Tomato 4/5 |
A Scanner Darkly (2006) |
"It's an identity crisis wrapped in a mystery and smothered in freakout sauce, and it's relentlessly interesting. The grooviest scenes are the ones where the characters are clearly impaired and riffing on their own inner alpha waves." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4.5 |
A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001) |
"Spielberg. Osment. Two excellent reasons to sit in a movie theatre." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4/5 |
About a Boy (2002) |
"Hugh Grant fans will appreciate this new flavor of Hugh; he overcomes his supreme, unwitting selfishness beautifully." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4/5 |
About Schmidt (2002) |
"Takes a person's life, with normal, big, personal tragedies or stressors, and makes them feel as huge and unmanageable as they really are." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4/5 |
Across the Universe (2007) |
"Two thirds amazing, one third off-putting and boring psychedelia, but the amazing stuff generally wins out." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 5/5 |
Adaptation (2002) |
"I loved it - I got on the phone to tell everyone to see it right when I left the theatre." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 5 |
Addicted to Love (1997) |
"The movie is filled with really innovative shots and use of light, both in the actual making of the movie and within the plot." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 3/5 |
Adventureland (2009) |
"Adventureland as a film never really takes off %u2013 some things are resolved, other things happen that make things change, but it always has this vague sense of only being exposition and pretty soon the movie will begin." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 3/5 |
Aeon Flux (2005) |
"Aeon Flux is not a instant classic or a pants-wettingly exciting adaptation of a forgotten graphic novel, but it is also not a Catwomanesque career killer nor a wasted 93 minutes." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 5 |
Air Force One (1997) |
"Non-action movie fans will enjoy it, patriots will enjoy it, and Harrison Ford fans will enjoy it" |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Alamo (2004) |
"Meets the challenge of telling a tale with a known unhappy ending and keeping dramatic tension; narratively, you'll wish you had the seven pound 8th grade Texas History book." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4/5 |
Alien vs. Predator (2004) |
"As chock full of “oh jeez” moments as it is full of genuine enjoyment for fans. But if you are not a fan, the “oh jeez” moments will far outweigh the enjoyment.

Tomato 4 |
Almost Famous (2000) |
"If you haven't seen it and you have the slightest interest in writing, 1970's rock music, or touching fame, go see it." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 2 |
Amelie (2001) |
"Charming but not magical." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4 |
America's Sweethearts (2001) |
"Do you wonder how this movie will turn out? As with most romantic comedies, the joy is in the journey." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 2.5/5 |
American Dreamz (2006) |
"So much potential left unused...frustrating. I walked out of American Dreamz feeling good, but it was the kind of fluffy good that this movie should have been mocking, not emulating." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4/5 |
The American Gangster (1992) |
"Dark, violent, but stylish and impeccably performed." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
American Pie (1999) |
"American Pie shows us how little boys know about sex going into it, and how little the act really teaches them about it as well. But the true joy, for us in the audience anyway, is the chase. Vulgar and heartwarming!" |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4 |
American Pie 2 (2001) |
"Is it the greatest thing since apple pie? Certainly not, but it lives up to its predecessor without ruining the gestalt of the original – or the films that inspired it." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4 |
American Psycho (2000) |
"If you are offended by purposeless terrible deeds and unrepentant evil, skip it. Otherwise, it's a great movie to chat about over a nice, fluffy dessert." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 5/5 |
American Splendor (2003) |
"It's a self-reflexive paean to a self-reflexive peon who happened to turn lemonade into lemons and rocked the indie comic world." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 5/5 |
American Teen (2008) |
"We were on the edges of our seats, willing Jake not to ruin this moment with the girl, hoping Megan realizes her mistake, urging Hannah out of the car, cheering Colin's game, nurturing Mitch's discovery of just being yourself. It is a visceral ride throu" |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
American Wedding (2003) |
"It's fun, silly, it's a good time. Go, enjoy it for pete's sake; especially after all the crap that's come out this summer." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
American Zombie (2007) |
"Besides managing to be a statement on racism, a parody of a documentary, and an enjoyable character conflict between two egotistical directors, it's also a straight up zombie comedy!" |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4 |
Amistad (1997) |
"The whole historical untouchability of a Very Important Film & the incredibly dry nature of the facts was what made this production a lose-lose proposition for Spielberg." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
An Education (2009) |
"It was hard to watch Jenny fall so easily to chaotic neutral David, but it was deliriously romantic as well. He wears down our resistance and we fall for him too." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 2.5/5 |
Analyze That (2002) |
"I'll be honest - most of the movie I was smiling, not busting a gut. Like the last film, my companions liked it better than I did." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4 |
Analyze This (1998) |
"Analyze This could have been a terrifically horrible movie. It also could have been really really funny. It was definitely neither." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 3 |
Anastasia (1997) |
"[They] think all the world wants is an inane plot to justify the drawing of it,and that's enough. Kids have never been that stupid & they will never be." |
Karina Montgomery |

Andy Goldsworthy - Rivers and Tides: Working With Time (2003) |
"Beautiful photographt contextualizes his ephemeral artwork; but shows us little of the "crazy like an OCD fox" stirrings that take him there." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 5 |
Angela's Ashes (1999) |
"I am pleased to announce that this film is a fine, a beautiful presentation of a painful story." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Angels & Demons (2009) |
"It's enjoyable, toothless, and a disposable smartypants hero movie. These are rare enough that they deserve attention." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 5 |
The Anniversary Party (2001) |
"They are regular people with regular friends who happen to do larger than life things for a living, yet all the people are so real, so interesting, and so well-written." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 3/5 |
Antwone Fisher (2002) |
"Fisher has a powerful story to tell about the failure of the System to protect children & the subtly devastating consequences of instability & neglect." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4 |
Apt Pupil (1998) |
"It's a story that has taken 10 years to get to the screen at least, but what kept it from the screen for so long was lost when it was finally filmed." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 3/5 |
The Aristocats (1970) |
"always a classic, if tepid" |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
The Aristocrats (2005) |
"...Can only hear about scatological incest so many times before it's just noise...so when someone drops in a new random thing it's fabulous." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4.8 |
Armageddon (1998) |
"Do you ride rollercoasters for insight into your psyche? NO. Do you see Armageddon to be lambasted with great special effects, & incredible acts of derring-do? Yes, you do." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4.8 |
As Good as It Gets (1997) |
"Jack Nicholson has finally met his match with a complicated role which I am convinced few besides him could manage." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4 |
Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001) |
"Just the kind of movie Disney set out to make in the old days, sans songs - imagination-firing fantasy coupled with humorous characters, lush visuals and a tight screenplay." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
Atonement (2007) |
"As a technical achievement, it's one of the better films I have seen this year. The story is old-school overblown and yet it is played so sincerely you hardly notice its old-fashioned fire." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 5/5 |
Australia (2008) |
"Recreates the old pleasure of discovering an epic en masse...One moment in particular elicited a mass groan of ecstasy from our packed audience, which then elicited empathetic giggles from everyone." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Aviator (2004) |
"Solid piece of filmmaking...Leonardo seems too young but he works it, and Cate Blanchett is a fabulous, eerie Katherine Hepburn." |
Karina Montgomery |
Tomato 3/5 |
Awakenings (1990) |

Tomato 4/5 |
Away We Go (2009) |
"The whole flavor of the movie seems to be trying to reproduce other small, earnest films, but I always got the feeling that it was an imitation flavoring. Wonderful cast." |
Karina Montgomery |
Splat 2/5 |
Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994) |
"Jim before he found his voice..." |
Karina Montgomery |
Splat 2/5 |
The Addams Family (1991) |
"Close but no banana; except sublime Raul Julia" |
Karina Montgomery |
Splat 3 |
The Affair of the Necklace (2001) |
"It is a pleasant, but forgettable film, worth seeing for the tale itself and for Baker’s and Price’s performances." |
Karina Montgomery |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Alex and Emma (2003) |
"Seems to be a vanity vehicle for Kate Hudson. Think "Tracy Takes On," written by a big fan of Kate & Leopold who didn't want to seem too derivative." |
Karina Montgomery |
Splat 1.5 |
Alien Resurrection (1997) |
"I didn't realize until later how stupid the whole thing was. Chalk up one more for Sigourney's acting and chalk up one more reason to stop with sequels already." |
