Sort by RATING      Sort by TITLE/YEAR      Sort by QUOTE      Sort by SOURCE       B-      Cabin Fever (2003)      "Plenty of fun, but I found myself wishing it was more horror and less comedy." [movie review]      Film Blather       A-      Caché (2005)      "I was expecting a spooky mystery about a family terrorized by a diabolical stalker. I got something even better." [movie review]      Film Blather       C+      Calendar Girls (2003)      "Even as the rest of the movie begins to go south, you can still count on Helen Mirren hitting us with those perfectly sardonic line deliveries." [movie review]      Film Blather       B+      Capote (2005)      "Miller rallies in a big way in the last half hour, giving us a conclusion that's strong, intricate, perfectly logical, and heartbreaking." [movie review]      Film Blather       B      Capturing the Friedmans (2003)      "A pretty unremarkable film about a remarkable situation." [movie review]      Film Blather       B      Cars (2006)      "Has all the charm of the Pixar canon, though little of the emotional resonance and clear thinking of their best films." [movie review]      Film Blather       B      Cassandra's Dream (2008)      "If Cassandra's Dream doesn't have the heft of Match Point, mostly due to an ending that tries too hard, I'd argue that it's a much more human film." [movie review]      Film Blather       B-      Cast Away (2000)      "This isn't a first time a long-awaited movie has turned out to be a crushing disappointment and it won't be the last, but the loss is made even more wrenching when one considers how little it would have taken to make Cast Away a great movie." [movie review]      Film Blather       C+      Catch a Fire (2006)      "There's a lot to process here -- to its credit, the film is ambiguous in its treatment of violent terrorism to fight apartheid -- but nothing hits on an emotional level." [movie review]      Film Blather       A-      Catch Me If You Can (2002)      "Frank Abagnale is soooooo cool." [movie review]      Film Blather       C+      Catch That Kid (2004)      "Simply the kind of movie that people see, shrug, and move on from. Even the kids." [movie review]      Film Blather       B-      Cats & Dogs (2001)      "The 90 minutes go by fast, and this is adequate family entertainment" [movie review]      Film Blather       D-      Catwoman (2004)      "There isn't an original bone in its body, but that isn't even the problem: no one in the production had any idea how to rip off better films with any degree of competence." [movie review]      Film Blather       --      The Caveman's Valentine (2001)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      Film Blather       A      The Cell (2000)      "Writer Mark Protosevich and director Tarsem Singh, both making their feature debut, have crafted the year's first masterpiece, an insanely ambitious movie that miraculously fulfills every one of its ambitions." [movie review]      Film Blather       B      Cellular (2004)      "Mileage may vary, but if the idea of William H. Macy beating up someone roughly twice his size sounds like a hoot, then this may be just the movie you were looking for." [movie review]      Film Blather       B      Changeling (2008)      "It's long and messy, covering all the bases and then some, but it's also fantastically entertaining. Its 140 minutes feel more like 90." [movie review]      Film Blather       B+      Changing Lanes (2002)      "Too smart to pander to the instincts that would demand a hanging-by-the-fingernails climax." [movie review]      Film Blather       B      Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005)      "Burton gets off to a great start but then lets his movie deflate, disappointingly, until little is left except a gaudy, admittedly imaginative circus." [movie review]      Film Blather       B+      Charlie Bartlett (2007)      "Charlie Bartlett is rated R but is perfect, even salutary for young teens and older tweens. It's sincere, unabashedly positive, smart and funny -- a supernaturally rare combination." [movie review]      Film Blather       D+      Charlie's Angels (2000)      "A virtual big-budget explosion? Yes. A spectacle of three great actresses making fools of themselves? Sure. MTV-worthy martial arts monages that shamelessly rip off The Matrix? Yessireebob. But a movie? No. Not for an instant." [movie review]      Film Blather       B-      Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle (2003)      "But if we must be subjected to installment after installment of the ludicrously high-kicking hottie agents, can they all be like "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle," and as unlike the first 2000 revival as possible? Please?" [movie review]      Film Blather       C+      Charlotte's Web (2006)      "It doesn't turn E.B. White into a travesty, but it manages to make him border on inane." [movie review]      Film Blather       D+      Chasing Liberty (2004)      "Standard-issue romantic comedy fluff, its soundtrack overstuffed with alt-rock ditties, its plot crawling toward the inevitable "it was all a bet/a trick/a lie" confrontation." [movie review]      Film Blather       B-      Cheaper by the Dozen (2003)      "I am hard-pressed to come up with a reason why anyone should make a special trip to see this frivolous, formulaic comedy, but I also cannot in good conscience condemn it." [movie review]      Film Blather       C      Chicago (2002)      "I wondered at times if these people had even seen the show, or if they were just working from the script and sheet music." [movie review]      Film Blather       A-      Chicken Run (2000)      "A sharp, witty movie that finally answers the age-old question: what do chickens do when you're not looking?" [movie review]      Film Blather       A      Children of Men (2006)      "Cuaron is proving to be the real thing. It's tremendously exciting to watch." [movie review]      Film Blather       C+      Chocolat (2000)      "A well-made but hokey, shameless movie inexplicably awarded a Best Picture nomination." [movie review]      Film Blather       B      The Chorus (2005)      "In the complete absence of distinguishing story features, it is pure craftsmanship." [movie review]      Film Blather       C      Christmas with the Kranks (2004)      "Does an outrageous about-face, neatly dismantling anything of potential worth and coming out with a monumentally phony Christmas moral." [movie review]      Film Blather       A-      Chronicles of Riddick (2004)      "A virtuoso exercise in world creation, a plot-heavy epic that's like a breath of fresh air in a time when movie stars and high concepts pass for science-fiction." [movie review]      Film Blather       9/10      The Cider House Rules (1999)      "Meandering and unfocused." [movie review]      Film Blather       C      Cinderella Man (2005)      "There is nothing to discover and nothing to feel." [movie review]      Film Blather       B-      Cinemania (2003)      "What keeps it from being great, I think, is that these folks' cinemania comes through, but their cinephilia does not." [movie review]      Film Blather       C      City by the Sea (2002)      "There is a better way to approach this material." [movie review]      Film Blather       C      City of Ghosts (2003)      "It's slow, but on the other hand, it's not interesting." [movie review]      Film Blather       B+      City of God (2003)      "A textbook example of how to tackle a tough subject and not make a pretentious movie." [movie review]      Film Blather       B+      A Civil Action (1998)      "The film is so daring because it features a protagonist that we cannot and do not sympathize with." [movie review]      Film Blather       A      The Clearing (2004)      "A splendid kidnapping thriller, but its craftsmanship might obscure a subtle, affecting meditation on loss and redemption." [movie review]      Film Blather       B+      Clerks II (2006)      "Clerks II has at last put Kevin Smith on my radar." [movie review]      Film Blather       D      Click (2006)      "The only thing about this movie I didn't hate was Hasselhoff. " [movie review]      Film Blather       B-      Cloverfield (2008)      "It's a hell of a visceral experience -- but it's a purely visceral experience, apparently to the point of causing some viewers to vomit. Unless you're one of those unfortunate few, you'll soon forget the details." [movie review]      Film Blather       B      Coach Carter (2005)      "Predictable, schmaltzy, and old as the hills, but so well-made that it is a sort of triumph." [movie review]      Film Blather       -- D+      Cock & Bull Story (2003)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      Film Blather       D+      Coco Before Chanel (2009)      "Coco Before Chanel's approach is classic arthouse: handsome, measured, respectful, and soul-crushingly bland" [movie review]      Cinematical       B+      Code 46 (2004)      "Features a vast, haunting vision of a not-so-distant future -- one so intricate that the character story it is meant to buttress plays second fiddle to its fascinating detail." [movie review]      Film Blather       C+      Coffee and Cigarettes (2004)      "He obsessively contrives his characters and situations to work toward something -- a point, a message, a statement." [movie review]      Film Blather       B-      Cold Creek Manor (2003)      "Indescribably gorgeous... You don't have to watch it, but you gotta see it." [movie review]      Film Blather       B      Cold Mountain (2003)      "It may be Oscar bait, but if so, it's the weirdest Oscar bait in many moons. " [movie review]      Film Blather
