Tomato 4/5 |
A Scanner Darkly (2006) |
"The brilliance of A Scanner Darkly is how it suggests, without bombast or fanfare, the ways in which the real world has come to resemble the dark world of comic books." |
Carina Chocano |
Tomato 5/5 |
A Tout de Suite (2005) |
"It's hard to imagine many films surpassing or even equaling the effect of this supple, breathtakingly direct, small French film." |
Kevin Thomas |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001) |
"A not quite seamless, not completely satisfying but invariably attention-grabbing combination of divergent themes, genres and even story lines." |
Kenneth Turan |
Splat 2/5 |
Abandon (2002) |
"A trite psychological thriller designed to keep the audience guessing and guessing -- which is not to be confused with suspecting -- until it comes time to wrap things up and send the viewers home." |
Kevin Thomas |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
ABCD (2001) |
"It's polished without being slick; well-paced and graceful and brought alive by stellar performances led by Jaffrey." |
Kevin Thomas |
Tomato 4/5 |
Abduction: The Megumi Yokota Story (2007) |
"The story it tells is a shattering mystery of violation and loss, if only because by the end, certain answers only lead to more punishing questions." |
Robert Abele |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
Aberdeen (2001) |
"A raw, harrowing film with a streak of dark, sometimes rowdy humor." |
Kevin Thomas |
Splat 2/5 |
Abominable (2006) |
"There's no salvaging this." |
Mark Olsen |
Tomato 3.5/5 |

Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 4/5 |
About Adam (2001) |
"A sly romantic comedy made with wit and style." |
Kevin Thomas |
Tomato 4/5 |
About Schmidt (2002) |
"Perfectly pitched between comedy and tragedy, hope and despair, About Schmidt instead comes far closer than many movies to expressing the way many of us live -- someplace between consuming self-absorption and insistently demanding otherness." |
Manohla Dargis |
Tomato |
Absolute Power (1997) |
"Almost a drawing room thriller, unhurried and genteel but enlivened with suspense and surprising bursts of sly, even biting, humor." |
Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 5/5 |
Absolute Wilson (2006) |
"Impressive as is Wilson's output and oeuvre, it's the fully-engaged, aesthetically driven life that fascinates. And Otto-Bernstein's movie is a portrait of an artist at his most essential, in every sense." |
Carina Chocano |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Absurdistan (2008) |
"Has a folkloric charm buoyed by consistent comic inventiveness." |

Adam (2009) |
"Adam is a most welcome summer treat." |
Kevin Thomas |
Tomato 3/5 |
Adam & Steve (2006) |
"Much of Craig Chester's good-hearted love story Adam & Steve is silly and contrived, but the film boasts four engaging actors, including Chester." |
Kevin Thomas |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Adam Resurrected (2008) |
"In a less competitive year, Jeff Goldblum would have had a shot at an Oscar nod." |
Gary Goldstein |
Tomato 3/5 |
Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights (2002) |
"On the whole, this lively, bittersweet Columbia release works well and is sure to connect strongly with fans of Sandler at his most free-wheeling and uninhibited." |
Kevin Thomas |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Adam's Apples (2007) |
"The movie is all surface, loudly clamoring for attention and then losing its voice." |
Sam Adams |
Tomato 4.5/5 |

"When we look for illumination, all we find is chaos and darkness." |
Betsy Sharkey |
Tomato 3/5 |
Adored - Diary of a Porn Star (2004) |
"[Marco Filiberti] has lots on his mind and much in his heart, and as a filmmaker displays a Douglas Sirkian flair for finding substance in melodrama." |

Tomato 4/5 |
Adventureland (2009) |
"With a cast that believed in one another and a writer-director who believed he didn't have to follow up Superbad with SuperEvenBadder, Adventureland is the kind of adventure we could all use more of." |
Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Adventures of Felix (2001) |
"An odyssey of self-discovery of much charm, humor and admirable subtlety." |
Kevin Thomas |

Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Affair of the Necklace (2001) |
"The Affair of the Necklace is no paperback romance or swashbuckler it at first appears to be, but rather the remarkable odyssey of a young woman who lived to tell her amazing story herself." |

After Sex (1997) |
"A hauntingly honest and provocative look at what an all-consuming love can in fact consume." |
Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
After the Life (2002) |
"Watching junkies screaming for their fix tends to get very tired very quickly, but Blanc holds the screen with furtive intensity." |
Manohla Dargis |
Tomato 4/5 |
After the Sunset (2004) |
"An unalloyed delight, bright and breezy escapist fare that's pure entertainment, filled with romance, adventure, humor, action, suspense, beautiful scenery and beautiful people." |
Kevin Thomas |
Tomato 4/5 |
After The Wedding (2007) |
"It's that paradoxical melodrama that point-blank refuses to acknowledge that it's being melodramatic, conveying its scenario with enough intensity, psychological acuity and forceful acting to ignore labels and flat-out overpower audiences." |
Kenneth Turan |
Splat 2/5 |
Against the Ropes (2003) |
"A workmanlike production that's simply too predictable and too preposterous to hold our interest." |
Kenneth Turan |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Age of Stupid (2009) |
"Though this narrative device can feel a bit gimmicky and grandiose, it also provides a visual and emotional power that drives home this absorbing film's crucial cautionary message." |
Gary Goldstein |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Agent Cody Banks (2003) |
