	"Another pop-culture icon lazily mined for ready cash. Mission accomplished." Posted Jul 2, 2008	Get Smart (2008)	53%
	"Sandler's unflappable Jewish gigolo superhero hairdresser act is an overconceptualized drag." Posted Jun 17, 2008	You Don't Mess with the Zohan (2008)	34%
	"Something like...It's a Wonderful Life, only rich in slaughter." Posted Jun 9, 2008	Open Range (2003)	78%
	"As the movie drifts into its third hour, you start to feel that it's not joy that's keeping you in the theater. It's duty." Posted Jun 4, 2008	Sex and the City: The Movie (2008)	51%
	" Babel...belongs to an unfortunately proliferating genre that might be called the higher kitsch." Posted Jun 1, 2008	Babel (2006)	68%

	"All [Gibson has] done...is to trade in the Hollywood conventions of yesteryear for the crasser, more bloodthirsty conventions of today." Posted May 17, 2008	The Passion of the Christ (2004)	50%
	"Michael Moore's fierce and funny Fahrenheit 9/11 is not so much a documentary as a mythology, reducing geopolitical complexities to a neat, tawdry narrative." Posted May 17, 2008	Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004)	83%
	"Transfixed by the taboos of the...British class system, Curtis seems to think that nothing could be more erotic than the subordinate who fetches tea or dusts the crockery." Posted May 17, 2008	Love Actually (2003)	64%
	"An astonishing, mesmerizing portrait not only of one man, but also of what commonly used to be called 'the American century'." Posted May 17, 2008	The Fog of War (2003)	98%
	"It is marked by a peculiarly English celebration of the Church Militant. That noted, it's also a ripping yarn." Posted May 17, 2008	The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe (2005)	75%
	"She is a human being." Posted May 12, 2008	The Queen (2006)	97%

	"As a reminder that Iran is a complex society with a long tradition of cosmopolitan interchange with the West, Persepolis could hardly be more welcome. As a narrative, however, the film sometimes loses its way." Posted May 10, 2008	Persepolis (2007)	96%
	""Someone in Hollywood must have it in for Thanksgiving. How else to explain the cruelly timed release of August Rush, a wretched confection that only the most determined will be able to count among their blessings?"" Posted May 8, 2008	August Rush (2007)	38%

	"An efficient, simply told story...in spite of the plot's neat contrivances and the movie's determination to pull some edifying nugget from the heartbreak and hopelessness at its core." Posted Mar 12, 2008	City of Men (2008)	76%
	"*Like its protagonist, 27 Dresses* undoes itself with niceness.*" Posted Feb 4, 2008*	27 Dresses (2008)	40%

	"Like the movie itself, Carell's performance doesn't really give you a reason to leave home, but if you find yourself watching it, you will be pleasantly surprised. To a degree." Posted Nov 7, 2007	Dan in Real Life (2007)	65%
	"*F. Scott Fitzgerald once remarked that there are no second acts in American lives. If only the same could be said about Shekhar Kapur's 1998 Elizabeth." Posted Oct 24, 2007*	Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007)	34%
	"Leave the gun. Take the blini." Posted Oct 10, 2007	We Own The Night (2007)	54%
	"Dirty Jodie" Posted Sep 26, 2007	The Brave One (2007)	44%

	"Even a high-powered cast proves unequal to the task of breathing life into these bloodless, lazily conceived phantoms." Posted Aug 30, 2007	The Nanny Diaries (2007)	34%
	"Director Cherie Nowlan is far too intent on serving up searing pathos washed down, inevitably, with a tub of soaring affirmation." Posted Aug 15, 2007	Introducing The Dwights (2007)	52%
	"A mostly buoyant, candy-colored diversion, leavened by perky performances and upbeat numbers whose lyrics and melodies you'll be hard-pressed to recall once you've left the theater." Posted Jul 25, 2007	Hairspray (2007)	91%
	"*The signal achievement of A Mighty Heart, somewhat at odds with its affirmative title, is the sense it creates of universal complicity." Posted Jun 27, 2007*	A Mighty Heart (2007)	77%
	"[An] unruly, often bracing misfire." Posted May 23, 2007	Georgia Rule (2007)	18%
	"As the Goblin and Sandman and whatnot multiply and start whizzing about, the proceedings in this grand hodgepodge are so disordered that it would be no surprise were a Nazg�l to wing into the scene, perhaps ridden by Dr. Zaius." Posted May 9, 2007	Spider-Man 3 (2007)	61%
	"Unintentionally makes a case for believing that the young have nothing of interest to say to their seniors, and very little of interest to say to each other." Posted May 3, 2007	In the Land of Women (2007)	43%
	"*Makes The Omen* look like a masterpiece of spiritual probing and cinematic integrity.*" Posted Apr 18, 2007*	The Reaping (2007)	8%
	"Reign Over Me surrounds its weighty subject with so much contrived nonsense that after a while the film feels like an affront to real suffering." Posted Apr 4, 2007	Reign Over Me (2007)	64%
	"*Something of a muddle....The level of social criticism and psychological portraiture shifts from Howard's End* to Mary Poppins.*" Posted Mar 21, 2007*	Miss Potter (2006)	65%
