sort by RATING	sort by TITLE/YEAR	sort by QUOTE	sort by AUTHOR


3/4	A Scanner Darkly (2006)	"The risks Scanner Darkly takes both with its subject matter and its method make it difficult to dismiss."	Gene Seymour



3/4	A Tout de Suite (2005)	"Tight little drama."	Jan Stuart



	A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001)	"It's astounding because, like so much of Kubrick's work, it resurrects the sense of cinema as an ongoing emergency."	John Anderson



.5/4	Abandon (2002)	"One sloughs one's way through the mire of this alleged psychological thriller in search of purpose or even a plot."	Gene Seymour



	ABCD (2001)	"The bad news is that [Jaffrey] leaves us a little hungry for people whose destinies matter to us more than the ones served up here."	Jan Stuart



3/4	Abduction: The Megumi Yokota Story (2007)	"The temptation to juice up the squalid elements of this story would be hard to resist for most filmmakers. Yet, for the most part, [the directors] manage to balance the story's jolting, world-shaking elements with the more intimate details."	Gene Seymour



	Aberdeen (2001)	"Moland has again directed Skarsgard into a new frontier of dramatic acting, and what is probably the most nakedly convincing performance of his career."	John Anderson



3/4	About a Boy (2002)	"A shrewd (if uneven) hybrid of American savvy and British savoir-faire."	Jan Stuart



	About Adam (2001)	"Smart, sexy and uncompromised."	John Anderson



3.5/4	About Schmidt (2002)	"Even while playing in a minor key with low-to-moderate tone colors, Jack Nicholson can knock your socks off."	Gene Seymour



3.5/4	Absolute Wilson (2006)	"A brisk and invigorating portrait."	Jan Stuart



0.5/4	Accepted (2006)	"More disconcerting is the idea put forward that self-indulgence is a substitute for structured education, or, more to the point, that it's a substitute for life."	Stephen Williams



2.5/4	Across the Universe (2007)	"There's so much to like, even love, about Across the Universe that you're even more exasperated about its faults."	Gene Seymour



0/4	Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights (2002)	"Animated drivel meant to enhance the self-image of drooling idiots."	John Anderson



3/4	Adam's Apples (2007)	"For all its roughhouse antics, Adam's Apples is almost improbably sweet: a rude comedy that the devout and heathen alike can hold to their breasts."	Jan Stuart



2.5/4	Adaptation (2002)	"A movie far more cynical and lazy than anything a fictitious Charlie Kaufman might object to."	John Anderson



0/4	Adored - Diary of a Porn Star (2004)	"There is little for an American audience to adore about the film's star- writer-director Marco Filiberti, a breathtakingly self-idolatrous artist who makes Roberto Benigni look like an avatar of humility."	Jan Stuart



	The Adventures of Felix (2001)	"A nuanced road picture that juggles issues of family, racism and identity as smartly as any film since My Beautiful Laundrette."	Jan Stuart



1.5/4	The Adventures of Pluto Nash (2002)	"A listless sci-fi comedy in which Eddie Murphy deploys two guises and elaborate futuristic sets to no particularly memorable effect."	Jan Stuart



	The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle (2000)	"By the last half hour, you may feel zombied out yourself."	Jan Stuart



2/4	Adventures of Sharkboy and Lava Girl in 3-D (2005)	"Rodriguez, whose prankish production design was the real star of the original Spy Kids, has become a prisoner of his 3-D mandate."	Jan Stuart



1/4	Aeon Flux (2005)	"A failure even on the action-adventure/vicarious-butt-kicking level."	John Anderson



2/4	After Midnight (2004)	"On its surface, this slight, light, Italian comedy about cinephilia emits the kind of whimsical vapors that give whimsy a bad name."	Gene Seymour



2/4	After the Sunset (2004)	"After the Sunset's carat-and-shtick approach is much more decadent than it is delightful."	John Anderson



2.5/4	After The Wedding (2007)	"Crisply written and acted soap opera from Susanne Bier, but vague in its intentions."	Jan Stuart



2/4	Against the Ropes (2003)	"More business as usual, despite the feminist aspects of Kallen's story."	John Anderson



3/4	Agent Cody Banks (2003)	"This elaborate and good-natured entertainment is never as funny as it should be, but it's also never wanting for energy."	Jan Stuart



1/4	Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London (2004)	"A nonsuspenseful and painfully unfunny series of comic stunts that try to have sport with the image of the garrulous American abroad."	Jan Stuart



2.5/4	Agnes and His Brothers (2006)	"There's fierce energy and -- thanks to the performances -- affecting emotion in the movie that almost makes you forget that Rainer Werner Fassbinder told a similar story much better 28 years ago with In a Year with 13 Moons."	Gene Seymour



1.5/4	Agnes Martin: With My Back to the World (2007)	"A sluggish documentary about reclusive painter Martin, who died in 2004 at age 92."	Ariella Budick



3/4	The Agronomist (2004)	"A film guaranteed to promote righteous indignation, sadness and guilt -- as it makes the case that the intertwined history of the United States and Haiti is one of almost unutterable shame."	John Anderson



2/4	Aileen: The Life and Death of a Serial Killer (2003)	"Might have been a good film, except that Broomfield had the inside track. His films are, ultimately, always about the making of his films."	John Anderson



3/4	Air Guitar Nation (2007)	"A favorite on the film festival circuit, Alexandra Lipsitz's exuberantly funny documentary follows the triumphant path of an American air guitarist as he rises from U.S. East Coast champ to the top rankings of the international air guitar festival."	Jan Stuart



1.5/4	The Air I Breathe (2007)	"With any luck, The Air I Breathe should be the last gasp of the faux-Altmanesque school of serendipitous storytelling."	Gene Seymour



3.5/4	AKA (2002)	"AKA has the ruthlessness and compassion of someone who has been there, done that and emerged with a heightened understanding of our shared sense of fraudulence."	Jan Stuart



1.5/4	Akeelah and the Bee (2006)	"Where Spellbound generated crackling suspense in its competition climax, Akeelah is virtually suspense-free, even with an attempt to wring a twist on its pre-determined outcome."	Jan Stuart



2.5/4	Al Franken: God Spoke (2006)	"Proves to be an illuminating (if perhaps unintended) demonstration of how hard it is to keep one's sense of humor when mixing it up in the political mainstream."	Gene Seymour



2.5/4	The Alamo (2004)	"While the battle scenes Hancock conducts are symphonic in their concussive confusion and chaos, it's in the characterization that the film achieves some gravitas."	John Anderson



1/4	Alex and Emma (2003)	"Alex & Emma is an amalgam of cliches about writers and burlesque stereotypes of foreigners."	Jan Stuart



2.5/4	Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker (2006)	"Who knew that the world was clamoring for another spy kid movie at this very moment? If we have to have one, it should be as cheeky and nonsensical as Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker."	Jan Stuart



2/4	Alexander (2004)	"Oliver Stone's biopic of Alexander the Great is spectacular, earnest and a bit of a yawn."	Jan Stuart



2/4	Alfie (2004)	" Early on, this urbane update tells us what we've learned in the intervening decades -- women are from Venus, Alfies are from Mars -- then proceeds to restate that view of the solar system ad nauseum."	Jan Stuart



	Ali (2001)	"The most impressive and persuasive rendering of a late-20th-century icon since Anthony Hopkins turned on that old Nixon charm in Oliver Stone's 1995 biopic."	Gene Seymour



3/4	Alias Betty (2002)	"Works as a decent urban thriller."	John Anderson



3/4	Alice's House (2008)	"Ribas delivers a natural, earthy performance that has helped this film win numerous awards on the festival circuit."	Rafer Guzman



3/4	Aliens of the Deep (2005)	"We go 'ooh' and 'aaah' with these guys and gals."	Gene Seymour



3.5/4	All About Lily Chou-Chou (2002)	"Poignant Japanese epic about adolescent anomie and heartbreak."	Gene Seymour



3.5/4	All or Nothing (2002)	"Mike Leigh goes spelunking in search of the English soul, finds gold."	John Anderson



3/4	All The King's Men (2006)	"In its best moments, All the King's Men exhorts us to sit back and reflect on the dark choices we are all capable of making in the name of power."	Jan Stuart



	All the Pretty Horses (2000)	"The film's swift, page-turning gait carries us with it."	Jan Stuart
