1.5/4	"The truth is, indeed, still out there. And when Carter finds it, may he heed its wisdom: Let go." -- Boston Globe Posted Jul 25, 2008	The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008)	33%
3/4	"This Japanese horror movie is weirder than anything life could offer." -- Boston Globe Posted Jul 18, 2008	Hair Extensions (2008)	n/a
3.5/4	"As my dignity tried to flee the premises, my heart wouldn't let me go." -- Boston Globe Posted Jul 18, 2008	Mamma Mia! (2008)	53%
2.5/4	"The idea's not terrible, and no filmmaker has bothered with Singer for years, but this movie chooses to reduce the author's soulfulness to mirrored tales of lonely, randy seniors, all of whom Tausig plays. In one sense, it's a disservice." -- Boston Globe Posted Jul 11, 2008	Love Comes Lately (2008)	59%
	"Murphy appears to be on the verge of cracking himself up. This is good news. At least someone found him funny." -- Boston Globe Posted Jul 11, 2008	Meet Dave (2008)	21%
2.5/4	"The documentary doubles as a jukebox of banality." -- Boston Globe Posted Jul 3, 2008	Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson (2008)	86%
	"What does one say about a movie that wants laughs from a shot of one inmate's head up the derriere of another?" -- Boston Globe Posted Jul 1, 2008	Hancock (2008)	38%
4/4	"In a single two-hour film, Akin strikes the notes of emotional distress, geographical dissonance, generational discord, and nearly divine convergence that Kieslowski orchestrated over nearly six hours." -- Boston Globe Posted Jun 27, 2008	The Edge of Heaven (2008)	90%
3/4	"Bodrov and Arif Aliyev wrote the film, which was one of this year's foreign-language Oscar nominees, and their account is framed as a drama of inflamed loins and intense loyalty." -- Boston Globe Posted Jun 20, 2008	Mongol (2008)	88%
3.5/4	"Alexandra is a pleasure to watch, but it's also one of those lovely, unclassifiable movies that flourishes better with repeated or prolonged exposures." -- Boston Globe Posted Jun 20, 2008	Alexandra (2008)	94%
1/4	"Things are so bad here that the few good ideas seem brilliant." -- Boston Globe Posted Jun 20, 2008	The Love Guru (2008)	15%
2.5/4	"In their determination to make a reliable action movie, they forgot to make an interesting one." -- Boston Globe Posted Jun 13, 2008	The Incredible Hulk (2008)	67%
3/4	"Sputnik Mania plays, discreetly, like a negative love story between superpowers. Sure they moved on to other enemies, but they still haven't gotten over each other." -- Boston Globe Posted Jun 13, 2008	Sputnik Mania (2008)	90%
3/4	"Mother of Tears transcends camp without forsaking it. Argento pitches the proceedings toward the ridiculous (his pacing is as perfect as some of the witches' breasts are fake) but only in the name of reaching a new cheesy sublime." -- Boston Globe Posted Jun 6, 2008	Mother of Tears (2008)	50%
3/4	"If You Don't Mess With the Zohan isn't the bravest movie ever made about current Arab-Israeli relations, it's at least the bravest movie ever made about current Arab-Israeli relations featuring a former Mossad agent who shags Lainie Kazan." -- Boston Globe Posted Jun 6, 2008	You Don't Mess with the Zohan (2008)	34%
3.5/4	"It's exciting watching Bahrani explore the possibilities of neo-realism to dramatize penury and disenfranchisement among the service-class in this country." -- Boston Globe Posted May 30, 2008	Chop Shop (2007)	95%
.5/4	"[Director] Bertino has the pretensions of an artist and the indelicacy of a hack. He tries to get under our skin with a pile driver." -- Boston Globe Posted May 30, 2008	The Strangers (2008)	41%
2.5/4	"The movie is just like a half-season of the series -- a funny, sappy, clumsy, crude, rambunctious, argumentative, gleefully vulgar attempt to balance the fantasy of romance with the reality that the fantasy is impossible." -- Boston Globe Posted May 29, 2008	Sex and the City: The Movie (2008)	51%
3/4	"The movie feels exhaustive in its loaded 90-something minutes, showing and telling us much while leaving the meaning of the tangles and twists in this family open to interpretation. For once, the tip of the iceberg is enough." -- Boston Globe Posted May 23, 2008	Surfwise (2008)	100%
2/4	"It's like a Lana Turner vehicle that's too meek to be Last Tango in Chinatown." -- Boston Globe Posted May 23, 2008	Never Forever (2008)	78%
2.5/4	"What ensues between them, both psychologically and sexually, is one of the strangest, most fascinating dysfunctional relationships I've seen in a movie. The acting is outstanding." -- Boston Globe Posted May 22, 2008	XXY (2008)	72%
3/4	"You'll laugh. You'll swoon." -- Boston Globe Posted May 22, 2008	Love Songs (2008)	67%
2.5/4	"Directed and co-written by Michel Hazanavicius and starring the French comedian Jean Dujardin as OSS 117, the movie is a sketch stretched to tedious feature length." -- Boston Globe Posted May 16, 2008	OSS 117: Cairo - Nest of Spies (2008)	78%
2.5/4	"Pinon and Dana are so striking together." -- Boston Globe Posted May 16, 2008	Roman de Gare (2008)	88%
3/4	"In its slightly comical, somewhat mordant, and completely ambient way, Mister Lonely wonders about the perils of idol worship, the way people can hand their entire selves over to a religion, be it Catholicism or celebrity." -- Boston Globe Posted May 9, 2008	Mister Lonely (2008)	43%
2.5/4	"Feels less like a redemptive survivor's story and more like a commercial for some terrific Mediterranean resort." -- Boston Globe Posted May 9, 2008	Fugitive Pieces (2008)	69%
1/4	"When it was over I felt vaguely embarrassed. I wasn't just leaving a movie theater. I was taking a walk of shame." -- Boston Globe Posted May 9, 2008	What Happens in Vegas (2008)	27%
2.5/4	"What ought to be a bittersweet movie about a woman's momentary unraveling feels like a workout class: Cardio melodrama." -- Boston Globe Posted May 2, 2008	Then She Found Me (2008)	54%
2.5/4	"*Downey could have taken a tragic tack. But he has fun just figuring out how to make the armor suit work. His sarcasm and almost drunken Tony Curtis body language transform the scenes of Iron Man." -- Boston Globe* Posted May 2, 2008	Iron Man (2008)	93%
3/4	"In a sense, the movie is about Accio's appreciation of the practical limits of ideology and the practical uses of rebellion, and it's a poignant realization." -- Boston Globe Posted Apr 25, 2008	My Brother is an Only Child (2006)	85%
	"Deal could use a touch of the slickness that's making the blackjack drama 21 such a greasy hit." -- Boston Globe Posted Apr 25, 2008	Deal (2008)	0%
	"*Calling your terrible crime thriller Deception* is like naming your bad cooking movie Food -- an advertisement for laziness.*" -- Boston Globe* Posted Apr 25, 2008	Deception (2008)	11%
3/4	"The movie was written and directed by a man, Michael McCullers. But it cuts out the obligatory middleman and lets two women make us laugh, often very hard." -- Boston Globe Posted Apr 25, 2008	Baby Mama (2008)	61%
3.5/4	"This is a film of our times -- paranoid, heartbroken, disillusioned -- and the rare recent American movie whose characters react the way actual people might." -- Boston Globe Posted Apr 18, 2008	The Visitor (2008)	92%
	"*It barely matters that Zombie Strippers* is a tediously overextended satire. It's called Zombie Strippers.*" -- Boston Globe* Posted Apr 18, 2008	Zombie Strippers (2008)	39%
	"Spurlock and his team of collaborators never find the movie amid all their material. If he's a questionable journalist and a poor detective, he's an even more woeful filmmaker." -- Boston Globe Posted Apr 18, 2008	Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden? (2008)	35%
	"The illogical script by Gary Scott Thompson is desperate to keep us guessing but clueless as to how. Every tin of red herring in the store gets ripped open." -- Boston Globe Posted Apr 18, 2008	88 Minutes (2008)	6%
0.5/4	"There's no suspense or perversity. You don't care who lives or who dies -- just please make it soon." -- Boston Globe Posted Apr 14, 2008	Prom Night (2008)	8%
3.5/4	"Editor Bernadine Colish weaves together all that C-SPAN footage into a disturbing procedural indictment." -- Boston Globe Posted Apr 11, 2008	Body of War (2008)	71%
2.5/4	"[Director] Ayer appears to like the thrill of violence more than its philosophical underpinnings, so the movie is caught between the silly and the profound." -- Boston Globe Posted Apr 11, 2008	Street Kings (2008)	36%
2/4	"*None of the characters' or the filmmakers' knowledge illuminates, deepens, or complicates this movie in a way that keeps you from thinking longingly of Curtis Hanson's Wonder Boys." -- Boston Globe* Posted Apr 11, 2008	Smart People (2008)	49%
3/4	"A surprisingly effective little horror nightmare." -- Boston Globe Posted Apr 7, 2008	The Ruins (2008)	47%
3/4	"*The battles in Benson Lee's documentary Planet B-Boy* are exceptional. The movie's not bad, either.*" -- Boston Globe* Posted Apr 4, 2008	Planet B-Boy (2008)	91%
2.5/4	"This is an unmade bed of a movie -- and ambiguous to a fault." -- Boston Globe Posted Apr 4, 2008	Leatherheads (2008)	53%
2.5/4	"Couldn't the film have told the story of a single season or explored what it means for a team of genius scientists and math whizzes not to crack the code of their failure? We get glimpses and glosses but never a story." -- Boston Globe Posted Mar 28, 2008	Quantum Hoops (2007)	79%
2.5/4	"Shelter is a gay movie like other American gay movies. Boy meets boy. Boy comes out. Boys fight opposition. Opposition caves. If there's life beyond the closet, too few movies know it exists." -- Boston Globe Posted Mar 28, 2008	Shelter (2008)	50%
1/4	"Run Fat Boy Run might as well have been written by a rushed piece of software. The program calls for a surprise engagement, a street fight complete with crotch punches, an apartment eviction, and a runaway child -- all in about five minutes." -- Boston Globe Posted Mar 28, 2008	Run, Fat Boy, Run (2008)	48%
3/4	"CJ7 is precisely the 80-something minutes of delirium and cheesy special-effects you'd expect from the man responsible for the chaos of Shaolin Soccer and the lunacy of Kung Fu Hustle." -- Boston Globe Posted Mar 21, 2008	CJ7 (2008)	45%
2/4	"Enough with these meek, banal exercises, David Gordon Green. Hit me with the sledgehammer in your heart." -- Boston Globe Posted Mar 21, 2008	Snow Angels (2008)	67%
