|
Rat Race (2001) |
|||
Ratatouille (2007) |
|||
Tomato 4/5 |
The Raven (1963) |
"A classic AIP horror-comedy; Lorre is priceless; Price has tongue firmly in cheek. And a young Jack Nicholson to boot!" |
|
Ray (2004) |
|||
Tomato 3/5 |
The Razor's Edge (1984) |
"Murray provides an interesting performance; the movie grows on you." |
|
The Reader (2008) |
|||
Splat 2/5 |
Reap the Wild Wind (1942) |
"Another overblown Cecil B. DeMille "epic." One of his lesser efforts." |
|
The Recruit (2003) |
|||
Red Dragon (2002) |
|||
Tomato 3/5 |
Red Dust (1932) |
"Gable and Harlow sizzle, and she looks great in a barrel." |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
Reefer Madness (1937) |
"A true guilty pleasure; laughable today. More fun than educational." |
|
Reign of Fire (2002) |
|||
Tomato 5/5 |
Requiem for a Heavyweight (1962) |
"An all-time classic with Quinn giving one of the finest portrayals of his career. Gleason and Mickey Rooney are great in support." |
|
The Return of Sherlock Holmes - The Hound of the Baskervilles (1992) |
|||
Splat 2/5 |
"Another worthless and useless sequel." |
||
Tomato 3/5 |
The Revenge of Frankenstein (1958) |

|
The Ring Two (2005) |
|||
Tomato 3/5 |
The River Wild (1994) |
"A buff Streep vs. bad guy Bacon on a wild river journey in which good acting overcomes several cliches." |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
"Wonderful TV movie about the pressures and ego clashes and politics surrounding the making of Citizen Kane." |
||
Tomato 4/5 |

|||
Tomato 3/5 |

"Hope and Crosby still a bit rough around the edges." |
|
Tomato 4/5 |
The Roaring Twenties (1939) |
"One of the last great gangster films of the 1930s. Cagney brings a touch of poignancy to the hood who time has passed by, and Gladys George is splendid as Panama." |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
Robin and the Seven Hoods (1964) |
"A silly, guilty pleasure romp; forget the acting just watch the Rat Packers have a blast." |
|
Splat 2/5 |
Robin Hood (1973) |
"Not one of Disney's better animated efforts; it lacks the majesty of earlier works." |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
Robot Monster in 3D! (1953) |
"OK, it''s cheesy, it's stupid, it's cheap, it''s nearly inept, but, by golly, it's a hoot to watch." |
|
Rock Star (2001) |
|||
Tomato 3/5 |
The Rocketeer (1991) |
"A fun outing, harkening back to the old serial days. Dalton is appropriately hammy as the Errol Flynn-type villain." |
|
Splat 1/5 |
Rocky IV (1985) |
"Should have stopped at three. Four, no more." |
|
Splat 2/5 |
Rollercoaster (1977) |
"A silly disaster-genre film that's weak and not worth the effort." |
|
Tomato 4/5 |
Roman Holiday (1953) |
"A stunning film debut by Audrey Hepburn, charming, gaminlike, a delight." |
|
The Rookie (2002) |
|||
Tomato 3/5 |
Roxie Hart (1942) |

|
Tomato 3/5 |
Royal Wedding (1951) |
"An above average MGM musical, highlighted by Astaire's amazing dance on the ceiling." |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
Ruggles of Red Gap (1935) |
"Laughton in one of his finest roles." |
|
The Rules of Attraction (2002) |
|||
Tomato 4/5 |

|
Splat 2/5 |
Runaway (1984) |
"A weak s-f offering." |
|
The Rundown (2003) |
|||
Tomato 4/5 |
Running on Empty (1988) |
"A touching, forgotten drama about a family of radicals still running from the consequences of their actions. River Phoenix, Lahti and Hirsch all are wonderful. A must-see." |
|
Tomato 4/5 |
Ruthless People (1986) |
"A wonderful cynical comedy filled with mean-spirited, but humorous, zest. Loads of fun!" |
