2/5	" Peter Segal�s film is only occasionally funny." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Aug 22, 2008	Get Smart (2008)	52%
1/5	" The only thing in Steve Carr�s fatuous movie that earns a few giggles is John C McGinley�s silliness as a new-age builder." -- Times [UK] Posted Jun 9, 2007	Are We Done Yet? (2007)	8%
2/5	" Never manages to create a gripping strand to hold our attention." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Feb 26, 2007	The Good Shepherd (2006)	56%
4/5	" Eastwood has managed to humanise these enemy soldiers in a way no Hollywood war film has done before." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Feb 26, 2007	Letters From Iwo Jima (2006)	91%
1/5	" Spookily, it must have been in about the 23rd minute that my spirits began to sink and I thought: �There�d better be an awfully clever pay-off at the end of this.� Well, there isn�t." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Feb 26, 2007	The Number 23 (2007)	8%
1/5	" Only toward the end of the film do the hostilities reach a level of recklessness with any potential to be funny. If things had started at that pitch and been ramped up from there, Phillips might have had a movie worth making." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Feb 26, 2007	School for Scoundrels (2006)	25%
2/5	" If only Cassel had saved his performance for a collaboration with the League of Gentlemen." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Feb 26, 2007	Sheitan (2006)	53%
2/5	" Without any change to its essential cosiness, it could surely have been more surprising in its emotional scenes and funnier in its comic ones." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Feb 26, 2007	Avenue Montaigne (2007)	74%
3/5	" while the film may be impaired as an oral treatise, Sissako�s use of the trial is still vindicated. It provides rich symbolism in what is, on the whole, a stimulating work." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Feb 26, 2007	Bamako (2006)	84%
1/5	" As well as providing lifestyle porn, the many scenes set in stylish kitchens mean there is usually a cake on hand for somebody to be splattered with. That�s the level of the bland attempts at comedy." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Feb 19, 2007	Because I Said So (2007)	5%
3/5	" The characters are given life by the script and actors, while the mountainous terrain (provided by Crimea) adds novelty to the combat scenes." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Feb 19, 2007	The 9th Company (2005)	79%
3/5	" Another comic love story that takes us inside a character�s psyche, but Kaufman�s rock-solid jokes are replaced by whimsy." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Feb 19, 2007	The Science of Sleep (2006)	70%
5/5	" In [Bunuel's] vigorous storytelling, he not only finds forceful images in the drama�s reality, but adds a dream sequence � a miniature masterpiece that, by itself, is reason enough to see the film." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Feb 19, 2007	Los Olvidados (1950)	93%
2/5	" The nature of the couple�s tormentors makes the action scarier than it would have been with, say, a supernatural monster, but it also represents a cheap and nasty move by Moreau and Palud." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Jan 28, 2007	Them (2007)	63%
2/5	" Not every turn in the story is well judged, but what�s more damaging is that the film�s general aura is not sufficiently powerful." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Jan 28, 2007	Lives of the Saints (2006)	42%
2/5	" I�ve sat through lots of navel-gazing movies that would have been vastly improved by the addition of some 16th-century conquistador action; Aronofsky�s film is still a bore, Its ideas and images too airy-fairy to have emotional force." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Jan 28, 2007	The Fountain (2006)	51%
4/5	" A surprising denouement provides poignancy, repaying the goodwill the film inspires through its mellow combinations of music and imagery." -- Sunday Times (UK) Posted Jan 28, 2007	Old Joy (2006)	85%
