2/4	A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001)	"Neither vintage Spielberg nor classic Kubrick. This hybrid film borrows from the vision of both directors with disappointing results."	Michael Elliott



2/4	Abandon (2002)	" Perhaps the filmmakers took their title too much to heart. It would appear that they decided to Abandon their film before giving it a proper ending."	Michael Elliott



3/4	About a Boy (2002)	"Refreshingly sweet and funny film"	Michael Elliott



2/4	About Schmidt (2002)	"The detailed characterizations are interesting but often depressingly sad and the overall feeling we're left with by the end of the film is one of disappointment."	Michael Elliott



3/4	Adaptation (2002)	"The irony will undoubtedly be lost on some, but for those who get the joke, it will be impossible not to appreciate what Kaufman has done."	Michael Elliott



2.5/4	The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle (2000)	"Subtle verbal humor geared towards the adults is not...effective"	Michael Elliott



2/4	Aeon Flux (2005)	"Hardly the train wreck that many predicted it would be."	Michael Elliott



3/4	Affliction (1997)	"Nolte lays his character bare before us, showing us an up close and personal insight to a mind gone terribly wrong. "	Michael Elliott



2.5/4	Against the Ropes (2003)	"This fictionalized tale is less interesting than the real story but tells a decent story of a person beating the odds."	Michael Elliott



2/4	Agent Cody Banks (2003)	"A good premise marred by poor judgment on the part of the filmmakers."	Michael Elliott



2.5/4	The Alamo (2004)	"At times it is an engrossing drama of tragic proportions and at other times it is droning rhetoric."	Michael Elliott



2.5/4	Alex and Emma (2003)	"The romantic sparks between the two never quite ignite but [they] are likable enough for us to be rooting for them to get together."	Michael Elliott



1/4	Alexander (2004)	"A flaw-filled epic treatment that may do more to destroy the conqueror's legend than all the armies he once opposed."	Michael Elliott



2.5/4	Alfie (2004)	"By softening this character [Alfie], the director has managed to weaken his movie."	Michael Elliott



2.5/4	Ali (2001)	"A director's idea of a filmed "rope-a-dope" for it seems to go on forever, lands few punches, and ultimately wears us down."	Michael Elliott



0/4	All About My Mother (1999)	"The film provides strong roles for a number of actresses who make full use of them."	Michael Elliott



1/4	All the Pretty Horses (2000)	"It is pretty ... pretty slow, pretty dull."	Michael Elliott



3/4	Almost Famous (2000)	"A film that casts a wistful and loving eye on the era and the music embraced by so many."	Michael Elliott



1/4	Almost Heroes (1998)	"The film quickly moves from promising to disappointing to ultimately ridiculous."	Michael Elliott



2.5/4	Along Came a Spider (2001)	"A slighly above average potboiler which is disappointing only because the ingredients were present for the film to be so much more."	Michael Elliott



2/4	Along Came Polly (2004)	"Ben and Jennifer (Stiller and Aniston, not the other ones) are... doing the same shtick we've seen them do many times before."	Michael Elliott



4/4	Amazing Grace (2007)	"Not only is it an engaging drama, it is a much needed look at an historical event that may have been forgotten by many."	Michael Elliott



4/4	America's Heart and Soul (2004)	"A wonderful, life-affirming film that serves to remind us where the greatness of [America] can best be found."	Michael Elliott



3/4	America's Sweethearts (2001)	"There are enough genuine laughs and recognizable character types that make America's Sweethearts an enjoyable diversion."	Michael Elliott



2/4	American Beauty (1999)	"There is nothing beautiful in this American Beauty."	Michael Elliott



2/4	American Experience - Return With Honor (1999)	"(The filmmakers) have done well to not only bring (the POW's) story to the screen, but to allow them to tell it themselves. "	Michael Elliott



2.5/4	American Gangster (2007)	"It is only when [Crowe and Washington] have their one big scene together that we realize what we've been missing all along."	Michael Elliott



3/4	American History X (1998)	"(Norton's) characterization is totally believable and frighteningly real. "	Michael Elliott



2/4	American Outlaws (2001)	"If one isn't too concerned about historical accuracy, there is a modicum of enjoyment to be had in this light and airy summer offering."	Michael Elliott



1/4	American Pie (1999)	"Sex, sex, sex, light sprinkling of insincere moral message, back for more sex."	Michael Elliott



2/4	American Pie 2 (2001)	"More of the same. This sexual coming-of-age story is getting a bit long in the tooth."	Michael Elliott



3.5/4	American Splendor (2003)	"A tribute or testament to an average guy whose only claim to fame is that he embraces and celebrates his "averageness.""	Michael Elliott



2/4	American Wedding (2003)	"With a "wedding" this crude one can only shudder to think about the reception."	Michael Elliott



2.5/4	Amores Perros (2001)	"Though not for all tastes, including mine, it is nevertheless an impressive piece of artistry coming from a novice filmmaker."	Michael Elliott



2/4	Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid (2004)	"The film uses a largely unknown cast that screams nicely and appears to be easily digestible."	Michael Elliott



1.5/4	Analyze That (2002)	"As Hollywood painfully proves time and time again, box office lightning rarely strikes twice in the same spot."	Michael Elliott



4/4	Analyze This (1998)	"Hysterically funny"	Michael Elliott



1.5/4	Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004)	"Will Ferrell milks his pompous, chauvinistic character for all it is worth but the comedy teat quickly runs dry."	Michael Elliott



2/4	Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera (2004)	"The screen version reminds us of the intense passion to be found in the stage play but it fails to match it. "	Michael Elliott



2/4	Angel Eyes (2001)	"Angel Eyes is at best a hit and miss production."	Michael Elliott



3/4	Angela's Ashes (1999)	"It is a delicately crafted film which tells the story of a miserable childhood."	Michael Elliott



1.5/4	Anger Management (2003)	"Poorly written, poorly directed, and poorly edited, this film wastes more opportunities for humor than it uses."	Michael Elliott



1.5/4	The Animal (2001)	"essentially a one-joke movie."	Michael Elliott



5/5	Animal Crackers (1930)	No article available.	Michael Elliott



2/4	Anna and the King (1999)	"Where the film fails is in the narrative retelling of the story."	Michael Elliott



1.5/4	Annapolis (2006)	"Never makes it out of dry dock."	Michael Elliott



1.5/4	The Anniversary Party (2001)	"When the histrionics begin (and continue), we simply aren't compelled to care enough to follow them down their angst-ridden path of self-discovery."	Michael Elliott



1/4	Antitrust (2001)	"If only the script were as intelligent as the characters in it."	Michael Elliott



3/4	Antwone Fisher (2002)	"There's an undercurrent of intelligence and humor which helps ground the film and a considerable amount of restraint in dealing with sensitive matters."	Michael Elliott



4/4	Antz (1998)	"Who’d have ever though that Woody Allen’s most effective screen role would be a neurotic worker ant in a computer animated feature film?"	Michael Elliott
