|
|
About Adam (2001) |
|
"There's more than enough freshness of place and keenness of observation to justify this movie's existence." | |
Robert Horton | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Across the Universe (2007) |
|
"...the long and winding road that is Julie Taymor's opulent, eye-filling, and disappointingly uninvolving musical extravaganza..." | |
Jonathan F. Richards | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988) |
|
"...probably the purest expression of Gilliam's Rococo imagination..." | |
Mark Bourne | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
The Adventures Of Elmo In Grouchland (1999) |
|
"If you have an Elmo fan in your life, Elmo In Grouchland is a must." | |
Tom Keogh | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994) |
|
"The year's one clear candidate for future cult status." | |
Lucy Mohl | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle (2000) |
|
"Just take it as seriously as the filmmakers did, and you'll do fine." | |
Sean Means | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
After The Wedding (2007) |
|
"One of the more interesting themes of this movie is the question of which is more important to a cause, the man or the money." | |
Jonathan F. Richards | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Aimee & Jaguar (2000) |
|
"Its series of quiet but moving realizations of the utter ubiquity of the Nazi horror in every single aspect of life, even something as hidden as a sexual sub-culture, is powerful indeed." | |
Peter Brunette | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Alice Neel (2007) |
|
"If the artist is an elusive target, the art is as sharp as a razor blade. The portraits are extraordinary." | |
Jonathan F. Richards | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Alien 3 (1992) |
|
"May satisfy fans of the earlier films ... but it won't win any new converts." | |
John Hartl | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Alien Resurrection (1997) |
|
"So campy that it almost plays like a sendup of the series. It is to 'Alien' what 'The Bride of Frankenstein' was to other 1930s Frankenstein movies, and it even shares some of the same themes." | |
John Hartl | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Alien Resurrection (1997) |
|
"A lot of fun to watch, and easy to surrender to in the moment." | |
Mary Brennan | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Aliens (1986) |
|
""Absolutely smashing!"" | |
John Hartl | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
All About My Mother (1999) |
|
"Nothing short of a triumph." | |
Peter Brunette | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
All Over Me (1997) |
|
"Less successful at portraying indecision than it is at inducing boredom." | |
John Hartl | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
All Over Me (1997) |
|
"Its blunt reprocessing of contemporary sacred cows in film realism ... rings false, the work of a user opting out of the imagination business." | |
Tom Keogh | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
All the Pretty Horses (2000) |
|
"It's like a bus tour of McCarthy's West, with Thornton the tour guide quickly driving past every landmark before his lunch break." | |
Sean Means | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Almost Famous (2000) |
|
"A triumph of personal filmmaking ... because it exhibits the care and specificity of an artist working through his own mind, not through a committee's idea of what a movie should be." | |
Robert Horton | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Almost Famous (2000) |
|
"In a wondrous, often beautiful way, that kind of [complete] honesty is the point of Crowe's new film." | |
Tom Keogh | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Along Came a Spider (2001) |
|
"Potter doesn't resemble a Secret Service agent in any significant way, but so little in this movie rings true that it hardly matters." | |
Robert Horton | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
American Beauty (1999) |
|
"Hilarious, slightly sick, and super-edgy." | |
Peter Brunette | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
American Beauty (1999) |
|
"If it is never really as profound as it seems to think it is, American Beauty is consistently entertaining." | |
Robert Horton | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
American Gangster (2007) |
|
"How much truth we get in the movie version is hard to say...nobody much cares if it's gospel, as long as it's riveting. Here, alas, it is not." | |
Jonathan F. Richards | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
American History X (1998) |
|
"American History X pulls open the wound of American racism and peers inside!" | |
Norman Green | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
American Pie (1999) |
|
"The actors are pure Hollywood, with every grin, spoken line, or sad face springing from acting classes and the closely studied performances of other actors." | |
Ernest Hardy | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
American Pie (1999) |
|
"Any kind of conversation, such as the boys' gatherings at a diner, is beyond the powers of filmmaking brothers Paul and Chris Weitz." | |
Robert Horton | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
American Pie (1999) |
|
"American Pie is a pretty despicable slice of high-school life." | |
Sean Means | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
The American President (1995) |
|
"Painless fun." | |
John Hartl | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
The American President (1995) |
|
"The American President becomes a pretty darn entertaining and affecting movie after its first simpering 20 minutes." | |
Paula Nechak | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
The American President (1995) |
|
"The American President will make you laugh and make you smile. But it probably won't make you change your vote." | |
Sean Means | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
The American President (1995) |
|
"When it comes right down to it, high office does not guarantee high comedy." | |
Susan Rathke | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
The American President (1995) |
|
"You can't dislike this movie, but you won't be swept away by it either." | |
Tom Keogh | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
American Psycho (2000) |
|
"Harron's adaptation of Ellis's novel is brilliant, probably better than the book itself." | |
Peter Brunette | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Amores Perros (2001) |
|
"Amores Perros (Love's a Bitch) is a great new film from Mexico that proves that somebody, somewhere, is still making upsetting, enthralling movies." | |
Peter Brunette | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Analyze This (1998) |
|
"As the movie plods on, the jokes start to fall flat." | |
Sean Means | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Angel Eyes (2001) |
|
"It's just that kind of movie, perfect for a certain mood, for guilt-free wallowing in a star-crossed tale of romance." | |
Tom Keogh | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Angel-A (2007) |
|
"Familiar situations and trite dialogue give this movie the feel of something freeze-dried and reconstituted." | |
Jonathan F. Richards | |
|
|
|
| |
3/10 |
|
Angela's Ashes (1999) |
|
"I'm sure the producers of Angela's Ashes meant well, but they got the wrong guy to direct it." | |
Peter Brunette | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
The Animal (2001) |
|
"It's just not funny." | |
Mary Brennan | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Animal Factory (2000) |
|
"The bleakness and myriad cruelties of the prison system are telegraphed with a graceful touch." | |
Ernest Hardy | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Anna and the King (1999) |
|
"Tennant seems genuinely unsure what mood he's striving for here." | |
Gemma Files | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Anna and the King (1999) |
|
"Disappointing." | |
John Hartl | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Anna and the King (1999) |
|
"This may be the best and healthiest date movie of the season." | |
Tom Keogh | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Anne Frank Remembered (1995) |
|
"Anne Frank Remembered tells the audience very little about Anne, but the film speaks volumes concerning the problematic aspects of Holocaust representation." | |
Carrie Gorringe | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Anne Frank Remembered (1995) |
|
"The interviews constitute the emotional backbone. The mere existence of these survivors is eloquent testimony to events so cruel they defy belief." | |
Dominique Dibbell | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Anne Frank Remembered (1995) |
|
"Anne's story of courage in the face of horrendous circumstances is a fine legacy, and Anne Frank Remembered reaffirms how relevant her message is today." | |
Gillian Gaar | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Anne Frank Remembered (1995) |
|
"Of all the movies and television productions that have told her story, this is the most valuable and satisfying." | |
John Hartl | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Anne Frank Remembered (1995) |
|
"If this is not the best film about the Holocaust, it does strongly chronicle the sad fate of one of its most famous victims." | |
Keith Simanton | |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Anne Frank Remembered (1995) |
|
"In retracing the short life and grotesque death of the century's best known diarist, Anna Frank, it has its own private dignity." | |
Lyall Bush | |
