V For Vendetta (2005)

"Only when the script and visuals stray too far from the source does the film lose its way, getting bogged down in the mechanics of big-budget action filmmaking and ponderous dialogue as it works toward a way-too-tidy, sentimental finale."

Keith Phipps

Splat
B-

Vacancy (2007)

"Efficiency isn't everything, and [director] Antal sacrifices too much in order to sustain tension: Imagine what Michael Haneke or Brian De Palma would have done with a premise like this one."

Scott Tobias

Tomato
B-

Valentino: the Last Emperor (2009)

"From Valentino Garavani’s imperious carriage and diva fits to his coterie of tiny dogs, the subject of Tyrnauer’s doc comes off like a fictional character, scripted by a writer with a weakness for cliché."

Noel Murray

C-

The Valet (2007)

"The stitching of Veber's contrived entanglements falls apart at the tug of a thread, because nobody onscreen buys the ruse being perpetrated."

Scott Tobias

Valkyrie (2008)

"Despite its potential to be a turkey for the ages, Singer’s blandly proficient historical thriller is fatally forgettable."

Van Wilder: The Rise of Taj (2006)

"Granted, it's still ****, but with a sweeter odor than usual."

Vantage Point (2008)

"Travis dutifully pastes the story-shards together, but he and the actors are hamstrung by a script that's so busy piling on the twists that it never pauses to consider what they mean."

Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008)

"Through it all, Vicky Cristina Barcelona remains unaccountably romantic, a confirmation that love, elusive and painful as it can be, is still worth pursuing."

The Visitor (2008)

"The Visitor is a low-key, naturalistic, beautifully observed character study about the quiet angst of the buttoned-down soul."

Nathan Rabin

Splat
C-

Vitus (2007)

"Gheorghiu's bad-seed severity has a creepy undercurrent."

Scott Tobias

Tomato
B+

Viva (2008)

"Anna Biller's debut feature Viva consciously combines elements of all of the above, offering a painstaking recreation of the look and feel of campy retro sexploitation."

Volver (2006)

"Almodóvar is still one of the few directors worth watching just for how he uses color on the screen. But the pleasures have always run much deeper, and now they run deeper still."
