Tomato 4/5 |
V For Vendetta (2005) |
"So gorgeously visual and thematically resonant that we don't really mind if the characters are a bit shallow." |
Rich Cline |
Tomato 3/5 |
Va Savoir (2001) |
"Yet another long, meandering, talky French film may not be your first choice for escapist entertainment. But there's some terrific stuff in this one." |
Rich Cline |
Splat 2/5 |
Vacancy (2007) |
"Starts well but never goes anywhere with its grisly set-up." |
Rich Cline |
Tomato 4/5 |
Valentin (2004) |
"A very clever screenplay that somehow manages to be both hilariously funny and surprisingly poignant at the same time." |
Rich Cline |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Valiant (2005) |
"A disarmingly enjoyable movie with a lively cast of characters and an action-packed plot based (very roughly!) on real-life events" |
Rich Cline |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Valkyrie (2008) |
"Another astonishing true story gets the Hollywood treatment and ends up being rather flattened in the process" |
Rich Cline |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Van Helsing (2004) |
"There's only one problem with this thunderously entertaining action romp: The budget is two times too big!" |
Rich Cline |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Vanilla Sky (2001) |
"As the story gets darker and heavier, the film really grabs hold in a powerful way, as long as we can let ourselves be carried along until the complex conclusion." |
Rich Cline |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Vanity Fair (2004) |
"Even though the central stories are compelling, dividing the film between them means we never have anyone to grab hold of." |
Rich Cline |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Vantage Point (2008) |
"There's an interesting idea here, showing a major political event from various perspectives until we finally get to the real story. The problem is that the real story is rather contrived." |
Rich Cline |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
Vengeance Is Mine (1979) |
"Gripping and haunting, it's a strikingly timeless film." |
Rich Cline |
Tomato 4/5 |
Vengo (2001) |
"challenging and engaging" |
Rich Cline |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
Venus (2006) |
"Witty dialog and a strong story keep it thoroughly entertaining, as do the sparky performances." |
Rich Cline |
Tomato 5/5 |
Vera Drake (2004) |
"Mike Leigh is still making films that bristle with honesty and life, fearlessly tackling issues that other filmmakers won't touch." |
Rich Cline |

Veronica Guerin (2003) |
"Blanchett holds the film together gorgeously.... Because of this, you can almost forgive Schumacher for badly over-egging the story." |

Very Annie Mary (2001) |
"Each person and event is so peculiar that as it goes on the warm humour begins to grate on our nerves." |
Rich Cline |
Tomato 4/5 |
A Very British Gangster (2008) |
"It's easy to forget this is a documentary. The central character wouldn't seem out of place in almost any British crime drama--he'd actually liven most of them up." |
Rich Cline |
Splat 2.5/5 |
A Very Long Engagement (2004) |
"[Jeunet's] choppy, cheeky filmmaking style simply isn't suited to this remarkable wartime tale about the tenacity of love." |
Rich Cline |
Tomato 3/5 |
The Very Thought of You (1998) |
"Enjoyable but uneven." |
Rich Cline |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Vexille (2007) |
"A flood of visual inventiveness keeps us watching this futuristic animated action thriller ... even if it feels a bit derivative and thin." |
Rich Cline |
Tomato 4/5 |
Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008) |
"Even with his weaker movies, Woody Allen is more astute than about 80 percent of filmmakers out there." |
Rich Cline |
Tomato 5/5 |
Victor/Victoria (1982) |
"absolutely wonderful!" |

Tomato 4/5 |
The Village (2004) |
"A powerful tale of isolationism, a desire for innocence and hope, and a fear of the unknown." |
Rich Cline |
Splat 2/5 |
Vinyan (2008) |
"A vivid example of style over substance, this textured film creates an overwhelming sense of emotion and dread, but never manages to find a point to it all. It merely gives into the grisliness, leaving us shaken and unstirred." |
Rich Cline |
Tomato 3/5 |
The Virgin Suicides (1999) |
"An extremely sure-handed filmmaking debut from Coppola, daughter of Francis. Her script alone is a marvel of subtlety and intelligence." |
Rich Cline |
Tomato 3/5 |
Vision Quest (1985) |
"sappy but enjoyable" |
Rich Cline |
Splat 2/5 |
Viva (2008) |
"Reported parallels with the Marquis de Sade’s Justine just don’t wash. It’s more like Russ Meyer, except the jugs on view aren’t as big." |
Derek Malcolm |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Viva (2008) |
"This film is such an outrageously colourful homage to 1970s sexploitation cinema that it's impossible not to enjoy, even with the over-the-top performances and rambling narrative." |
Rich Cline |
