Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
There is much talk of paralysis in Robert Redford's what's-wrong-with-America movie Lions for Lambs, and there is a whole lot of the same in the movie itself.

fresh:
It's definitely flawed but I am recommending it.

rotten:
The film is built not upon characters and plot but upon ideas. That would be fine if the ideas were revolutionary or interesting, but they're fairly commonplace.

fresh:
It means to use the Cruise-Redford-Streep star power to get us talking about things we ought to be talking about.

rotten:
Less a war drama than a set of dueling position papers.
