Tomato 3/4 |
Rabbit-Proof Fence (2002) |
"Somewhat stolid pacing keeps the film from fulfilling its potential, but it is always touching, if tough to watch." |
Phil Villarreal |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Rachel Getting Married (2008) |
"Given to jarring shifts between lucid insight and cataclysmic meltdowns, Hathaway makes Kym seem like a real person rather than a cartoonish concoction." |
Phil Villarreal |
Splat 2/4 |
Racing Stripes (2005) |
"It whacks you over the head with it like a puffy bouquet of foam flowers. The beating doesn't actually hurt - it's too cute to hurt - but you do get annoyed with it" |
Phil Villarreal |
Splat 2.5/4 |
Radio (2003) |
"Video may have killed the radio star, but a goofy script killed the Radio star." |

Tomato 4/4 |
Raging Bull (1980) |
"Scorsese and De Niro built up such a rapport that the actor became an extension of the director's vision." |
Phil Villarreal |
Tomato 4/4 |
Rain (2002) |
"Before it rains, clouds cover the sky and hint at the coming storm. Jeffs fully captures that feeling of anticipation." |
Phil Villarreal |
Tomato 3/4 |
Raise Your Voice (2004) |
" I cared.
I cared. Then it was off to therapy. After all, the film's production company, for gosh sakes, is called ChickFlicks. ChickFlicks!" |
Phil Villarreal |
Splat 1.5/4 |
Raising Helen (2004) |
"Hudson is fatally miscast, and it's nearly impossible to watch the film and not imagine that a still-youthful but more world-weary star would have made a better fit." |
Phil Villarreal |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Raising Victor Vargas (2003) |
"An arresting triumph for Sollett." |
Phil Villarreal |

The Rape Of Europa (2007) |
"The directors might have benefited by going smaller %u2014 for instance, focusing on two or three pieces of lost artwork and tracing their history. This art documentary simply isn't artful enough." |

Ratatouille (2007) |
"The wild, devoted praise afforded Bird's solid yet tepid films puzzles me. It's as though society is playing a joke that everyone but me and a few others are in on. I smell a Ratatouille." |

Ray (2004) |
"A movie with half the 150-minute running time could have done just as much unchaining." |
Phil Villarreal |
Tomato 3/4 |
Read My Lips (2002) |
"The exposition does pay off, if you can stay awake that long. There's little gripping in the film until the second hour." |
Phil Villarreal |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Reader (2008) |
"Profound but too dyslexic for its own good." |

The Real Cancun (2003) |
"Some nebbish 18-year-olds may be inspired by Alan's transformation into a party animal. Others may find it sickening." |
Phil Villarreal |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Real Dirt on Farmer John (2007) |
"By the time the end credits come along, you're about ready to pat your new friend on the back, careful to avoid ruffling that feathered boa." |

Splat 1.5/4 |
The Reaping (2007) |
"At least the sordid screenplay provides this fantastic line, uttered by Ben: "Forget about it. Let's just get out of here before the final two plagues!"Amen to that." |

Rebel Without a Cause (1955) |
"If ever a film was haunted, it's "Rebel Without a Cause," which burns as a bright memorial for stars James Dean, Natalie Wood and Sal Mineo." |

The Reckoning (2004) |
"All that black, combined with the mundanity of the second act, induces us to close our eyes." |
Phil Villarreal |

The Recruit (2003) |
"Watching James tap on a computer isn't so exciting. And neither is The Recruit." |
Phil Villarreal |

Red Dragon (2002) |
"Only two words will tell you what you know when deciding to see it: Anthony. Hopkins." |
Phil Villarreal |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Red Eye (2005) |
"A jet-fueled dynamo of airborne horror, the film marks the revitalization of director Wes Craven." |
Phil Villarreal |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Red Lights (2004) |
"Contentious sparks fly off the screen, for Kahn has chosen the most vicious of battlefields for his dramatic grid - an unhappy marriage." |

Reds (1981) |
"Vittorio Storaro, who won an Oscar for his cinematography, keeps the long film moving at a healthy pace, mixing static shots with subtle camera movement, never showing off or detracting from the story." |
Phil Villarreal |
Tomato 4/4 |
Reefer Madness (1937) |
""Reefer Madness" is so outrageously over the top that it's tough to imagine it was taken seriously even in the 1930s." |

Reign of Fire (2002) |
"Maybe you've never heard of [Christian Bale.] He'd rather have it that way." |
Phil Villarreal |
Tomato 3/4 |
Reign of Fire (2002) |
"Someone please sign McConaughey to a multi-picture action contract that also has a stipulation banning him from starring in movies with J. Lo or Elizabeth Hurley." |
Phil Villarreal |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Reign Over Me (2007) |
"Cheadle and Sandler bust each other's chops, share video-game controllers in a preset ritual and trade glances and phrases that hint at inside jokes developed in the study sessions, bar benders and spontaneous road trips of youth." |

Rent (2005) |
"There's a moment in which Roger (Adam Pascal), the burnout rocker, singingly accuses Mimi of looking 16. She could have easily retorted, "You look 40."" |

Tomato 4/4 |
Requiem for a Dream (2000) |
"There's a wholehearted commitment in every frame toward synthesizing the feeling of hopeless addiction. It's in the writing. It's in the chaotic cinematography. It's in the actors' eyes." |
Phil Villarreal |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
Rescue Dawn (2007) |
"Herzog's familiarity with the material is an invaluable resource. His insight and vision lead to an experience that can't be matched by soundstages or computer graphics." |
Phil Villarreal |
Tomato 4/4 |
Reservoir Dogs (1992) |
"A nasty, unchained beast with teeth as sharp as razors. And it's a dog that proudly leads the pack of the very finest crime films." |
