4/4	"The fact that "Savages" looks at an ordinary and often inevitable part of life shouldn't obscure the fact that this is a beautifully written and wonderfully played film, capturing the nuances of family dynamics as assuredly as any film I've seen in quite" Posted Jan 18, 2008	The Savages (2007)	91%
4/4	""Citizen Kane" drenched in oil and blood and left to bake in the hot California sun." Posted Jan 17, 2008	There Will Be Blood (2007)	92%
4/4	"There's something about the 1979 Stephen Sondheim musical that awakened something audacious and inspired in Burton, sparking him to make his best film since "Ed Wood."" Posted Dec 21, 2007	Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007)	86%
4/4	"It's frustrating, brilliant, beautiful, maddening, hilarious and tragic, and may ruin me for conventional rock 'n' roll biopics that provide easy motivations and facile answers." Posted Nov 21, 2007	I'm Not There (2007)	78%
4/4	"Not satisfied with just being one of the best thrillers I've ever seen, "No Country of Old Men" goes beyond that in its third act to becoming a haunting and unforgettable American classic." Posted Nov 21, 2007	No Country for Old Men (2007)	95%
4/4	"I expected that "Gangster" would pay homage to films like "The French Connection," "Superfly," "Serpico" and even "The Godfather." What I didn't expect was that the spirit of those films was deeply imbedded in its bones." Posted Nov 2, 2007	American Gangster (2007)	79%
4/4	"It's when the investigation sorts out the knowable (what happened?) and then moves into the unknowable (why?) that "Elah" moves beyond genre and becomes one of the year's best films." Posted Sep 27, 2007	In the Valley of Elah (2007)	72%
4/4	""Ratatouille" is so fresh and fun and original and wonderful that the very least I could do is get through this review without any lame cooking metaphors." Posted Jun 29, 2007	Ratatouille (2007)	95%
4/4	""Away From Her" is one of the great love stories of recent movies, striking because it takes place near the end of a love affair's long journey, rather than at the beginning as so many romances do." Posted May 25, 2007	Away From Her (2007)	95%
4/4	"There are whispers of bigger themes present -- the changing nature of friendship, the co-opting of '90s "alternative" culture into the mainstream -- but, for the most part, much of what you get out of the film depends what you bring to it." Posted Feb 23, 2007	Old Joy (2006)	85%
4/4	"Eastwood has crafted the best war movie since "Saving Private Ryan."" Posted Jan 25, 2007	Letters From Iwo Jima (2006)	91%
4/4	"Boundless in its visual imagination but exacting in its emotional explorations, "Sleep" is one of the best and certainly most distinctive films of the year." Posted Sep 29, 2006	The Science of Sleep (2006)	69%
4/4	"It's as alive, as unpredictable, and certainly as devoid of cliches as few movies I've seen in quite a while." Posted Sep 21, 2006	Half Nelson (2006)	91%
4/4	"You'll leave the theater shaken, moved, and certain of just one thing: you don't know nearly as much about Iraq as you think you do, or need to." Posted Aug 31, 2006	The War Tapes (2006)	98%
4/4	"It's kind of ironic to hear such an anti-competitive message from one of the best movies of the year." Posted Aug 18, 2006	Little Miss Sunshine (2006)	91%
4/4	""A Prairie Home Companion" is an incredibly well-made and graceful film, with an unbelievably gifted cast dancing to the Midwestern poetry of Garrison Keillor's script and Robert Altman's direction." Posted Jun 30, 2006	A Prairie Home Companion (2006)	80%
4/4	"Thrillers often betray their audiences in order to entertain them. In "Cache," it's the footage itself that betrays us." Posted Apr 13, 2006	Cach� (2005)	88%
4/4	"It's what Hoffman finds lurking beneath Capote's baby-faced exterior -- the intellect, the cruelty, and above all the self-destructive ambition -- that makes it a performance for the ages" Posted Nov 18, 2005	Capote (2005)	91%
4/4	"This is the one you�ve been saving yourself for." Posted Aug 18, 2005	The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005)	84%
4/4	"If �Murderball� tells us anything, it�s that quadriplegia isn�t for wussies." Posted Aug 12, 2005	Murderball (2005)	98%
4/4	"The wrenching �Brothers� is like �The Deer Hunter� for the War on Terror." Posted Jun 23, 2005	Brothers (2005)	89%
4/4	"The film just delivers on every level, not only as one of the great sports movies in recent memory but as a truly inspiring and thrilling comeback story." Posted Jun 2, 2005	Cinderella Man (2005)	80%
4/4	"A movie critic doesn�t get to say this very often, so he should take the opportunity when he can: You have never seen anything like �Oldboy� before." Posted May 26, 2005	Oldboy (2005)	82%
4/4	"�Crash� is the first great film of 2005. No other film released this year has the power to grab, challenge, rattle, unsettle, entertain and touch its audience like this." Posted May 6, 2005	Crash (2005)	75%
4/4	"You shouldn�t go see �Tarnation� because it was made so cheaply. You should see it because it was made so well." Posted Feb 17, 2005	Tarnation (2004)	92%
4/4	"One brilliant, funny and generous film that exists somewhere between "Siddhartha" and Sid Caesar. " Posted Oct 21, 2004	I Heart Huckabees (2004)	61%
4/4	"We�re sent out of the theater unsettled and somewhat mystified by what we saw, but exhilarated to have been in the presence of a truly impressive filmmaking debut." Posted Jul 29, 2004	The Return (2004)	96%
4/4	"It�s a beautiful period epic that�s also a very affecting story about a man of action who yearns to be a man of inaction." Posted May 27, 2004	Twilight Samurai (2004)	98%
4/4	""The Fog of War" is a fascinating documentary, both an examination of the forces that guide nations and a portrait of an old man who slipped through his own fingers." Posted Mar 5, 2004	The Fog of War (2003)	98%
4/4	"(Lopez's) teaching is simply one of the purest expressions of love I�ve ever seen on film." Posted Jan 15, 2004	To Be and To Have (2003)	96%
4/4	"The script by Sprecher and her sister Karen is a clockwork marvel, and offers some talented actors their best roles in years" Posted Jun 28, 2002	Thirteen Conversations About One Thing (2002)	82%
4/4	"See, this is what �The Passion of the Christ� needed. More song-and-dance numbers." Posted Jul 15, 2004	Monty Python's Life of Brian (1979)	98%
4/4	"One of the masterpieces of its era and its genre." Posted Jan 18, 2007	Army of Shadows (1969)	97%

4/4	"These are two unique and unforgettable family films -- one an essential part of world cinema, the other an underseen gem -- that a new generation deserves the chance to get acquainted with" Posted Dec 7, 2007	The Red Balloon (1955)	100%
4/4	"A great film because of the way it moves beyond social commentary to show how each character, rich and poor, is isolated and at the same time unified by his fears and needs. We're all in a class by ourselves." Posted Mar 1, 2007	The Rules of the Game (1939)	97%
