The Shaggy Dog (2006, 98 min., PG) 
There are precious few surprises here, but this breezy remake starring Tim Allen is a painless affair.
Shakes the Clown (1992, 83 min., R)
What the heck is it about clowns that makes them so easy to ridicule? Like Spike Lee said, maybe it's the shoes. In his directing debut, stand-up comedian Goldthwait plunges us head first into the seamy ...
Shakespeare in Love (1998, 113 min., R)
It's flighty, improbable stuff, meant not to be a historical restorative but a modern romantic tribute to the scribe whose words have launched a million sonnets.
Shakti: The Power (2002, 170 min., NR)
Shakti: The Power is an interesting new Bollywood release that is receiving a relatively large stateside release. The Hindi-language film (with English subtitles) is a peculiar mix of the usual Bollywood song-and-dance spectacle and an earthy ...
Shall We Dance? (1996, 136 min., PG)
Shall We Dance? is, at heart, something like a modern-day Cinderella, a story in which the protagonist is an overworked Japanese accountant with no social life and the glass slipper is a ballroom dancing shoe. Although ...
Shall We Dance? (2004, 106 min., PG-13)
Richard Gere, Jennifer Lopez, and Susan Sarandon co-star in in this tempting remake of a Japanese film about a man's midlife slump.
Shall We Kiss? (2007, 102 min., NR)
Quintessentially French in its preoccupation with the vagaries of l’amour, Shall We Kiss? is painfully dunderheaded about the proclivities of the human heart.
Shallow Grave (1994, 94 min., R)
From its opening titles -- set against the propulsive rhythms of a techno theme by Leftfield -- you know you're in for something different, something wild. First-time director Boyle scores impressively with this Scottish tale of ...
Shallow Hal (2001, 113 min., PG-13)
Shallow Hal. Shallow Movie. The notorious Farrelly Brothers (Dumb and Dumber, There's Something About Mary) fire a dud in their new film effort designed to tickle the heart as well as the funny bone. Although the ...
The Shallows (2016, 87 min., PG-13)
Blake Lively is trapped by a shark on her own bikini island
Shame (2011, 99 min., NC-17)
Exquisite control and spasmed anguish mark the performances of Michael Fassbender and Carey Mulligan in this dark, NC-17-rated story about a sex addict.
Shameless (1996)
Another in what may be a steady stream of films shot in Austin and featuring the exploits of those lovable goofs, the twentysomething Generation, Shameless is the story of three friends caught up in a very ...
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021, 132 min., PG-13)
Marvel's master of kung fu makes a convoluted cosmic splash
Shanghai Ghetto (2002, 95 min., NR)
Shanghai Ghetto is one of those feature documentaries that’s intrinsically interesting because of its subject matter but is nevertheless marred by the technical limitations of its talking-head narrative technique. Far too many films for theatrical release ...
Shanghai Knights (2003, 114 min., PG-13)
The casual anachronisms and historical/geographical inaccuracies in Shanghai Knights, the martial arts buddy comedy set in Victorian England, are either an irritation or its saving grace, depending on your perspective. If you’re the kind of person ...
Shanghai Noon (2000, 110 min., PG-13)
After more than 70 films, Jackie Chan has finally met his match, and wouldn't you know, it's Owen Wilson (UT acting alum and Wes Anderson's writing partner). With his scruffy blond mane and that battered nose ...
Shanghai Triad (1995, 109 min., R)
Blessed with a cinematic sensibility that appears only every so often -- Coppola, Scorsese, Almodovar, and Tarantino come to mind, to name just some of the relatively recent few -- Chinese filmmaker Zhang is creating a ...
Shaolin (2011, 130 min., R)
In this rousing film, a compassionate Buddhist philosophy underpins what might have been just another Hong Kong period piece about power-mad warlords and their blood-spattered brinkmanship.
Shaolin Kung Fu Mystagogue (1977)
This is the type of movie where the title pretty much tells you all you need to know: If the very idea of going to see a movie called Shaolin Kung Fu Mystagogue doesn't automatically sound ...
The Shape of Things (2003, 97 min., R)
Playwright and filmmaker Neil LaBute describes his latest, The Shape of Things, as a sort of retort to critics who branded him a misogynist for his first feature, In the Company of Men. The Shape of ...
The Shape of Water (2017, 123 min., R)
An unconventional love story from one of the best fabulists
Shark Night 3D (2011, 91 min., PG-13)
These sharks are as bland as their comely victims.
Shark Tale (2004, 90 min., PG)
Animated Shark Tale lacks bite.
Sharkwater (2006, 89 min., PG)
Rob Stewart, a marine biologist and underwater photographer, makes up for in passion what he lacks in narrative subtlety in this cautionary documentary about the eradication of the planet's sharks.
Sharp Stick (2022, 86 min., R)
Lena Dunham's latest exploration of messy people is pretty messy itself
Sharper (2023, 116 min., R)
A stylishly smart and satisfying con artist drama
Shattered (2022, 92 min., R)
Unerotic and unthrilling home invasion flick is seriously unsubtle
Shattered (1991)
Shattered is involving, even when it's clear that the plot twists and turns are headed inexorably for dumbsville. In a story out of 1940s noir, Berenger plays an architect who, after a terrible car accident and ...
Shattered Glass (2003, 95 min., PG-13)
Before Jayson Blair there was Stephen Glass, a fabricator of magazine stories, whose fall from grace is told here.
Shaun of the Dead (2004, 97 min., R)
This "romantic comedy … with zombies" has a note-perfect mix of humor, horror, love, and death.
