A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001) |

Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
About Adam (2001) |
|
"You Should Pay Nine Bucks for This If: Turning off your brain for an empty-headed sex comedy that really skimps on the comedy is how you want to throw away your dough." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
The Adventures of Felix (2001) |
|
"Date Movie? Not as satisfying as Big Eden, but it'll do as a good second choice." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
The Affair of the Necklace (2001) |
|
"It's all about as elegant as jewelry from a home-shopping channel." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
Ali (2001) |
|
"It's just a good movie and not the greatest." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
All Over the Guy (2001) |
|
"It makes more sense than the usual slop that gay audiences get stuck watching." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
All the Pretty Horses (2000) |
|
"A gorgeous elegy for the Cowboy Way." | |
Dave White | |

|
|
Almost Famous (2000) |
|
"It's big-hearted, bittersweet, and they all shine on." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
Along Came a Spider (2001) |
|
"You Should Pay Nine Bucks for This If: You like rolling your eyes at this sort of hooey and saying 'as if!' to your viewing companions. You'll be doing that a lot." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
Amelie (2001) |
|
"You Should Pay Nine Bucks for This: If you’ve been feeling sluggish and grumpy lately. I recommend daily viewings. If it doesn’t make you wildly happy, then I want to hear from you." | |

|
America's Sweethearts (2001) |
|
"[Crystal] nearly sinks the medium-sized comedy boat they're all trying to occupy. Still, it's funny enough and forgettable enough that you probably won't mind, especially when Julia shows off her teeth." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
American Outlaws (2001) |
|
"Its true focus is Farrell's perfectly tousled hair, hair never disturbed by a cowboy hat while no other man onscreen removes his." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
American Pie 2 (2001) |

|
An American Rhapsody (2001) |

Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
Amores Perros (2001) |
|
"A truly stunning film, both horrible and beautiful." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
Angel Eyes (2001) |
|
"Another quality product from the folks at Franchise Pictures, a production team as rigorous in its aesthetic output as the Dogme 95 dudes." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
Angela's Ashes (1999) |
|
"The script by Parker and Laura Jones also borrows massive chunks of McCourt's narration, in voice-over style, but the result is constantly to tell us rather than show us, or worse, tell us what we've already been shown." | |
Robert Koehler | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
The Animal (2001) |
|
"It's funny if you have nothing else to laugh at and no expectations at all." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
Anna and the King (1999) |
|
"In his big bid for Hollywood stardom, Chow lacks what gave him star power to begin with: an intensely masculine soul of fire and ice." | |
Robert Koehler | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
The Annihilation of Fish (2001) |
|
"What's Right: Nice performances from Redgrave and Jones." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
The Anniversary Party (2001) |
|
"Good first-date movie. See who they think is the craziest, worst-behaved character here. It'll help you decide if you want that second date." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
Antitrust (2001) |
|
"This movie can take its rightful place in the pantheon of funny, bad movies." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
Any Given Sunday (1999) |
|
"On a purely cinematic level, the film is indeed triumphant, with wildly inventive player-perspective footage that brilliantly conveys the rush of game-time action, and an expert's grasp of multilayered storytelling." | |
Hazel-Dawn Dumpert | |

 |
| |
|
|
Apocalypse Now Redux (2001) |
|
"The movie didn't 'need' to be lengthened, but it's great to see the cut footage." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
The Art of War (2000) |
|
"A formulaic spy thriller with an intricate puzzle-box story and action that speeds along nicely once it gets going." | |
Robert Koehler | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001) |
|
"It's all sort of lifeless -- no suspense, no compelling characters." | |
Dave White | |
 |
 |
 |
| |
|
|
Audition (2001) |
