Splat D	The Adventures of Ociee Nash (2002)	"Attempts to reflect the times, loaded as it is with southern aphorisms and slang, but the results are forced and clunky."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato B-	Adventures of Sharkboy and Lava Girl in 3-D (2005)	"The juvenile inspiration gives the film its creative spark, making it the coolest home movie project imaginable for a father and son."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat C-	After the Sunset (2004)	"The dialogue mimics the terseness [of Elmore Leonard's work] without the snap or humor. Almost every word sounds recycled from another movie."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato A-	After The Wedding (2007)	"After the Wedding's anguished portrait of family, charity, and mortality peels back layers in the characters that defy their easy categorization."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato B+	Air Guitar Nation (2007)	"This very funny film should get audiences strumming along on their own air guitars and flashing devil horns in support of these masters of mock rock."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato B-	Alfie (2004)	"[Law's] timeless good looks and effortless charisma make him the kind of leading man that Hollywood would produce from genetic experiments if they could."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat F	Alone in the Dark (2005)	"Boll�s vague X-Files rip-off isn�t scary or exciting, but inadvertently he�s made a movie funnier than a lot of the purported comedies Hollywood cranks out."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat D-	Alpha Dog (2007)	"Alpha Dog's characters adopt poses that they've seen on television and in the movies, and the same goes for the young cast hamming it up as if they watched their Scarface DVDs too many times in preparation."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat D+	American Dreamz (2006)	"There's the seed of a good satire in American Dreamz, but the film flops spectacularly due to a poorly written screenplay."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato B	American Gangster (2007)	"As a showcase for Washington and Crowe, American Gangster does not disappoint."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato B-	The Animation Show 2005 (2005)	"The Animation Show serves as a corrective to the limited views of what animation is and provides an avenue for worthy short subjects to be seen on a wider scale."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat C	Answering the Call (2005)	"(The film's) noble intentions are unquestionable, but the scattershot reporting keeps it from amounting to little more than a string of too-similar witness testimonies."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato B	Anvil! The Story of Anvil (2009)	"An affectionate portrait rather than a sad, derisive takedown, Anvil! The Story of Anvil finds inspiration in the passion and tenacity these aging metalheads display."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat C+	Aquamarine (2006)	"Aquamarine is pleasant enough and perfect for its target demographic, but it's a run of the mill movie that wouldn't stand out among the various cable TV offerings for its audience."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat C+	Are We Done Yet? (2007)	"No one will mistake Ice Cube's comic timing for Cary Grant's, but this remake of the 1948 RKO comedy Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House is a moderately amusing family film, if not a terribly inspired one."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato B+	The Aristocrats (2005)	"The Aristocrats is an unrepentantly filthy movie...and a very funny one."	Mark Pfeiffer
Splat C-	Around the Bend (2004)	"Oozes sentimentality for the plight of these mildly eccentric characters... The problem isn�t the film�s gooey center but the flavorless, formulaic substance surrounding it."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato B-	Assault on Precinct 13 (2005)	"Rudely funny and gleefully violent, the film is a wound-up genre exercise that doesn�t dip even a toe into reality but is a good time if you can get past that."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato B-	The Astronaut Farmer (2007)	"With The Astronaut Farmer writer-director Michael Polish and his co-writer brother Mark continue a foray into American mythmaking that began with Northfork."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato A	Atonement (2007)	"Atonement is an exquisitely crafted film bursting with the possibilities that cinema has to offer."	Mark Pfeiffer
Tomato A	The Aviator (2004)	"This is a thrilling picture that merges [Scorsese's] gritty style and his adoration of old-fashioned Hollywood. The production design alone makes the film a must-see."	Mark Pfeiffer
