Tomato

K-19: The Widowmaker (2002)

"The film pays tribute to those involved without a hint of pretension."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato

K-Pax (2001)

"It's extremely satisfying watching [Spacey] here. Moreover, the always-underrated Bridges compliments him well."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3/4

Kamikaze Girls (2005)

"Nakashima never allows the story to set foot in any kind of reality, and keeps the comic book panels flashing by."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato

Kandahar (2001)

"Offers filmgoers an astonishingly well-timed chance to learn the truth about the world today."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3/4

Kansas City (1996)

"Robert Altman brings us an effective, if minor, crime film filled with the jazz sounds of Count Basie and Lester Young."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato

Kansas City Confidential (1952)

"An amazing little film."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato

Katzelmacher (1969)

"Fassbinder's second film feels rarely moves, but simmers with a kind of rancid, unnamable anger."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3/4

Keane (2004)

"A surprise, and a highly effective film, much more accomplished and less punishing than Clean, Shaven."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Splat

Kedma (2002)

"The characters prove nothing more than patchy sketches and the drama simply evaporates."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3/4

Keeping the Faith (2000)

"A slight and uneven but very charming romantic comedy."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3/4

Kekexeli: Mountain Patrol (2006)

"A rugged, old-fashioned adventure tale."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3/4

Ken Park (2002)

"Because the filmmakers cook up an equal number of touching sequences to match their disturbing ones, their portrait of disturbed America comes through clearly and effectively."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Kicking & Screaming (1995)

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Splat
.5/4

Kicking and Screaming (2005)

"Kicking and Screaming feels as if it were callously vomited out by a machine, along with a couple of spare parts and some putrid grease."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

-

The Kid Brother (1927)

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato

The Kid Stays in the Picture (2002)

"Excellent showbiz documentary."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato

Kidnapped (1974)

"Definitely one of Bava's more pessimistic films, but it shows just how far the master was capable of stretching into a more realistic, less expressionistic palate."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
4/4

Kiki's Delivery Service (1989)

"One of the very best animated films ever made."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3.5/4

Kikujiro (2000)

"Filtered through Kitano's distant and deadpan touch, the material works, and it works well."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato

Kill Baby Kill (1966)

"Bava has never presented his moods so vividly and with such effervescence."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
4/4

Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004)

"Kill Bill is a triumphant achievement in American film, a cut-and-paste epic celebrating the crudest and most noblest human traits."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
4/4

The Killer (1989)

"Woo has cited Sam Peckinpah and Martin Scorsese as two of his influences, but he has established a touch all his own."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
4/4

Killer of Sheep (1977)

"If this film had been more widely available, it would have a secure place not only as the greatest achievement in African-American cinema but also as one of the great achievements in cinema, period."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato

Killer's Kiss (1955)

"Frankly, it's a pretty wretched story, but this small, cheap film has style to spare."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
4/4

The Killers (1946)

"Siodmak's crafty direction emphasizes shadows, dark rooms and the feel of stale cigarettes, booze and general hoplelessness."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
4/4

The Killers (1964)

"Movie remakes seem to be pouring out faster and more frequently than ever before, and it's rare that a remake gets even close to an original, much less equals it or surpasses it."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
4/4

The Killing (1956)

"Stanley Kubrick's third film established him as a full-fledged filmmaker and a potential master."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato

The Killing of a Chinese Bookie (1976)

"This is my favorite John Cassavetes movie, perhaps because it's the most appealingly sleazy."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Splat

Killshot (2009)

"The film's biggest problem is not that it's a disaster, but that it's merely tepid and dull."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato

Kind Hearts and Coronets (1950)

"Easily the most beloved and durable film from the Ealing stable."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3/4

The King (2006)

"Dense with religious allegory, The King is so bizarre and so sly even the Catholic Church didn't know whether to ban it or not."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

-

The King and I (1999)

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Splat
1/4

King Arthur (2004)

"Unfortunately, the legend was a whole lot more fun and interesting than what we get here; "King Arthur" plays more like a stupid Hollywood action movie than a true story."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3/4

King Corn (2007)

"King Corn becomes an indispensable supplement to Spurlock's Super Size Me."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

-

A King in New York (1957)

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato

The King is Alive (2001)

"Mostly deserves the hype."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
4/4

King Kong (1933)

"It's one of the rare, great works of art that stands up to endless repeated viewings, each time revealing something new."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3.5/4

King Kong (2005)

"Jackson balances these tender moments with slam-bang action sequences the likes of which haven't been seen since Jurassic Park or Titanic -- and surpasses them."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
4/4

The King of Comedy (1982)

"This bizarre work is one of Martin Scorsese's greatest and most underrated films."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3.5/4

The King Of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (2007)

"The film magnificently, and almost inadvertently, captures the story of the American Dream."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

-

King of New York (1990)

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Splat
2/4

The Kingdom (2007)

"The Kingdom is topical, but remove the setting, and you're left with a relatively brain-dead thriller."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Splat
1/4

Kingdom of Heaven (2005)

"Kingdom of Heaven has at its center a bold story, and yet it sits there like a stone pillar."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Splat
2.5/4

Kings and Queen (2005)

"I can't quite get my head around it; Ismael is too cartoony and Nora is too icy."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Splat
1/4

Kinky Boots (2006)

"[An] utterly vapid distillation of a "true story," crammed into the tired old Full Monty formula."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3/4

Kinsey (2004)

"In a sense, Neeson's performance is not as grand as many biopics allow or require, because the actor is generous enough to share his spotlight with others."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato

Kippur (2000)

"A near-masterpiece."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato

A Kiss Before Dying (1956)

"Oswald, who never graduated past B-movies and television, makes masterful use of the frame, pitting his dark thriller elements against a full-color, widescreen frame."

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Tomato
3.5/4

Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang (2005)

"This is the kind of dialogue that sparks our three actors into zany life."

Jeffrey M. Anderson
