Splat
1/5

The Babe (1992)

"A terrible bio-pic, almost as bad as William Bendix in The Babe Ruth Story; Goodman is all ham; inaccuracies abound; no real sense of the game is evident."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
4/5

Babe (1995)

"A wonderful family movie; one of the best of the 1990s, and all time."

Bob Bloom

Splat
1/5

Babes in Toyland (1961)

"A disgrace to the memory of Laurel and Hardy and the Hal Roach original."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/5

Bachelor Party (1984)

"Even Tom Hanks had to start somewhere, and this lame comedy is one of his earliest works. That is its only attribute."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3/5

Backbeat (1994)

"Nice look at the early life of the Beatles."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3/5

Backdraft (1991)

"Great effects, the fire is a living, breathing entity."

Bob Bloom

Splat
1/4

Bad Boys II (2003)

"After viewing Bad Boys II I think the II in the title stands for II long, II loud, II dumb and II bad."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
4/5

Ball of Fire (1941)

"A great screwball comedy, with Stanwyck in one of her sexiest roles."

Bob Bloom

Tomato

The Band Wagon (1953)

"Nobody made musicals better than MGM, and the proof can be found in this five-film set. "

Bob Bloom

Tomato
4/5

Bang the Drum Slowly (1973)

"A great baseball movie and a touching buddy film with De Niro showing the talent that has made him one of our best actors. Moriarity gives a fine performance as his star-pitcher friend."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
4/5

Barry Lyndon (1975)

"Sure it is slow; but it rolls over you and mesmerizes you; a wonderfully photographed effort with a great soundtrack; one of O'Neal's best performances."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3/5

Barton Fink (1991)

"Interesting Coen Bros. venture. Goodman was most strange."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/4

Basic (2003)

"The convoluted script provides so many twists and turns that it practically loses its audience. By the finale, you don’t remember who was supposed to be dead or alive, nor separate the good guys from the bad guys."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
4/5

Batman (1989)

"A dark reinvention of the Batman legend; the only offkey piece is Jack Nicholson's way over the top performance."

Bob Bloom

Tomato

Batman Begins (2005)

"Batman Begins is the kick-butt movie of the summer. It will lure you back to the multiplex to see it again."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
4/5

Beau Geste (1939)

"A great adventure film from the golden age of movies; Cooper is in top form, ably assisted by Milland and Preston. Brian Donlevy steals the show as the sadistic sargeant."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3.5/4

A Beautiful Mind (2001)

"A brilliant performance by Russell Crowe, who takes his audience on a terrifying journey inside a man tormented by self-created mental demons, propels A Beautiful Mind."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3/5

Beavis and Butt-Head Do America (1996)

"A wonderful bit of anarchy, anti-social fun; at times tasteless, but always funny."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3/5

Bedlam (1946)

"A fine feature in the Val Lewton series for RKO is not so much a horror film, though it does contain one of Karloff's more deliciously sadistic performances."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3/4

Bee Movie (2007)

"Bee Movie is fun, if not formulaic in its humor and story approach. The writers threw in every ... bee joke and situation you could think of, yet the movie still works."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3.5/4

Before Sunset (2004)

" For the movie’s placid external nature hides a tumultuous emotional underside filled with recriminations, anger, hope, compassion and love. "

Bob Bloom

Splat

3/5

Ben-Hur - A Tale of the Christ (1926)

"Hokey by today's standards, but one of the greatest silent film spectacles."

Bob Bloom

Tomato

Bend It Like Beckham (2003)

"Bend It Like Beckham is a joyous feature that works very well in the home entertainment format."

3/5

Benny & Joon (1993)

"Depp's portrayal of a Buster Keaton-ish type character is mesmerizing."

Bob Bloom

Splat
1.5/4

Beowulf (2007)

"Beowulf may contain all the modern movie magic at Zemeckis’ disposal, but it plays like something Cecil B. DeMille could have churned out in his sleep ... ."

Bob Bloom

Splat

Beyond Borders (2003)

"Never have we been forced to watch so many suffer needlessly for the sake of so few. And that’s what makes this film reprehensible."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3/5

The Big Clock (1948)

"Wonderful thriller as Milland tries to prove his innocence while Laughton plots to get away with murder."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3.5/4

Big Fish (2003)

"Big Fish is a three-ring circus of sometimes outlandish situations and characters, yet Burton makes it all seem so plausible . . . that some part of you aches to accept. "

Bob Bloom

Tomato

Biker Boyz (2003)

"The widescreen presentation is first-rate, action-packed and loud. It's a guilty pleasure B-movie, a fun way to wile away a Friday or Saturday night."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3/5

Billy Jack (1971)

"You feel guilty liking this manipulative pulp, but it somehow grabs and holds onto you."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
4/5

Birdman of Alcatraz (1962)

"Lancaster is wonderful; a tribute to the human spirit."

Bob Bloom

Tomato

Birthday Girl (2002)

"A rather unexpected and satisfying finale may leave some viewers in disbelief, but I found it charming and emotionally correct. "

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3.5/4

Black Hawk Down (2001)

Bob Bloom

Tomato

Black Hawk Down (2001)

"The widescreen transfer to DVD is so top notch, the sound so realistic, that you will think you are in the middle of a firefight."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/5

The Black Hole (1979)

"A weak, unfocused s-f venture; not one of Disney's shining moments."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
4/5

Black Sunday (1976)

"One of the all-time great thrillers. It does not seem as far-fetched today as when it was originally released."

Bob Bloom

Splat
1/5

Blackbeard's Ghost (1968)

"Another stupid Disney live-action piece of inane cliches and situations."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/5

Blame It on Rio (1984)

2/4

Blindness (2008)

"This is one of those films in which no characters have names, a device used to emphasize the point that those locked up could be you or me."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3/5

Blood In, Blood Out (1993)

"Long, ambitious and uneven, but an interesting project."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
2.5/4

Blood Work (2002)

"This is a murder mystery in which fitting together the pieces of the puzzle takes precedence over the solution."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/5

Bloody Mama (1970)

"Schlocky AIP venture, with Winters hamming it up."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/5

The Blue Angel (1930)

"Static and dated, its only redemption is Dietrich."

Bob Bloom

Splat
1.5/4

Blue Crush (2002)

"Blue Crush is as predictable as the tides. ... The movie feels stitched together from stock situations and characters from other movies."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/5

Blue Steel (1990)

"Good premise, weak execution. Silver is rather hammy as the gun nut."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/5

The Blues Brothers (1980)

"Bloated, overlong, too many car crashes, too little humor. A big disappointment."

Bob Bloom
