B	"The thoughtfulness and humanity of these inmates is a potent reminder that there's almost no such thing as a lost cause." Posted May 16, 2008	The Dhamma Brothers (2008)	81%
B-	"Ultimately, it's hard not to feel like Hou is saying more explicitly and expansively in nearly two hours what Lamorisse managed to convey in only one-fourth as much film." Posted May 16, 2008	The Flight of the Red Balloon (2008)	80%
B-	"*Even though it's nearly 2 1/2 hours, unfolds in flashback and derives from Balzac, then, The Duchess of Langeais* is among Rivette's more succinct and approachable works.*" Posted May 9, 2008*	The Duchess of Langeais (2008)	68%
C+	"*The plot, as hinted, goes strictly by the How April Got Her Groove Back* book, but it must be said that the performances push it a notch above pedestrian.*" Posted May 9, 2008*	Then She Found Me (2008)	54%
D	"[A] confused, morally queasy, self-important mess." Posted May 2, 2008	The Life Before Her Eyes (2008)	22%
B	"Though it's well-cast and convincingly captures the look and feel of its era, the film loses steam as Accio's story meanders to a predictable conclusion." Posted May 2, 2008	My Brother is an Only Child (2008)	90%
B+	"Sometimes a trifling comedy can seem infinitely better when it comes packaged in a foreign language, especially French. Pierre Salvadori's Priceless, though, seems like the sort of thing that would be amusing in any tongue." Posted Apr 25, 2008	Priceless (2008)	85%
A	"The members of the Young at Heart Chorus might not offer the serpentine strutting or Bacchanalian back story of the Rolling Stones, but their vivacity, dedication and courage would give any rock idol pause." Posted Apr 25, 2008	Young@Heart (2008)	87%
C	"If [director] Schaefer's intent was to provide some sort of insight into Chapman's character, some hint of explanation for this senseless tragedy, he fails, probably because there's none to be found beyond one lonely guy's addled brain chemistry." Posted Apr 11, 2008	Chapter 27 (2008)	21%
C+	"The ensemble can't bring enough, though, to overcome the unoriginal setup and predictable story arc." Posted Apr 11, 2008	Smart People (2008)	49%
c+	"Could have been an exciting and inventive film, if only it weren't so bland and familiar." Posted Apr 4, 2008	Boarding Gate (2007)	26%
C+	"Ultimately, the movie takes its characters, and the absurd ethical dilemma it subjects them to, far too seriously." Posted Mar 28, 2008	Married Life (2008)	55%
A-	"Sam Rockwell and Kate Beckinsale are each as good as they've ever been as the central, troubled couple, and the rest of the cast also impresses." Posted Mar 28, 2008	Snow Angels (2008)	68%
A-	"A film like this remains important, both as an indictment of the present day and as a warning to future generations that the ends don't always justify the means." Posted Mar 28, 2008	Taxi to the Dark Side (2008)	100%
B-	"*In the wake of Juno* comes another movie with a plucky teen protagonist who's got a mind of her own and refuses to live in shame because of her peculiar physical condition.*" Posted Feb 29, 2008*	Penelope (2008)	53%
C+	"Charlie Bartlett desperately wants to be the next link in a chain of smart, subversive, fun teen-rebellion movies from Ferris Bueller's Day Off to Juno. But it never develops its own identity enough to stake that claim." Posted Feb 22, 2008	Charlie Bartlett (2007)	53%
B+	"*Romero's zombie films are notable for their embedded social commentary. Diary* is no exception.*" Posted Feb 15, 2008*	George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead (2008)	60%
b	"If the film's release brings more attention to this potential cult classic, then it's done its job." Posted Feb 8, 2008	Trailer Park Boys - The Movie (2008)	56%
B-	"An uplifting, visually pleasing documentary." Posted Jan 25, 2008	War Dance (2007)	86%
	"All this star power goes for naught in Traeger's film, which tries to blend bucolic sweetness with juvenile let's-make-a-porno jokes." Posted Jan 18, 2008	The Amateurs (2007)	14%
A-	"As if more proof were needed that the best way to make a scary movie is through atmosphere, pacing and storytelling, rather than sudden violence, needless gore and random shocks, here comes The Orphanage." Posted Jan 11, 2008	The Orphanage (2007)	85%
B-	"*Solid, CliffsNotes* version of a modern classic.*" Posted Nov 16, 2007*	Love in the Time of Cholera (2007)	27%
C-	"Talky, didactic and essentially free of any real narrative..." Posted Nov 9, 2007	Lions for Lambs (2007)	28%
C+	"Viewers with a pre-established interest in 11th-century Tibetan history should find Milarepa fascinating, but those without won't find much to engage them in this nicely shot but stilted biopic of a legendary magician-turned-monk from that era." Posted Nov 2, 2007	Milarepa (2007)	36%
B+	"When it lets its characters express their universal youthful ennui through hook-laden tunes with clever lyrics, it works. The 'let's-put-on-a-show' attitude is a welcome relief from the navel gazing typical of coming-of-age." Posted Oct 26, 2007	Colma: The Musical (2007)	90%
B+	"Angels in the Dust shows that compassion is a form of bravery." Posted Oct 19, 2007	Angels in the Dust (2007)	82%
C+	"The sets and costumes are elaborate Oscar bait, though the excess of candles sometimes makes things resemble an old Police video." Posted Oct 12, 2007	Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007)	34%
B-	"Theroux shoots and edits creatively, and elicits good performances, so here's hoping he gets another crack behind the camera with a more cohesive and consistent script." Posted Oct 5, 2007	Dedication (2007)	41%
B	"This is comfort food, plain and simple, and achieves its modest goals in nearly effortless fashion." Posted Sep 28, 2007	The Jane Austen Book Club (2007)	64%
B-	"The Kingdom wants to be both a hot-button, ripped-from-the-headlines statement movie and a crowd-pleasing, rip-roaring action thriller. It ends up meeting each goal about halfway." Posted Sep 28, 2007	The Kingdom (2007)	51%
	"...the subject matter of fugitive war criminals in the former Yugoslavia doesn't mix well." Posted Sep 21, 2007	The Hunting Party (2007)	52%
A-	"This was a story that made front pages in its day but has been largely lost to history, and now is brought bracingly and compellingly back to life." Posted Sep 21, 2007	Deep Water (2007)	96%
A-	"Is it a religious allegory? Political statement? Horror film? Perhaps all three, perhaps none." Posted Sep 21, 2007	The Bothersome Man (2007)	70%
C-	"The passionate Mexican interlude, the Shakespearean pleas to yonder windows, and the naive, earnest pillow talk all melt into one self-indulgent, faux-hipstery soup." Posted Sep 14, 2007	The Hottest State (2006)	35%
B+	"Burtynsky avoids any political content to his work, but it's hard not to feel anxious and sad at the spectacle of the rapid industrialization and urbanization of the world's most populous nation." Posted Sep 7, 2007	Manufactured Landscapes (2007)	84%
A-	"It serves as Milepost 1 on Van Sant's highway to success." Posted Sep 7, 2007	Mala Noche (1985)	94%
C	"While there's the requisite "you can make a difference" section toward the end, you'll still likely walk out with a sense of impending doom, which may be fully appropriate but probably not what the filmmakers intended." Posted Aug 31, 2007	The 11th Hour (2007)	66%
B+	"This sounds like the sort of thing that could bore to tears anyone not enamored of the musical theater, but in fact it's a compelling, often amusing look backstage." Posted Aug 31, 2007	ShowBusiness: The Road to Broadway (2007)	88%
B	"It turns out that a deep appreciation of the human condition can be accomplished through comedy as much as through drama. At least that's what Moliere learns" Posted Aug 24, 2007	Moliere (2007)	70%
B	"The movie's a trifle, but an amusing one, especially for Woody Allen fans and other neurotics." Posted Aug 24, 2007	2 Days In Paris (2007)	87%
A-	"*For all his talk of 'harmless' comedy, it's clear that von Trier is capable of no such thing. The beauty of The Boss of It All* is that it can be viewed through a variety of prisms...*" Posted Aug 17, 2007*	The Boss of it All (2007)	73%
B+	"The point of [Ferguson's] film seems to be that even though the invasion was unnecessary and wrong, it still could have turned out much better than it has, and he tries to pinpoint key errors during the first weeks and months after March 2003." Posted Aug 10, 2007	No End in Sight (2007)	94%
C	"More than two decades ago, Forman gave us Amadeus, a portrait of the historical artist that both captured a time and made its people seem real and recognizable. On that second point, the new film falls far short." Posted Aug 3, 2007	Goya's Ghosts (2007)	28%
B	"The subject matter is certainly American enough." Posted Aug 3, 2007	Interview (2007)	57%
B-	"[McAvoy is] perfectly fine as the prickly metropolitan exiled to the provinces after a dust-up at a London law school." Posted Aug 3, 2007	Becoming Jane (2007)	57%
B+	"A vibrant feel for its era and a genuine affection for its characters make the whole thing a solid evocation of a time and a life worth remembering." Posted Jul 27, 2007	Talk to Me (2007)	81%
B+	"For grown-ups who can let the story wash over them without asking too many questions, it's a treat." Posted Jul 27, 2007	Tekkon Kinkreet (2007)	72%
C+	"From a director known for his obsession with obsessions, it's an unfortunate smoothing out." Posted Jul 27, 2007	Rescue Dawn (2007)	90%
