2/4	" ... The movie is mostly a snoozer with Bella and Edward spending a lot of time merely exchanging glances or staring longingly at each other." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Nov 21, 2008	Twilight (2008)	44%
2.5/4	" "Quantum of Solace" will satisfy most Bond fans. But (it) is more of a set-up for what is to come and more than anything it whets your appetite for future missions." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Nov 16, 2008	Quantum of Solace (2008)	65%

3.5/4	" The Duchess is an intelligent and compelling period drama that offers a critical examination of the lot of women and the abuses of men in a time when such behavior was standard and acceptable." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Oct 8, 2008	The Duchess (2008)	61%
2/4	" This is one of those films in which no characters have names, a device used to emphasize the point that those locked up could be you or me." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Oct 8, 2008	Blindness (2008)	41%
2/4	" Like the fires creeping toward the Lakeview Terrace neighborhood, the film soon gets out of control and flies off the deep end." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Oct 8, 2008	Lakeview Terrace (2008)	44%

3.5/4	" It spoofs the magic of movies, the narcissism, insecurities and ego-driven minds of actors, the cliches of action films and the bottom-line mentality of studio bosses." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Aug 13, 2008	Tropic Thunder (2008)	83%
3.5/4	" Even as you watch, though, you begin to wonder how much is real life and how much of what you see was "staged" because the teens knew a camera was watching." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Aug 10, 2008	American Teen (2008)	71%

2/4	" "Hancock" is not a bad movie, just an underachieving one. It lacks a "wow" factor. It is bland and routine and flies off in too many directions." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Jul 2, 2008	Hancock (2008)	39%

3/4	" "The Incredible Hulk" emphasizes action and special effects. ... But it is what fans expect and hoped for and it will not disappoint." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Jun 12, 2008	The Incredible Hulk (2008)	67%
4/4	" From start to finish, the chapters roll by offering fans of the genre chases, explosions, gun battles, fistfights and well-done cliffhangers." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Jun 9, 2008	Daredevils of the West (1943)	n/a
0/4	" The movie paints crude and insulting portraits of Israelis and Palestinians, going in for the basest stereotypes that would only bring a smile to the face of a Klansman." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Jun 5, 2008	You Don't Mess With The Zohan (2008)	35%
2.5/4	" Much of it is exciting; the action sequences, the fights, the stunts are rousing, but they also seem familiar and a bit routine." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted May 21, 2008	Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)	76%

3/4	" What sets the movie apart ... is that ... it is not bogged down with the "with great power comes great responsibility" mantra that weighs upon other costumed crusaders." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted May 1, 2008	Iron Man (2008)	93%
3/4	" There isn't really much plot to Harold and Kumar, just a lot of scatological humor, sex and body parts as well as body function jokes." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Apr 24, 2008	Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008)	54%
1.5/4	" "88 Minutes" is one of those thrillers in which characters seem to run all over the place and talk a lot on cell phones. Yet nothing really seems to get accomplished." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Apr 18, 2008	88 Minutes (2008)	5%
1.5/4	" "Leatherheads" lacks flair and pizzazz. Like a highly touted No. 1 draft pick who flops, it is all potential without substance." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Apr 3, 2008	Leatherheads (2008)	52%
3/4	" The movie's ending will not satisfy everyone, but it does avoid typical Hollywood conventions. Whether it is the correct finale is something you will have to search your own heart to answer." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Apr 1, 2008	Stop-Loss (2008)	65%
2/4	" It's a gamble whether or not "21" will provide enough excitement to make you shout, "Winner, winner, chicken dinner."" -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Apr 1, 2008	21 (2008)	35%
2/4	" "Drillbit Taylor" ... raises the question about why in today's teen-age movies must every high school bully appear to have taken lessons at the Hannibal Lector School of Psychopathic Adolescents." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Mar 24, 2008	Drillbit Taylor (2008)	26%
0/4	" What is most extraordinary about Semi-Pro is that someone actually provided money to produce it. The funding probably came from someone who did not - or could not - read the script." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Feb 28, 2008	Semi-Pro (2008)	21%
1.5/4	" Basically, Vantage Point is a don't-ask-and-we-won't-tell movie. We are just supposed to sit back and ride along without questioning where we are being driven." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Feb 27, 2008	Vantage Point (2008)	36%
1/4	" The only people who will get any enjoyment out of this feature are those who love to ogle Matthew McConaughey shirtless ..." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Feb 7, 2008	Fool's Gold (2008)	10%
1.5/4	" Cassandra's Dream lacks energy and spark. Monotonous and simplistic, it is definitely not worthy of Woody Allen." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Jan 30, 2008	Cassandra's Dream (2008)	49%
1.5/4	" Untraceable is a movie whose potential was tossed aside for the conventional trappings of the serial-killer genre." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Jan 30, 2008	Untraceable (2008)	15%
1/4	" 27 Dresses is cinema for the simple-minded. Everything is spelled out for the audience in capital block letters." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Jan 18, 2008	27 Dresses (2008)	40%
3.5/4	" What sets the film apart, really, is that the monster is just a backdrop. The main focus centers on how a small group of people cope and react under such an extreme crisis." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Jan 17, 2008	Cloverfield (2008)	77%
3.5/4	" The weight of current events in Iraq and Afghanistan push at the back of your mind as you watch the film." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Dec 20, 2007	Charlie Wilson's War (2007)	82%
3.5/4	" Delightfully gruesome, it is laced with morbid humor, and yet a sense of tragedy and loss weighs heavily upon it. " -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Dec 20, 2007	Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007)	86%
2/4	" The movie ... seems to mutate into a clone of 28 Days Later since the virus not only has altered those infected ... but have transformed many of them into CGI figures ..." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Dec 13, 2007	I Am Legend (2007)	69%
3.5/4	" The movie is not so much a biography as a fragmented tour through Dylan�s various personas and psyches." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Dec 11, 2007	I'm Not There (2007)	78%
2.5/4	" Golden Compass lacks any real fantastic flair. It is a decent enough feature, but is short of that spell-binding quality that will allow audiences to embrace it." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Dec 9, 2007	The Golden Compass (2007)	42%
3.5/4	" Joel and Ethan Coen, working from a novel by Cormac McCarthy, have made one of the darkest and best movies of the year." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Nov 21, 2007	No Country for Old Men (2007)	94%
2.5/4	" The Mist is a disappointment, not so much for what is on the screen, but for what it could have been." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Nov 21, 2007	Stephen King's The Mist (2007)	72%
2.5/4	" Children will find the feature enchanting, while adults may not be so easily impressed." -- Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) Posted Nov 16, 2007	Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium (2007)	36%
