2/5	" All isn�t fair in love and Waugh in an adaptation of his best-known work that�s often too tasteful for its good. Handsome and thoughtful, it might�ve had more appeal had first-choice leads Jude Law, Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connelly stayed. " -- Total Film Posted Oct 3, 2008	Brideshead Revisited (2008)	63%
1/5	" Full of dreadful turns and awful dialogue (�There�s been a breach in my most secure area!� mutters Al at one point), 88 Minutes is 107 too long." -- Total Film Posted Oct 3, 2008	88 Minutes (2008)	5%
2/5	" Election-year pertinence turns to mush in a winsome feel-gooder that wastes no time ramming its wholesome message down our throats. Oh, and did we mention that Kev gets to sing with his band Modern West? What a load of ballots� " -- Total Film Posted Sep 26, 2008	Swing Vote (2008)	38%
3/5	" Cut from the same cringe-inducing cloth as The Office and Napoleon Dynamite, this low-budget comedy about a clueless Tae Kwan Do tutor punches, chops and karate-kicks above its weight." -- Total Film Posted Sep 26, 2008	The Foot Fist Way (2008)	57%
3/5	" Banish all memories of the original and you�ll find this a slick throwback in the Doomsday mould. Tearing across the screen with all guns blazing, it�s disposable, enjoyable trash. " -- Total Film Posted Sep 26, 2008	Death Race (2008)	43%
3/5	" A funny showcase for rising star Danny McBride, if not quite the second comedy coming it's being marketed as. " -- Channel 4 Film Posted Sep 26, 2008	The Foot Fist Way (2008)	57%
2/5	" All in all, not quite as good as it gets." -- Total Film Posted Sep 19, 2008	Then She Found Me (2008)	52%
4/5	" A moving tale of working-class travails in modern Brazil that puts the carnage of City Of God and its ilk in sharp relief. " -- Channel 4 Film Posted Sep 19, 2008	Linha de passe ()	75%
2/5	" This harmless but charmless caper will have everybody except the most undemanding tot fidgeting." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Sep 10, 2008	Curious George (2006)	68%
3/5	" It�s not quite da bomb, but this nostalgic throwback to the recent past still has enough phat acting (especially from Sir Ben) and slammin� scenes to seem both fly and fresh. Worth catching? Damn skippy. " -- Total Film Posted Aug 29, 2008	The Wackness (2008)	67%
4/5	" After the major triumph of This Is England, Shane scales things back with an unassuming rites-of-passage drama featuring another top turn from Turgoose. Even in miniature, Meadows makes magic. " -- Total Film Posted Aug 22, 2008	Somers Town (2008)	89%
2/5	" If you really want to get smart, you'll avoid this tiresome time-waster like the proverbial plague. " -- Channel 4 Film Posted Aug 22, 2008	Get Smart (2008)	52%
3/5	" A gentle period piece that will look more comfortable on the small screen. " -- Channel 4 Film Posted Aug 15, 2008	Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day (2008)	77%
	" Barry Levinson's career slump continues apace with a wannabe black comedy that's neither dark nor funny." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Aug 11, 2008	Envy (2004)	6%
No Rating	" It's enough to make you want to take to the waves yourself." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Aug 5, 2008	Riding Giants (2004)	92%
2/5	" A classy cast and production design to die for are the only features of note in an underpowered tale of adultery and intrigue in �50s America." -- Total Film Posted Aug 1, 2008	Married Life (2008)	58%
5/5	" The visuals are eye-popping, the score (by Ennio Morricone) magnificent, the Civil War set-pieces both stunning and haunting. If you�re going to end a trilogy, this is the way to do it." -- Total Film Posted Aug 1, 2008	The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966)	98%
2/5	" A mannered comedy of manners that, in its eagerness to be all things to all people, ends up being nothing much of anything." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Jul 31, 2008	Married Life (2008)	58%
	" Jersey Girl marks a low point for the tubby New Jersey auteur. " -- Channel 4 Film Posted Jun 23, 2008	Jersey Girl (2004)	40%
4/5	" Surrender to its exotic oddity and guttural throat-singing and you�ll be entertained by a sweeping saga that�s like a Mongolian Braveheart. " -- Total Film Posted Jun 6, 2008	Mongol (2008)	88%
4/5	" A powerful, provocative and excellently acted thriller that could literally have been torn from today's headlines. " -- Channel 4 Film Posted Jun 6, 2008	Gone Baby Gone (2007)	94%
2/5	" There's no light at the end of the tunnel in this misguided romp whose solitary redeeming feature is its quality cast. " -- Channel 4 Film Posted Apr 25, 2008	Three and Out (2008)	20%
2/5	" With every twist of the second-hand plot telegraphed far in advance, you don't need to be clairvoyant to see where this is going. " -- BBC Posted Apr 25, 2008	The Eye (2008)	21%
3/5	" Ralph Fiennes is no Sexy Beast and writer/director Martin McDonagh is stronger on dialogue than story, but this is still a laugh-out-loud dark comedy, giving Colin Farrell his finest role in ages. " -- Total Film Posted Apr 18, 2008	In Bruges (2008)	81%
3/5	" "Are there any square cops out there?" says a supporting character in David Ayer's actioner. The answer, of course, is no - and this violent yarn is all the better for it. Next time out, though, he should probably assign himself a less familiar beat. " -- Total Film Posted Apr 18, 2008	Street Kings (2008)	36%
2/5	" In the end, though, there's only so much slack you can give a film that wears its cheapness and ineptitude like badges of honour." -- BBC Posted Apr 18, 2008	Botched (2007)	14%
3/5	" Given the true story that inspired it, 21 really should have been a sure-fire bet. As it is, it�s a split hand that only pays off thanks to Fishburne and Spacey. Still beats Lucky You, though. " -- Total Film Posted Apr 11, 2008	21 (2008)	35%
3/5	" Viewers who stick with it will be rewarded by an arresting tapestry that is considerably more than the sum of its parts." -- BBC Posted Mar 28, 2008	You, The Living (2007)	100%
2/5	" Little more than a Disney cash-cow entirely wasted on anyone old enough to smoke, drink or vote." -- BBC Posted Mar 14, 2008	Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert (2008)	71%
5/5	" Ridiculously entertaining." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Mar 10, 2008	The Jungle Book (1967)	88%
2/5	" A retro pastiche that, like The Good German before it, will be of limited interest to all but the most ardent film buff. " -- Channel 4 Film Posted Mar 7, 2008	Fade to Black (2006)	29%
4/5	" A movie that manages to be both brilliantly witty and delightfully subversive - not least for reportedly entrusting all its cinematography to a computer." -- BBC Posted Feb 28, 2008	The Boss of it All (2007)	73%
4/5	" For all the sleights of hand its director conjures up, this is an undeniably slight affair. But it�s still a sublimely entertaining one from a maverick confident enough in his abilities to make fun of his previous work and his agent provocateur persona. " -- Total Film Posted Feb 28, 2008	The Boss of it All (2007)	73%
3/5	" �It�s a jungle in there!� sighs Hanks as he counts the millions visiting the movie�s kill-view website. But for all its scaremongering, Untraceable is best viewed as an above-average thriller with a tech-savvy hook. " -- Total Film Posted Feb 28, 2008	Untraceable (2008)	16%
4/5	" It makes you want to climb on screen and give the big, eco-friendly lug a hug." -- Total Film Posted Feb 22, 2008	U2 3D (2008)	92%
3/5	" It takes a special talent to wring so much warm, humane comedy out of such a screwy premise. But the real triumph is how Gondry uses it to champion no-budget indie filmmaking, salute cinema�s unifying properties and thumb his nose at the Hollywood system." -- Total Film Posted Feb 22, 2008	Be Kind Rewind (2008)	67%
3/5	" Packs enough shocks to keep you gripped, not to mention a conclusion that refreshingly refutes the genre rulebook. " -- Total Film Posted Feb 22, 2008	Black Water (2007)	79%
	" The story rattles along at such a lick there's little time to ponder the plot holes -- no mean feat in a film of this length and with so many fine actors competing for our attention." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Feb 20, 2008	The Departed (2006)	92%
3/5	" For all its delicious moments, though, you can't help feeling there are a couple of ingredients missing from this frustratingly insubstantial confection." -- BBC Posted Feb 19, 2008	My Blueberry Nights (2008)	47%
2/5	" A thoroughly derivative, boringly ordinary affair in desperate need of a hockey-masked psycho or razor-gloved ghoul to liven things up." -- BBC Posted Feb 12, 2008	All the Boys Love Mandy Lane (2008)	58%
2/5	" A desperately unfunny farce that doesn't need an audience so much as an exorcist." -- BBC Posted Feb 5, 2008	Over Her Dead Body (2008)	14%
4/5	" Two fine performances, a subject close to all our hearts and a screenplay that manages to be both brilliantly witty and almost unbearably poignant add up to the best family comedy-drama since Little Miss Sunshine. " -- Total Film Posted Jan 24, 2008	The Savages (2007)	90%
4/5	" Where Lions For Lambs stumbled, Haggis� latest succeeds in putting dramatic form to the disquiet over US policy. Tommy Lee Jones� performance, meanwhile, is impressive enough to make him a decent bet in this year�s Oscar race. " -- Total Film Posted Jan 24, 2008	In the Valley of Elah (2007)	72%
4/5	" Powerful, downbeat drama with an anti-war message." -- BBC Posted Jan 24, 2008	In the Valley of Elah (2007)	72%
2/5	" An all-star cast and Pegg's larger-than-life turn can't stop this offbeat yarn being a bit of a snooze. " -- Channel 4 Film Posted Jan 18, 2008	The Good Night (2007)	26%
3/5	" Saucy sex scenes apart, however, it�s hard to get drawn into a slow-moving, drawn-out story that takes two-and-a-half po-faced hours to reach its jarringly abrupt and confusing conclusion." -- thelondonpaper Posted Jan 4, 2008	Lust, Caution (2007)	70%
3/5	" Isolated moments of high drama and some startlingly intimate sex scenes sadly fail to galvanise a turgid and overlong whole. " -- Channel 4 Film Posted Jan 4, 2008	Lust, Caution (2007)	70%
4/5	" A compelling documentary that leaves you wondering if there is nothing sacred in this stinking world." -- BBC Posted Dec 18, 2007	My Kid Could Paint That (2007)	93%
2.5/5	" All those years making wine have clearly impacted on Coppola's storytelling abilities. Let's hope he recovers them before his next directorial outing." -- Channel 4 Film Posted Dec 14, 2007	Youth Without Youth (2007)	29%
2/5	" Given the implausible contrivances that link these disparate protagonists, though, it�s hard to care much about any of them in a chilly drama whose sleek aesthetic masks a hollow soul. " -- Total Film Posted Dec 13, 2007	Chromophobia (2005)	31%
