[movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Rabbit-Proof Fence (2002)      "[Noyce] focuses on the literal heart of the issue and brings it to sad, authentic life in a way that transcends race, gender, and nationality." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Race to Witch Mountain (2009)      "[C]hock full of too many rote car chases and bad guys who spout clichés... Don't bother with the film at all if you're not a fan of [Dwayne] Johnson, or of the woefully underappreciated Carla Gugino..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Radio (2003)      "[GoodingÕs] bumbling performance... makes one wonder if we canÕt retract [his] Oscar..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       9/10      Rain Man (1988)      "A sharp drama."

[movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Raise Your Voice (2004)      "Oh, the comparisons just come so easily: Like Coyote Ugly, only sillier. Like Crossroads, only sickening-sweeter." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Rambo (2008)      "Spare is good: so spare that essentials are missing is not." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       3/10      Random Hearts (1999)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       6/10      Ransom (1996)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Rappaccini's Daughter (1980)      "[P]lays like an 18th-century episode of The Twilight Zone, exuding an enigmatic romanticism..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Ratatouille (2007)      "Oh, but there is joy in this movie... It fills you up... with just the simple yet profound connection it's possible to make with another creature, even it that creature is merely a cartoon rat." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Ratcatcher (2000)      "This is often a stunningly, grimly beautiful film, but one that leaves a bitter aftertaste." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       9/10      Ravenous (1999)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Ray (2004)      "[Foxx is] astonishing... using his whole body... to express himself eloquently..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Reader (2008)      "Kate Winslet is extraordinary as a woman who is both brusquely adult and childishly vulnerable at the same time..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Reading Room (2005)      "[S]implistic to the point of banality..." [dvd review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Reaping (2007)      "Forget a plague of boils -- how about a plague of boredom followed by a plague of oh-my-god-is-it-really-this-bad-for-women-in-Hollywood?" [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       9/10      Rebecca (1940)      "A masterpiece of style and substance, an extended meditation on how the dead haunt the living." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Reception (2005)      "[P]uts the greatest emphasis and care into the one aspect that no budget in the megamillions could have fixed: the script...." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Reckoning (2004)      "[A] terrific little film, a very contemporary-feeling detective story set amongst the squalor and the misery of the middle ages..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       --      Recount (2008)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Recruit (2003)      "Unlikely to be the only example of slam-bang popcorn fluff with so despairing a demeanor we’re likely to see in the near future. It’s pre-cynicized for your protection." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       --      Red Corner (1997)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Red Eye (2005)      "[T]horoughly enthralling and completely rip-rousing..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       3/10      Red Planet (2000)      "A soulless and charmless film that desperately hopes we won't see the stitches that barely hold its disparate pieces together." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Red Road (2007)      "This prickly sketch of a vengeance born out of loneliness and alienation carries the weight of horror of the everyday..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Redbelt (2008)      "The longer you trust... Mamet... the more you'll be crushed when the film, which is always teetering on the edge of preposterousness, finally tumbles over that edge." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Reign of Fire (2002)      "Full of tantalizing hints of the fascinating mythopoeic movie this could have been." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Reign Over Me (2007)      "Sandler is one monotone note here: dead-eyed hollowness standing in for grief..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       3/10      Reindeer Games (2000)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Renaissance (2006)      "Visions of Blade Runner and 50s noir were clearly dancing in the head of the talented... Volckman..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Rendition (2007)      "[The torture] scenes are pretty graphic... but every American should be forced to watch this movie... in order to see what is being done in our name, and in the name of, supposedly, freedom and justice." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       9/10      Repo Man (1984)      "Deadpan humor, throwaway visual jokes, and oblique political and social satire may have doomed this way-cool flick to the neverland of sci-fi cultdom." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       --      Requiem for a Dream (2000)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Reservation Road (2007)      "[P]owerful and pitiful performances... make it a must-see for fans of stars Joaquin Phoenix and Mark Ruffalo..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Resident Evil (2002)      "*Yawn.* Here's another ridley- scott- alien movie." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Resident Evil: Extinction (2007)      "When postapocalypse movies like this one seem to be striving to advance the idea that the human race is too stupid to survive, why not just let us die already?" [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Resurrecting the Champ (2007)      "It's not exactly the stuff that feel-good movies are made of -- it's the stuff that hey-chew-on-this movies are made of." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Return of the Jedi (1983)      "There's no return to innocence for Luke, but all is not darkness, either." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       9/10      Return to Paradise (1998)      "Discovering that his father's opinion of him is as low as his opinion of himself, Vaughn conveys his dismay and a new self-awareness with a furrow of his brow and a kind of panic in his eyes, an economy of physicality that nevertheless speaks volumes." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       --      Reunion (2002)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Revelations - The Complete Mini-Series (2005)      "Apocalyptic cheese... a finely calculated mercenary attempt to get all those consumers of The Da Vinci Code back in front of the boob tube, where they belong." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       3/10      Revolution (1985)      "Even the characters in the movie don't know what's going on." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Revolution No. 9 (2002)      "Appropriately cynical social commentary aside, #9 never quite ignites." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Rhinoceros Eyes (2004)      "Utterly wrongheaded and indistinctly creepy, in that yawn-inducing way of pretentious twaddle..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Rhythm Thief (1994)      "[A] take on punkish independence on New York's Lower East Side... reminiscent of Scorsese's early work..." [dvd review]      The Flick Filosopher       --      Rhythm Thief (1994)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Rick (2003)      "[M]alicious, ironic cruelty dealt with a deft and subtle hand..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Rick & Steve - Season 1 (2007)      "The attempts at humor are obvious, simplistic, and riddled with stereotypes... If it's supposed to be satire, it misses the mark, wildly." [dvd review]      The Flick Filosopher
