T-METER
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jul 23, 2008
 
21 (2008)35%
 N/A  
"Without question one of the most demonic, pure incarnations of nightmarish instant classic movie villains, Heath Ledger's Joker self-mutilated danger junkie, misery loves company chaos freak in hellish warpaint may be gone, but will never be forgotten." -- Long Island Press
Posted Jul 20, 2008
 
The Dark Knight (2008)95%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jul 18, 2008
 
Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008)54%
 N/A  
"There's a neat free spirit versus family values message here, about a dad being no big deal when you can have three. Not to mention that family is more about who loves you, than whatever does or doesn't dangle between their legs." -- Critical Women
Posted Jul 17, 2008
 
Mamma Mia! (2008)53%
 N/A  
"There's a neat free spirit versus family values message here, about a dad being no big deal when you can have three. Not to mention that family is more about who loves you, than whatever does or doesn't dangle between their legs." -- Critical Women

Posted Jul 16, 2008
 
The Dark Knight (2008)95%
 N/A  
"Canary Review: With the Tokyo sarin gas subway attacks as allegory, this is a searing indictment of a society that may have lost sight of adult responsibility for their youth, its most precious human resources." -- Baret News
Posted Jul 15, 2008
 
Canary Season (1993)n/a
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jul 13, 2008
 
The Counterfeiters (2008)94%
 N/A  
"I am proud of this film and I hope you will all go to see it. I said yes to the project because..every week in the U.S. we put 1,000 new people behind bars, yet we have the highest crime rate in the world. We are breeding criminals.' - Peace, Val Kilmer" -- Critical Women
Posted Jul 13, 2008
 
Felon (2008)59%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jul 13, 2008
 
Nim's Island (2008)49%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jul 12, 2008
 
Mardi Gras: Made in China (2005)68%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jul 12, 2008
 
Penelope (2008)52%
 N/A  
"Abigail's older brother Spencer Breslin, does his own magnificent Little Mister Sunshine leading boy thing. Harold, a kinder, gentler Superbad minus the talking dirty teen motormouths. Move over, Judd Apatow." -- Long Island Press
Posted Jul 12, 2008
 
Harold (2008)25%
 N/A  
"Sex, Class and Ho Daddies: The criminalization of sexually abused ghetto girls in scathing documentary." -- Black Fem Lens
Posted Jul 12, 2008
 
Very Young Girls (2008)70%
 N/A  
"Like Ramin Bahrini's coffee and donuts dirge, Man Push Cart, this tragic immigrant tale humanizes those most invisible in our midst, and with a kinship among workers that nourishes their will to endure and overcome. Take Out splendidly delivers." -- Long Island Press
Posted Jul 12, 2008
 
Take Out (2008)100%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jul 12, 2008
 
Shine a Light (2008)86%
 N/A  
"There's a neat free spirit versus family values message here, about a dad being no big deal when you can have three. Not to mention that family is more about who loves you, than whatever does or doesn't dangle between their legs." -- Long Island Press
Posted Jul 10, 2008
 
Mamma Mia! (2008)53%
 N/A  
"A procession of anger mismanagement protagonist episodes of rude behavior with assorted unbelievably receptive babes, and a glutton-for-punishment old flame (Naomie Harris) whom he manages to re-con into bed, before she wises up all over again." -- Baret News
Posted Jul 7, 2008
 
August (2008)36%
 N/A  
"The Exiles may be said to be about everything and nothing. This radically experimental fusion of drama and documentary is a day of subtle revelations in the life of the LA inner city Native American community of Bunker Hill back then." -- Baret News
Posted Jul 5, 2008
 
The Exiles (1990)n/a
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jul 5, 2008
 
Chronicles of an Exorcism (2007)n/a
 N/A  
"That ranting, beer guzzling gym body and incidental baby daddy with castrated horns and receding hairline, goes toe to toe at hyper-decibel noise rackets with assorted nightmarish creatures too numerous too mention in a mere movie review." -- NewsBlaze
Posted Jul 5, 2008
 
Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)87%
 N/A  
"Many of the engaging scenes can be enjoyed the old fashioned way, minus the special effects glasses, simply for the sheer infusion of wacky humor and that playful force of personality Fraser provides. Who knew science fiction and comedy could reactivate J" -- NewsBlaze
Posted Jul 5, 2008
 
Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008)60%
 N/A  
"Many of the engaging scenes can be enjoyed the old fashioned way, minus the 3D glasses, simply for the sheer infusion of wacky humor and that playful force of personality Fraser provides. Who knew science fiction and comedy could reactivate Jules Verne." -- Baret News
Posted Jul 5, 2008
 
Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008)60%
 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." -- Baret News
Posted Jul 4, 2008
 
Sleepwalking (2008)19%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jul 4, 2008
 
The Bank Job (2008)78%
 N/A  
"Another tired family values tale about women who make bad parents without men around. Not to mention that wives of deployed military men don't need to struggle to make ends meet or for health insurance, the government does that. Kaphooey." -- Critical Women
Posted Jul 4, 2008
 
Kabluey (2008)86%
 N/A  
"A superhero movie with soul, a magically endowed boozer, and quirky chemistry fueled between those two dramatic heavyweights, Will Smith and Charlize Theron, who go at it like Hillary and Obama duking it out at a presidential primary." -- AfroGotham
Posted Jun 30, 2008
 
Hancock (2008)38%
 N/A  
"Sex, Class and Ho Daddies: The criminalization of sexually abused ghetto girls in scathing documentary." -- Critical Women
Posted Jun 29, 2008
 
Very Young Girls (2008)70%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jun 28, 2008
 
Vantage Point (2008)35%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jun 28, 2008
 
Drillbit Taylor (2008)26%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jun 28, 2008
 
My Blueberry Nights (2008)47%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jun 28, 2008
 
War, Inc. (2008)31%
 N/A  
"This whimsically crafted tale that manages to be simultaneously silly, surreal and wise beyond years, is a combo memory lane, reverse time travel road movie and thirtysomething boy bonding satire, plus flaky storytelling in the extreme." -- Long Island Press
Posted Jun 28, 2008
 
Full Grown Men (2008)42%
 N/A  
"Master of disguise Perry's tangled web of narrative threads range from poignant to positively awful." -- Baret News
Posted Jun 27, 2008
 
Tyler Perry's Meet the Browns (2008)31%
 N/A  
"A truth is stranger than fiction tale of despicable blue blood deeds buried in American slave roots, and touching on unspeakable cruelty, corruption, class oppression, greed, identity theft, global crime scenes, and the dismal falsification of history." -- AfroGotham
Posted Jun 27, 2008
 
Traces of the Trade: A Story from the Deep North (2008)n/a
 N/A  
"A superhero movie with soul, a magically endowed boozer, and quirky chemistry fueled between those two dramatic heavyweights, Will Smith and Charlize Theron, who go at it like Hillary and Obama duking it out at a presidential primary." -- Long Island Press
Posted Jun 27, 2008
 
Hancock (2008)38%
 N/A  
"Eco-toon romance blooms as WALL-E deposit a gift of love - a tiny plant - in EVE's, well, compartment, and rebel robot computers with much more to teach humankind than just sending emails. A Kidconvenient Truth." -- Critical Women
Posted Jun 25, 2008
 
WALL-E (2008)96%
 N/A  
"A dark fairy tale turned contemporary urban romance tossing together time zones and centuries, and animation and real humans with mixed-company kid fare. Time will tell, depending upon the zone of preference." -- Baret News
Posted Jun 25, 2008
 
Enchanted (2007)93%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jun 25, 2008
 
Be Kind Rewind (2008)68%
 N/A  
"WNYC RADIO: Like a kid let loose in a toy store, this bad boy horny guru could have used more direction, but he does impress with his driving skills atop a pachyderm, during elephant sex." -- The Takeaway
Posted Jun 24, 2008
 
The Love Guru (2008)15%
 N/A  
"Wanted shrieks along at such an unrelieved high pitch homicidal pace as the pathological protagonist passively morphs from dork to demon, however righteous, that the audience may soon start craving some of those pills that McAvoy's been popping." -- Long Island Press
Posted Jun 24, 2008
 
Wanted (2008)72%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jun 22, 2008
 
Caramel (2008)91%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jun 21, 2008
 
In Bruges (2008)80%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jun 21, 2008
 
Rails & Ties (2007)34%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jun 18, 2008
 
The Other Boleyn Girl (2008)42%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
Posted Jun 18, 2008
 
Sunflower (2005)64%
 N/A  
"This retro-espionage spoof is more giggles than satirical grit, and simply lacks the comic punch and charisma, along with the pungent Cold War flavor of the times that energized the original." -- Long Island Press
Posted Jun 18, 2008
 
Get Smart (2008)53%
 N/A  
"How likely is it that love, not to mention hot sex, can blossom between two people who've picked identical careers dedicated to punishing the rest of us? Delightfully kinky sex and the city meter maid romp." -- Baret News
Posted Jun 18, 2008
 
Expired (2008)60%
 N/A  
"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." -- Baret News
