4/5	"Merchant/Ivory with a fastidious political viewpoint" -- Filmcritic.com Posted Jul 25, 2008	Brideshead Revisited (2008)	71%
3.5/5	"*It's hard to deny how absolutely hilarious Step Brothers* really is. You may feel guilty as Hell for laughing at it, but it definitely does earn its cheap and childish giggles*" -- PopMatters* Posted Jul 25, 2008	Step Brothers (2008)	52%
3/5	"*In a summer that's seen its fair share of outsized spectacle, everything about X-Files: I Want to Believe* is somber, subdued, and in the end rather minor.*" -- PopMatters* Posted Jul 25, 2008	The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008)	32%
5/5	"*Like a symphony where every note is exactly where it needs to be, or a painting without a brushstroke wasted, The Dark Knight* is an unabashed, unashamedly great film.*" -- PopMatters* Posted Jul 18, 2008	The Dark Knight (2008)	95%
3/5	"flash-foiled by motion picture incompetence" -- Filmcritic.com Posted Jul 17, 2008	Mamma Mia! (2008)	53%
1.5/5	"consistently goes for the cheap laughs, mining way too many jokes out of puns, pratfalls, and the occasional reference to poop (these are apes, after all)" -- Filmcritic.com Posted Jul 17, 2008	Space Chimps (2008)	37%
3.5/5	"*With its amazing bug footage, and psychobabble scripting, it's The Hellstrom Chronicle* (an obvious influence) taken into Twilight Zone territory*" -- PopMatters* Posted Jul 12, 2008	Phase IV (1973)	n/a
3/5	"*As it chugs along like a novice marathon runner aware of its inability to win the race, Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D* does nothing to dissuade us from its earnest need to entertain.*" -- PopMatters* Posted Jul 11, 2008	Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008)	60%
5/5	"This is big screen fantasy as a wish fulfillment free for all, a far out fairytale told in the most intricate of celluloid calligraphy." -- PopMatters Posted Jul 11, 2008	Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)	87%
2/5	"only first-trimester zygotes will find this funny" -- Filmcritic.com Posted Jul 10, 2008	Meet Dave (2008)	21%
4/5	"The Doomsday Machine marks a MST3K Season 4 level challenge. At one point, Frank Conniff states exasperatedly that this experience is like 'watching someone else watching Manos: The Hands of Fate'." -- PopMatters Posted Jul 3, 2008	The Doomsday Machine (1967)	n/a
2.5/5	"The Children of Huang Shi is so desperate to be the Asian Schindler's List, an example of atrocity draped in abject artistry, that it forgets to lay out the context." -- PopMatters Posted Jul 1, 2008	The Children of Huang Shi (2008)	26%
3/5	"Hancock is either a brilliant disaster or an often uneven masterwork." -- PopMatters Posted Jul 1, 2008	Hancock (2008)	38%
5/5	"WALLE* announces yet another massive leap in technological talent for the fabled filmmakers, a textural, tactile quality that continues to push CG 3D into uncharted artistic arenas." -- PopMatters Posted Jun 27, 2008	WALL-E (2008)	96%
4/5	"In some ways, Standard Operating Procedure is too appalling to appreciate. It's like watching the Nuremberg Trials, Nazis purposefully passing the buck higher and higher up, fully aware that no one above a certain rank is around to take the blame." -- PopMatters Posted Jun 26, 2008	Standard Operating Procedure (2008)	78%
4.5/5	"*"...if they're not careful, those Marvel superheroes better watch out. Wanted* could usurp their position as 2008's best popcorn escape.*" -- PopMatters* Posted Jun 26, 2008	Wanted (2008)	72%
2/5	"*In a current comedy climate where such scant superficiality just won't cut it, Get Smart* is nothing but shallow.*" -- PopMatters* Posted Jun 19, 2008	Get Smart (2008)	53%
3.5/5	"Built out of the 'asshole as hero' mode of amusement...The Foot Fist Way is a collection of contradictory ideals gelling effortlessly into a smart, savvy whole." -- PopMatters Posted Jun 19, 2008	The Foot Fist Way (2008)	58%
2/5	"Quick -- name three subjects you think would result in a surefire family film hit. If you said The Great Depression, hobo culture, and the social pariah realities of both, you'll love this movie." -- Filmcritic.com Posted Jun 19, 2008	Kit Kittredge: An American Girl (2008)	80%
1.5/5	"Somewhere, sitting in a room cluttered with Mr. Pibb cans and half-consumed bags of Funyuns is the adolescent writing staff responsible for The Love Guru" -- Filmcritic.com Posted Jun 19, 2008	The Love Guru (2008)	15%
4.5/5	"Like El Topo on even more peyote, or a spaghetti western as directed by Kenneth Anger channeling Federico Fellini, The Legend of God's Gun is an absolute masterpiece of style over surreal and slightly stereotyped" -- DVDTalk.com Posted Jun 19, 2008	Legend of God's Gun (2008)	n/a
4.5/5	"Like El Topo on even more peyote, or a spaghetti western as directed by Kenneth Anger channeling Federico Fellini, The Legend of God's Gun is an absolute masterpiece of style over surreal and slightly stereotyped substance." -- DVDTalk.com Posted Jun 19, 2008	Legend of God's Gun (2008)	n/a
4.5/5	"Roman Polanski deserves his badge of dishonor, no question about it. This amazing documentary argues that others need to start sporting one as well." -- PopMatters Posted Jun 13, 2008	Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired (2008)	85%
4.5/5	"...if anyone wants to have a serious discussion about the entire supplement situation, this excellent film is a good place to start." -- PopMatters Posted Jun 13, 2008	Bigger, Stronger, Faster* (2008)	97%
3.5/5	"It has to be said that one of the most "incredible" things about this so-called reinvention of the Hulk is how close it is to Ang Lee's vision." -- PopMatters Posted Jun 13, 2008	The Incredible Hulk (2008)	67%
1/5	"one of the worst attempts at end-of-the-world ominousness since the Robot Holocaust battled the Ninja Apocalypse" -- Filmcritic.com Posted Jun 12, 2008	The Happening (2008)	19%
4/5	"*Hitting the ground running and never giving up for 90 nasty minutes, Mother of Tears* is Dario Argento's final statement on his precedent as the definitive Delacroix of dread.*" -- PopMatters* Posted Jun 5, 2008	Mother of Tears (2008)	50%
3.5/5	"*From the wholly insular and yet perfectly realized fantasy world it creates to the nonstop barrage of ethnic slams, You Don't Mess with the Zohan* is a comedy of contradictions..*" -- PopMatters* Posted Jun 5, 2008	You Don't Mess with the Zohan (2008)	34%
4/5	"*If the Shaw Brothers had access to CGI and the post-modern voice talent, Kung Fu Panda* would have definitely been part of their stable of wuxia epics.*" -- PopMatters* Posted Jun 5, 2008	Kung Fu Panda (2008)	88%
3.5/5	"*Wistful and a little wonky, playfully recreating a fanciful early '80s UK summer, Son of Rambow* definitely feels like someone's personal experiences reinterpreted for public consumption.*" -- PopMatters* Posted May 30, 2008	Son of Rambow (2008)	75%
2/5	"The Strangers is a deadly dull experience in boredom, strangled by two cinematic stumbling blocks -- one external and one of its own unfortunate making." -- PopMatters Posted May 30, 2008	The Strangers (2008)	41%
2/5	"ridiculous and regressive." -- Filmcritic.com Posted May 29, 2008	Sex and the City: The Movie (2008)	51%
1.5/5	"As a so-called novel filmmaking device, the "found footage" approach of first person POV storytelling has just about run its course." -- Filmcritic.com Posted May 25, 2008	Chronicles of an Exorcism (2007)	n/a
2.5/5	"*The politics of War, Inc.* are not problematic so much as pedestrian. There's nothing new in embracing the anti-conservative screed to show how off kilter the country really is.*" -- PopMatters* Posted May 23, 2008	War, Inc. (2008)	31%
2/5	"*Indeed, Postal* is THAT kind of movie, one that substitutes rancor for real wit, that utilizes splatter when a few script rewrites would have worked much better.*" -- PopMatters* Posted May 23, 2008	Postal (2008)	9%
4/5	"Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is clearly a movie geared toward anyone under the age of 30 who memorized every moment of their Raiders VHS." -- PopMatters Posted May 22, 2008	Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)	76%
3.5/5	"CJ7 is a deceptive little delight, a movie that wisely avoids the pitfalls of its obvious homage to set its own cinematic course" -- PopMatters Posted May 16, 2008	CJ7 (2008)	45%
3.5/5	"Frontier(s) still finds a way to mine the past while staying rooted in the present. It may seem recognizable, but it's a well made and effective awareness" -- PopMatters Posted May 16, 2008	Frontier(s) (2008)	65%
2.5/5	"Sometimes, a story is just not worth telling, and while Mimi's life is definitely an unusual one, it's not iconic." -- PopMatters Posted May 16, 2008	Hats Off (2008)	38%
2.5/5	"On the page, The Chronicles of Narnia thrived on fiery faith-based fantasy. On film, said belief is rendered bland." -- Filmcritic.com Posted May 15, 2008	The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008)	66%
4/5	"*(Surfwise) delivers facts with fanciful shading, sequences that explain the lure of the ocean with images of the vast waves washing over their would-be conquerors." -- PopMatters* Posted May 8, 2008	Surfwise (2008)	100%
3.5/5	"Just when you think (Mamet) can't plow more storylines into his situations, the slightly bloated script finds room for five or six more." -- PopMatters Posted May 8, 2008	Redbelt (2008)	71%
4.5/5	"Young@Heart is a classic. May we all live to be so youthful in spirit and soul." -- PopMatters Posted May 8, 2008	Young@Heart (2008)	88%
5/5	"*Forget all the curmudgeonly criticism that argues for this movie's optical overload capacity - Speed Racer* is a modern masterpiece*" -- PopMatters* Posted May 8, 2008	Speed Racer (2008)	36%
1.5/5	"The battle for the human heart has official morphed from witty, sophisticated banter between star-crossed lovers to something akin to mixed martial arts." -- Filmcritic.com Posted May 8, 2008	What Happens in Vegas (2008)	27%
3/5	"*For all its noble intentions and universal truths, Snow Angels* is not a great movie. It's not a grand movie. It's barely a very good movie.*" -- PopMatters* Posted May 1, 2008	Snow Angels (2008)	67%
4.5/5	"Iron Man is fantastic, a sure fire blockbuster that will leave audiences breathless and fanboys wanting more." -- PopMatters Posted May 1, 2008	Iron Man (2008)	93%
2.5/5	"During its slightly surreal scenes, Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay crackles. At other times, it's the same old smoke out." -- Filmcritic.com Posted Apr 24, 2008	Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008)	54%
1/5	"a whiny, juvenile mess" -- Filmcritic.com Posted Apr 24, 2008	Baby Mama (2008)	61%
3.5/5	"not really a film you enjoy, per se. It's more like a feeling you get used to before finally accepting." -- Filmcritic.com Posted Apr 18, 2008	The Visitor (2008)	92%
