	"The reasoned arguments of these motivated, eloquent young people and the passionate but substantive confrontations in the streets are strangely heartwarming; it�s a level of engagement that has proven sadly elusive for most conflicted countries." -- Village Voice Posted May 7, 2008	Unsettled (2008)	100%
	"The disappointment here doesn't have much to do with Wong doing America -- he's been doing America for years, even in Chinese -- but with Wong doing Wong, and not up to his own standard." -- Village Voice Posted Apr 2, 2008	My Blueberry Nights (2008)	48%
	"The film's destination feels overdetermined despite its sweetness." -- Village Voice Posted Mar 18, 2008	Under the Same Moon (2008)	74%
	"Theron and Woody Harrelson (as James's party pal Randall) provide vitality against the film's heavy load, but they aren't around long enough to keep it from collapsing under its own portentous weight." -- Village Voice Posted Mar 11, 2008	Sleepwalking (2008)	16%
	"Brooks deserves credit for a fairly satisfying survey of a heart wanting what it wants, thinking it wants what it doesn't want, wanting the first thing again and then waking up to what it needs." -- Reeler Posted Feb 14, 2008	Definitely, Maybe (2008)	72%
	"A truly lovely film, as patient and generous with its characters as viewers should be with its delicately latent politics and occasional over-love of eccentric tableaux." -- Reeler Posted Feb 8, 2008	The Band's Visit (2007)	98%
	"Lior's big moment is an underdog weeper for the ages; I only wish the 80 minutes that preceded it had been as powerful." -- Reeler Posted Jan 31, 2008	Praying with Lior (2008)	72%
	"Labaki infuses her story of beauty, friendship, longing and constraint with that so painfully epitomized in the plight of her native Lebanon." -- Reeler Posted Jan 31, 2008	Caramel (2008)	91%
	"Hutt's instincts are solid, if occasionally unfocused; he'll be ready to turn pro any day now." -- Reeler Posted Jan 29, 2008	Orthodox Stance (2008)	47%
	"Farrell's performance is the highlight in this uneven English blend of high drama and afternoon telly." -- Reeler Posted Jan 17, 2008	Cassandra's Dream (2008)	50%
	"*The Enron* director's sharp, shaming torture expos� tracks another Great American Meltdown.*" -- Reeler* Posted Jan 17, 2008	Taxi to the Dark Side (2008)	100%
	"Director Abby Epstein is clearly biased in favor of home birth, but that doesn't make her case any less square." -- Reeler Posted Jan 14, 2008	The Business Of Being Born (2008)	76%
	"Although the painting montages become somewhat burdensome in their repetition, and an epilogue feels academic in every sense, when Cajori finally pulls away from the finished portrait, the sense of a job done to brimming satisfaction is acutely twofold." -- Village Voice Posted Jan 2, 2008	Chuck Close (2007)	100%
	"*Nichol's and Co.'s foreign policy caper puts up a decent fight, but Hoffman wins the War." -- Reeler* Posted Dec 21, 2007	Charlie Wilson's War (2007)	83%
	"Dolefully faithful to its source in the broad strokes, almost none of the book's cultural engagement sneaks through." -- Reeler Posted Dec 15, 2007	The Kite Runner (2007)	66%
	"*Once it gets past some serious tonal overkill, Juno's sweetness feels earned." -- Reeler* Posted Dec 5, 2007	Juno (2007)	93%
	"In drawing and quartering much of the novel's intent, [Screenwriter/Director] Weitz ends up with a film that feels not just unfinished but undone." -- Village Voice Posted Dec 4, 2007	The Golden Compass (2007)	42%
	"Linney and Hoffman have a tremendously rewarding, difficult (sibling) rapport." -- Reeler Posted Nov 28, 2007	The Savages (2007)	90%
	"A poised, surprisingly unsettling film about the half-life -- and twilight -- of a fiction writer." -- Reeler Posted Nov 21, 2007	Starting Out in the Evening (2007)	86%
	"Newell's adaptation infuses its source material's classic romantic tropes with all the poetry of a dog dish." -- Reeler Posted Nov 15, 2007	Love in the Time of Cholera (2007)	27%
	"The most moving story about love, longevity, infidelity and the Holocaust you may ever hear." -- Reeler Posted Nov 8, 2007	Steal a Pencil For Me (2007)	95%
	"The fragments from much of the day-in-the-life footage feel frustratingly devoid of a guiding context." -- Reeler Posted Oct 24, 2007	Lagerfeld Confidential (2007)	41%
	"A fascinating first-person account of drug kingpin and ruthless gangster Nicky Barnes, whose outrageous story of rise, rule, rage, and revenge requires no such stylistic filler." -- Village Voice Posted Oct 23, 2007	Mr. Untouchable (2007)	74%
	"The film doesn't fully click into the register Affleck seems to be going for -- that of a talky, tense, intricately woven urban opera of greed (both emotional and monetary), ambition and ethical relativism." -- Reeler Posted Oct 19, 2007	Gone Baby Gone (2007)	93%
	"*There is a smart, piercing film in here somewhere, but Rendition* never fully connects with its subject.*" -- Reeler* Posted Oct 19, 2007	Rendition (2007)	47%
	"As insistent on its emotional grandiosity as it is completely meaningless." -- Reeler Posted Oct 12, 2007	Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007)	34%
	"Director Jake Paltrow's feature debut has all the hallmarks of an earnest young man's feature debut, and while that is not necessarily a bad thing, I can only imagine that it fit Sundance like a fingerless glove when it had its premiere there." -- Village Voice Posted Oct 2, 2007	The Good Night (2007)	26%
	"A kill-'em-all action flick that attempts to elevate itself with clumsy, rock 'n roll politics, dropping actual names and articles of political currency like catchphrases." -- Reeler Posted Sep 28, 2007	The Kingdom (2007)	51%
	"Time was clearly taken here to do better than fine with material that had a sizeable no-brainer audience built right into the title." -- Reeler Posted Sep 21, 2007	The Jane Austen Book Club (2007)	64%
	"The doc is an excellent survey of the techniques employed by the Third Reich to not just demoralize but de-historicize the countries they invaded." -- Village Voice Posted Sep 11, 2007	The Rape of Europa (2007)	78%
	"Romance & Cigarettes is less a story than a state of mind, and less a musical than a meditation on how we instinctively set our lives to music, if not other musicals; unfortunately, it is just shy of convincing on both counts." -- Village Voice Posted Sep 4, 2007	Romance & Cigarettes (2007)	53%
	"This slim, sparsely drawn and gently affecting documentary fulfills the promise of Mr. Vig's singular visage." -- Reeler Posted Aug 29, 2007	The Monastery: Mr. Vig & the Nun (2006)	78%
	"Hawke telegraphs the banal, delusional, pretentious aspects of being 21 and in love too well, and without fully transforming them into something of substance." -- Reeler Posted Aug 25, 2007	The Hottest State (2006)	35%
	"Moore is such a smooth and comfortable presence onscreen that the at times embarrassingly naked framework of David Bromberg's screenplay seems almost believable." -- Reeler Posted Aug 25, 2007	Dedication (2007)	41%
	"*Seeming to cater to the ADD generation even as it tackles a subject of enormous scope, The 11th Hour* doesn't quite get the job done.*" -- Reeler* Posted Aug 18, 2007	The 11th Hour (2007)	66%
	"With an excess of excitable style, samba music, and heady, montage-driven metaphor that threatens to bury his film's key ideas, young-gun director Kohn So far, he's succeeded." -- Village Voice Posted Aug 14, 2007	Manda Bala (2007)	80%
	"Delpy wrangles her metaphors without showing too much strain, and the performances are too lovely and guileless to fault." -- Reeler Posted Aug 9, 2007	2 Days In Paris (2007)	87%
	"The reflective sequences veer between stylishly effective and drearily overstated." -- Village Voice Posted Aug 7, 2007	Crossing the Line (2007)	89%
	"The success (of each sketch) varies not just according to quality but how tickled you find yourself -- from moment to moment -- by this kind of high-wire comedy." -- Reeler Posted Aug 2, 2007	The Ten (2007)	39%
	"*Lay back and don't think of England -- or Austen -- is the best advice I can give for prospective viewers of Becoming Jane." -- Reeler* Posted Aug 2, 2007	Becoming Jane (2007)	57%
	"The actors rise to the challenge of Nocke's tricky, high-flown script, and Krohmer meets them there." -- Village Voice Posted Jul 31, 2007	Summer '04 (2006)	83%
	"*Where Mostly Martha* managed to fold its rather plotty conceit into an organic world of people and problems, in this stubbornly torpid remake, the conceit props up the characters and vice versa.*" -- Reeler* Posted Jul 26, 2007	No Reservations (2007)	39%
	"This essential documentary is a clear-eyed, coherent dissection of how crucial decisions were made in the first weeks and months following the American invasion of Iraq." -- Reeler Posted Jul 25, 2007	No End in Sight (2007)	94%
	"Fond, stinging, and finally instructive, the film assembles a comprehensive look back at the actions, arrest, and prosecution of a group of political malcontents (most of them young Catholics and some of them priests) in the summer of 1971." -- Village Voice Posted Jul 24, 2007	The Camden 28 (2007)	88%
	"*Sprawling its intriguing capital in all directions, Interview* falls short even in reaching that commonest of denominators: the cinematic puff piece.*" -- Reeler* Posted Jul 12, 2007	Interview (2007)	57%
	"It's too bad the story of these two men (and two fine performances has to compete with the built-in biopic conventions." -- Reeler Posted Jul 12, 2007	Talk to Me (2007)	81%
	"A mosaic of experience and endeavor reconsidered as human (in this case, very much female) experiment." -- Reeler Posted Jul 5, 2007	Flying: Confessions of a Free Woman (2007)	74%
	"[The ultimate] rescue scene is so desperate and painful, so joyous and true, that it exhausts the senses." -- Reeler Posted Jul 3, 2007	Rescue Dawn (2007)	90%
	"All emotion registers as melodrama, though the flushed and flustered parts do not cohere into a melodramatic (i.e. generic) whole." -- Reeler Posted Jun 29, 2007	Evening (2007)	27%
	"The film is as much rough-and-ready thriller as it is tragic memoir." -- Reeler Posted Jun 22, 2007	A Mighty Heart (2007)	77%
