AUTHOR
  
  
4/4
     A Scanner Darkly (2006)      "The first film to capture the author's transience and his art."       Amy Biancolli  
  
3/4
     A Tout de Suite (2005)      "[Isild Le Besco] has an unusual look and the ability to appear unformed, hard, vulnerable and sexy all at once."       Eric Harrison  
        A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001)      "It ends up a glorious failure, an impressive mess."       Eric Harrison  
   --      Abandon (2002)      Click here to see the review.         
   --      ABC Africa (2002)      Click here to see the review.         
   --      About a Boy (2002)      Click here to see the review.         
  
B+
     About Schmidt (2002)      "The film aims to be funny, uplifting and moving, sometimes all at once. The extent to which it succeeds is impressive."       Eric Harrison  
  
2/4
     Accepted (2006)      "Too much of the plot is eaten up with clichéd assaults on a stodgy mainstream college and its pretty, gel-afflicted frat boys, who care waaayyy less about the liberal arts than whacking around pledges with a wooden spanker."       Amy Biancolli  
   --      The Acid House (1998)      Click here to see the review.         
  
3.5/4
     Across the Universe (2007)      "...Julie Taymor's rhapsodic mash note to John, Paul, George and Ringo falls just short of breathtaking."       Amy Biancolli  
   --      Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights (2002)      Click here to see the review.         
  
C
     Adaptation (2002)      "Mired in the inertia of Charlie's writer's block, as if the real Kaufman never found his own passion for the material."       Bruce Westbrook  
   --      Addicted to Love (1997)      Click here to see the review.         
   --      Adrenaline Drive (1999)      Click here to see the review.         
        The Adventures of Felix (2001)      "Bouajila, as Felix, has a freshness that seems natural, even though he is an experienced actor."       Louis B. Parks  
   --      The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle (2000)      Click here to see the review.         
   --      The Adventures of Sebastian Cole (1999)      Click here to see the review.         
  
1/4
     Adventures of Sharkboy and Lava Girl in 3-D (2005)      "Squinting through cardboard glasses you get at the door, you see washed-out colors, blurred images and not enough pop-out to merit the trade-off."       Bruce Westbrook  
   --      An Affair of Love (2000)      Click here to see the review.         
  
C
     The Affair of the Necklace (2001)      "The film has a desperate, disjointed feel that suggests the filmmakers realized it wasn't working and kept trying, ineffectually, to fix it."       Eric Harrison  
   --      Affliction (1997)      Click here to see the review.         
  
3/4
     After Innocence (2005)      "After Innocence is a crusading documentary driven by DNA testing that's brought freedom for men who served years in prison for crimes they didn't commit."       Bruce Westbrook  
   --      After Life (1998)      Click here to see the review.         
   --      After the Life (2002)      Click here to see the review.         
  
2/4
     After the Sunset (2004)      "After the Sunset is about as flat-footed a heist caper as I've ever seen: clumsy where it should be graceful, lumpy where it should be sleek."       Amy Biancolli  
  
2/4
     After The Wedding (2007)      "In my book it's high camp -- a thrill ride for emotion junkies."       Bruce Westbrook  
   --      Afterglow (1997)      Click here to see the review.         
  
D+
     Against the Ropes (2003)      "It's hard to buy this minor melding of Rocky and Erin Brockovich as anything but a punched-up star vehicle for an actress in a slump."       Bruce Westbrook  
  
C+
     Agent Cody Banks (2003)      "A mundane, kid-empowerment fantasy distinguished only by Frankie Muniz's agreeable blend of haplessness and heroics."       Bruce Westbrook  
   --      Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London (2004)      Click here to see the review.         
   --      The Agronomist (2004)      Click here to see the review.         
   --      Air Bud (1997)      Click here to see the review.         
        Air Force One (1997)      "Air Force One gets the job done."       Jeff Millar  
   --      AKA (2002)      Click here to see the review.         
  
B
     The Alamo (2004)      "[Hancock's] Alamo may be flawed, but it tells a tale that still has the power to stir our souls."       Bruce Westbrook  
   --      Alaska (1996)      Click here to see the review.         
  
B+
     Alex and Emma (2003)      "Imitating that life, Alex & Emma is more artifice than art. But chemistry is the key to a romantic comedy, and this one has enough to unlock guarded hearts."       Bruce Westbrook  
  
2/4
     Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker (2006)      "Even fantasies need a nod or a wink to assure viewers, 'Yes, it's ludicrous -- but isn't it fun?'"       Bruce Westbrook  
  
2/4
     Alexander (2004)      "Stone's failures with this film are largely honorable, but occasionally he miscalculates and strikes so badly off-key that he seems tone deaf."       Eric Harrison  
  
2/4
     Alfie (2004)      "Alfie is a bore."       Eric Harrison  
        Ali (2001)      "It's stirring to be reminded of what a glorious and galvanizing figure Ali was."       Eric Harrison  
   --      Alias Betty (2002)      Click here to see the review.         
  
B-
     Alice et Martin (1998)      "Techine keeps a tight rein on his actors' dramatics."       Louis B. Parks  
  
A
     Alien (1979)      "A genuine fright classic."       Bruce Westbrook  
        Alien Resurrection (1997)      "The film is a marvel, a well-photographed feast of visual imagery."       Louis B. Parks  
  
3/4
     Alien vs. Predator (2004)      "Though sometimes marred by murky lighting and quick-cut incoherence, the action is sudden and sensational."       Bruce Westbrook  
  
A
     Alien: The Director's Cut (2003)      "A monster movie with class."       Bruce Westbrook  
   --      Alive and Kicking (1996)      Click here to see the review.         
   --      All About My Mother (1999)      "Almodovar has called his near-unique creations 'screwball drama.' This finds him working at his best."       Jeff Millar  
  
D+
     All About the Benjamins (2002)      "Filled with low-brow humor, gratuitous violence and a disturbing disregard for life."       Eric Harrison
