	"Give Young credit for getting beyond the standard tour-bus and backstage environments, but the broad scope ultimately gives short shrift to both the veterans and the legendary discord among the bandmates." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Jul 23, 2008	CSNY D�j� Vu (2008)	86%
	"*An immense, Otter Pop colored nostalgic thing* that expends so much energy replicating every last widget and geegaw from its source that it forgets to be, you know, fun.*" -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA)* Posted May 8, 2008	Speed Racer (2008)	36%
	"That faint thumping noise you hear is Russ Meyer doing donuts in his grave." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Apr 25, 2008	Zombie Strippers (2008)	39%
	"[Drowns]its predecessors' virtues in what feels like an endless Mad Lib of Wired magazine buzzwords ... If America's defining doomcryer is right that today's audiences need this much spoon-feeding, then his latest and least film is scarier than it seems. " -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Feb 13, 2008	George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead (2008)	60%
	"Stays on the verge of being a rousing dumbass flick at all times -- you've never seen so many mid-air organs -- yet its combination of outrageous bodily trauma and beagle-eyed moments of reflection never quite makes it go over the top." -- Portland Mercury Posted Jan 24, 2008	Rambo (2008)	35%
	"A magnum dopus so utterly inept that it somehow comes off as perversely admirable. The other two people at Friday's matinee seemed to enjoy it, too." -- Portland Mercury Posted Jan 14, 2008	In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale (2008)	5%
	"It's a Wonderful Life is no longer the most depressing Christmas movie ever made." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Dec 26, 2007	Aliens Vs. Predator: Requiem (2007)	14%
	"Another well-meaning, dopily prosaic movie of the sort that often gets a mercy nomination thrown its way ... Does a severe disservice to a truly great history. " -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Dec 12, 2007	Color of Freedom (2007)	44%
	"Everyone involved seems to be coasting ... Scott's gift for composition and the occasional flash of wickedness from Washington keeps this from being a bad film, precisely, just a disappointing one." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Oct 31, 2007	American Gangster (2007)	79%
	"Would most likely have made for a decent late-night Cinemax staple, but its stabs at higher significance only bring on the giggles." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Oct 21, 2007	Waist Deep (2006)	27%
	"Devotees of the source material will no doubt grouse at the liberties taken, but [Ian] McShane does what he can to keep the torches and pitchforks at bay." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Oct 5, 2007	The Seeker (2007)	13%
	"A Big, Important movie that feels much more successful when it downshifts into a simple genre picture -- in this case, a rock 'em, sock 'em action flick. Given the relevance of its subject matter, this is a bit of a problem." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Sep 26, 2007	The Kingdom (2007)	51%
	"Has a few moments of Hunter Thompsonish comic inspiration, but its vibe feels more untethered by the minute." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Sep 13, 2007	The Hunting Party (2007)	51%
	"[Jones] can't single-handedly save this frustrating film from its overly earnest impulses, but when he's onscreen, at least the hokum burns cleaner." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Sep 13, 2007	In the Valley of Elah (2007)	72%
	"You know that certain kind of foreign film? The one that just sort of sits there amiably and gets called stuff like "heartwarming" and "delightful" on the poster? ... My Best Friend fits snugly in the category above." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Jul 25, 2007	My Best Friend (2007)	75%
	"Boasts a premise that might make for an amusing Far Side panel -- '50s suburbia with zombie servants -- and... doesn't do much else with it, actually." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Jul 4, 2007	Fido (2007)	68%
	"The majority of the signs point to a director on the decline. Or not, maybe. It's complicated." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted May 16, 2007	Fay Grim (2007)	44%
	"A blockbuster phenomenon that wouldn't exist without the efforts of other films, and somehow smugly pats itself on the back for it." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted May 16, 2007	Shrek the Third (2007)	42%
	"For a movie concerned with such heady topics as fate, destiny, and mounting paranoia, it seems curiously reluctant to stick with the mystical." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Apr 5, 2007	First Snow (2007)	56%
	"A film that expends all of its energy canceling itself out ... The flopsweat could be measured in gallons." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Mar 14, 2007	I Think I Love My Wife (2007)	19%
	"After a while, all of the excess, however glorious, just gets, well, excessive ... By the end, I didn't know which I wanted more: a cigarette, or, like, a whole bottle of aspirin." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Mar 8, 2007	300 (2007)	60%
	"A sodden, listless mess that wouldn't thrill even the most ardent Hot Topic enthusiast." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Feb 21, 2007	Ghost Rider (2007)	28%
	"A load of generic mush perhaps best served as a piece of bitchin' '70s van art." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Dec 13, 2006	Eragon (2006)	16%
	"Doesn't deviate much from the downward-spiral norm, but benefits hugely from an atypically loose performance by Heath Ledger." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Dec 7, 2006	Candy (2006)	50%
	"Skids mightily in the transition from three to two dimensions." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Dec 7, 2006	The Architect (2006)	11%
	"Horrendous and terrible and borderline unwatchable -- the most depressing film by a major filmmaker in recent memory." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Nov 1, 2006	Tideland (2006)	28%
	"When judged against the real-life outlandishness piling up on a near-daily basis, this what-if scenario can't really measure up." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Oct 29, 2006	Death of a President (2006)	36%
	"As both war epic and historical character piece, it feels weirdly insubstantial." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Oct 18, 2006	Flags of Our Fathers (2006)	73%
	"However honorable the intent, Bush's epic journey carries all the raw, visceral excitement of watching someone else's holiday slides." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Oct 12, 2006	Vajra Sky Over Tibet (2006)	55%
	"Feels less like an honest memoir and more like a jacked-up memory of cool movies past. Now that [Montiel's] written what he knows, let's go ahead and see what he's got." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Oct 12, 2006	A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints (2006)	75%
	"[Injects] an unusual ferocity into the moments of random bloodshed, but fails to do much with the long, arid stretches between beheadings and eyeball pluckings." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Sep 20, 2006	Feast (2006)	55%
	"Has a few minor deficiencies in certain areas. Laughs, for one thing." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Aug 30, 2006	Trust the Man (2006)	27%
	"Provocative subject matter and a rather magnificent performance by Charlotte Rampling aside, the occasional flickering hint of deeper meaning isn't enough to sustain interest." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Aug 24, 2006	Heading South (2006)	68%
	"Captures almost none of the original's ambience, piling on the rote, head-banging shocks in lieu of clammy ambiguity." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Aug 11, 2006	Pulse (2006)	12%
	"Smith's hyperliterate lead-assed wiseacres deserve their place in indie-movie history, no doubt, but when even the fart jokes fail to pop, it may be time to draw the curtain." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Jul 19, 2006	Clerks II (2006)	63%
	"Reverent to the point of stasis." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Jun 28, 2006	Superman Returns (2006)	77%
	"[The] queasy nods toward realism ... ultimately scuttle any lingering hopes of escapism. The genre just wasn't made for these times. " -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted May 10, 2006	Poseidon (2006)	33%
	"Hoax or no, the narrative can't escape death by a thousand newfangled iMac cuts." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Mar 16, 2006	Unknown White Male (2005)	73%
	"For all the overstuffed corsets and garters snapping to and fro, it's about as bawdy as a C-Span appropriations committee meeting." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Mar 9, 2006	The Libertine (2005)	32%
	"Utterly trumps its source material on a technical level ... but that coveted nightmare vibe remains elusive." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Mar 9, 2006	The Hills Have Eyes (2006)	50%
	"Whatever the initial motivation, Def's performance runs dangerously close to nudging our sympathies toward the bad guys." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Mar 2, 2006	16 Blocks (2006)	56%
	"All the mechanisms are in place, but the juice is sorely lacking." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Feb 16, 2006	Freedomland (2005)	23%
	"For all the blarney about hacking and up-to-the-minute tech geekery, it's really just the same old story about protecting the homestead from rustlers in black hats." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Feb 10, 2006	Firewall (2006)	19%
	"Comes off as a slight improvement over the original, if only because the stake lodged up its hindquarters seems to measure a few millimeters smaller." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Jan 20, 2006	Underworld: Evolution (2006)	14%
	"I found myself genuinely admiring the skill both behind and before the camera, while simultaneously searching for a blowtorch so I could destroy the negative." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Dec 22, 2005	Wolf Creek (2005)	53%
	"In its sheer desire to entertain, the film takes whimsy to levels normally outlawed by the Geneva Convention. " -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Dec 22, 2005	Casanova (2005)	42%
	"Hits every conceivable chord, no matter how much of a stretch." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Dec 15, 2005	The Family Stone (2005)	53%
	"Strictly by the numbers, with pain-free pratfalls mixing freely with moments of diabetic-coma inducing sap. (Are there montages set to Top-40 hits? You bet.)" -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Nov 25, 2005	Yours, Mine, & Ours (2005)	5%
	"Puzzlingly hollow .... Although its portrayal of war as tedious hell scores points for novelty, the lack of a discernable point of view considerably limits the film's impact." -- The Stranger (Seattle, WA) Posted Nov 3, 2005	Jarhead (2005)	60%
