4/5	"Funny and sweet and guaranteed to flood you with good feeling." -- Austin Chronicle Posted May 16, 2008	Son of Rambow (2008)	77%
1/5	"You can take what happens in Vegas, keep it in Vegas, and keep the rest of the us out of it." -- Austin Chronicle Posted May 8, 2008	What Happens in Vegas (2008)	29%
1.5/5	"The script can veer from mean-spirited to uncomfortably blue." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Apr 30, 2008	Made of Honor (2008)	12%
2.5/5	"My Blueberry Nights can be sexy as hell, but for the first time in a Wong film, I felt duped for being so easily seduced." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Apr 25, 2008	My Blueberry Nights (2008)	49%
2/4	"Alexander's script considers context anathema, leaving us to wonder, among other puzzlers, why these two jerks are friends to begin with � and, perhaps, on what bad breakup or neglected childhood one may blame the film's dispiriting misanthropy." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Apr 11, 2008	Backseat (2008)	8%
3/5	"It's awfully agreeable -- so why doesn�t it entirely work?" -- Austin Chronicle Posted Apr 3, 2008	Leatherheads (2008)	53%
2/5	"*Anyone hoping for the lean meat of the fast, furious, and riotously funny Shaun of the Dead* or even the popcorn fancy of the lesser Hot Fuzz will do best to look elsewhere.*" -- Austin Chronicle* Posted Mar 27, 2008	Run, Fat Boy, Run (2008)	48%
3/5	"An intriguing historical document, not attempting a completist portrait of Carter but rather a series of candids." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Mar 20, 2008	Jimmy Carter Man From Plains (2007)	79%
2.5/5	"When you�re maybe just about ready to fully endorse the film, it gives in to some generic romantic-comedy frippery that punctures a hole in its own believability." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Feb 14, 2008	Definitely, Maybe (2008)	72%
2/4	"*Less twisty than its 2004 predecessor and yet somehow more incoherent, National Treasure: Book of Secrets* plays like a duplicate schematic of the first.*" -- Austin Chronicle* Posted Feb 1, 2008	National Treasure 2 : Book of Secrets (2007)	32%
0/5	"To devote an entire feature film to making fun of another film's universally acknowledged gay subtext seems to me good cause for said filmmakers to have a sit-down with their muse, because somebody's been sleeping on the job." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Feb 1, 2008	Meet the Spartans (2008)	2%
3/5	"How She Move, which screened at last year's Sundance, wears its low budget on its sleeve; the upshot is a cast of unknowns who are naturals." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Jan 23, 2008	How She Move (2008)	68%
2.5/5	"I have seen the future, and it looks like TBS. Maybe TNT. I predict a happy union between 27 Dresses and cable TV, forever rerunning with commercial breaks tailor-made for laundry-loading and sandwich-making." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Jan 18, 2008	27 Dresses (2008)	39%
3.5/4	"An indie comedy that uplifts � funny and smart, totally trying to be cool and succeeding, and heartfelt to boot." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Dec 21, 2007	Juno (2007)	93%
2/5	"This is a visually and emotionally soft affair, and the material calls for something with far sharper edges." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Dec 21, 2007	Charlie Wilson's War (2007)	83%
4/5	"Imagination typically should be encouraged in children, but an excess of it leads to tragedy in this more than worthy adaptation of Ian McEwan's 2002 novel." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Dec 14, 2007	Atonement (2007)	82%
3/5	"There�s plenty here to hang a franchise on." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Dec 6, 2007	The Golden Compass (2007)	42%
3.5/5	"Haynes's warmest film yet. The thing is infused with love -- not the slavish kind, but a true-eyed tribute to the artist who belongs to nobody and everybody at once." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Nov 21, 2007	I'm Not There (2007)	78%
	"The film's primary function seems to be in lensing the banalities of everyday living. To that end, the film is successful; in providing illumination to those banalities, one will have to look elsewhere." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Aug 21, 2007	Kissing on the Mouth (2005)	40%
4/5	"A near-perfect relationship-trauma comedy. It�s ragged in all the right ways, just like the way we love and wake up to the realization that that love has gone sour." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Jun 24, 2006	The Puffy Chair (2006)	76%
3/5	"It is pretty, and it stays just left of the dial of darlingness, and Cornish's is the most goddamn, gosh-wow debut I've seen in years." -- Austin Chronicle Posted May 27, 2006	Somersault (2006)	82%
1/5	"Spiritual epiphany is tough to convey onscreen, and near impossible in the hands of wooden actors." -- Austin Chronicle Posted May 20, 2006	The Celestine Prophecy (2006)	5%
3.5/5	"It isn�t an easy film, but the world�s already got plenty of easy and easily digestible films. Nervy and confounding pictures, however, we could use more of." -- Austin Chronicle Posted May 6, 2006	Room (2005)	69%
3.5/5	"Considering Holofcener�s expanded canvas and the film�s relatively short running time, it�s a wonder these characters feel so fully formed (not to mention near and dear)." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Apr 21, 2006	Friends With Money (2006)	71%
2/5	"A watered-down likeness that curiously turns disaster flick in its too-scary third act." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Apr 8, 2006	Ice Age: The Meltdown (2006)	56%
3.5/5	"By all accounts, Sterne�s novel is nutty and ribald and utterly defiant of conventional storytelling techniques � hence this adaptation�s wonderfully meta take." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Apr 1, 2006	Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story (2006)	90%
0/5	"Jovovich, who�s shown sensitivity in her dramatic work, looks spectacularly bored as she power-kicks her way through one bloody pile-up after another. That boredom, like the mystery virus at the center of the film, is contagious." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Mar 25, 2006	Ultraviolet (2006)	8%
	"Live Free or Die -- opens and closes zippily, but in between frequently stalls out, and the wannabe-hoodlum antics of Rugged and LaGrand -- play with diminishing returns." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Mar 24, 2006	Live Free or Die (2007)	47%
	"The causality here is somewhat thin -- any time one story really gets cooking, we're jettisoned to another -- but the ensemble cast does good work, and the location becomes a character unto itself." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Mar 23, 2006	Things that Hang from Trees (2006)	n/a
2.5/5	Click here to read article -- Austin Chronicle Posted Mar 4, 2006	The Blue Butterfly (2004)	38%
4/5	"Deftly mixing talking-head interviews, archival footage, and sly musical cues, Ballets Russes impressively catalogues 30 years of the companies� triumphs and failures, and does so in a way that a dance neophyte can easily absorb ..." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Mar 4, 2006	Ballets Russes (2005)	91%
3/5	"Something New, in its endearingly daft third act, manages the neat feat of feeling sweetly inevitable rather than boilerplate predictable." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Feb 11, 2006	Something New (2006)	61%
2.5/5	"Glory Road really isn�t a bad show � it�s just an obvious one � and one wishes material of this historical import had received a more refined rendering." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Jan 15, 2006	Glory Road (2006)	56%
1/5	"When a war is going down, why are the king and his fiercest lieutenants taking a time-out to attend to the lovesick?" -- Austin Chronicle Posted Jan 12, 2006	Tristan & Isolde (2006)	32%
3.5/5	"Certain characters and their particular pains become so engrossing in their 10-minute bits that it's sad to see them go." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Jan 8, 2006	Nine Lives (2005)	75%
2.5/5	"*I�ve little doubt that Swicord and Marshall have produced an accurate account of the geisha lifestyle, but I�m not sure that it feels like a terribly authentic* one.*" -- Austin Chronicle* Posted Dec 31, 2005	Memoirs of a Geisha (2005)	35%
3/5	"There are just too many damn characters, with the best ones taking a backseat to the dullish love quadrangle." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Dec 18, 2005	The Family Stone (2005)	53%
2.5/5	"This is a Hallmark movie with high production values -- and so what? It�s gently funny and genuinely good-hearted." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Dec 6, 2005	Christmas in the Clouds (2005)	69%
4/5	"*It�s the sort of film that�s bound to be labeled modest,* but it packs a hefty emotional wallop.*" -- Austin Chronicle* Posted Dec 6, 2005	The Squid and the Whale (2005)	94%
2/5	"This is second-rate Hallstr�m, drama plus whimsy that, when rubbed together, creates not friction and fire, but a nubbing-down of both elements." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Dec 6, 2005	Bee Season (2005)	41%
3.5/5	"[Hoffman's] performance is undeniably great. Everything else -- solid, satisfying though it may be -- falls short of that greatness." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Oct 30, 2005	Capote (2005)	91%
0/5	"Frequently offensive and doggedly disgusting." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Oct 29, 2005	Waiting... (2005)	31%
3.5/5	Click here to read article -- Austin Chronicle Posted Oct 15, 2005	Thumbsucker (2005)	71%
2.5/5	"The Greatest Game never thrills on an emotional level the way the best of sports films -- a Hoosiers, say -- can, but it�s a satisfying entertainment nonetheless." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Oct 2, 2005	The Greatest Game Ever Played (2005)	62%
2.5/5	Click here to read article -- Austin Chronicle Posted Oct 2, 2005	The Adventures of Felix (2001)	69%
3.5/5	"*Evinces the kind of swashbuckling bonhomie that made so many of us fall in love with the original Star Wars* films, a love that was mightily tested by George Lucas� humorless prequels.*" -- Austin Chronicle* Posted Oct 2, 2005	Serenity (2005)	82%
4.5/5	"A riot of sight and sound that, however baffling, has an irresistible, elemental pull." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Sep 24, 2005	2046 (2005)	84%
2.5/5	"Showalter�s Elliot, self-described as the kind of guy who gets hay fever just raking the leaves, never breaks out of the Baxter clich�. Frankly, he makes a pretty good case for why the sad sack never gets the girl." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Sep 18, 2005	The Baxter (2005)	30%
4/5	"The sum is something deeply profound: about awkwardness, culture clash, failed connections, and -- ultimately -- the strength that comes from surviving a trial by fire." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Sep 4, 2005	Junebug (2005)	87%
0.5/5	"Simpson steals the show -- which, admittedly, isn�t saying much considering her stiffest competition comes by way of a skateboarding bulldog." -- Austin Chronicle Posted Sep 4, 2005	Undiscovered (2005)	6%
