Tomato
3/5

The Paleface (1948)

"Hope at his peak; Russell in top form; a winner."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/5

Panic in Year Zero (1962)

"A silly atomic war story with the prerequisite AIP juvenile delinquents and cheap look."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/4

Panic Room (2002)

Tomato

Paper Moon (1973)

"On the film’s commentary, Bogdanovich’s talk would be of more interest to the film buff than the layman. ..."

Tomato
3/5

Parenthood (1989)

"A funny, uneven look at the ups, downs, joys and sorrows of being a parent. It's a bit heavy-handed, but stll touching."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3.5/4

The Passion of the Christ (2004)

"The Passion of the Christ, while not a perfect film, will touch many emotions in those who see it. Some people may be offended, while others may be inspired. "

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/4

Paul Blart: Mall Cop (2009)

"The film's drawback seems to be (Kevin) James' indecision on a tone as well as how to present Blart."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/4

Paycheck (2003)

"Paycheck is nothing more than an adequate thriller; a standard chase movie."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3/5

Pee-Wee's Big Adventure (1985)

"A little gem, odd, quirky and completely different; James Brolin as Pee Wee Herman is a blast."

Bob Bloom

Splat
1/4

Perfect Stranger (2007)

"... An insipid potboiler that strains to be some sort of sexual thriller, but leaves you cold and bored instead."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3/5

Personal Best (1982)

"A frank, honest portrayal of the sacrifices of Olympic-caliber athletes. it is tough and uncompromising."

Bob Bloom

Tomato

Peter Pan (2003)

"Universal Home Entertainment has loaded this disc with extras centering on the making of the movie, and the special effects entailed to bring Neverland to life. "

Bob Bloom

Tomato

The Phantom of the Opera (1925)

"A very frank and critical commentary track by Scott McQueen also adds to your knowledge and history of this most-famous of horror features."

Bob Bloom

Tomato

The Phantom of the Opera (1925)

"The Phantom of the Opera belongs in the collection of any serious horror film buff."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
4/5

The Philadelphia Story (1940)

"Hepburn at her pinnacle; Grant and Stewart at their most charming; witty, warm and wonderful. A timeless work."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/4

Phone Booth (2003)

"The problem with Schumacher’s direction is that while he keeps the suspense taut, he fails to utilize or heighten the danger and, most importantly, the claustrophobia, of the situation."

Bob Bloom

Tomato

The Pianist (2002)

"... This is a feature that would have greatly benefited from a commentary track by either (director Roman) Polanski or screenwriter Ronald Harwood or both."

Bob Bloom

Tomato

Piccadilly (1929)

"Wong was a fabulous performer, and Piccadilly is one of the few films that truly captured her talent."

Bob Bloom

Tomato

Pickup on South Street (1953)

" The DVD features ... an entertaining interview with Fuller, a French documentary about the director and a 20-page booklet that includes excerpts from Fuller’s autobiography."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3/4

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003)

"... Pirates is a fantasy excursion that will bring out the Peter Pan in you."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
4/5

A Place in the Sun (1951)

"A timesless treasure. Taylor is at her most beautiful, Clift is at the top of his form and Shelley Winters is great in one of her earliest big parts."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
4/5

Planet of the Apes (1968)

"Dated now, but a lot of fun and the ending was a shocker — the first time you saw it. Science fiction and social commentary blended nicely."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3.5/4

Planet of the Apes (2001)

Bob Bloom

Splat
1.5/4

Poseidon (2006)

"... What sinks Poseidon is the cast. ... They spend a lot of time shouting and swimming. They are as interchangeable as the prop flotsam strewn around the massive set."

Bob Bloom

Tomato

Possession (2002)

"You will find Possession a most cozy experience, like a good book with which you can curl up in front of the fireplace."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/5

The Possession of Joel Delaney (1972)

"Silly, Exorcist-type rip-off, unworthy of McLaine."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/5

Prehistoric Women (1966)

"Not one of Hammer's best, but the actresses are pleasing to the eye."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2.5/4

Premonition (2007)

"One of the film’s weak links is the casting of Sandra Bullock. ... For a woman who has supposedly lost her husband, she displays very little emotion."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
3/4

The Prestige (2006)

"Throughout, (director Christopher) Nolan creates not so much an atmosphere of suspense as one of anticipation."

Bob Bloom

Splat
1.5/4

Pride and Glory (2008)

"To paraphrase Yogi Berra, "Pride and Glory" is deja vu all over again."

Bob Bloom

Splat
1.5/4

The Prince & Me (2004)

"The characters lack consistency; they are manipulated like puppets merely to serve the whims of the writers. "

Bob Bloom

Tomato
2.5/4

The Princess Diaries (2001)

"It’s not grand cinema, but it is an enjoyable confection that will give some families an excuse to spend some time together."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
4/5

Prisoner, The - Ep. 1 (1968)

"A great beginning to a wonderful groundbreakng series. This episode hooks you, and makes you want to see the others."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
5/5

The Producers (1968)

"Great, great, great! "Springtime for Hitler," one of the funniest sequences ever put on film! Wilder is great, Mostel, a force of nature. Always fresh, no matter how often you see it."

Bob Bloom

Splat
2/5

The Prophecy (1995)

"Angels battling on earth, a hammy Walken; church is more interesting."

Bob Bloom

Splat
1.5/4

Public Enemies (2009)

""Public Enemies" had the potential of being one of the best adult films of the summer season. However, Mann's would-be gangster saga lacks personality. It fails to exploit its topic and its first-rate cast. And that is a crime."

Bob Bloom

Tomato
4/5

The Public Enemy (1931)

"A stunning starring vehicle for Cagney that shaped his career. Dated and a bit slow, but Cagney magnetism shines through even then."

Bob Bloom
