"Despite the tensions between its form and its function, The Dark Knight succeeds far more than it fails, and lingers provocatively in the mind." -- New Republic
Posted Jul 17, 2008
 
The Dark Knight (2008)94%
/
 
"It is a story about love and loneliness, perseverance and triumph, the possibilities and pitfalls of human existence. That this story is told by way of the exploits of a tiny, faceless robot only makes it more extraordinary." -- New Republic

WALL-E (2008)96%

"I've watched a movie that, while fiercely entertaining, made me fear for the emotional health of my gender. You have a problem with that?" -- New Republic
Posted Jun 27, 2008
 
Wanted (2008)73%
/
 
"Even as the movie occasionally trips over its nostalgias, it's still a likable, if unremarkable, entertainment, a pleasant echo of past delights." -- New Republic
Posted May 22, 2008
 
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)76%

"Speed Racer intends to convey a sense of heedless momentum, but it drags painfully." -- New Republic

"Even as Iron Man fulfills its genre obligations, it transcends them, thanks to lively direction by Favreau and, especially, the tour de force performance by Downey." -- New Republic

Iron Man (2008)93%

"I was not a fan of Spider-Man 2, a movie whose obsessive adherence to formula made it play more like a half-hearted remake of the original than a sequel. I'm happy to report that Spider-Man 3 has added some new ingredients to the recipe." -- New Republic
Posted May 3, 2007
 
Spider-Man 3 (2007)61%

"While the supporting players are a pleasure — especially backup doofuses David Cross and Todd Louiso -- Heder should probably have been among them." -- L.A. Weekly
Posted Sep 28, 2006
 
School for Scoundrels (2006)25%
/
 
"In a film that’s largely about the internal life of Bob/Fred, [Keanu] Reeves is at pains to show that he has one." -- L.A. Weekly
Posted Jul 6, 2006
 
A Scanner Darkly (2006)67%
/
 
"Self-conscious camp like this can weather (even requires) a certain degree of amateurishness. But there are limits, and Surge of Power’s sloppy writing and talent-show performances quickly exceed them." -- L.A. Weekly
Posted Mar 23, 2006
 
Surge of Power: The Stuff of Heroes ()n/a
/
 
"As is so often the case with Hollywood retreads, the joke is on us." -- L.A. Weekly
Posted Feb 9, 2006
 
Pink Panther (2006)24%
/
 
"There is a time to every purpose under heaven, but let us hope this particular one doesn’t last too long. Turn, turn, turn." -- L.A. Weekly
Posted Nov 23, 2005
 
Yours, Mine, & Ours (2005)5%
/
 
"The movie pitches itself as a modern-day Romeo and Juliet, but its execution is so lazy and inept that if the lovers were to die horribly it would come more as relief than tragedy." -- L.A. Weekly
Posted Nov 23, 2005
 
In The Mix (2005)9%
/
 
"Saw II repels, morally and aesthetically, and while some -- including the filmmakers, perhaps -- may take this as a compliment, it isn’t intended as one." -- L.A. Weekly
Posted Oct 27, 2005
 
Saw II (2005)36%
