A	"*If you enjoyed any of [writer-director Scott] Frank's previous work, or thought Brick* was the bomb, you'll love this.*" Posted Mar 30, 2007*	The Lookout (2007)	87%
A	"The Namesake doesn't reduce itself to simple ethnic politics and easy critiques." Posted Mar 23, 2007	The Namesake (2007)	85%
A	"Black Snake Moan is a gorgeous, life-affirming movie. On paper, it sounds lurid bordering on ridiculous." Posted Mar 2, 2007	Black Snake Moan (2007)	66%
A	"It's an ambitious, passionate, grief-stricken work of film art." Posted Nov 22, 2006	The Fountain (2006)	51%
A	"A compelling piece of journalism arguing O'Grady is one of hundreds of 'sexualized' priests shielded by an absolute bureaucracy that's been corrupted absolutely." Posted Nov 10, 2006	Deliver Us From Evil (2006)	100%
A	"The teachers have moxie. The students have courage. Mermin's warm, funny, beautiful and deeply humane documentary certainly honors the latter." Posted Sep 15, 2006	The Beauty Academy of Kabul (2006)	87%
A	"Serrill's disciplined, beautifully constructed film is so propulsive, so spiritually triumphant, it's absolutely one of the best sports docs ever." Posted Jul 7, 2006	The Heart of the Game (2006)	86%
A	"By presenting murderers as actors and then filming those actors discussing their sins, the line between performance and soul-searching blurs in unnerving ways." Posted Apr 14, 2006	Shakespeare Behind Bars (2006)	92%
A	"Too many great moments happen to list." Posted Mar 3, 2006	Dave Chappelle's Block Party (2006)	92%
A-	"A dry, vicious and deeply moving little comedy that sort of takes the structure of a teen sports movie, then undermines that structure at every turn." Posted Aug 17, 2007	Rocket Science (2007)	84%
A-	"Savage little morality tale." Posted May 4, 2007	The TV Set (2007)	65%
A-	"James Longley's Sundance-winning documentary puts the camera uncomfortably close to scenes of abuse, violence, terror, cynicism and racial hatred amid the rubble of U.S.-occupied Iraq. But at the same time, its texture is frequently beautiful." Posted Jan 26, 2007	Iraq in Fragments (2006)	91%
A-	"*Though "shock scares" usually feel kind of cheap, The Descent* uses them as punctuation marks to enhance the larger sense of dread.*" Posted Aug 4, 2006*	The Descent (2006)	85%
A-	"The house itself -- with a porch for a mouth, a carpet for a tongue and a chandelier for a uvula -- is terrifying in the family friendly way old Disney movies are terrifying, and the story packs a few genuine surprises too good to spoil here." Posted Jul 21, 2006	Monster House (2006)	73%
A-	"A sort of wandering rom-com epic -- kicking romantic fallacies in the ribs while capturing something essential about the solipsism and dreams of young urbanites." Posted Jun 30, 2006	Russian Dolls (2006)	72%
