skeleton Key (2005)

"The setup to this haunted bayou tale isn’t particularly exceptional, but the finale is eerie and downright fascinating."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/4

Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (2004)

"The production design is so adept at looking both retroactive AND futuristic that the film always has a newness about it even when its plot is conventional."

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3/4

Sky High (2005)

"A not-so-subtle metaphor about popularity and puberty."

Jon Niccum

Splat
1.5/4

Slackers (2002)

"Going with this title is about as original as calling the movie Animal Houses."

Jon Niccum

Tomato

Slap Shot (1977)

"The quintessential hockey flick"

Jon Niccum

Tomato

Slaughterhouse Five (1972)

Jon Niccum

Tomato
3.5/4

Snatch (2001)

"Ritchie's command of the visual medium is so skillful, his criminals so memorable and his writing so undeniably entertaining, that it's a wasted criticism to try and intellectually dissect [his] movies."

Jon Niccum
