Sort by RATING      Sort by TITLE/YEAR      Sort by QUOTE      Sort by SOURCE       B-      W. (2008)      "Works well enough as drama (and occasionally as comedy), but it's a missed opportunity to really explore some great American themes." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       C+      The Wackness (2008)      "A so-so comedy with some genuinely funny scenes, punctuated with too many trying-too-hard elements." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B-      Wah-Wah (2006)      "Rare is the honest labor of love that doesn't have some redeeming value, and Wah-Wah ultimately wins you over with its sincerity." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       C-      Waist Deep (2006)      "A witless urban drama that's too serious for its own good and that never met a cliché it didn't like." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B-      Waiting... (2005)      "Its particular brand of puerile humor is often well-played enough to earn laughs -- though it could still use some improvement." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       A      Waitress (2007)      "The ending is both realistic and happy -- and I do mean happy, as in, make-you-cry, exit-the-theater-skipping-and-dancing, that kind of happy." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B+      Waking Life (2001)      "An unusual and intriguing film full of philosophy and social theories." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B-      Waking the Dead (2000)      "It's a good movie, hampered by an intriguing storyline that winds up being misused." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B      Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (2007)      "Merrily deconstructs the conventions of the genre with subtlety and (where required) blatant outright mockery." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B      Walk the Line (2005)      "I don't know if non-Cash fans will be converted, but people already in his camp will find that it walks the line quite nicely." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       C-      A Walk to Remember (2002)      "This one is certainly well-meaning, but it's also simple-minded and contrived." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       D+      Walking Tall (2004)      "This is a classic example of a film assuming we will be on the side of its protagonist just BECAUSE he's the protagonist. In fact, he behaves like a big, dumb animal." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       A      WALL-E (2008)      "Here I am, surprised and delighted all over again at just how well these people can tell a story." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       A      Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005)      "Heavens, the whole thing is just a cracking good time, so funny and clever and madly entertaining." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B      Wanted (2008)      "The stylized violence and unapologetically ludicrous action sequences are the selling point, and Wanted delivers those by the blood-soaked truckload." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       D+      War (2007)      "The fatal flaw of War ... is that I don't give two craps about anyone in it." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B+      War of the Worlds (2005)      "Spielberg's technical skills are second to none, and his childlike love for a good story remains intact in this marvelously entertaining, 90-percent-satisfying blockbuster." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B      The War Within (2005)      "Taut and suspenseful even when it's just being introspective." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B-      Warriors of Heaven and Earth (2004)      "Takes all the elements of the classic Westerns, mixes them with Eastern spiritualism, and comes out with a film that is at least noteworthy, if not especially brilliant." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       2/5      Wassup Rockers (2006)      Click here to see the review! [dvd review]      DVDTalk.com       C+      Wassup Rockers (2006)      "This film is neither controversial nor interesting enough to warrant much attention either way." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       C+      The Watcher (2000)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B-      Watchmen (2009)      "It's a movie to see once, more or less enjoy, and then shrug off." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       3/5      Water (2006)      "The film's visuals hold almost as much power as its story does." [dvd review]      DVDTalk.com       B      Water (2006)      "The film's visuals hold almost as much power as its story does." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       C+      The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep (2007)      "It's a movie for kids, and I suppose they will like it well enough, its pedestrian story notwithstanding." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       2/5      Waterborne (2005)      Click here to see the review! [dvd review]      DVDTalk.com       B-      Waterborne (2005)      "Even without terrorists, it seems, we may be our own worst enemies. Waterborne makes that point with a compelling, highly watchable story." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B+      The Way Home (2002)      "Writer/director Jeong-hyang Lee, in only her second feature, establishes a situation rife with gentle humor and honest, unaffected love." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       A-      The Way of the Gun (2000)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B      We Are Marshall (2006)      "Directed with surprising restraint and compassion by McG, earning our tears rather than jerking them." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       C      We Don't Live Here Anymore (2004)      "Nothing more than a series of scenes set in darkened rooms in which grownups argue with and lie to each other. It is a Lifetime movie, only with a better cast." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       C      We Were Soldiers (2002)      "Offers no new insight on the matter, nor do its characters exactly spring to life." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       C      Weapons (2007)      "The filmmaker and his actors have skill. What they don't have is something to say." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B+      The Weather Man (2005)      "The film's ultimate point has to do with the title character's epiphany, and it's a funny, tortuous path that takes us there." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B-      Wedding Crashers (2005)      "Too long by 30 minutes, but the two leads are a good pair, Vaughn's rapid-fire delivery nicely complementing Wilson's lazy-surfer drawl." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       D      The Wedding Date (2005)      "Directed with muddled confusion, the movie goes through its stock characters and obligatory plot points without enthusiasm or charm." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       C-      The Wedding Planner (2001)      "This is a romantic comedy in a broad farce's clothing, and it doesn't fit worth a darn." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       D-      Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins (2008)      "A rancid, unfunny disaster full of embarrassing performances and shamefully simple-minded comic notions." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B-      Welcome to Mooseport (2004)      "It's the kind of movie that smiles blandly at you because it can't think of anything smart to say, and so you smile back, content but not intrigued." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B+      Wendy and Lucy (2008)      "Like Reichardt, Williams does a lot with very little, culminating in a bittersweet, quietly moving finale." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B+      Wet Hot American Summer (2001)      "A surprisingly high percentage of jokes succeed brilliantly." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       A-      Whale Rider (2003)      "I'm sure I have never seen a film like this before. It is subtle, but makes its points clearly and simply. It is storytelling at its very best." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B-      What a Girl Wants (2003)      "I really did enjoy it, overall, and here's why: the considerable charm of Colin Firth." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       C+      What Alice Found (2003)      "It neither glamorizes nor demonizes truck-stop whoredom; it merely depicts it, with little of the internal strife that ought to accompany it." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       C+      What Doesn't Kill You (2008)      "The story is generic and uncompelling, coming across as just another gritty drama about a major city's criminal underbelly." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       C      What Happens in Vegas (2008)      "I didn't laugh much, and I never felt even an inkling of 'aw, cute!' romance -- but I didn't want to claw my eyes out, either. If that counts as a success, then I guess it's a hit." [movie review]      Film.com       C      What Is It? (2006)      "It's weirdness for weirdness' sake, and while I disagree fundamentally with a film that has no purpose other than to make you go 'huh ... that was odd,' I do concede that most of the weirdness in this case is at least interesting weirdness." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B-      What Lies Beneath (2000)      "The film's second half regresses into a standard woman-in-peril movie." [movie review]      EricDSnider.com       B      What Planet Are You From? (2000)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      EricDSnider.com
