3/4	"An amused and affectionate look at the writer who formed a crucial link between the New Journalism of the 1960s and today's blogosphere." -- Globe and Mail Posted Jul 18, 2008	Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson (2008)	86%
2.5/4	"It's kind of sweet, innocent almost -- kid-friendly in the best sense." -- Globe and Mail Posted Jul 11, 2008	Meet Dave (2008)	21%
2.5/4	"It's a howl and amazement for anyone under 12. As is often the way with middling kids' movies, parents who grow tired of the film are treated to a satisfying consolation prize: watching their children have fun." -- Globe and Mail Posted Jun 6, 2008	Kung Fu Panda (2008)	88%
2/4	"Too much of the...film is bombast and street noise." -- Globe and Mail Posted May 23, 2008	This Beautiful City (2008)	n/a
No Rating	Click here to read article -- CBC.ca Arts Posted May 20, 2008	Neil Young - Heart of Gold (2006)	90%
3.5/4	"For all its fuss and fury, Flight of the Red Balloon succeeds magnificently, providing not only an artful homage to Lamorisse's Academy Award-winning short, but also a weightlessly floating tour of the French capital." -- Globe and Mail Posted May 16, 2008	The Flight of the Red Balloon (2008)	78%
3/4	"*Few movies have captured the intoxicating effect of pop culture on kids better than Son of Rambow." -- Globe and Mail* Posted May 9, 2008	Son of Rambow (2008)	75%
2/4	"Helen Hunt deserves better." -- Globe and Mail Posted Apr 25, 2008	Then She Found Me (2008)	54%
1.5/4	"*An accountant's sex fantasy, Deception* is the story of an audit gone deliciously bad.*" -- Globe and Mail* Posted Apr 25, 2008	Deception (2008)	11%
2/4	"That Ellroy delivers a crude, undistinguished script here is a pity." -- Globe and Mail Posted Apr 10, 2008	Street Kings (2008)	36%
2.5/4	"*If Under the Same Moon* is formula melodrama, the film is well acted and its lead character perceptively drawn.*" -- Globe and Mail* Posted Apr 4, 2008	Under the Same Moon (2008)	73%
2.5/4	"*Though a presentation of 20th Century Fox, Shutter* has the look and feel of a proper J-horror film.*" -- Globe and Mail* Posted Mar 24, 2008	Shutter (2008)	7%
2.5/4	"The Duchess of Langeais benefits from many New Wave innovations -- long, fluid takes and loosely organized improvisational scenes. Still, it feels like a curiously static entertainment." -- Globe and Mail Posted Mar 21, 2008	The Duchess of Langeais (2008)	67%
1/4	"Never, not even in the aftermath of Pearl Harbor, has Hollywood depicted Asians with more prejudice. To what end?" -- Globe and Mail Posted Jan 25, 2008	Rambo (2008)	35%
	"Frequently gorgeous, occasionally dull, always fascinating." -- Globe and Mail Posted Jan 18, 2008	War and Peace (1968)	100%
2/4	"By the end of the movie, even the Chipmunks' youngest fans will find themselves wishing that Alvin and the boys would get back to where they once belonged: a tree." -- Globe and Mail Posted Dec 14, 2007	Alvin and the Chipmunks (2007)	25%
3/4	"Enchanted manages the trick of recasting sugar spun Disney fairy tales of old into a winning, modern-day comedy. Walt Disney would be impressed." -- Globe and Mail Posted Nov 21, 2007	Enchanted (2007)	93%
2/4	"*Admirers of Gabriel Garcia Marquez's novel Love in the Time of Cholera* will be heartbroken to see how dull translators have drained the magic from his worldly romance.*" -- Globe and Mail* Posted Nov 16, 2007	Love in the Time of Cholera (2007)	27%
2/4	"Darfur Now is effective pamphleteering, but only an occasionally compelling documentary film." -- Globe and Mail Posted Nov 9, 2007	Darfur Now (2007)	69%
2/4	"Fred Claus ends up closer in spirit to Eugene O'Neill than it is to Dr. Seuss." -- Globe and Mail Posted Nov 9, 2007	Fred Claus (2007)	22%
1/4	"*The original Saw* was crafted with thought and precision. Saw IV is an orgy of blood.*" -- Globe and Mail* Posted Oct 29, 2007	Saw IV (2007)	19%
2.5/4	"*Fortunately for first-time director Alison Eastwood, Rails & Ties* is populated by three sensitive actors who tread carefully through Micky Levy's anachronistic script.*" -- Globe and Mail* Posted Oct 26, 2007	Rails & Ties (2007)	34%
2/4	"*Though elegantly staged, Silk* is badly written and indifferently cast.*" -- Globe and Mail* Posted Sep 28, 2007	Silk (2007)	8%
1.5/4	"Thornton never cracks a smile... His gloom is infectious." -- Globe and Mail Posted Sep 14, 2007	Mr. Woodcock (2007)	13%
3/4	"A sour, disenchanted war comedy that affects a breezy style, The Hunting Party was originally called Spring Break in Bosnia." -- Globe and Mail Posted Sep 14, 2007	The Hunting Party (2007)	51%
1/4	"The film is another example of how talented TV performers often lose their way in movies." -- Globe and Mail Posted Sep 7, 2007	The Brothers Solomon (2007)	16%
2/4	"The results can be messy." -- Globe and Mail Posted Sep 7, 2007	Hatchet (2007)	46%
2/4	"*There is no wisdom or critical acumen in evidence in Shoot 'Em Up, however. Just 100 or so cool scenes masquerading as a movie." -- Globe and Mail* Posted Sep 7, 2007	Shoot 'Em Up (2007)	66%
2/4	"There is no getting around that the film is as dry as an unpaved country road." -- Globe and Mail Posted Sep 6, 2007	All Hat (2007)	20%
No Rating	Click here to read article -- CBC.ca Arts Posted Aug 31, 2007	Forever Young (1992)	60%
2/4	"The film steals one of the best laughs of Jon Heder's surprise 2004 hit, the scene where Napoleon nosedives over a bicycle jump, and stretches the gag into an 86-minute movie." -- Globe and Mail Posted Aug 3, 2007	Hot Rod (2007)	39%
2.5/4	"It lets you off dizzy and confused, whereas the best documentaries leave you feeling that you've come to a settled perspective on a subject." -- Globe and Mail Posted Aug 3, 2007	Your Mommy Kills Animals (2007)	91%
2/4	"An unconvincing replica of the dizzy situation comedies that Hollywood poured out in double and triple bills in the thirties and forties (and went on making in the guise of TV sitcoms well into the nineties)." -- Globe and Mail Posted Jul 27, 2007	My Best Friend (2007)	75%
3/4	"Here's hoping Lars von Trier's retirement will be brief. Cinema needs meddlesome provocateurs. An occasional stone in the shoe keeps us alert." -- Globe and Mail Posted Jul 13, 2007	The Boss of it All (2007)	73%
2/4	"Is it possible to get mad at a film that has its heart and soul in the right place?" -- Globe and Mail Posted Jun 8, 2007	Screamers (2006)	66%
1/4	"Most TV wrestling matches are better scripted than The Condemned." -- Globe and Mail Posted Apr 27, 2007	The Condemned (2007)	15%
1/4	"Careers are funny, unpredictable things, and Ice Cube wouldn't be the first charismatic, threatening entertainer to don a chastity belt for a safe ride in Hollywood. Think Elvis Presley or Eddie Murphy." -- Globe and Mail Posted Apr 4, 2007	Are We Done Yet? (2007)	8%
2.5/4	"*Like most modern action films, Shooter* is too explicit, more interested in mayhem than motive.*" -- Globe and Mail* Posted Mar 23, 2007	Shooter (2007)	47%
2/4	"When we get to the top of the roller coaster, the film stalls and slows down." -- Globe and Mail Posted Mar 16, 2007	Premonition (2007)	8%
1/4	"The result is a 105-minute cringe-a-thon that reduces the Katharine Hepburn of her generation to a sitcom harpy presiding over a brood of Valley Girl chicks." -- Globe and Mail Posted Feb 2, 2007	Because I Said So (2007)	5%
1.5/4	"Heavier than an anvil, more bleak than a foghorn's call ..." -- Globe and Mail Posted Jan 26, 2007	Mount Pleasant (2007)	n/a
3/4	"Alpha Dog is a commanding ensemble piece." -- Globe and Mail Posted Jan 12, 2007	Alpha Dog (2007)	55%
2.5/4	"An entirely serviceable night out for buddies looking to locate hidden feelings." -- Globe and Mail Posted Dec 22, 2006	We Are Marshall (2006)	48%
1.5/4	"*Why bother suffering through 90 minutes of bad company for a few moments of holiday cheer? Especially when you can still stay home alone and watch A Charlie Brown Christmas* somewhere on TV.*" -- Globe and Mail* Posted Dec 8, 2006	Unaccompanied Minors (2006)	27%
No Rating	Click here to read article -- CBC.ca Arts Posted Nov 4, 2006	A Simple Curve (2006)	60%
	"*What makes Match Point, a coolly deliberate murder mystery from Woody Allen, so startling is that it feels as if the director himself has been done away with." -- CBC.ca Arts* Posted Nov 4, 2006	Match Point (2005)	77%
	"At no time does the film turn into a satisfying mystery where the audience feels compelled to guess along with our racing detectives." -- CBC.ca Arts Posted Nov 4, 2006	The Black Dahlia (2006)	35%
