A Nous La Liberte (1931) |
"Compared to his contemporaries Jean Renoir and Jean Vigo, Clair was a minor talent, though both of these films do contain innovative uses of sound mixed with silent film." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
3.5/4 |
A Scanner Darkly (2006) |
"Richard Linklater's A Scanner Darkly does proud the tradition of cultish movies adapted from Philip K. Dick stories." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
 2.5/4 |
A Tout de Suite (2005) |
"Despite the film's infectious style and the powerful charisma of its leading performers, it doesn't really catch fire." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
3/4 |
A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001) |
"[The] middle section [of A.I.] contains perhaps Spielberg's finest work, ever." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
|
Ab-Normal Beauty (2004) |
"Until the mystery is uncovered, Pang keeps the razor tension at a satisfying peak." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
2.5/4 |
Abandon (2002) |
"The film's selling point is the mystery story, which Gaghan blunders completely." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
2/4 |
The Abandoned (2007) |
"Cerdà quickly lets slip his woeful lack of skill with a curious, "arty" predilection for switching camera focus in the middle of a shot." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
|
Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948) |
"It's ridiculous, of course, but the combination of classic monsters, dizzy sets and some of Bud and Lou's funniest bits make it a keeper." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
|
ABC Africa (2002) |
"Unexpectedly humane and lovely and not at all preachy." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
|
Aberdeen (2001) |
"For all its attempts at bending the rules, Aberdeen still comes off as frustratingly conventional." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
|
About a Boy (2002) |

Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
3.5/4 |
About Schmidt (2002) |
"About Schmidt can be rough going; the laughter always hurts just a little bit." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
2/4 |
Accepted (2006) |
"A flat comedy based on a flimsy premise and filled out with the usual "snowballing lie" plot, climaxing in the "rousing speech."" |

Across the Universe (2007) |
"When it comes to the in-between scenes, the direction falls back to a routine, rudimentary style. (It makes a far better trailer than a movie.)" |

Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights (2002) |
"Not even Steven Spielberg has dreamed up such blatant and sickening product placement in a movie." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
4/4 |
Adaptation (2002) |
"Nervy and sensitive, it taps into genuine artistic befuddlement, and at the same time presents a scathing indictment of what drives Hollywood." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |

The Adventures of Felix (2001) |

Adventures of Sharkboy and Lava Girl in 3-D (2005) |
"Rodriguez is a long way off from the energy of the original Spy Kids, and the difference lies between the definitions of "childlike" and "childish."" |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
1.5/4 |
Aeon Flux (2005) |
"Portray(s) the future in a monotone drone, forcing the poor actors to murmur their flat, lifeless dialogue." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |

|
|

"Far too sodden to light my fire." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
|
An Affair to Remember (1957) |

Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
3.5/4 |
Affliction (1997) |
"A terrifying movie that faces the truth of cruelty and its everlasting results." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
|
Afro Promo (2006) |
"It's undoubtedly a lot of fun, but eventually, with no commentary whatsoever, Hollywood's attitudes toward blacks and the evolution of black stereotypes become crystal clear." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
4/4 |
After Hours (1985) |
"I love it for its unrelenting inventiveness, its constant motion and its curmudgeonly glass-half-empty outlook." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
3/4 |
After Innocence (2005) |
"Come Oscar night, After Innocence will almost certainly trump them all. It's not necessarily better than any of the others, but its call for social awareness rings out bolder and rises higher." |

After the Sunset (2004) |
"Finally, he has made a film that rises above mediocrity, though we can probably credit its mild, inoffensive pleasures more to chance than to Ratner's skill." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
2.5/4 |
After The Wedding (2007) |
"[The] handheld, digital camerawork provides an ultra-realistic, immediate feel, but also highlights the film's cautious, dramatic sidestepping." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |
|
|
2.5/4 |
Against the Ropes (2003) |
"Dutton is one of my favorite actors, but as a director he reveals an unwelcome penchant for soapy hysterics." |
Jeffrey M. Anderson |

The Age of Innocence (1993) |
