Habit (1997) |
"This has been a good decade for movies about New York vampires." |

Hairspray (2007) |
"Waters cultists have ample reason to be wary, but the film retains a surprisingly subversive edge that undercuts its blinding surface gloss." |

Tomato A- |
Half Nelson (2006) |
"For director Ryan Fleck, co-writer/producer/editor Anna Boden, and their remarkable cast, the solution is to underplay every scene and let the central character's ambiguities set a rocky course for the movie to follow." |

Halloween II (2009) |
"Let’s float a notion: Rob Zombie is the greatest horror-movie director never to make a great movie." |

Hamlet 2 (2008) |

Hancock (2008) |
"It's worth it just to see a ready-made Superman-sized superhero in action without all the baggage of decades of retellings and reworkings; even looking at familiar faces working through a familiar genre, it's nice to be surprised for once." |

The Hangover (2009) |
"It’s a film about forgetting that seems designed to be forgotten." |
Keith Phipps |
Splat C |
Hannah Montana The Movie (2009) |
"Has there ever been a more critic-proof film than Hannah Montana? Montana is targeted with laser precision at an audience barely old enough to read, let alone pay attention to what laptop-toting wretches have to say about its aesthetic shortcomings." |
Nathan Rabin |
Tomato B |
Hannah Takes the Stairs (2007) |
"Swanberg is accurately charting the social rituals of the young and inarticulate." |
Noel Murray |
Splat D+ |
The Happening (2008) |
"There are scattered moments of craft throughout, but the gulf between his lofty aspirations and feeble accomplishments has seldom been wider or more chuckle-inducing." |

Happily N'Ever After (2007) |
"A leaden, irritatingly obvious postmodern fairy tale." |

Happy Feet (2006) |
"[Happy Feet's] a gorgeously rendered marvel that pulls out all the stops to wow its viewers." |

Tomato B+ |
Happy-Go-Lucky (2008) |
"The opening scenes of Mike Leigh's latest slice-of-life dramedy Happy-Go-Lucky introduce a protagonist who appears psychologically disordered at worst, and highly annoying at best." |
Noel Murray |
Splat C+ |
Hard Candy (2005) |
"As Hard Candy moves further and further away from its opening scenes' gripping ambiguity, the frightening conviction Page brings to her role becomes the only thing keeping the film from lurching into sleazy, pulpy camp." |

Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008) |
"Any comedy zany enough to include a veiled, left-field reference to Clara's Heart has something going for it." |
Scott Tobias |
Splat |
Harry And Max (2005) |
"Though Williams and Johnson fit comfortably into the European naturalism that's become Münch's stock in trade, they can't quite wriggle out of his high-concept premise and become plausibly real." |
Scott Tobias |
Tomato |
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005) |
"Whenever it hits its stride, it's a well-acted, vividly executed, full-speed-ahead special-effects extravaganza that puts as much bang as possible into every remaining scene." |
Tasha Robinson |
Tomato B |
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009) |
"This is the darkest, saddest, most sophisticated Harry Potter film yet." |
Tasha Robinson |
Tomato B- |
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) |
"Order Of The Phoenix feels a little too complacent at times, though it has moments of visual wit, and it doesn't soft-pedal the dark mood that has eclipsed the series." |
Scott Tobias |
Tomato B- |
Harsh Times (2006) |
"An alternately tough and ridiculous thriller." |
Noel Murray |

The Haunting in Connecticut (2009) |
"As a piece of storytelling, The Haunting In Connecticut is pretty lazy. As a horror movie, it’s lazier still, bringing out every annoying shock-cut and disorienting sound-design trick of the last decade." |
Keith Phipps |
Splat D+ |
The Haunting of Molly Hartley (2008) |
"It's a horror film better suited for skittish cats than humans." |
Keith Phipps |
Splat C- |
Haven (2006) |
"Bloom is the giant void at the center of the film, and his laughable histrionics pull Haven firmly into camp territory." |
Nathan Rabin |
Tomato B |
The Hawk Is Dying (2007) |
"The Hawk Is Dying is a fragile little movie, occasionally ridiculous, but with M. Night Shyamalan's Lady In The Water, Giamatti proved that he can make even the weirdest material believable." |

He's Just Not That Into You (2009) |
"The movie makes it seem worthwhile, even noble, to wait around for cads to change their ways. No doubt the film's happy endings will only perpetuate more delusion and heartbreak." |

Heading South (2006) |
"But though the women talk a lot about the soul-changing effects of great sex, Cantet largely steers clear of cinematic sensuality, making his heroines' satisfaction -- and the way it exploits the poor -- primarily theoretical." |
