[movie review]      Filmcritic.com       9/10      A Scanner Darkly (2006)      "...like Cubism in human form, woozy and kaleidoscopic." [movie review]      PopMatters            About Adam (2001)      "A lesser film might have taken a darker and more obvious route with Adam's uncanny ability to be whoever people want him to be, but About Adam plays it with a warm and knowing wink of the eye." [movie review]      Citysearch       1.5/5      Adam Resurrected (2008)      "Between Jeff Goldblum's wildly over-mannered performance and the schlocky treatment of serious subject matter, it's hard to know whether to simply dismiss the film or be outraged by it." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com            Adventureland (2009)      "A loping comedy of displacement that snaps off dozens of easy laughs without breaking a sweat..." [movie review]      PopMatters       2.5/5      An Affair to Remember (1957)      "surprisingly tedious" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com            Afghan Star (2009)      "Although sadly rife with gut-clenching moments as those, Afghan Star is most thrilling when depicting the show's delicately balanced effort to bring Afghans together despite their fractious ethnic and clan boundaries." [movie review]      The Hollywood Reporter       2.5/5      After Innocence (2005)      "the grotty details of the political and legal muck miring the entire process are nowhere to be found" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       3/5      Aileen: The Life and Death of a Serial Killer (2003)      "Broomfield is mostly just shooting from the hip and missing as much as he scores" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       4/5      All That Jazz (1979)      "Narcissistic and self-indulgent to a fault, it’s also like nothing you’ve ever seen before and probably never will again." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       3/5      Alone With Her (2007)      "exudes the overall uncomfortable air of watching a depraved home movie" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com            Amelie (2001)      "Tautou's sublime performance and the film's unshakable devotion to her make for a deeply satisfying experience." [movie review]      Citysearch       1.5/5      Amen (2003)      "a sputtering, wet firecracker" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com            American Blackout (2006)      "A raised-fist documentary on black voter disenfranchisement which loses some, but definitely not all, its punch by morphing into a paid ad for Cynthia McKinney." [movie review]      Film Journal International       2/5      American Dreamz (2006)      "It's not really a cynical or outrageous point of view, but just a really lazy one, and offensively, exploitatively so." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       2.5/5      American Gangster (2007)      "takes what should have been a mesmerizing slice of urban historical grit and grinds it into roughly two hours of standard issue cinema" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com            American Gun (2006)      "...more like talking points for a film than a finished product. The effects of violence and the gun trade are examined, but little light is shed." [movie review]      Film Journal International       3.5/5      American Hardcore (2006)      "tells you everything you need to know about how vital this music was" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       3/5      An Education (2009)      "purrs along like a finely-calibrated machine for its first two thirds" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       2.5/5      Anastasia (1956)      "This is one historical mystery that is often not mysterious and too unconcerned with history." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       1/5      Anatomy of Hell (2004)      "a font of faux profundity" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com            Angel-A (2007)      "Ultimately too slight a work on which to end a directorial career." [movie review]      Film Journal International       3/5      Angels in America (2003)      "Heavily (and correctly) lauded, but possibly quickly forgotten" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       3/5      Anything Else (2003)      "surprisingly relaxed" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       4/5      Apocalypse Now: The Complete Dossier (1979)      "It's the journey, not the destination." [movie review]      ToxicUniverse.com       2.5/5      The Architect (2006)      "sapped by sluggish direction" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       1.5/5      Around the Bend (2004)      "The kind of thing that would be playing nonstop if there were a Lifetime Network for Men" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       2.5/5      The Assassination of Richard Nixon (2004)      "The primary problem with "The Assassination of Richard Nixon" comes in its attempts to make drama out of a minor man's minor stab at infamy." [movie review]      Film Threat       3/5      Asylum (2005)      "a number of elements in Asylum strain credulity" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com       4.5/5      The Aviator (2004)      "...an aggressive, overwhelming piece of cinema that raises the year's cinematic G.P.A. all by itself." [movie review]      Film Threat       5/10      Away We Go (2009)      "A finely pedigreed comic road film that, when all is said and done, is too finely-tooled for the NPR set to have much life left in it." [movie review]      PopMatters
