Arthur and the Invisibles (2006, 94 min., PG) 
Live-action/animation hybrid from Luc Besson features a host of hip vocal talent but little more.
Arthur Christmas (2011, 100 min., PG) 
The folks at Aardman Animation, who gave us Wallace & Gromit, seve up an instant – and funny – holiday classic.
Arthur Newman (2013, 101 min., R)
Colin Firth and Emily Blunt star in this road picture about two people who try to escape their identities but fall in love and learn to accept their responsibilities.
Article Ninety-Nine (1992, 100 min., R)
Like Robert Altman's M*A*S*H, Article 99 aspires to be another anti-establishment film, rallying not against the Army itself, but instead the Veterans Administration, that sometimes shady mountain of bureaucracy, red tape, and steadfast inefficiency that purports ...
The Artist (2011, 100 min., PG-13)
It's a silent, black-and-white film for the 21st century, full of coy delights.
Arzak Rhapsody (2003, 70 min., NR)
Arzak Rhapsody is a gorgeous and easily digested slice of Gallic animé by Heavy Metal magazine creator Moebius. American premiere.

There are things in the catacombs beneath Paris that should remain underground.
As Good as It Gets (1997, 138 min., PG-13)
Nicholson and Hunt both won Oscars for their respective roles as a rude and obsessive-compulsive writer and the waitress who grows to love him.
As Tears Go by (1988, 102 min., NR)
A stylish if formulaic addition to the seemingly endless onslaught of crime films that dominated the Hong Kong cinema of the late Eighties, As Tears Go By also marked the promising, if not entirely successful, debut ...
Ascension (2021, 97 min., NR)
Enthralling glimpses inside the dark side of the Chinese Dream
Ash Is Purest White (2019, 135 min., NR)
The emotional cost of a life of crime across two decades in Northern China
Ashes of Time (1994, 100 min., NR)
Easily the most ambitious picture of last year, this epic, action melodrama from director Wong Kar Wei (The Days of Being Wild) is so structurally complex in its unfolding of plot and characters, not to mention ...
Ashes of Time Redux (2008, 93 min., R)
Dreamlike, confounding, yet possessed of a stunningly complex sensual and narrative poetry, Wong Kar-Wai's Chinese film is absolutely gorgeous.
Ashkal: The Tunisian Investigation (2023, 94 min., NR)
Tunisia's buried history burns in this chilling supernatural noir
Asian Connection (1995, 110 min., NR)
If your culinary tastes run to wild boar cutlets served on polenta with green peppercorns and port wine sauce, you can definitely get that in Austin. But taken as a whole, this is still more of ...
Aspen Extreme (1993)
You've seen this fairy tale a hundred times before. Yearning to fulfill his dreams and follow his passion for skiing, little boy bluecollar (Gross) sets out in search of love and the meaning of life in ...
Assassination Nation (2018, 110 min., R)
Dark satire lets social media tear us apart
The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007, 160 min., R)
The Assassination of Jesse James may be the world’s first epic of misguided hero worship.
The Assassination of Richard Nixon (2004, 95 min., R)
First-time director Niels Mueller tells "the mad story of a true man" in this tragic portrait of Sam Bicke, who tried to fly an airplane into the White House in 1974.
Assassins (1995, 105 min., R)
A surprisingly effective thriller, Assassins is much better than it needs to be, thanks mainly to a fast-paced script and two great supporting performances. Stallone, fresh from the not-as-bad-as-you've-heard, box-office flop Judge Dredd, takes on a ...
Assassin's Creed (2016, 116 min., PG-13)
Popular video game series hits the screen
Assault on Precinct 13 (2005, 109 min., R)
This new version of John Carpenter's classic is superfluous in the extreme, and while it’s not technically a bad movie, per se, viewers unfamiliar with the film’s lineage will likely write it off as yet another midwinter also-ran, the sort of action film that never quite takes off and instead focuses on random gun battles and cheesy dialogue.
The Assistant (2020, 87 min., R)
The film industry’s quiet complicity in #MeToo crimes placed in stark context
Assisted Living (2003, 78 min., NR)
Greenebaum's superstylized first feature attempts to mesh fiction with nonfiction while remaining a narrative, and it attempts to do it almost entirely in the confines of a nursing home, entirely in one day.
The Associate (1996, 114 min., PG-13)
Whoopi Goldberg's career machinations remain a mystery to me, and this new film from the director of Grumpy Old Men only heightens the terminal suspense: When will she pick a decent comedy script? Apparently Jumping Jack ...
Asteroid City (2023, 105 min., PG-13)
Wes Anderson is at his most enigmatic in a UFO tale within a tale
Astro Boy (2009, 94 min., PG)
This American-bred Astro Boy remains true to the heart and soul of the Japanese original but lacks its raw animation and emotions.
The Astronaut Farmer (2007, 104 min., PG)
This note-perfect film by the Polish brothers almost could be a relic from another age, an inspirational drama about staying true to one’s dreams no matter the social, economic, or emotional cost.
The Astronaut's Wife (1999, 110 min., R)
You have to wonder if the appearance here of Samantha Eggar is a coincidence. In David Cronenberg's 1979 film The Brood, she tackled a similar motif, that of the genre-specific pregnancy from hell, and did it ...
Asylum (2005, 99 min., R)
In this adaptation of Patrick McGrath's novel, Natasha Richardson and Ian McKellan wonder if the patients have taken over the asylum.
