A	"Working from interviews with many of the key players, Morris investigates the Abu Ghraib case with all the rigor of his film The Thin Blue Line, and comes away with an equally convincing argument for miscarried justice." -- Onion AV Club Posted Apr 24, 2008	Standard Operating Procedure (2008)	78%
A	"A chilly and extraordinarily controlled treatise on film violence, Funny Games punishes the audience for its casual bloodlust by giving it all the sickening torture and mayhem it could possibly desire. Neat trick, that." -- Onion AV Club Posted Mar 13, 2008	Funny Games (2008)	50%
A	"Captures the tenor of a particular era with uncanny force." -- Onion AV Club Posted Jan 24, 2008	4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days (2008)	96%
A	"*There's a madness to Lake Of Fire, a two-and-a-half hour documentary about abortion in America, that goes hand-in-glove with its staggering achievement." -- Onion AV Club* Posted Oct 5, 2007	Lake of Fire (2007)	94%
A	"Pitt's subtle work -- relaxed and confident, yet seething with quiet menace -- is complemented beautifully by Affleck's enigmatic Ford, whose admiration for (and fear of) James distinguishes him from a run-of-the-mill scoundrel." -- Onion AV Club Posted Sep 20, 2007	The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007)	75%
A	"An uproariously frank treatment of pregnancy and adulthood. Movies about family chaos are generally the province of PG-rated Steve Martin comedies, which makes the raw candor of Apatow's film not only refreshing, but more honest in its sentiment." -- Onion AV Club Posted May 31, 2007	Knocked Up (2007)	91%
A	"Zodiac is the rare serial-killer movie in which the psychosis stems as much from the pursuers (and the filmmaker) as the pursued." -- Onion AV Club Posted Mar 3, 2007	Zodiac (2007)	89%
A	"*Right from the pungent opening line, The Departed* has that Goodfellas pop, from the first-rate cast to the sharp black comedy to the startling incidents of violence.*" -- Onion AV Club* Posted Oct 6, 2006	The Departed (2006)	92%
A-	"As an exercise in controlled mayhem, horror movies don't get much scarier." -- Onion AV Club Posted May 29, 2008	The Strangers (2008)	41%
A-	"*It's a righteously nasty piece of work, and a rare example of a movie that traffics in B-movie grime without a trace of Grindhouse-style self-consciousness." -- Onion AV Club* Posted May 29, 2008	Stuck (2008)	71%
A-	"Gone Baby Gone quietly accumulates in power, leading to one of the more subtly devastating final shots in recent memory." -- Onion AV Club Posted Oct 19, 2007	Gone Baby Gone (2007)	94%
A-	"Tempting as it might be to dismiss McCandless as a hare-brained hippie, he's not so easily reduced, and Penn does well to honor his slippery nature, even as he's clearly awed by his grand adventure." -- Onion AV Club Posted Sep 20, 2007	Into the Wild (2007)	83%
A-	"Damon's minimalist style is key to why the Bourne movies have become an oasis from other blockbuster action fare; freed from the bells and whistles of computer-generated effects...and they've succeeded in bringing the genre back down to earth." -- Onion AV Club Posted Aug 2, 2007	The Bourne Ultimatum (2007)	93%
A-	"Old Joy doesn't try for too much, but its subtle victories leave plenty to savor." -- Onion AV Club Posted Sep 22, 2006	Old Joy (2006)	85%
A-	"Any other romantic melodrama would have them bubbling over with passion, but these characters are painfully tentative and believably so, given that they're both betraying someone they care about." -- Onion AV Club Posted Aug 31, 2006	Mutual Appreciation (2006)	88%
A-	"For director Ryan Fleck, co-writer/producer/editor Anna Boden, and their remarkable cast, the solution is to underplay every scene and let the central character's ambiguities set a rocky course for the movie to follow." -- Onion AV Club Posted Aug 10, 2006	Half Nelson (2006)	91%
A-	"Mysterious and bold at every turn..." -- Onion AV Club Posted May 4, 2006	Down in the Valley (2006)	52%
A-	"*"...packed with geeky allusions to everything from Raymond Chandler to Blue Velvet"" -- Onion AV Club* Posted Mar 30, 2006	Brick (2006)	78%
A-	"One of the film's savage ironies is that his wife's inevitable betrayal strikes less at his heart than at his all-consuming sense of order." -- Onion AV Club Posted Jul 12, 2006	Gabrielle (2005)	75%
