Shark (2007)      "It becomes apparent early on that excessive teenage eccentricity and terminal self-delusion isn't quite as cute in the adult male and absent father." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer            Eagles Over London (1969)      "Made in the shadow of The Dirty Dozen and The Battle of Britain, this film straddles both genres..." [movie review]      Seanax.com            The Earrings of Madame De... (1953)      ".. not just directed, not just choreographed, but sculpted in time and space, with actors and decor as the raw materials and the camera carving out the story." [movie review]      Parallax View            East of Eden (1955)      "East of Eden is set in 1917 but [James] Dean feels completely modern and contemporary, a boy not quite comfortable in his body." [movie review]      Turner Classic Movies Online            Eastbound & Down      "... a cable series created with the same collaborative spirit and improvisational approach of Will Ferrell's movies, and it's funnier and sharper than Ferrell's last couple of pictures" [movie review]      Seanax.com       B+      Eastern Promises (2007)      "The restraint of both director and actor makes this steely gangster drama reverberate long after it ends." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       C-      Easy (2003)      "... tries to coast on this surface of quirks and cute details, but Weinstock's perfunctory direction stumbles over her attempts at humor and sabotages her performers." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer            Easy Living (1937)      "... Jean Arthur (is) a different kind of working class girl elevated into high society by the fickle finger of fate." [dvd review]      MSN.com            Easy Rider (1969)      "The little road movie of hippie bikers was an odyssey for the era of sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll..." [movie review]      Seanax.com            Eat Drink Man Woman (1994)      "The study of social manners and suppressed feelings became Lee's specialty." [movie review]      Turner Classic Movies Online       C-      Eating Out (2005)      "... a feature-length sitcom with gay double entendres." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer            Eclipse Series 17: Nikkatsu Noir (1960)      "... lively B-movie artifacts from the wild and weird era of Nikkatsu's glory days of crime movie programmers, when the mob movie rats ran wild through the genre." [movie review]      Seanax.com       A      The Edge of Heaven (2008)      "Akin doesn't hide the fatal destinies of major characters... but it's the lives of the survivors and how they choose to carry on that carry these crisscrossing stories." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       B      The Edukators (2005)      "It's a rare film that gets smarter as it goes along..."

[movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       B      Eight Legged Freaks (2002)      "... a B-movie-and-proud-of-it thrill ride, probably the best of its kind since Tremors." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer            El Cid (1961)      "(D)irector Anthony Mann uses his stunning locations and choreographs his armies and crowds magnificently... corralling it into the frame like an old master..."

[movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer            Elite Squad (2008)      "... for all the glorification of the mercenary methods of this elite squad, it's still a fascinating portrait of a nightmarish police and crime culture and a vivid narrative." [movie review]      GreenCine       C+      Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007)      "... the intrigue that made the original Elizabeth so gripping is simply an awkward complication here, emphasis on the awkward." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       B-      Ella Enchanted (2004)      "... there's an unabashed charm in Hathaway's sweet and spunky performance and a rejuvenating energy unleashed in a pair of bright musical numbers." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       B      Elling (2002)      "...hits every cliche we've come to expect, including the assumption that "crazy" people are innocent, childlike and inherently funny." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer            The Elusive Corporal (1962)      "The tone is light and the repeated escape attempts are played with a comic undertone, yet behind the humor is the feeling of dignity lost..." [movie review]      Turner Classic Movies Online            Elvis: That's the Way It Is (1970)      "The definitive portrait of Elvis the Vegas headliner follows the King through his 1970 summer engagement in Las Vegas from backstage bustle to box-office hustle to 27 stage numbers." [movie review]      MSN.com       C+      Enchanted (2007)      "Given the possibilities it's not particularly inventive, but it is nice to see a comedy so affectionate with the conventions it spoofs."

[movie review]      Parallax View       B+      Encounters At the End of the World (2007)      "... an engaging and generous profile of the fascinating folks who have chosen to live at the end of the world."

[movie review]      Nitrate Online       C      Equilibrium (2002)      "... a preachy parable stylized with a touch of John Woo bullet ballet." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       C+      Eros (2005)      "All texture and sublimated longing." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       A      Eureka (2001)      ""Eureka" churns with unsettled emotions under a serene surface and a dark murder mystery that hangs over its soul-scarred orphans." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       C      Eurotrip (2004)      "Too slim to call a story, this string of bawdy gags provides a few junk food laughs -- enjoyable but insubstantial..." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       C      Evan Almighty (2007)      "For a premise with unlimited possibilities, director Tom Shadyac and screenwriter Steve Oedekerk are awfully small-minded." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       B-      Evelyn (2002)      "...ultimately reduces a potentially rich battle against the forces of inertia to utterly familiar melodramatic tropes."

[movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       C+      Every Day God Kisses Us on the Mouth (2001)      "For all the beautiful bleakness and stark, dark, gloomy black-and-white photography, it's hard to accept a sad-eyed repeat murderer as the ultimate victim of his poisonous society." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       B-      Everybody's Famous (2001)      "A sweet and heartwarming story even as it celebrates and justifies the entire ridiculous phenomenon that Deruddere has been spoofing all along." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       B-      Everything's Gone Green (2007)      "It's more clever than smart, but Paul Fox directs with the same easygoing attitude of its slacker hero..." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer            The Evil Dead (1979)      "... one of the most entertaining American horror films of the 1980s, a stylish roller coaster starring a bloody, battered, lantern-jawed Bruce Campbell." [dvd review]      MSN.com       C-      The Ex (2007)      "An off-key comedy that has all the hallmarks of a desperate makeover..." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       B+      Exiled (2007)      "It's a fantasy of a crime epic, to be sure, but it's a glorious fantasy in which the unspoken bonds of brotherhood bathe every shootout and sacrifice in the light of myth." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       6/10      eXistenZ (1999)      Click here to see the review!

[movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       B      The Experiment (2002)      "There's not enough insight to the social phenomenon presented onscreen, but that doesn't make the utterly human horror of this thriller any less unsettling."

[movie review]      Turner Classic Movies Online       C+      The Express (2008)      "It's your basic uplifting sports story about the underdog who fights against the odds and triumphs." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer       B      The Eye (2003)      "The brothers are at their best playing in the style sandbox, creating shivery imagery and eerie moods..." [movie review]      Seattle Post-Intelligencer
