Sort by RATING      Sort by TITLE/YEAR      Sort by QUOTE      Sort by SOURCE       B      Dark Water (2005)      "[Connelly] does superior work creating a woman struggling to be a good mother while feeling like she’s falling to pieces." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       B+      Dave Chappelle's Block Party (2006)      "[Chappelle's] an edgy comedian, but his purpose with the concert and film is to make a diverse crowd feel comfortable with one another. More than any message, that effort is likely to be remembered." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       B+      Dear Frankie (2005)      "True to its weepy telefilm resemblance, Dear Frankie delivers several eye-dabbing moments, but the tears...are earned through solid storytelling and subdued acting." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       C-      Death of a President (2006)      "[The director] has expertly interwoven real and simulated footage to make a film that looks convincing, but it amounts to little more than a clever editing exercise." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       D+      Deck the Halls (2006)      "A few laughs are sprinkled in this equivalent of a lame sitcom holiday episode, but the broad comedy and treacly ending are unlikely to put anyone in the Christmas spirit." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       C      Dedication (2007)      "Dedication's problem isn't its idealized conception of love but the thoroughly unconvincing way in which it is realized." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       B-      Definitely, Maybe (2008)      "Definitely, Maybe stumbles along the way to its destination just like its protagonist does, but the humor and heart compensate for the lack of sure footing that extends all the way to the uncertainty in the title." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       B      Deja Vu (2006)      "An unforeseen mix of action, sci-fi, and even a hint of romance, Deja Vu's pleasures are in delivering what we don't see coming." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       F      Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo (2005)      "Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo recycles its lowest common denominator dirty joke even though it wasn’t very good the first time." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       B-      The Devil Wears Prada (2006)      "Streep plays Miranda subtly, not needing theatrics for the razorblade spitting she does to nick all of the unquestionably incompetent people around the character." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       A-      Diary of a Chambermaid (1964)      "Diary of a Chambermaid is a piercing examination of the bourgeoisie and its obsessions. Buñuel shows us the horrifying actions and results with varying amounts of drama and humor like only he could." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       D-      A Dirty Shame (2004)      "A Dirty Shame is outrageous for the sake of being outrageous, but unlike some of Waters' other films, it's neither shocking nor funny." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       C+      Disturbia (2007)      "With the burden of inevitable comparisons to Hitchcock's masterpiece upon it, Disturbia carves out its own modest spot as a decent thriller until caving in to the demand for a big finish." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       A-      The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (2007)      "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly transcends the uplifting movie-of-the-week story through Schnabel's artful direction and deep empathy." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       F      DOA: Dead or Alive (2007)      "If junior high school boys wrote a cheesecake syndicated TV show and spun it off into a movie, the result would be DOA: Dead or Alive." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       D+      Domino (2005)      "Domino looks like what an Avid might vomit up after partially digesting the digitized footage. It's flashy as hell, but the amphetamine-fueled method is compensating for a distinct lack of substance." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       F      Doom (2005)      "Gamers would be better off playing Doom or sitting in front of a blank screen than wasting time with this incredibly dull Aliens rip-off." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       D      Dragonball: Evolution (2009)      "Except for the presence of Hong Kong star Chow Yun-Fat, this shoddy live-action film is no different or bigger than the sort of junk kids plop down to watch on TV after school." [movie review]      Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema       C      Drillbit Taylor (2008)      "Produced by Judd Apatow and co-written by Seth Rogen, Drillbit Taylor has a been there, done that quality reminiscent of Superbad if it were much tamer and less funnier."
