2.5/4
 
"It's entertaining, often funny and ultimately endearing, thanks mainly to its ensemble cast." -- Newsday

2.5/4
 
"Nudie magazines, dog poop, words like 'mangina' -- if these are a few of your favorite things, Step Brothers is the comedy for you." -- Newsday

"For die-hard Reed fans, it's an invaluable document." -- Newsday

Lou Reed's Berlin (2008)83%

3.5/4
 
"It's a comic-book movie, but it's also a dark and highly complex drama." -- Newsday

The Dark Knight (2008)95%
/
3/4
 
"Journey may be an utterly weightless movie, but in the end it floats rather nicely." -- Newsday

Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008)60%

3/4
 
"Hellboy II, like its 2004 predecessor, has a middling story line, but it's made memorable by the dark, freaky visions of director Guillermo del Toro. And this time, his imagination runs wilder than ever." -- Newsday
Posted Jul 11, 2008
 
Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)87%

3/4
 
"Director Peter Berg knows the difference between cartoon violence and the real stuff, and Hancock mixes both to good effect." -- Newsday

4/4
 
"Like Charlie Chaplin's best silents -- a clear influence -- WALL-E is pure visual magic. As a bonus, it packs a wicked satirical punch." -- Newsday

WALL-E (2008)96%
/
2.5/4
 
"Wanted demands a high level of credulity, but in exchange it offers some rewards: improbable car-chases, gritty hand-to-hand combat and the sight of Angelina Jolie poured into her pants and packing a pistol." -- Newsday
Posted Jun 26, 2008
 
Wanted (2008)72%

2.5/4
 
"Get Smart does all it can to please; thanks mostly to Carell, it just barely succeeds." -- Newsday

Get Smart (2008)53%
/
3/4
 
"The overall glow remains golden, of course. But with a dash of realism and more than a little intelligence, Kit Kittredge becomes a kiddie film that's worth an adult ticket, too." -- Newsday
Posted Jun 19, 2008
 
Kit Kittredge: An American Girl (2008)80%
/
3/4
 
"A finely observed, compelling drama with the creepy tinge of a thriller." -- Newsday
Posted Jun 12, 2008
 
Quid Pro Quo (2008)64%
/
3/4
 
"Granted, this documentary (surely the weirdest ever funded by the Discovery Channel) could have used more editing. But it's the notebook of a genius, and well worth cracking open." -- Newsday
Posted Jun 12, 2008
 
Encounters at the End of the World (2008)95%
/
3/4
 
"This is well-worn territory, from the cuddly slapstick to the Chinese wisdom, but the movie redeems itself with some surprisingly smart and tender moments." -- Newsday
Posted Jun 5, 2008
 
Kung Fu Panda (2008)88%
/
3/4
 
"Crude, idiotic, ridiculous -- in other words, flat-out hilarious, and Sandler's funniest film in years." -- Newsday
Posted Jun 5, 2008
 
You Don't Mess with the Zohan (2008)34%
/
3/4
 
"Howard Rodman's fine-tuned script and terrific acting across the board (Hugh Dancy is marvelous as a fashionable, well-manicured monster) makes Savage Grace a pleasure -- albeit a ghastly one -- to watch." -- Newsday

Savage Grace (2008)42%

3/4
 
"All the necessary ingredients are here: ancient riddles, rumbling stone technology, a precious artifact with supernatural powers. And Harrison Ford, as Indiana Jones, still looks dashing in a leather bomber jacket or professorial tweed." -- Newsday
Posted May 18, 2008
 
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)76%
/
3/4
 
"A small-scale but thoroughly engrossing drama full of strong performances and sharp dialogue." -- Newsday
Posted May 9, 2008
 
Turn the River (2008)75%
/
3/4
 
"Against all odds it succeeds, making for a spectacular -- and spectacularly strange -- viewing experience." -- Newsday

Speed Racer (2008)36%

4/4
 
"You probably won't find a more illuminating account of what happened within the walls of Abu Ghraib." -- Newsday

Standard Operating Procedure (2008)78%
/
3/4
 
"Thanks to the two stars' disparate styles - the laser-like focus of Li and the whirlwind whimsy of Chan - The Forbidden Kingdom makes up for its flaws with plenty of eye-popping moments." -- Newsday
Posted Apr 18, 2008
 
The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)63%

3/4
 
"Director Vadim Perelman blends two powerful performances into a seamless whole, giving equal time to the dreamy sensuality of adolescence and the crushing weight of adulthood." -- Newsday

The Life Before Her Eyes (2008)26%
/
3/4
 
"Quaid finds what is funny and endearing and worthy in the character, and his performance holds this fine, if somewhat fragile, film together." -- Newsday

Smart People (2008)49%

3/4
 
"Both behind and before the camera, Clooney imbues Leatherheads with an irresistible charm and intelligence, raising it far above the average period piece." -- Newsday

3/4
 
"If you never twirled barefoot in the funky old club, Wetlands Preserved may be of limited interest, but it's a loving and thorough document of a small slice of rock history." -- Newsday

Wetlands Preserved: The Story of an Activist Nightclub (2008)89%

"Ribas delivers a natural, earthy performance that has helped this film win numerous awards on the festival circuit." -- Newsday

Alice's House (2008)90%
/
3/4
 
"It's a lovely portrait of a fabled time and place, but wasn't there a bit of ugliness, too?" -- Newsday
Posted Jan 2, 2008
 
Honeydripper (2007)68%
/
3/4
 
"[Director Temple's] documentary can be quite clear-eyed, especially when exploring Strummer's lesser-known years before and after The Clash. As Strummer attempts to define and redefine himself, he seems human but still heroic." -- Newsday
Posted Nov 2, 2007
 
Joe Strummer: The Future is Unwritten (2007)88%
/
3/4
 
"Pete Seeger: The Power of Song could have been called Pete Seeger: The First Punk. As the film traces the singer's long life, it also, inevitably, tracks the evolution of American countercultures through much of the 20th century." -- Newsday
Posted Oct 25, 2007
 
Pete Seeger - The Power of Song (2007)95%
/
3/4
 
"The director, Asger Leth, isn't terribly organized, but he puts us smack in the middle of everything: petty squabbles, horrible riots, casual shootings, even a love triangle." -- Newsday
Posted Jun 28, 2007
 
Ghosts of Cite Soleil (2007)81%
/
3/4
 
"So many computer-animated movies are brash, loud and popping with pop-culture comedy, but Ratatouille has the warm glow of a favorite book. The characters are more than the sum of their gigabyte-consuming parts -- they feel handcrafted." -- Newsday
Posted Jun 28, 2007
 
Ratatouille (2007)95%
/
3/4
 
"A sensitive case-study of a promising artist who fell afoul of the system but still managed, with the help of family, to reassemble his shattered life." -- Newsday
Posted Jun 7, 2007
 
You're Gonna Miss Me - A Film About Roky Erickson (2007)78%
/
3/4
 
"Like any good documentarian (and unlike most publicists), Klores lets us draw our own conclusions. With a tone free of outrage or judgment, he tells the story of Pugach, a successful young lawyer, and Riss, a hottie with a taste for the good life." -- Newsday
Posted May 31, 2007
 
Crazy Love (2007)78%

3/4
 
"... promises slightly more than it delivers but still comes together nicely." -- Newsday
Posted Apr 9, 2007
 
Whole New Thing (2007)67%
/
3/4
 
"The plot isn't much, but that's OK: The directing team of Will Speck and Josh Gordon throw their jokes at the wall in rapid succession, and most of them stick." -- Newsday
Posted Mar 29, 2007
 
Blades of Glory (2007)69%
/
3/4
 
"It's nice to spend time in a mostly sunny world where everyone ends up happy. Except, that is, for the worms." -- Newsday

How to Eat Fried Worms (2006)58%

"Like Hitchcock or Clouzot, Chabrol excels at building a sense of dread." -- Newsday
