	"... here there's also an undercurrent of biblical revenge that lends the narrative a sense of violent menace and an almost continuous tension." Posted Jun 6, 2008	Shotgun Stories (2007)	89%
	"There's enough special effects razzle-dazzle to distract the average ten-year-old, but the script by William Osborne and Michael McCullers is stilted and humorless -- a little camp might have helped." Posted May 18, 2008	Thunderbirds (2004)	19%
	"Like so much of Herzog's work, both narrative and documentary, this is an engrossing look at obsessive behavior gone terribly awry." Posted Apr 29, 2008	Grizzly Man (2005)	93%
	"*Pairing Jackie Chan and Jet Li would seem like a slam dunk, but this big-budget martial arts drama, which borrows liberally from The Wizard of Oz, is something of a disappointment." Posted Apr 18, 2008*	The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)	63%
	"This accomplished and economical debut feature (2006) is refreshingly free of gimmicks, focusing squarely on the hero's awkward attempts to forge a relationship with the petulant teenager." Posted Apr 11, 2008	The Favor (2008)	39%
	"Filmmakers Ricki Stern and Anne Sundberg chronicle his burgeoning activism in the face of the U.S. government's indifference as the government of Sudan works systematically to eradicate black Africans from the region." Posted Jan 4, 2008	The Devil Came On Horseback (2007)	98%
	"First-time directors David Moreau and Xavier Palud have crafted a highly effective horror film that combines a plausible narrative with accomplished use of sound and image." Posted Jan 3, 2008	Them (2007)	63%
	"Director Griffin Dunne, working from Dirk Wittenborn's adaptation of his own novel, pounds away at the analogy between the inherent cruelty of the tribal rituals of the Iskanani and those of the well-heeled." Posted Dec 3, 2007	Fierce People (2007)	24%
	"This graphically violent film suffers from cursorily developed characters whose primary function is to advance the creaky plot." Posted Dec 3, 2007	Death Sentence (2007)	17%
	"Actor Justin Theroux makes an impressive directorial debut, aided by David Bromberg's mordantly funny dialogue." Posted Oct 5, 2007	Dedication (2007)	41%
	"John Goodman has a nice turn as a queen with a heart of gold." Posted Sep 28, 2007	Freshman Orientation (2007)	33%
	"Though familiar as an old shoe, this is straightforward and well told." Posted Sep 21, 2007	December Boys (2007)	42%
	"While the film's premise is shamelessly hokey and Joe Nussbaum's direction is at best pedestrian, props are due the young cast, especially Bynes, whose can-do optimism seems genuine if ultimately overdone." Posted Sep 21, 2007	Sydney White (2007)	37%
	"Francois Girard's adaptation of Alessandro Baricco's novel is a visually arresting period piece, set in the 1860s, that addresses memory and loss." Posted Sep 14, 2007	Silk (2007)	8%
	"Under Craig Gillespie's uninspired direction, the humor eventually settles into stale, familiar pratfalls." Posted Sep 14, 2007	Mr. Woodcock (2007)	13%
	"Kim keeps dialogue to a minimum and provides the barest of story arcs, using a handheld camera to probe subtle shifts of emotion in her nonprofessional actors." Posted Sep 7, 2007	In Between Days (2006)	84%
	"Osmond and Rothwell's depiction of his unraveling is an exquisitely structured drama." Posted Sep 7, 2007	Deep Water (2007)	96%
	"The TV show was mildly subversive, with humor that children and adults could enjoy on different levels, but the movie strives for a blander, family-oriented middle ground." Posted Aug 6, 2007	Underdog (2007)	14%
	"Boyle's spiritual and metaphysical musings intertwine neatly with his pop sensibility, imbuing this with an art-house intelligence without diluting its summer blockbuster appeal." Posted Jul 20, 2007	Sunshine (2007)	75%
	"In Shonali Bose's tightly constructed debut feature (2005) a young Indian-American woman from Los Angeles returns to Delhi for the first time since childhood to visit her relatives." Posted May 25, 2007	Amu (2005)	76%
	"*As in the first movie, To deftly references the Godfather* trilogy, examining the moral equivocation and shifting alliances among various syndicate members.*" Posted Apr 24, 2007*	Triad Election (2007)	96%
	"Set in a decaying industrial town in downstate Illinois, writer-director Brian Jun's gritty first feature is a heartfelt portrait of a fractured working-class family." Posted Mar 7, 2007	Steel City (2006)	86%
	"This is geared toward the preteen set, but director Marcos Siega proves inept at executing the most basic dramatic and comedic setups, and Cannon's mugging and preening quickly grow tiresome." Posted Mar 6, 2007	Underclassman (2005)	8%
	"A melancholy look at a hybrid culture on the verge of major change." Posted Feb 9, 2007	Isabella (2006)	n/a
	"Like the drive-in classics of Roger Corman and Samuel Z. Arkoff, this develops the principal characters and conflicts with just enough depth and keeps the narrative moving at a brisk pace." Posted Jan 8, 2007	Supercross: The Movie (2005)	5%
	"This computer-animated baseball adventure espouses a shopworn moral about persevering against long odds, but there's still plenty to recommend it, including memorable characters, solid storytelling, and accurate period detail." Posted Sep 15, 2006	Everyone's Hero (2006)	40%
	"[A] melancholy drama about the aftermath of a senseless murder." Posted Mar 30, 2006	Beautiful City (2006)	89%
	"While Cazeneuve's story is about gay love, it also charts universal truths about adolescent romance and high school politics with great aplomb." Posted Apr 17, 2004	You'll Get Over It (2002)	63%
	"It's a haunting portrait of a young man who, while genuinely gifted and loved by friends and family, couldn't cope with the world." Posted Jan 10, 2004	A Skin Too Few: The Days of Nick Drake (2004)	100%
