5/5	" Climb on and you'll experience one of the great joys of moviegoing: seeing something that's like nothing you've ever seen before." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Nov 10, 2004	The Polar Express (2004)	57%
1/5	" The story becomes a long slog because Duigan doesn't define his characters and because he's determined to touch too many of the familiar '30s European bases." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Nov 5, 2004	Head in the Clouds (2004)	15%
3/5	" The supporting cast of females (and Epps) is fun to watch, and the film boasts three original songs by Mick Jagger and Dave Stewart." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Nov 5, 2004	Alfie (2004)	49%
4/5	" Neither a deep, psychological thriller nor a mindless slasher flick, this is one skillfully made, if admittedly superficial, creepout." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Oct 29, 2004	Saw (2004)	46%
4/5	" Foxx helps us to truly understand how much Charles' blindness allows him to achieve, especially when combined with an innate wiliness." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Oct 29, 2004	Ray (2004)	82%
2/5	" Possibly, this idea would have worked as comedy. Say, if the kid had said something like, 'I am dead people.'" -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Oct 29, 2004	Birth (2004)	40%
2/5	" This premise sounds like the sort of a screwy, non-idea that a young film student might dream up while editing a documentary. And according to the press notes, that's just what happened." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Oct 15, 2004	The Final Cut (2004)	38%
3/5	" The central idea -- that losing yourself in a small, private world can help you to better engage the larger world -- isn't lost in translation." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Oct 15, 2004	Shall We Dance? (2004)	48%
2/5	" A documentary that doesn't always seem to be sure what it's documenting." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Oct 12, 2004	Monster Road (2004)	86%
2/5	" The film goes on too long, repeats itself and has a reality-TV tendency to wallow in the tawdry." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Oct 8, 2004	Rockets Redglare! (2003)	33%
2/5	" Amid the white walls and slick surfaces of this film, the characters seem more like lab rats than human beings." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Oct 8, 2004	Code 46 (2004)	52%
2/5	" Has there ever been less chemistry between the stars of a 'buddy' movie?" -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Oct 6, 2004	Taxi (2004)	11%
3/5	" We Don't Live Here Anymore is, you might say, a movie for adults who are, perhaps, a smidge too impressed with being adults." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Oct 1, 2004	We Don't Live Here Anymore (2004)	65%
3/5	" For victims of abuse, watching this film may be a cathartic experience. For most moviegoers, it is, at its best, a sober look at a problem that is at last getting some of the attention it has always deserved." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Oct 1, 2004	Woman, Thou Art Loosed (2004)	51%
4/5	" A briny, buoyant offer that you can't refuse." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Oct 1, 2004	Shark Tale (2004)	33%
4/5	" A low-key, low-budget thriller that reminds us just how cruel young people can be." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Sep 24, 2004	Mean Creek (2004)	90%
3/5	" If you yearn for a Brit fix, this is your flick. If not, think twice before checking it out." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Sep 24, 2004	Bright Young Things (2004)	65%
2/5	" Not even Holmes can elevate this pap." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Sep 24, 2004	First Daughter (2004)	9%
5/5	" Zombies or no zombies, this is the funniest film of the year." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Sep 24, 2004	Shaun of the Dead (2004)	91%
4/5	" You could wind up with whiplash watching this film, and that's a compliment." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Sep 24, 2004	The Forgotten (2004)	31%
3/5	" Zhou Yu's Train has its strengths, but it's clearly no bullet train." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Sep 17, 2004	Zhou Yu's Train (2004)	41%
2/5	" Balsmeyer may remind you of the guy at the party who, after one too many shots, puts a lampshade on his head. It's funny for maybe a moment -- until you realize, to your horror, that he doesn't know when to stop." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Sep 17, 2004	Danny Deckchair (2004)	54%
3/5	" There is something compelling about the way this film sneakily taps into our collective psychosexual fantasies." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Sep 10, 2004	Gozu (2004)	72%
5/5	" Observant, touching, funny and smart." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Sep 10, 2004	Evergreen (2004)	44%
3/5	" What comes across most strongly is how utterly trivial so much of this story now seems. Can we really have spent all that time, money and energy chewing over a land deal and worrying about a presidential dalliance?" -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Sep 3, 2004	The Hunting of the President (2004)	73%
2/5	" After watching this chilly film, you won't cry for Argentina so much as you'll be scratching your head about it." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Sep 3, 2004	The Blonds (2004)	63%
5/5	" [Nair] clearly loves these characters, the kind and unkind alike. And the proof of this is that she makes them all so marvelously vivid." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Sep 1, 2004	Vanity Fair (2004)	50%
4/5	" What's at stake in Intimate Strangers is something quite small: The relationship between two lonely people. We care because Leconte helps us to understand their isolation, and we end up sharing their thirst for human contact." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Aug 27, 2004	Intimate Strangers (2004)	87%
1/5	" After watching this film you feel that you've aged a thousand years." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Aug 27, 2004	Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid (2004)	26%
1/5	" Plenty violent. And bloody. And gory. What it isn't -- not really -- is scary." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Aug 23, 2004	Exorcist: The Beginning (2004)	11%
4/5	" Cleverly written, sensitively directed and very well-acted." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Aug 20, 2004	Garden State (2004)	87%
2/5	" This is the kind of comedy in which the aim is to make the audience cringe." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Aug 20, 2004	Without A Paddle (2004)	14%
2/5	" Parents ... are more likely to experience the film as a blend of clumsy slapstick and mind-numbing bathos." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Aug 20, 2004	Benji Off the Leash (2004)	32%
3/5	" Despite some very good acting in most roles, the people on the screen seem like types with labels." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Aug 13, 2004	A Home at the End of the World (2004)	49%
4/5	" May be the funniest out-and-out comedy of the summer." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Aug 13, 2004	Shaolin Soccer (2002)	91%
4/5	" We're served up meaty, often spicy, slices of sadly wasted lives." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Aug 13, 2004	Carandiru (2004)	68%
2/5	" So lame." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Aug 11, 2004	Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement (2004)	27%
3/5	" Yet another lackluster late-summer thriller." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Aug 6, 2004	Collateral (2004)	86%
2/5	" One of those annoyingly coy romantic comedies in which people try to improve their relationships by deceiving and investigating each other." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Aug 6, 2004	Little Black Book (2004)	22%
5/5	" A richer experience than the original." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Jul 30, 2004	Before Sunset (2004)	94%
2/5	" *Aside from possibly launching a Ben Kingsley line of cosmetics, Thunderbirds* seems destined to leave no lasting mark.*" -- Orlando Sentinel* Posted Jul 30, 2004	Thunderbirds (2004)	19%
3/5	" Crude, tasteless, sophomoric and crass. It is also, sometimes, funny." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Jul 30, 2004	Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle (2004)	73%
3/5	" An affectionate biographical documentary." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Jul 23, 2004	Superstar in a Housedress (2004)	100%
5/5	" It challenges you to figure out how you feel about the people on the screen -- emotionally, intellectually, morally." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Jul 23, 2004	The Mother (2004)	78%
1/5	" Arguably the worst superhero film ever made." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Jul 23, 2004	Catwoman (2004)	10%
3/5	" A quiet film." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Jul 16, 2004	The Return (2004)	96%
3/5	" While it isn't always easy to get used to the slower natural rhythms this film celebrates, its cumulative effect is undeniable." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Jul 16, 2004	The Story of the Weeping Camel (2004)	95%
3/5	" Porter's songs keep much the film afloat when, otherwise, it would have sunk. No matter how turgid or murky the movie becomes, when the music starts, you're flying." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Jul 16, 2004	De-Lovely (2004)	49%
1/5	" This witless little comedy takes the classic fairy tale and turns it into a Hilary Duff vehicle about popularity, e-mail and cell phones at a San Fernando Valley high school." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Jul 16, 2004	A Cinderella Story (2004)	10%
2/5	" If the pre-adolescents in your life don't have anything better to do than watch this movie, maybe the time has come to teach them hopscotch." -- Orlando Sentinel Posted Jul 9, 2004	Sleepover (2004)	15%
