	"An eco-supernatural dreamscape companion piece to Al Gore's cautionary doc, An Incovenient Truth, and a thinking man's figurative and literal sub-Arctic chiller with a turbulent character-driven indie soul." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jul 23, 2008	The Last Winter (2007)	78%
	"Treating card playing as an exciting spectator sport rather than, say, about as thrilling as watching fishing for two hours, this offbeat cautionary tale warns all those impulsive casino-bound eggheads out there, that losers come in all IQ's." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jul 23, 2008	21 (2008)	35%
	"Out of control desires like sex, food and emotional neediness intertwine with their opposites of starvation, abstinence, denial, shame and self-hatred throughout this raw and revealing, intensely intimate drama." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jul 20, 2008	Disfigured (2008)	80%
	"A prison sex slave rebellion having to do with an organ sandwich, don't ask, and a detour over to Bush's secret sex den, make this ballsy doper duo and their Blue State versus Red State rant hard to resist." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jul 18, 2008	Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008)	54%
	"This richly layered allegorical clash between a criminal and a communist, pits the urge for survival despite one's debasement, against defiance, collective rebellion and martyrdom - the very impulses that advance history, but at enormous cost." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jul 13, 2008	The Counterfeiters (2008)	94%
	""Jodie 'Brave One' Foster is still peeved, though now it's less about what bad people do, than how icky their unsanitary their germs are. And she isn't half bad either doing a divine nitwit dining on worms or playing soccer with a coconut in the wilds." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jul 13, 2008	Nim's Island (2008)	49%
	"This investigative literal and figurative global chain reaction appears to be yet another exceptionally worthy addition to the evolving genre of what may be termed anti-globalization cinema." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jul 12, 2008	Mardi Gras: Made in China (2005)	68%
	"With only a DNA witch's curse pig's snout compromising Ricci's otherwise exceedingly alluring physical assets, it doesn't make a lick of sense that prospective suitors are jumping out of windows after catching a glimpse of her disfigured beak." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jul 12, 2008	Penelope (2008)	52%
	"The Stones aspire to project physical and musical agelessness, and a reinvented rebellion switched from anti-patriarchal authority to one against Father Time. You don't need a weathered man to know which way the wind blows." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jul 12, 2008	Shine a Light (2008)	86%
	"For better or worse, Satan seems to have gotten his very own reality show and is loving all the attention, in this combo Exorcist, Blair Witch Project and clerics gone wild movie within a movie." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jul 5, 2008	Chronicles of an Exorcism (2007)	n/a
	"Taking its cue from the tabloids, this is yet another addition to that tacky category of scandal sheet cinema. Why do celebrities with charmed Hollywood lives imagine everyday people as a bunch of sleazy or dimwitted degenerates, misfits and assassins." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jul 3, 2008	Sleepwalking (2008)	19%
	"These heady high jinks ultimately deflate as a gritty collection of assembled journalistic details, with little solid dramatic scrutiny of dirty politics or shadowy personalities." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jul 3, 2008	The Bank Job (2008)	78%
	"Surveillance cinema at its best, with audience attention span on high alert, camcorders and palm pilots elbowing their way in, and plenty of optic nerve to spare." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 28, 2008	Vantage Point (2008)	35%
	"A Superbad lite knockoff replacing sex with violence and minus the dirty talk, Drillbit Taylor is its own worst enemy by tackling a grim subject like school bullies for laughs." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 28, 2008	Drillbit Taylor (2008)	26%
	"The movie is all over the map in more than just its cross-country itinerary, and these stars are all far too good looking to imagine them as unrequited lovers and perpetual losers. But that blueberry pie sure looks awfully good." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 28, 2008	My Blueberry Nights (2008)	47%
	"Cusack as a mercenary in bulltetproof designer suits and Hilary Duff doing a kinky Arab superstar sexpot shoving scorpions down her crotch, can't save this satire crossing the line between the chaos of war and the chaos of filmmaking." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 28, 2008	War, Inc. (2008)	31%
	"Master of disguise Perry's tangled web of narrative threads range from poignant to positively awful." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 27, 2008	Tyler Perry's Meet the Browns (2008)	31%
	"Lots of gab, a little flesh flashing, more gab, and not much action or momentum. French Kissing, Brokeback Mountain style." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 21, 2008	The Witnesses (2008)	85%
	"Less about boys and bras, than a remarkably eloquent personal journey into complicated womanhood, whose candor and poetry of the naked soul reach into the heart to explore raw emotion and existential pain." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 21, 2008	Persepolis (2007)	96%
	"Ritual and rebellion collide in this bittersweet confection casting a rare gaze upon the pleasures, sorrows, dreams and sexual desires of Arab women in the Middle East." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 21, 2008	Caramel (2008)	91%
	"Kevin Bacon turns in a solid, attention grabbing performance as a rigid, scornful man in a deep funk just trying to cling to a familiar world disintegrating all around him." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 20, 2008	Rails & Ties (2007)	34%
	"Brooding, tense, allegorical, quirky, tragic and unbelievably funny, In Bruges may be the most intelligent, introspective and bizarre gangster thriller in quite some time, perhaps ever." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 20, 2008	In Bruges (2008)	80%
	"Tosses together hobgoblins and home-alone latchkey kids with tomato sauce baggies as instruments of battle, bad parenting, and boy and girl savior daydreams fulfilled on screen." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 19, 2008	The Spiderwick Chronicles (2008)	79%
	"A bloody banquet of excessive, tasteless gore, but with an odd infusion of unsavory humor that never meshes with the horror. Think fatal car crash with a laugh track." -- Baret News Posted Jun 18, 2008	The Signal (2007)	55%
	"A bittersweet take on the twentysomething tribulations of young adulthood when messy matters like love and work need to be sorted out, and soon." -- Baret News Posted Jun 18, 2008	Only for You (2008)	n/a
	"A bittersweet bedtime story about at least three babes who broke a guy's heart during his hard knocks, early adult years, in addition to, well, Bill Clinton." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 16, 2008	Definitely, Maybe (2008)	72%
	"Ready to rumble, scantily clad Neanderthals gone wild, gliding around the globe faster than high speed Internet. And while dodging seemingly nearsighted menacing reptiles with bad manners, whose oversized choppers repeatedly miss their mark." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 14, 2008	10,000 B.C. (2008)	9%
	"Sam relishes doing super-mean and ready to rumble, while Hayden jaunts around the planet sightseeing, bank robbing and hitting on women." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 14, 2008	Jumper (2008)	16%
	"An odd combination of sociopolitical metaphor and conventional melodrama, Chinese filmmaker Zhang Yang's Sunflower has moments of keen insight and power touching on the ways in which human character and personality are shaped by historical experience." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 10, 2008	Sunflower (2005)	64%
	"An all in the dysfunctional family royal romp with incestuous tendencies, this richly textured, dramatically disciplined, erotically laced and emotionally taut creation makes for weirdly kinky historical analysis, but pretty steamy pre-tabloid melodrama." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 9, 2008	The Other Boleyn Girl (2008)	42%
	"With the cult of cruelty wallpapering the media more than ever, and murders, wars and celebrity breakdowns as spectator sport, it was inevitable that the cinema of sadism would grab the untapped egghead arthouse crowd market. And the stampede is on." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 5, 2008	Funny Games (2008)	50%
	"McConaughey's sexy beach bum feeds his obsession for 40 lost chests of gold, while Kate smacks around lots of big, burly men who pretend to be terrified, in this snoozer treasure hunt travelogue." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 5, 2008	Fool's Gold (2008)	10%
	"A people's cinema rough cut heart so squarely in the right place over in Passaic as opposed to Hollywood, that it's pretty much hard to resist." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 5, 2008	Be Kind Rewind (2008)	68%
	"More in the nature of audience eavesdropping on some scandalous neighbors than gripping or meaningful storytelling, the film is wracked with superficial, amoral characters and petty, hand wringing sordid emotional preoccupations and obsessions." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 5, 2008	Summer '04 (2006)	79%
	"No Grumpy Old Men these two, as Nicholson's over-the hill sex machine billionaire with his serial quickies on demand, and Freeman's egghead underachiever spar with the Grim Reaper. Two Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 5, 2008	The Bucket List (2007)	42%
	"Affectionate if foul-mouthed locker room method acting, with defensive moves on behalf of the mostly flabby-abs homeboy team concept. And counting all sorts of eccentric, nutty and deeply lovable players, before sports went commercial and big time." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 2, 2008	Semi-Pro (2008)	21%
	"Toujours suggests either creative immortality of a work of cinema as it flows through the imaginative process from one director to another, or simply sexual obsession perpetually unresolved. Or perhaps even a little of both." -- NewsBlaze Posted Jun 2, 2008	Belle Toujours (2006)	67%
	"There's loads of atmosphere and charm to this tale, but little that seems compelling or heartfelt to the drama, which in contrast feels sketchy and contrived, without a clear sense of character beyond conceptualized stick figures." -- NewsBlaze Posted May 31, 2008	Vanaja (2007)	78%
	"A bizarre, leering orgy of celebrity crotches, lowbrow horny gay buffoons in leather, moronic gladiator mayhem, and too-much-information cascading bodily fluids galore." -- NewsBlaze Posted May 29, 2008	Meet the Spartans (2008)	2%
	"A terrifying treat for horror junkies, as Alba's nervous wreck visionary wards off being attacked by apartments and restaurants, while dealing with a bad case of occult organ rejection." -- NewsBlaze Posted May 29, 2008	The Eye (2008)	21%
	"Funny man John Leguizamo gets in touch with his furious and fiery side in The Take, and that transitional extreme mood swing is surprisingly impressive." -- NewsBlaze Posted May 19, 2008	The Take (2008)	92%
	"Perhaps Majidi intended wry commentary and observation of the dubious influences of Western culture on Iran, where outside scientific, technological and material advances impart a knowledge that is not necessarily likewise wisdom, enlightenment or virtue." -- NewsBlaze Posted May 15, 2008	The Willow Tree (2005)	88%
	"Goodby rebel lifestyle, free love and recreational hot sex, hello conventional midlife crisis." -- NewsBlaze Posted May 15, 2008	Flying: Confessions of a Free Woman (2007)	74%
	"Too bad such a stellar combo cast had to get dumbed down for such inconsequential pandemonium." -- NewsBlaze Posted May 15, 2008	National Treasure 2 : Book of Secrets (2007)	31%
	"Farrell and McGregor try their best to infuse their shallow characters with potent dramatic spunk, but it's basically Allen's typical neurotic hand-wringing nerds with tacked-on British accents." -- NewsBlaze Posted May 15, 2008	Cassandra's Dream (2008)	51%
	"Suspiciously wrinkle-resistant Stallone in comeback, a Rambo in serious need of anger management and not too shy to get into a little ripping out of throats with bare hands and selective disemboweling too." -- NewsBlaze Posted May 13, 2008	Rambo (2008)	35%
	"Creepy, suspenseful cyber-thriller about downloading death, hacker homicide, and a baby-faced computer geek wielding a mouse as a deadly weapon." -- NewsBlaze Posted May 9, 2008	Untraceable (2008)	15%
	"With all the nurses making moves on the suicidal old codger's renovated physique, Coppola's Youth Without Youth comes across as somewhere between The Godfather On Viagra and Apocalypse Then, Redux." -- NewsBlaze Posted May 9, 2008	Youth Without Youth (2007)	29%
	"Lost In Beijing is most noted for several thumb-nosing gratuitous sex scenes that got the movie reprimanded by the censors back home." -- NewsBlaze Posted May 7, 2008	Lost in Beijing (2008)	47%
	"The director's disappointment in Dylan's downward metamorphosis from outlaw poet, prophet and political idealist to cynic, egotist, wasted stoner, Jesus freak and recluse, is palpable, with a symbolic dirge for a body that has outlived its art." -- NewsBlaze Posted May 7, 2008	I'm Not There (2007)	78%
