     (2005)      "promising, quite funny, but ultimately underwhelming" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
     (2008)      "Although the film is mindful of Milestone and Irvin's epics of squandered lives, its focus is tighter and less battle-charged, more Samuel Beckett than Oliver Stone." [movie review]      Film Journal International

3/5
     (2001)      "a family saga told with all the muscle of the best Sergio Leone western." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
4/5
     (2005)      "a story that's less like fiction and more like the way that families (and countries) actually age." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
2.5/4
     (2005)      "What keeps Bewitched just barely out of the summer slush pile is its sense of light-hearted fun." [movie review]      Slant Magazine   
  
4/5

3.5/5
     (2007)      "at its center is a core of bitter outrage that will leave at least some viewers in stunned, heart-stopping dismay by the time the lights go up" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
1.5/5
     (2004)      "Directorial chutzpah is not nearly enough to save this dull and distant vanity project." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
2.5/5
          "certainly competent enough, but no more so than a few newspaper articles on the same subject." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
3/5
     (1980)      "meant to be the culmination of a life’s work... It didn’t come to pass." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
     (2008)      "The same lack of personal distance that keeps Bell from scoring cheap shots against the anti-steroid hysterics is the same connection that powers the film's emotional take on America's cult of winning." [movie review]      Film Journal International   
  
2.5/5
     (2007)      "the best Verhoeven film since Basic Instinct -- if only that were a bigger compliment." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
2/5
     (2006)      "it seems time to stop making excuses for the man -- Brian de Palma has become one very bad director." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
3/5
     (2006)      "...gorgeously-shot, melancholy." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2004)      "There's something impressive about a film that manages to acknowledge the intrinsic lunacy of its concept without yet depriving the story of any of its power or immediacy." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
     (2008)      "...fails because the source material doesn't easily lend itself to cinema, and because the filmmaker is clearly out of his depth." [movie review]      PopMatters   
  
8/10
     (1967)      "Those returning to Bonnie and Clyde with this well-deserved special edition could well be shocked by how, well, shocking it is." [movie review]      PopMatters   
  
4/5
     (2004)      "Episodic and drenched in realism" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
     (2007)      "It's more than clear what a goof this all is, and a curiously happy one at that." [movie review]      Film Journal International   
  
3/5
     (2007)      "It's all too easy to see that the filmmakers and Damon are coasting when they could be soaring." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
     (2008)      "...Garfield presents an indelible portrait of a young man trying to figure out how to continue his life in the face of haunting secrets and a world that doesn't want to let him forget it." [movie review]      Film Journal International

     (2006)      "...a placid and creepy work, with hints of Hitchcock proliferating." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
2/5
     (2007)      "Cheap and ordinary. This isn't art, it's product." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "Krasinski stitches these raw blasts of the subconscious with interludes that exude a pleasing, Woody Allen-esque tone, all fall colors and potent theorizing over white wine" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com
