1.5/5	"As pure cinema, however, it is a punishing ordeal just to get through a single screening of this pretentious piece of nonsense." -- Jam! Movies Posted Jul 11, 2008	The 4th Life (2008)	60%
2/5	"The Promotion is generally harmless but boring." -- Jam! Movies Posted Jun 27, 2008	The Promotion (2008)	47%
2.5/5	"*Denys Arcand's Days of Darkness* have arrived, and not just as a film title.*" -- Jam! Movies* Posted Mar 21, 2008	Days of Darkness (2007)	n/a
4/5	"A light-hearted yet razor-smart, bittersweet comedy about life in Beirut." -- Jam! Movies Posted Feb 22, 2008	Caramel (2008)	91%
3.5/5	"While not overtly done, the entire movie explores what America is laughing about at this point in time -- and what people in the heartland don't find funny. Either way, it is illuminating." -- Jam! Movies Posted Feb 8, 2008	Wild West Comedy Show: 30 Days & 30 Nights - Hollywood to the Heartland (2008)	57%
2/5	"Not offensive. Not icky. Not even naughty. Just stupid." -- Jam! Movies Posted Feb 8, 2008	Fool's Gold (2008)	10%
4.5/5	"It is a masterwork on both an artistic and emotional level." -- Jam! Movies Posted Dec 26, 2007	The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (2007)	94%
3.5/5	"*For anyone who appreciates what The Life of Reilly* was really all about, it is worthwhile.*" -- Jam! Movies* Posted Nov 30, 2007	Life of Reilly (2007)	100%
4.5/5	"Both perplexing and engrossing as it explores humanity's animal instincts. This being McCarthy and the Coens, nothing is spelled out. The seeds are there and they will flourish in a fertile mind." -- Jam! Movies Posted Nov 9, 2007	No Country for Old Men (2007)	95%
4/5	"Simply put, do not go to this film if you are looking for a romantic comedy or a routine drama. Things We Lost in the Fire offers no such escapism. Instead, even in a fiction, it brings us face to face with the demons of life." -- Jam! Movies Posted Oct 19, 2007	Things We Lost in the Fire (2007)	64%
3.5/5	"While truth is stranger than fiction, even melodramatic films can focus those truths." -- Jam! Movies Posted Oct 19, 2007	Rendition (2007)	48%
3/5	"It is interesting and not riveting, lovely and not luxurious, good and not great. Some may even find it boring. It certainly is repetitive." -- Jam! Movies Posted Sep 28, 2007	Silk (2007)	8%
4.5/5	"Penn's melancholic epic is a slam-dunk." -- Jam! Movies Posted Sep 28, 2007	Into the Wild (2007)	83%
3.5/5	"Watching some sequences is as close to an actual drug experience as clean living can offer." -- Jam! Movies Posted Sep 14, 2007	Across the Universe (2007)	54%
4.5/5	"*Like A History of Violence, David Cronenberg's brilliant new film goes far beyond its thriller genre." -- Jam! Movies* Posted Sep 14, 2007	Eastern Promises (2007)	88%
3/5	"An earnest, thoughtful documentary." -- Jam! Movies Posted Aug 24, 2007	The 11th Hour (2007)	66%
2.5/5	"*The real problem is that The Last Legion* is just too boring.*" -- Jam! Movies* Posted Aug 17, 2007	The Last Legion (2007)	17%
3.5/4	"As a fictional version of historical fact, it artfully tells a story of humanity that will interest anyone who wants to understand what happens in a war zone when the shooting stops." -- Jam! Movies Posted Aug 17, 2007	Journey From The Fall (2007)	92%
1.5/5	"*Other than being silly most of the time and stupid on occasion, there is nothing offensive about Daddy Day Camp." -- Jam! Movies* Posted Aug 8, 2007	Daddy Day Camp (2007)	1%
2.5/5	"Robertson, making her directorial debut with this American production, manipulates her images in a manner that distorts the truth and brings into question what a documentary film is supposed to do." -- Jam! Movies Posted Aug 3, 2007	Arctic Tale (2007)	62%
2/5	"For my taste, it was better off left dead, roadkill on the cinematic highway." -- Jam! Movies Posted Jul 21, 2007	The Hitcher (2007)	19%
2.5/5	"The electrifying promise of the opening scenes gives way to tedium." -- Jam! Movies Posted Jul 6, 2007	Crime Novel (2005)	53%
4/5	"Sicko is sometimes funny and often poignant." -- Jam! Movies Posted Jun 29, 2007	Sicko (2007)	93%
4/5	"Deliciously chilling." -- Jam! Movies Posted Jun 23, 2007	The Page Turner (2007)	77%
4/5	"A Mighty Heart never sensationalizes the story or its characters, most of whom are based on real people." -- Jam! Movies Posted Jun 22, 2007	A Mighty Heart (2007)	77%
2/5	"Shannon's journey into darkness seems to have no real purpose other than turning into a depressing spectacle." -- Jam! Movies Posted Apr 20, 2007	Year of the Dog (2007)	69%
4/5	"If what Bier and veteran co-writer Anders Thomas Jensen created is melodrama, then so is the stuff of life." -- Jam! Movies Posted Apr 13, 2007	After The Wedding (2007)	87%
2/5	"Minimalist cinema should feel like a pure distillation of reality, not just a real drag." -- Jam! Movies Posted Apr 13, 2007	Sleeping Dogs (2006)	n/a
0.5/5	"The roman numeral in the title is the most sophisticated thing about the sequel. Otherwise, this radioactive spawn of Wes Craven is abysmal, stupid and -- horror of all horrors! -- incredibly boring." -- Jam! Movies Posted Apr 1, 2007	The Hills Have Eyes II (2007)	12%
3.5/5	"Even with its weaknesses, such as those many coincidences that keep the plot going, the film offers a unique and playful adventure seldom found in Hollywood cinema." -- Jam! Movies Posted Apr 1, 2007	Congorama (2006)	38%
4/5	"It is forceful. It is advocacy journalism. It is a documentary with a social conscience and a scientific agenda." -- Jam! Movies Posted Mar 23, 2007	Sharkwater (2007)	81%
3.5/5	"S. Wyeth Clarkson's hip new film is an energetic and appealing look at the skateboarding subculture." -- Jam! Movies Posted Feb 9, 2007	Sk8 Life (2006)	n/a
2.5/5	"The film never really takes off." -- Jam! Movies Posted Feb 7, 2007	Fired! (2007)	44%
3.5/5	"*For the most part, Catch And Release* is involving and occasionally endearing.*" -- Jam! Movies* Posted Jan 26, 2007	Catch and Release (2007)	23%
3/5	"If you care about the freedom of expression, including in the film industry, this documentary feature is important as a learning tool." -- Jam! Movies Posted Jan 19, 2007	This Film is Not Yet Rated (2006)	84%
1.5/5	"The problem is everything in between the production numbers. In most movies, that is called plot and character development. In Stomp The Yard, it is a rip-off of a bunch of beat-up, banal, and intellectually empty cliches." -- Jam! Movies Posted Jan 12, 2007	Stomp the Yard (2007)	27%
4/5	"Not perfect and meant to be disturbing for its take on complex moral issues, this British film is so well acted that it is Oscar-bound." -- Jam! Movies Posted Dec 22, 2006	Notes on a Scandal (2006)	87%
4.5/5	"Rarely in film history has such elaborate fantasy been put in the service of such a profound and serious treatment of reality. But Pan's Labyrinth is an extraordinary film made by an exceptional visionary." -- Jam! Movies Posted Dec 22, 2006	Pan's Labyrinth (2006)	96%
3/5	"All surface beauty, no substance. Zhang Yimou is a master but this film lacks storytelling prowess." -- Jam! Movies Posted Dec 22, 2006	Curse of the Golden Flower (2006)	65%
3.5/5	"Rocky, one of Hollywood's iconic characters, finally gets to retire with dignity." -- Jam! Movies Posted Dec 20, 2006	Rocky Balboa (2006)	76%
4/5	"As a Special Presentation in the Toronto film festival this past September, Snow Cake made a strong first impression. Now wider audiences have an opportunity to share in an experience that can enrich lives." -- Jam! Movies Posted Dec 15, 2006	Snow Cake (2007)	65%
3/5	"Not to everyone's tastes, this Quebec film is nasty, brutal and pulpish. But it has wry humour, too, and works by sucking you into its low-rent world." -- Jam! Movies Posted Dec 15, 2006	Cheech (2006)	n/a
2/5	"The whole enterprise feels empty, if inoffensive." -- Jam! Movies Posted Dec 8, 2006	The Puffy Chair (2006)	76%
2.5/5	"So what exactly, or even vaguely, is Mel Gibson trying to say that is not obvious, primitive and ridiculous? Mad Mel kept the answers to himself. They are not in the film." -- Jam! Movies Posted Dec 8, 2006	Apocalypto (2006)	65%
1.5/5	"Some movies are Hollywood's version of littering: Like half-eaten pizzas or rancid burgers, these flicks are tossed aside to rot in empty cinemas." -- Jam! Movies Posted Dec 4, 2006	Van Wilder: The Rise of Taj (2006)	8%
2/5	"Catherine Hardwicke's original Christmas film is not the greatest story ever told. It is plodding, drab and boring." -- Jam! Movies Posted Dec 1, 2006	The Nativity Story (2006)	39%
5/5	"A celebration of what women can and will do to survive this mortal coil. Penelope Cruz is transformed into a classic woman for all the ages." -- Jam! Movies Posted Nov 24, 2006	Volver (2006)	91%
2.5/5	"Fails to deliver the goods as an action comedy." -- Jam! Movies Posted Nov 24, 2006	Tenacious D in: The Pick of Destiny (2006)	53%
0.5/5	"It is awful, unfunny and moronic. And that applies to the best bits. Most of the movie is even worse." -- Jam! Movies Posted Nov 20, 2006	Let's Go to Prison (2006)	8%
3/5	"The results are mixed but still worth your time." -- Jam! Movies Posted Nov 17, 2006	Fast Food Nation (2006)	51%
