4/4	"Nolan hasn't simply made a popcorn movie for brainiacs. He's an increasingly self-assured director of action sequences." Posted Jul 16, 2008	The Dark Knight (2008)	95%
4/4	"*Continuing a string of successes that pit Pixar films against only other Pixar films in terms of quality animation, WALL�E* makes the count nine masterpieces in a row.*" Posted Jun 26, 2008*	WALL-E (2008)	96%
4/4	"*The nicest surprise about Kung Fu Panda* is that it's so much better than the goofy-cutesy title would lead you to expect.*" Posted Jun 6, 2008*	Kung Fu Panda (2008)	88%
4/4	"*Martin Scorsese meets the Rolling Stones in Shine a Light.* The synergy is so brilliant, it's nearly blinding.*" Posted Apr 3, 2008*	Shine a Light (2008)	86%
4/4	"A raw, touching, unfiltered look at the teenage angst that Hollywood usually turns into brain-dead comedy." Posted Feb 8, 2008	Billy the Kid (2007)	88%
4/4	"A work of stunning intelligence and dramatic sweep, a portrait of a young nation struggling to find itself, torn between religious and business values." Posted Jan 4, 2008	There Will Be Blood (2007)	92%
4/4	"The Diving Bell and the Butterfly tells one extraordinary man's story so well that it reflects vividly on our own." Posted Dec 21, 2007	The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (2007)	94%
4/4	"By all means go, and be prepared for a holiday musical like no other." Posted Dec 21, 2007	Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007)	86%
4/4	"Juno invites you into a world you won't want to leave." Posted Dec 13, 2007	Juno (2007)	93%
4/4	"*Some scary movies can stand your hair on end. A few can make your skin crawl. The Mist* gave me the feeling I was being scalped with an icicle.*" Posted Nov 20, 2007*	Stephen King's The Mist (2007)	71%
4/4	"Adams is daffy and delicious in a star-making role, and the script, direction and music are spot-on." Posted Nov 20, 2007	Enchanted (2007)	93%
4/4	"The family dynamics are skillfully rendered, the suspense is bruising and each man's performance is a revelation." Posted Nov 15, 2007	Before the Devil Knows You're Dead (2007)	88%
4/4	"The film is as lean and mean as a barbed-wire necktie, darkly funny and much deeper than the average crime thriller." Posted Nov 9, 2007	No Country for Old Men (2007)	95%
4/4	"Absurd enough to delight kids, overstuffed with verbal and visual in-jokes for grownups, it's a 90-minute joyride that barely pauses for breath. This is unquestionably the best movie that ever began as a bad pun." Posted Nov 1, 2007	Bee Movie (2007)	52%
4/4	"*A throwback to trim, intelligent moral thrillers like The Verdict* and Absence of Malice.*" Posted Oct 13, 2007*	Michael Clayton (2007)	91%
4/4	"It's 158 minutes long, and worth every languorous second." Posted Oct 4, 2007	Lust, Caution (2007)	70%
4/4	"The film, I am convinced, is unforgettable." Posted Sep 27, 2007	Into the Wild (2007)	83%

4/4	"Superbad maintains that delicate balance of sweetness, empathy and vulgar comedy. It's so packed with irreverent lowbrow wit that you scarcely notice how it quietly shifts from gross-out jokes to adult themes." Posted Aug 16, 2007	Superbad (2007)	87%
4/4	"*Here's hoping Damon is Bourne* again.*" Posted Aug 2, 2007*	The Bourne Ultimatum (2007)	93%

4/4	"It's not just the computer animation that is vibrantly three-dimensional. It's also the well-rounded characters... I defy you to name another animated film so overflowing with superfluous beauty." Posted Jun 28, 2007	Ratatouille (2007)	95%
4/4	"Dahan and Cotillard have created an amazing biopic of an extraordinary voice attached to a fragile and fallible woman." Posted Jun 14, 2007	La Vie En Rose (2007)	75%
4/4	"The film has the energy of a relentless action thriller, memorable characters and significant ideas." Posted May 10, 2007	28 Weeks Later (2007)	71%
4/4	"*A hypnotically absorbing suspense story in the Patricia Highsmith mold, Red Road* draws us in with doom-laden images of high-tech voyeurism before pummeling us with shock twists.*" Posted May 4, 2007*	Red Road (2007)	89%
4/4	"Veber, clearly a fan of the golden age comedies of Billy Wilder, Howard Hawks and Preston Sturges, is a worthy successor." Posted Apr 19, 2007	The Valet (2007)	68%
4/4	"The Host works on so many levels simultaneously that it's like getting a film series for the price of one. You must, must, must see this movie." Posted Mar 8, 2007	The Host (2007)	92%
4/4	"It is a wall-to-wall canvas of expressionist ultraviolence." Posted Mar 8, 2007	300 (2007)	60%
4/4	"A film that is both emotionally and intellectually unsettling." Posted Mar 1, 2007	Zodiac (2007)	89%
4/4	"The deliciously unhinged Guy Maddin makes films that are funny, sinister and mysterious at the same time." Posted Oct 4, 2007	Brand Upon The Brain! (2006)	91%
4/4	"The exceptionally acted film, nominated for a foreign-language Oscar, is an incisive character study, a suspenseful paranoid thriller and a vivid recreation of recent history." Posted Feb 15, 2007	The Lives of Others (2006)	93%
4/4	"Pan's Labyrinth is beautifully shot and designed, but it's the acting that makes it a remarkable emotional journey." Posted Jan 18, 2007	Pan's Labyrinth (2006)	96%
4/4	"Humanizing our old adversaries doesn't erase their war crimes, and Eastwood doesn't whitewash the brutality of Japanese militarism. His point is that the Emperor's infantrymen were as much the victims of the Japanese war machine as the GIs they fought." Posted Jan 13, 2007	Letters From Iwo Jima (2006)	91%
4/4	"A beautifully observed, profoundly moving tale of suburban malaise." Posted Jan 4, 2007	Little Children (2006)	81%
4/4	"Cuar�n also pulls us deep into the engrossing universe he has created. There is a stark absence of gadget porn in this futuristic adventure; the most advanced device we see is a video game, innovation at its most trivial." Posted Jan 4, 2007	Children of Men (2006)	92%
4/4	"Effectively balanced between the nonfiction muckraking of Eric Schlosser's bestselling expos� and the loosely structured character drama of Richard Linklater's adaptation, the film is fascinating food for thought." Posted Nov 16, 2006	Fast Food Nation (2006)	51%
4/4	"Conceptually brilliant and fearlessly executed, it rewrites the rules of screen comedy, presenting something never before seen on film: a gene-splice of Andy Kaufman's high-wire character humor and caught-on-the-street pranks from Punk'd." Posted Nov 2, 2006	Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (2006)	91%
4/4	"Eastwood's skeptical film is respectful of the patriots who gave everything in the service of their country, but it pointedly leaves the flag-waving to others." Posted Oct 19, 2006	Flags of Our Fathers (2006)	73%
4/4	"Coppola's film is a superior achievement, a story as rich and resonant as its protagonist is hollow." Posted Oct 19, 2006	Marie Antoinette (2006)	54%
4/4	"If the story suffers initially from a slight lack of focus, hang in there, because you will soon become immersed in a mesmerizing, expertly plotted cat-and-mouse game." Posted Oct 5, 2006	The Departed (2006)	92%
4/4	"A riveting firsthand look at the conflict on the battlefield, in the barracks, and on the home front, unfiltered by any partisan prejudice." Posted Sep 14, 2006	The War Tapes (2006)	98%
4/4	"It delivers all the thrills, suspense and amazement fans could demand of a comic book story, leaping from scene to scene with superheroic agility." Posted Jun 27, 2006	Superman Returns (2006)	77%
4/4	"Puiu maintains a strong current of suspense about the outcome -- despite the title, will this Lazarus be revived? --- and a bracingly cynical sense of humor that rescues the material from being a total downer." Posted Jun 15, 2006	The Death of Mr. Lazarescu (2006)	93%
4/4	"A lucid, evenhanded look at the dangers that face democracy and the rule of law in an unending cycle of terrorism and counterterrorism." Posted Apr 6, 2006	State of Fear: The Truth About Terrorism (2006)	100%
4/4	"To watch the film is to feel the delicious discomfort of being seduced by a devilish charmer." Posted Mar 30, 2006	Thank You For Smoking (2006)	86%
4/4	"A gallery of brilliantly realized, graceful and sensual presentations. No one who loves music or dance should miss this." Posted Jun 15, 2006	Iberia (2005)	n/a
4/4	"If this film were any funnier, the world would explode." Posted Dec 22, 2005	The Producers (2005)	51%
4/4	"It has become shorthand to call Brokeback Mountain the 'gay cowboy movie,' but it is much more than that glib description implies. This is a human story, a haunting film in the tradition of the great Hollywood romantic melodramas." Posted Dec 20, 2005	Brokeback Mountain (2005)	87%
4/4	"Serkis' contribution truly is something we've never seen, an entirely new category of computer-enhanced acting. With not a word of dialogue, he brings to life a close cousin to man with whom we can empathize, yet is never too human-like." Posted Dec 14, 2005	King Kong (2005)	84%
4/4	"*There's no mistaking the sound of Johnny Cash, and Walk the Line* gets it just right.*" Posted Nov 17, 2005*	Walk the Line (2005)	83%
