	"...if, like me, you've always thought the Paul Dini/Bruce Timm animated version was tops, you should be pretty happy with what Christopher Nolan has done this time around." -- LYTRules.com Posted Jul 17, 2008	The Dark Knight (2008)	95%
	"It's a good story with a well-defined sense of jeopardy, and appropriate performances by York and Agutter, but my most major problem is that too much is unexplained." -- LYTRules.com Posted Jul 10, 2008	Logan's Run (1976)	72%
	"We know Bronson can be a tough guy, but not so much the mild-mannered guy; he seems to be trying to split the difference the whole time" -- LYTRules.com Posted Jul 10, 2008	Death Wish (1974)	70%
C	"Though the story starts off as a mess and only gets worse, there's some solid physical comedy." -- E! Online Posted Jul 10, 2008	Meet Dave (2008)	21%
	"None of this is especially funny, though Rifkin has somehow managed to persuade a whole lot of women to get topless and vaguely hold our attention." -- L.A. Weekly Posted Jul 10, 2008	National Lampoon's Homo Erectus (2008)	n/a
	"It may be the first Iraq war-related movie that can equally appeal to both left and right" -- L.A. Weekly Posted Jul 1, 2008	American Son (2008)	100%
	"As a 2-D movie, or inevitable DVD, it probably fails. As a 3-D experience, though, it rocks." -- L.A. Weekly Posted Jul 1, 2008	Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008)	60%
	"...in a summer of billionaires with robot suits and nerdy scientists with rage issues, somehow the red-skinned demon who drinks beer in the shower is the big screen superhero I can relate to the most." -- L.A. Weekly Posted Jun 29, 2008	Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)	87%
	"It's cliched and gooey, but because it's English, and has Helena Bonham Carter in a rare non-gothy role, viewers may be fooled into thinking it's quirky. No." -- L.A. Weekly Posted Jun 27, 2008	Sixty Six (2008)	83%
	"Highly recommended. In a world where the Best Animated Feature Oscar were not basically owned by Disney and Dreamworks, it would be a deserving champion." -- L.A. Weekly Posted Jun 25, 2008	Fear(s) of the Dark (2008)	n/a
	"A movie like this tends to come out at least once a year." -- L.A. Weekly Posted Jun 25, 2008	Winged Creatures (2008)	n/a
	"Honestly, this is like the anti-SEX AND THE CITY. I liked that movie, but if you're a dude who hated it and got dragged by your girlfriend anyway, this is the appropriate payback date film." -- L.A. Weekly Posted Jun 24, 2008	Choke (2008)	n/a
	"The balance is weighted in favor of character-based laughs rather than scares, but the deadpan tone is maintained throughout" -- L.A. Weekly Posted Jun 23, 2008	Baghead (2008)	87%
	"Angelina's first line in the movie is "You apologize too much." The movie itself never does" -- L.A. Weekly Posted Jun 20, 2008	Wanted (2008)	72%
D+	"Early on in the movie, Myers' guru character, Pitka, is doing yoga and literally sticks his head up his own rear end. There could be no more apt metaphor for what ensues onscreen" -- E! Online Posted Jun 19, 2008	The Love Guru (2008)	15%
	"The movie has a great premise, but the execution doesn't live up to the potential." -- LYTRules.com Posted Jun 16, 2008	Silent Running (1971)	65%
	"Shyamalan's direction always seems so serious that it's easy to imagine he may be screwing up when he draws laughs, but I'd lay down money that many of these were deliberate." -- LYTRules.com Posted Jun 15, 2008	The Happening (2008)	19%
	"I had a moderate amount of fun, and proclaim THE INCREDIBLE HULK pretty okay. But I have seen better." -- LYTRules.com Posted Jun 13, 2008	The Incredible Hulk (2008)	67%
	"Prendergast is clearly a force to be reckoned with -- his fearless performance as Salman/Kabluey is a thing of beauty, and his sense of story and humor are note-perfect." -- OC Weekly Posted Jun 6, 2008	Kabluey (2008)	86%
	"...after two and a half hours with these ladies, I've decided that I like them." -- LYTRules.com Posted Jun 2, 2008	Sex and the City: The Movie (2008)	51%
	"THE STRANGERS basically is FUNNY GAMES all over again. Well-crafted suspense in which the director refuses to give you the catharsis you seek in order to "make a point."" -- LYTRules.com Posted May 31, 2008	The Strangers (2008)	41%
N/A	"LYTrules.com EXCLUSIVE: Director David Hackl talks SAW V" -- LYTRules.com Posted May 29, 2008	Saw V (2008)	n/a
N/A	"LYTrules.com EXCLUSIVE: Tobin Bell talks SAW V" -- LYTRules.com Posted May 28, 2008	Saw V (2008)	n/a
	"[T]he best of the Indiana Jones movies...it's insanely wonderful, in every sense of those words." -- LYTRules.com Posted May 25, 2008	Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984)	84%
N/A	"Uwe Boll Goes Postal" -- L.A. Weekly Posted May 21, 2008	Postal (2008)	9%
	"[George Lucas] and Steven Spielberg have earned back a lot of goodwill with this one. It's the only Spielberg movie in over a decade that actually ends when it's supposed to." -- OC Weekly Posted May 21, 2008	Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)	76%
	"...as inferior to the first book as the second one is, so is the second film from the first. Which is about right." -- OC Weekly Posted May 16, 2008	The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008)	66%
	"The ending is also note-perfect. However...it could have used perhaps a bit more restraint in some areas." -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 28, 2008	Choose Connor (2007)	n/a
	"Not an uncontrived moment goes by." -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 28, 2008	Sherman's Way (2008)	n/a
	"If this kid were your classmate in school, you'd avoid him. Doing likewise with the movie won't hurt." -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 28, 2008	King of Ping Pong (2008)	n/a
	"...cloying and a structural mess" -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 28, 2008	The Art of Travel (2008)	40%
	"one of the best movie opening sequences in recent memory...The rest, unfortunately, is a bit more predictable." -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 28, 2008	Time Crimes (2007)	n/a
	"Presented as a sort of romantic neo-fairy-tale, the movie rarely acknowledges the inherent creepiness of its premise." -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 28, 2008	Mister Foe (2008)	81%
	"As a director, Stephen Berra makes this all quite palatable, but as a writer, he frequently mistakes platitudes for profundity." -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 28, 2008	The Good Life (2007)	20%
	"*A wonderfully knowing portrait of the fading small-town lifestyle in the Emerald Isle, Garage* doesn't quite make the "must-see" list because of its ending*" -- OC Weekly* Posted Apr 28, 2008	Garage (2008)	n/a
	"If you haven't had enough of Holocaust-related tales onscreen, this is a perfectly serviceable one" -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 28, 2008	Fugitive Pieces (2008)	69%
	"*...it's kind of like Van Wilder* with fewer laughs and a really horrible soundtrack.*" -- OC Weekly* Posted Apr 28, 2008	Frost (2008)	n/a
	"*Likely to overwhelm and annoy viewers hoping for Juno Part II, it is nonetheless an audacious and imaginative work that's sure to remain one of the year's best." -- OC Weekly* Posted Apr 24, 2008	The Tracey Fragments (2008)	40%
	"Gone are the days when you could rig a movie theater's seats with electric buzzers to simulate a monster attack...but you can relive them via this exuberant tribute" -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 24, 2008	Spine Tingler! The William Castle Story (2008)	n/a
	"Some of the dialogue is overly cinema-savvy for naive kids ("We're losing light!"), but...director Garth Jennings gives the proceedings a charmingly surreal and imaginative tone." -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 24, 2008	Son of Rambow (2008)	75%
	"And you thought you had trouble connecting with your parents!" -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 24, 2008	The Edge of Heaven (2008)	90%
	"A well-done movie all-around -- but what teenager today uses film in her camera?" -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 24, 2008	Caterpillar Wish (2006)	n/a
	"If there's a flaw to the film, it's that the hero has none -- he's such a saint that this sometimes feels like a scripture lesson." -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 24, 2008	Captain Abu Raed (2008)	n/a
	"...we follow middle-aged bachelor Dai around Tokyo while he feeds his cat, rides the subway, and periodically transforms into a 50-foot tall tattooed wrestler who battles giant monsters." -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 24, 2008	Big Man Japan (2007)	n/a
	"...a refreshing antidote to the overly beautified "teenagers" and excessively clean buildings that populate Hollywood's phony high school stories." -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 24, 2008	American Teen (2008)	67%
	"...even [Don] Cheadle is no substitute for the man himself." -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 24, 2008	Adjust Your Color: The Truth of Petey Greene (2008)	n/a
	"Bloodless, but just make sure your young 'uns are past the stage of copying all the moves they see." -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 18, 2008	The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)	63%
	"*When a movie opens with the diner scene from When Harry Met Sally* as performed by cadavers, and later proceeds to sex scenes involving scalpels and needles, the actual plot becomes inconsequential.*" -- OC Weekly* Posted Apr 18, 2008	Pathology (2008)	50%
	"A consistently hilarious, brutal, and titillating mash-up of Return of the Living Dead and Showgirls that actually beats out Mark Pirro's Nudist Colony of the Dead for the unofficial title of best naked zombie movie ever." -- Village Voice Posted Apr 16, 2008	Zombie Strippers (2008)	39%
	"Ayer keeps upping the ante, to the point where finally you go, "Okay, NOW this [stuff] they're doing is definitely unacceptable."" -- OC Weekly Posted Apr 11, 2008	Street Kings (2008)	36%
