Across the Universe (2007) |
"It isn't just another movie about the momentous events of the '60s, but rather a valentine to the era's artistic and idealistic spirit as symbolized by the music of The Beatles." |

Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London (2004) |
"If your kid has recently suffered brain damage or undergone a frontal lobotomy, they probably still won't be fooled by this cookie-cutting, lifeless drudge." |

Alfie (2004) |
"Jude Law, of course, plays Alfie, and the casting is right on target. ... His smile can disarm even the most jaded." |

Aliens of the Deep (2005) |

Alone in the Dark (2005) |

Along Came Polly (2004) |

Alpha Dog (2007) |
"A lackluster teenage true-crime tale." |
Todd Gilchrist |

4/5 |
Amazing Grace (2007) |
"Amazing Grace thoughtfully explores the issue of slavery without sermonizing or losing sight of the fact that modern audiences still need to connect with relatable characters no matter how important the subject matter." |

4/5 |
American Gangster (2007) |
"The movie truly is about an "American Gangster;" it's a business movie about unbridled capitalism that's been dressed up as the highbrow answer to Superfly." |

4.5/5 |
American Splendor (2003) |
"Manages to capture the feel of a comic book without letting the use of innovative framing devices, cut-out animation, and destruction of the proverbial "4th Wall" overpower the rest of the film." |
Spence D. |
|
|
4/5 |
American Teen (2008) |
"A film that will force you to recall every awkward feeling of rejection, alienation, and betrayal that you went through during your own high school years." |
Todd Gilchrist |

4.5/5 |
American Wedding (2003) |

The Amityville Horror (2005) |
"For the second time, Hollywood has taken this highly filmic and compelling novel that has stuck with readers for years and turned out a completely forgettable film." |

Angel (2007) |
" Sporting an excellent performance by a very promising young actress, this is a film that forces you to pay attention. More than that, it's fulfills the first requirement of any good movie: it's one you'll want to watch again." |

Angel (2007) |
"The parts are ultimately greater than the whole in the case of Good Luck Chuck, with the overall chemistry between Cook and Alba proving more memorable than any particular joke or sequence. You may mildly enjoy Chuck as you're watching it, but the film wi" |

Angel-A (2007) |
"Besson excels at stories about rough characters who are saved through their relationship with a more civilized character (as in The Professional and La Femme Nikita). Angel-A adheres to that paradigm, but it also has more soul, humor and warmth than those" |

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007) |
"Of all the many films about Jesse James, Andrew Dominik's epic may not end up ranking as the most popular or the best film on the subject but it will certainly, flaws and all, be regarded as the most intriguing and ambitious take on the man and his myth." |

The Assassination of Richard Nixon (2004) |
"Sam Bicke ... is the role Penn was born to play -- if only because it's different than any others he's ever done -- and makes the film the triumph it is." |

The Astronaut Farmer (2007) |
"While it is far too long, especially in the home stretch, The Astronaut Farmer is a heartwarming and fun story about the tenacity it takes to see a dream through." |
