	"[S]cience fiction drama with the emphasis on the drama... [T]here are no monsters [here] except the all-too-human kind, and no demons except the all-too-familiar ones that plague us all." -- Flick Filosopher Posted Jul 25, 2008	The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008)	33%
	"[I]t's rather like its protagonist, Charles Ryder: really quite handsome to look at but so damn tedious and somber that you want to smack some sense into him." -- Flick Filosopher Posted Jul 24, 2008	Brideshead Revisited (2008)	71%
	"[I]ntimate and incisive... a peek into the horrors of adolescence that most of us have tried to forget, and shouldn't..." -- Flick Filosopher Posted Jul 22, 2008	American Teen (2008)	67%
	"[N]one of the nonsensicalness would matter if the movie would let me get caught up in it, but that hardly happened, much as I wished it would..." -- Flick Filosopher Posted Jul 18, 2008	Mamma Mia! (2008)	53%

	"*I walked out of Meet Dave... I invested about 50 minutes in the film, which was more than it deserved, and then I finally gave up and left." -- Flick Filosopher* Posted Jul 14, 2008	Meet Dave (2008)	21%
	"[H]as no pretensions to being anything other than a theme park ride..." -- Flick Filosopher Posted Jul 10, 2008	Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008)	60%
	"I want to say that II is pure dumb popcorn fun while you're watching it and instantly forgettable the moment the credits start to roll, but actually, I was forgetting it while I was still in the process of watching it." -- Flick Filosopher Posted Jul 10, 2008	Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)	87%

	"[S]o few movies make me laugh out loud, and I did do that more than once with this one, and that's reason for a minor celebration..." -- Flick Filosopher Posted Jun 23, 2008	Get Smart (2008)	53%
	"[I]sn't merely endlessly crude: it's also dishonest and contemptuous of itself..." -- Flick Filosopher Posted Jun 20, 2008	The Love Guru (2008)	15%

	"Maybe Shyamalan didn't mean for The Happening to be exciting and dramatic: perhaps the writer-director intended the film to be an exercise in sucking all the life and emotion out of fictional characters." -- Flick Filosopher Posted Jun 16, 2008	The Happening (2008)	19%

	"[T]he real charms of [t]his second outing... flow much as they did in the first one: by not lingering on the spectacle but on the sweetness of... the child characters and the enchanting talking animals..." -- Flick Filosopher Posted May 15, 2008	The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008)	66%
	"[H]its every single damn note in precisely the wrong way... strains for screwball and misses entirely..." -- Flick Filosopher Posted May 10, 2008	A Previous Engagement (2008)	35%

	"[I]t was probably inevitable that such an audacious attempt would fail to succeed entirely. Which isn't to say that this bold and fearless film isn't worth a look." -- Flick Filosopher Posted May 7, 2008	Constantine's Sword (2008)	83%

	"The longer you trust... Mamet... the more you'll be crushed when the film, which is always teetering on the edge of preposterousness, finally tumbles over that edge." -- Flick Filosopher Posted May 2, 2008	Redbelt (2008)	71%
	"Bleibtreu and Herzsprung embody their characters with such vicious monstrousity that it's hard to forget that they're merely actors." -- Flick Filosopher Posted May 2, 2008	Four Minutes (2007)	76%
	"What had been a charming if undaring story about two friends who might be able to fall in love stops trusting itself -- and stops trusting the audience to stick with it without being dragged along by the nostrils." -- Flick Filosopher Posted May 2, 2008	Made of Honor (2008)	12%
	"[M]ight well be the perfect comic book movie... It's just pertinent enough to feel like it's set in something like the real world and just tongue-in-cheek enough not to get too heavy about it, but it's got enough self-respect to be sincere." -- Flick Filosopher Posted Apr 30, 2008	Iron Man (2008)	93%
