"Bhoothnath (Ghost Lord) has all the hallmarks of wacky family comedies the world over, although with some admirably dark and serious spots as well." -- Film Journal International
Posted May 14, 2008
 
Bhoothnath (2008)n/a
/
 
"[Page is] virtually the sole reason to see this duller-than-it-sounds experiment." -- Film Journal International
Posted May 13, 2008
 
The Tracey Fragments (2008)38%
/
 
"It's all a bombastic mishmash that makes you feel like you've been stuffed inside a kaleidoscope and shaken for two hours." -- Film Journal International
Posted May 7, 2008
 
Speed Racer (2008)34%
/
 
"Crowded with dizzying visuals, dry humor, cartoonishy violent set-pieces that play like Indian spaghetti Westerns, and gorgeously shot musical numbers." -- Film Journal International
Posted May 7, 2008
 
Tashan (2008)n/a
/
3/4
 
"Despite several adrenaline-pumping moments, Favreau and Downey stay focused on the real story -- about a man learning to take responsibility for his actions. For all its firepower and CGI slickness, that's what really makes Iron Man fly." -- Newsday
Posted Apr 30, 2008
 
Iron Man (2008)93%
/
 
"This thoughtful actioner ultimately is less about the Iron than it is about the Man." -- Film Journal International
Posted Apr 30, 2008
 
Iron Man (2008)93%
/
 
"It's the kind of movie that would have even Cinemax subscribers yelling things like, "Wait a minute, how could he%u2014?" and "Oh, hold on now, that doesn't make sense!"" -- Film Journal International
Posted Apr 24, 2008
 
Deception (2008)12%
/
 
"As dull as a conversation with a corpse." -- Film Journal International
Posted Apr 23, 2008
 
Pathology (2008)47%
/
 
"A movie about a premise that metamorphoses into twaddle." -- Film Journal International
Posted Apr 21, 2008
 
Anamorph (2008)27%
/
 
"Though repetitively talky in the first half, shows an accomplished eye for visuals and a confident hand for narrative." -- Film Journal International
Posted Apr 21, 2008
 
U Me Aur Hum (2008)n/a
/
 
"There are Bollywood movie musicals that are shorter and more coherent." -- Film Journal International
Posted Apr 14, 2008
 
Funky Forest: The First Contact (2005)n/a
/
 
"Terrifically shot, and brimming with equal parts snarky heart and the most well-duh insights since your college senior thesis." -- Film Journal International
Posted Apr 9, 2008
 
Last Stop For Paul (2008)70%
/
 
"[A] twisty, gorgeously shot and edited house of games with some of the all-out best action scenes you'll ever see." -- Film Journal International
Posted Mar 31, 2008
 
Race (2008)n/a
/
 
"Makes you see the humanity and vulnerability of quick-fisted, gun-loving, jingoistic guys[...]a testament to the filmmakers' own expansive sense of humanity." -- Film Journal International
Posted Mar 27, 2008
 
Stop-Loss (2008)65%
/
 
"By any aesthetic or cinematic standard, it is a terrible movie." -- Film Journal International
Posted Mar 25, 2008
 
Tyler Perry's Meet the Browns (2008)30%
/
 
"Suitable only for kids or for undiscerning immigrants happy to see themselves heroically portrayed on film." -- Film Journal International
Posted Mar 18, 2008
 
Under the Same Moon (2008)74%
/
 
"Clear, comprehensible, polished and articulate, but lacking the gut-punch to raise this portrait of a world-changing event from the level of a museum piece." -- Film Journal International
Posted Mar 17, 2008
 
Sputnik Mania (2008)87%
/
 
"Clearly, the B.C. here stands for Benetton Colors, since it's got nothing to do real history." -- Film Journal International
Posted Mar 7, 2008
 
10,000 B.C. (2008)9%
/
 
"The action is grand and wildly imaginative, shot and edited so adroitly you wish the movie could have teleported in some genuine human characters." -- Film Journal International
Posted Feb 13, 2008
 
Jumper (2008)16%
/
 
"It's no more nor less than International Treasure: Book of Sea Crests." -- Film Journal International
Posted Feb 8, 2008
 
Fool's Gold (2008)10%
/
 
"Earnest and overlong, the result is a meandering short story of a movie that, for all its good intentions and occasional insights, doesn't gel." -- Film Journal International
Posted Feb 5, 2008
 
Live and Become (2008)80%
/
 
"This farcical comedy is a Morlock of a movie--an ugly, subhuman dirt-dweller." -- Film Journal International
Posted Feb 5, 2008
 
Strange Wilderness (2008)0%
/
 
"It's mind-boggling to imagine that this witless, amateurish mess came from supposedly professional writers and directors." -- Film Journal International
Posted Jan 28, 2008
 
Meet the Spartans (2008)2%
/
 
"A movie where not one emotion nor even some of the backdrops seem the least bit real." -- Film Journal International
Posted Dec 31, 2007
 
The Bucket List (2007)40%
/
 
"Faris gamely goes Garbo and Lombard one better, taking her cute little firecracker looks and being willing to go full-out to appear appropriately, hilariously awful when the story calls for it." -- Film Journal International
Posted Dec 21, 2007
 
Smiley Face (2007)67%
/
 
"It takes a remarkable anti-ability to grab hold of a subject as visual and dramatic as big-mountain skiing and turn it into a dull night at the lodge." -- Film Journal International
Posted Dec 19, 2007
 
Steep (2007)55%
/
 
"Don't walk hard, run to see this." -- Film Journal International
Posted Dec 19, 2007
 
Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (2007)74%
/
 
"Despite the appealing supporting performers, I'd like to cap this movie." -- Film Journal International
Posted Dec 13, 2007
 
The Perfect Holiday (2007)17%
/
 
"A godforsaken lesson on awful filmmaking, relieved only by occasional sharp turns from a crackerjack supporting cast." -- Film Journal International
Posted Dec 12, 2007
 
Divine Intervention (2007)n/a
/
 
"Skousen as storyteller captures the language, the drag, the excesses and the simultaneously sad and wonderful friendships cementing each group." -- Film Journal International
Posted Dec 10, 2007
 
The Sasquatch Gang (2007)46%
/
 
"Revolver bogs down badly less than halfway through in a repetitious loop of navel-gazing." -- Film Journal International
Posted Dec 7, 2007
 
Revolver (2007)16%
/
 
"Overriding any such quibbles is Dupuis' utterly immersed performance and the film's sheer visual beauty. Aside from director Binamé's other talents, he actually makes hockey play comprehensible." -- Film Journal International
Posted Dec 4, 2007
 
The Rocket (2007)56%
/
 
"The lovely and fun-loving Aaja Nachle keys in on just the right tone to keep from seeming silly." -- Film Journal International
Posted Dec 4, 2007
 
Aaja Nachle (2007)n/a
/
 
"It's not a great movie by any means, but as a throwaway thriller with a terrific mid-movie twist, it's not bad way to spend 84 minutes." -- Film Journal International
Posted Dec 3, 2007
 
Awake (2007)23%
/
 
"It's a lovely ideal, and the food dishes are photographed scrumptiously, but the whole thing comes off undercooked." -- Film Journal International
Posted Nov 20, 2007
 
Nina's Heavenly Delights (2007)6%
/
 
"It is impossible not to be impressed by their sincerity and commitment." -- Film Journal International
Posted Nov 15, 2007
 
What Would Jesus Buy? (2007)65%
/
 
"Saawariya doesn't collapse but does wobble for much of its nearly 150-minute running time" -- Film Journal International
Posted Nov 9, 2007
 
Saawariya (2007)43%
/
 
"An engaging idea gets mostly lost amid underdeveloped characters, a pointless subplot and creepy CGI." -- Film Journal International
Posted Nov 8, 2007
 
Fred Claus (2007)22%
/
 
"Comes off with a prettying slickness that, while it certainly doesn't negate the horror, tends to belie the reality." -- Film Journal International
Posted Nov 6, 2007
 
War Dance (2007)86%
/
 
"Sheen is absolutely remarkable, and you hope the film gets enough attention to render him a much-deserved Oscar nomination." -- Film Journal International
Posted Oct 26, 2007
 
Music Within (2007)31%
/
 
"May be the warmest, most heartbreaking family drama I've seen in years." -- Film Journal International
Posted Oct 26, 2007
 
Bella (2007)45%
/
 
"No one needed to pull the emergency brake to derail this movie, but they should have anyway." -- Film Journal International
Posted Oct 25, 2007
 
Rails & Ties (2007)32%
/
 
"As corny and joyful as anything you'd see on Turner Classic Movies." -- Film Journal International
Posted Oct 19, 2007
 
Laaga Chunari Mein Daag - Journey of a Woman (2007)n/a
/
 
"It gives the self-aggrandizing Barnes just enough celluloid to hang himself." -- Film Journal International
Posted Oct 19, 2007
 
Mr. Untouchable (2007)74%
/
 
"Some chucklesome broad comedy doesn't make up for even more bug-eyed mugging, and the English-language subtitles are inexcusably cut-rate." -- Film Journal International
Posted Oct 16, 2007
 
Bhool Bhulaiyaa (2007)n/a
/
 
"Small and slow-moving, and not in a way that means finely detailed and pensive." -- Film Journal International
Posted Oct 12, 2007
 
Canvas (2007)75%
/
 
"[A] ponderous, clumping fantasy with confusing and seemingly contradictory internal logic." -- Film Journal International
Posted Oct 5, 2007
 
The Seeker (2007)13%
/
 
"The charms of this college gross-out comedy with a "message" are elusive." -- Film Journal International
Posted Sep 27, 2007
 
Freshman Orientation (2007)33%
