Splat
B-

A Scanner Darkly (2006)

"Much like someone who doesn't realize how high he is, A Scanner Darkly talks too much and doesn't say enough."

Chris Vognar

Tomato
B+

A Tout de Suite (2005)

"Compellingly directed, beautifully acted and exquisitely photographed in black and white, the film rightly has the impact of truth."

Philip Wuntch

Tomato

A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001)

"During this summer of replicants, it shines as an original work of art."

Philip Wuntch

Splat
C-

Abandon (2002)

"[The title's] unintentional effect is to presage the sense of torment the viewer experiences as he or she is buried deep inside the movie's unrewarding ramblings."

Tom Maurstad

Tomato
B

ABC Africa (2002)

"The you-are-there style ultimately enhances ABC Africa's ability to get inside the soul of Uganda, and of the viewer."

Chris Vognar

Tomato
B+

About a Boy (2002)

"About a Boy pulls off the savvy trick of teaching life lessons without making you gag on them."

Chris Vognar

Tomato

About Adam (2001)

"A glowing Hudson radiates high spirits, and Mr. Townsend ... makes his chameleon character seem credible."

Jane Sumner

Tomato
A

About Schmidt (2002)

"Schmidt's ponderings will touch every demographic. Like all our lives, his is hilarious and tragic, filled with probing thoughts and whimsical nonsense."

Philip Wuntch

Tomato
B-

Accepted (2006)

Tomato
3.5/5

Adam (2009)

"The two of them look terrific together, too -- enough so that you wish someone would cast them together in a much better movie."

Cary Darling

Tomato
C+

Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights (2002)

"If you're burnt out on It's a Wonderful Life marathons and bored with A Christmas Carol, it might just be the movie you're looking for. It depends on how well flatulence gags fit into your holiday concept."

Gary Dowell

Tomato
A-

Adaptation (2002)

"A daring and gleeful rearrangement of film grammar and a zinging ode to the imagination."

Chris Vognar

Tomato
B

Adrenaline Rush (2004)

"Educational as well as thrilling."

Matt Weitz

Tomato
B

Adventureland (2009)

"There's no mistaking Mottola's sincerity or his talent."

Christopher Kelly

Splat

The Adventures Of Elmo In Grouchland (1999)

"An appeal that tops out at about age 4."

Nancy Churnin

Splat

The Adventures of Felix (2001)

"We realize early on that nothing much is going to happen ... and it's hard to stay fully engaged with a film that, frontal nudity notwithstanding, plays it so safe."

Tom Sime

Splat
D-

The Adventures of Pluto Nash (2002)

"An air of desperation hovers over each episode of the incoherent story line."

Philip Wuntch

Tomato
A

The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938)

"Sumptuous and highly energetic, The Adventures of Robin Hood is grand with a capital 'G' on every level."

Gary Dowell

Tomato

The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle (2000)

"There's enough subversive intelligence poking through the surface of Rocky and Bullwinkle to make fans smile through the rest of the dross."

Chris Vognar

Tomato
B+

Adventures of Sharkboy and Lava Girl in 3-D (2005)

"Not only is it empowering to kids just learning to trust their own ideas, but, like Spy Kids, it reminds kids that fighting is not always the answer."

Nancy Churnin

Tomato
B+

Aeon Flux (2005)

"There's no way to say it but to come right out with it: Aeon Flux is a good movie. Actually, it's a really good movie."

Tom Maurstad

Tomato

The Affair of the Necklace (2001)

"Hilary Swank and Simon Baker make an especially attractive couple who have several electrifying moments onscreen."

Charles Ealy

Splat
C-

After the Sunset (2004)

"Thoroughly unremarkable."

Chris Vognar

Tomato
C+

Against the Ropes (2003)

"Far from a championship movie, but it's fun while it lasts."

Philip Wuntch

Tomato
B-

Agent Cody Banks (2003)

"Is it entertaining? You bet."

Nancy Churnin

Splat
C-

Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London (2004)

"So, will your kids like this same old song with British scenery? Possibly, if they liked the last one, but a little less-so."

Nancy Churnin

Tomato
B

The Agronomist (2004)

"A lively, illuminating homage to an extraordinary man of courage, whose cry for his beloved country got him killed."

Jane Sumner

Tomato
B-

Aimee & Jaguar (2000)

"A vivid slice of life -- and love -- during the 1944 Allied bombardment of Berlin."

Jane Sumner

Tomato
B

AKA (2002)

"Does the radical choice to split up the action contribute anything that couldn't be achieved in a more traditional format? The answer is a well-earned affirmative, and the drama is solid enough to make the whole enterprise worthwhile."

Chris Vognar

Tomato
B+

Akeelah and the Bee (2006)

"Producers, including Mark Cuban and Starbucks, should be commended for putting their money behind a film that, like Akeelah herself, dares to be different."

Nancy Churnin

Tomato
B

The Alamo (2004)

"An action film of intelligence and compassion."

Philip Wuntch

Splat
D

Alex and Emma (2003)

"Staleness smothers virtually every scene of Alex & Emma."

Philip Wuntch

Splat
C

Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker (2006)

"Yes, we've got brand new blond junior and grown-up Bonds this season, but the toughest task for Baby Bond could be finding an audience."

Nancy Churnin

Splat
C

Alexander (2004)

"Alexander has aspirations of greatness, hoping to be christened an intellectual super-spectacle for brainy moviegoers. The sad truth is that it will probably numb more brain cells than it will stimulate."

Philip Wuntch

Tomato
B

Alfie (2004)

" Like its title character, the movie doesn't strive for depth. But it's stylish and, yes, also charming."

Philip Wuntch

Tomato

Ali (2001)

"Loaded with bravura filmmaking flourishes, and exceptional performances."

Chris Vognar

Tomato
B

Alias Betty (2002)

"Understated, elegant meditation on motherhood, obligation and coincidence, all wrapped up in the form of an urban thriller."

Matt Weitz

Splat
C+

Alien Trespass (2009)

"While there's a lot to admire, it all feels like an engaging though needless academic exercise."

Cary Darling

Splat
D+

Alien vs. Predator (2004)

"A transparent attempt to jumpstart two run-down franchises."

Gary Dowell

Tomato
B+

Alien: The Director's Cut (2003)

"The Alien director's cut should work well for longtime fans and first-time viewers alike."

Chris Vognar

Tomato
A-

Aliens of the Deep (2005)

"The 48-minute spellbinder will make your jaw drop with awe. And, like the best documentaries, it will also make you think."

Philip Wuntch

Tomato
A

All About Eve (1950)

"Mankiewicz's 1950 gem is a wickedly cynical cocktail of laughter and deceit in which everyone has an angle to play."

Chris Vognar

Tomato
B-

All About the Benjamins (2002)

"For much of its running time, All About the Benjamins is good, sleazy fun."

Philip Wuntch

Tomato
B+

All or Nothing (2002)

"The more you think about the movie, the more you will probably like it."

Philip Wuntch

Tomato

All Over the Guy (2001)

"It may not be totally fresh and original, but All Over the Guy is nearly void of gay stereotypes."

Jane Sumner

Splat
D+

All The King's Men (2006)

"Watching All the King's Men's downward tumble makes for perverse fun, with the emphasis on perverse."

Philip Wuntch

Tomato

All the Pretty Horses (2000)

"Comes close to evoking the book's haunting power, its comedy, wisdom and pain about childhoods passing."

Jane Sumner

Tomato
B

All the Real Girls (2003)

"A love story for those who cannot tolerate the phoniness of Hollywood romance movies, one that deftly avoids melodrama and manipulation in favor of raw emotion."

Gary Dowell

Tomato

Almost Famous (2000)

"Almost Famous is that rarity -- a movie that's great fun to watch and even more fun in retrospect."

Philip Wuntch

Splat
F

Alone in the Dark (2005)

"If nothing else, Alone in the Dark proves that it's possible to 'dumb down' a video game."

Philip Wuntch
