Babel (2006) |
"In his latest film, Babel, director Alejandro Gonzalez intertwines four stories that are overripe with nail-biting potential and then unleashes them on the audience without mercy. And while this may actually rank as the most challenging, difficult," |

Babylon A.D. (2008) |
"Trailer Bulletin: Babylon A.D." |

Splat 1/5 |
Babylon A.D. (2008) |
"Babylon A.D. is a poorly-assembled sci-fi melodrama bereft of excitement or intelligence that will only remind me of the director's earlier, better film because its translated title echoes my sentiments about this one - namely, hatred." |
Todd Gilchrist |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Bad Boys II (2003) |
"It's neither great nor horrible, but rather just middle-of-the-road, wrapped in slick production values and featuring an able-bodied, but misguided cast." |

Tomato 3.5/5 |
Bad News Bears (2005) |
"Raunchy, raucous fun featuring Thornton's Bad Santa persona in full effect." |
Jeff Otto |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Bad Santa (2003) |
"A wildly uneven but occasionally funny blast of holiday ill-will." |
KJB |
Tomato 4/5 |
Baghead (2008) |
"Baghead is at once a terrifically smart and scary piece of entertainment, an embodiment of the mumblecore aesthetic, and a sly commentary on the challenges aspiring and independent filmmakers face in finding an audience for their work." |

The Banger Sisters (2002) |
"The Banger Sisters is not a terrible film but ultimately a missed opportunity, an opportunity to show the outcomes of those deluded Band-Aids from Almost Famous, or even as a demonstration of the inevitable paths of people whose experiences peaked when th" |

Barbershop 2: Back in Business (2004) |
"Both films are flawed and unfocused. Both have thin plots that must rely on even thinner back-stories to flesh out a feature length film." |

Basic (2003) |
"Basic is one of those films that thinks itself clever in its use of confusion, when in reality it's just confusing. Sound confusing? Yeah, thought so." |

Splat 1/5 |
Basic Instinct 2 (2006) |
"Unenjoyable, unerotic, I daresay unwatchable." |

Tomato 5/5 |
Batman - Mask of the Phantasm (1993) |
"What the live action Batman films should be and could be if the Warner Brother execs could pull their heads out long enough to realize it. Frankly, the live action Bat-films are embarassing compared to this and the other animated films." |
KJB |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
Batman Begins (2005) |
"Smart and precisely crafted, Batman Begins is the most accessible comic film ever made." |

The Battle of Shaker Heights (2003) |
"All I can say is there's plenty of difficult people in Hollywood. We just aren't usually exposed to it. I think this film will speak for itself and the future of all involved." |
Jeff Otto |
Splat 3/5 |
The Baxter (2005) |
"The biggest failing of The Baxter is that the humor is often just too obscure." |

Be Cool (2005) |

Because of Winn-Dixie (2005) |

Becoming Jane (2007) |
"Becoming Jane may fudge the facts, but it finds the more compelling emotional truth." |

Splat 4/10 |
Bedtime Stories (2008) |
"Bedtime Stories isn't meant for us (adults). You know you're not the target audience if, when it starts raining gum balls, you don't think about eating them. You think about whether or not they would dent your car." |

Bee Movie (2007) |

The Big Bounce (2004) |

Black Christmas (2006) |
"Black Christmas works best as a campy deconstruction of the genre than it does as a horror film." |

The Black Dahlia (2006) |
"Unfortunately, rather than being his comeback film, The Black Dahlia is just the latest in a long line of disappointments from De Palma." |

Black Sheep (2007) |
"Sure, Shaun of the Dead may have unlocked the door for movies of this ilk. But Black Sheep kicked it off the hinges and paved the way for a second coming in horror comedies." |

Black Snake Moan (2007) |
"Black Snake Moan is highly recommended for anyone who is tired of films with scripts that insult their intellect or that boast superficial performances by mediocre actors." |

Blackballed: The Bobby Dukes Story (2006) |
