A Scanner Darkly (2006) |

Accepted (2006) |
"Average comedy that's low on jokes and doesn't quite live up to its premise, though it remains watchable thanks to a charming performance by Justin Long." |
Matthew Turner |
Splat 1/5 |
The Accidental Husband (2009) |
"Dismal romantic comedy that gets everything wrong, thanks to an appalling script, bad performances, embarrassing stereotypes, zero chemistry between the leads and painfully unfunny jokes." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 5/5 |
Across the Universe (2007) |
"Julie Taymor's love-it-or-hate-it musical is hugely ambitious but it works brilliantly, thanks to strong performances, a fantastic script, terrifically integrated songs and Taymor's inspired direction." |

Adam (2009) |
"Adam remains watchable thanks to credible performances from its two leads, but it fails to satisfy on an emotional level and could have been a lot better." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 4/5 |
Adaptation (2002) |
"A brilliantly acted, extremely clever (perhaps too clever), multi-layered film that will repay several viewings." |
Matthew Turner |
Tomato 4/5 |
Adoration (2009) |
"Typically dense and complex drama from Atom Egoyan that's as satisfying as completing a jigsaw puzzle." |

Aeon Flux (2005) |
"Theron looks terrific and the cast do the best they can with the material they're given, but someone really should have written Aeon a snappy comeback or two." |

Afterschool (2009) |
"The excellent script touches fascinating themes (notably the abject hypocrisy of the school staff) and also manages to convey a moment of pure emotional devastation more acutely than any number of Hollywood teen flicks." |

Akeelah and the Bee (2006) |

Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker (2006) |
"The colourful cast have a lot of fun with their slightly cartoonish roles, particularly Bill Nighy and Missi Pyle as Sayle's henchwoman." |
Matthew Turner |
Splat 2/5 |
Alexander (2004) |
"Colin Farrell is woefully miscast in the lead, but that's the least of Alexander's problems because the film is a disaster on an epic scale: sprawling, messy, incoherent and an early contender for one of the worst movies of 2005." |

Alien Autopsy (2006) |

Aliens in the Attic (2009) |
"Watchable family sci-fi comedy with at least one hilarious and rather brilliant set-piece, but there's never really any sense of danger or jeopardy so it's not quite as exciting as it should have been." |
