Sort by RATING	Sort by ADD DATE (default)	Sort by TITLE \| YEAR	Sort by T-METER
B+	"Lingers long after the lights come up. We can be grateful that films of quiet, unique beauty continue to be made." Posted Feb 13, 2008	The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (2007)	94%
C	"An inane script buries good actors who have terrific chemistry... A convoluted treasure hunt plot and sinking sentimentality don't help." Posted Feb 13, 2008	Fool's Gold (2008)	10%
C	"The lack of irony or humor -- except for the occasional unintended chuckles provoked by certain platitudinal one-liners -- here separates the violence from Tarantino films or graphic novel adaptations that often use their bloodfests to parody or to bemuse" Posted Jan 29, 2008	Rambo (2008)	33%
B+	"Different in all the right ways-- a complex, unpredictable attempt at giving its audience a lot to chew on. Pardon those of us who will take a flawed opus over bloated unoriginality." Posted Jan 26, 2008	Spider-Man 3 (2007)	62%
B	"[A] spotty, but ultimately effective thriller." Posted Jan 26, 2008	Rendition (2007)	47%
B+	"With the help of a great screenplay and tremendous acting, this film ... soars above the typical minority/underdog formula to inspire more than it manipulates." Posted Jan 26, 2008	The Great Debaters (2007)	79%
C+	"Katherine Heigl impresses and James Marsden is predictably dreamy in this always a bridesmaid never a you-know-what, been there, done that clich�-ridden formulaic rom-com." Posted Jan 26, 2008	27 Dresses (2008)	39%
A-	"Burton and Depp again prove to be a marvelous combination in this gory yet glorious adaptation of the Stephen Sondheim musical. When was the last time you winced and became misty-eyed in the same movie?" Posted Jan 26, 2008	Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007)	86%
A-	"Friendship, loyalty, tragedy, and politics are themes sensitively and sometimes terrifyingly examined. But the film's hopeful spirit hits home despite the differences in our culture and language." Posted Jan 26, 2008	The Kite Runner (2007)	66%
B+	"If you can stomach it, expect to leave the theater shaken yet entertained by every jolting, unexpected minute." Posted Jan 26, 2008	Cloverfield (2008)	77%
B	"*While not a classic in its own right, The Bucket List* displays two great actors in classic form, a sort of Planes, Trains and Automobiles for maturing audiences.*" Posted Jan 20, 2008*	The Bucket List (2007)	40%
B+	"Bursting with star power, comes off as a smart comedy, economically written and briskly paced while making politics more fun than they have a right to be." Posted Jan 18, 2008	Charlie Wilson's War (2007)	83%
B+	"And one more bonus, the technology almost convinces us Angelina Jolie can act. Revolutionary, indeed." Posted Jan 18, 2008	Beowulf (2007)	70%
D	"A film so filled with clich�s of the genre and plot points so dumb that even a novice would end up laughing." Posted Jan 4, 2008	The Messengers (2007)	11%
B	"A quietly moving story about a single Father and his Son. This decent film gets better as you watch it." Posted Jan 4, 2008	Firehouse Dog (2007)	38%
C	"Parents longing for entertaining and intelligent family superhero fare would be much better served renting 2005's Zathura or Sky High." Posted Jan 4, 2008	The Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007)	35%
C-	"Better to fold 'em than to spend time watching Eric Bana and Drew Barrymore go literally nowhere." Posted Jan 4, 2008	Lucky You (2007)	28%
B+	"While no rational person would believe Castro and Hillary are to be exalted, its medical horror stories are absolutely believable by anyone who's dealt with an HMO." Posted Jan 4, 2008	Sicko (2007)	93%
C	"Each film would have fared better as a 15-minute short." Posted Jan 4, 2008	Grindhouse (2007)	81%
B+	"A richly rewarding film experience that rises to the top of its genre." Posted Jan 4, 2008	Freedom Writers (2007)	69%
B+	"An overachiever of a film that practically defines the term summer blockbuster." Posted Jan 4, 2008	Transformers (2007)	57%
C	"It's unlikely many fans will have the patience to sit through this soulless, yet visually enticing voyage to nowhere more than once." Posted Jan 2, 2008	Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (2007)	45%
B	"Solid, if somewhat derivative filmmaking. A quiet thriller with some great performances." Posted Jan 2, 2008	The Lookout (2007)	87%
D	"The kind of film your parents will cite as the reason they don't go to movies anymore." Posted Jan 2, 2008	Georgia Rule (2007)	18%
B	"Feels refreshed and might be -- especially for relieved parents -- the most entertaining film of the franchise." Posted Jan 2, 2008	Shrek the Third (2007)	42%
B	"While it in no critical area improves upon the magic of its deliriously watchable original installment, it's flashier and funnier than expected." Posted Jan 2, 2008	Ocean's Thirteen (2007)	70%
A	"Weird on paper, strangely and sweetly affecting onscreen. See it. You won't regret it." Posted Jan 2, 2008	Lars And The Real Girl (2007)	80%
B+	"Familiar territory, movingly if not memorably explored." Posted Jan 2, 2008	American Gangster (2007)	79%
A	"Anyone smarter than a fifth grader will get a kick out the ingenuity, stellar animation, and relentless higher level humor (what, no poop jokes?) of a film that will reward multiple viewings." Posted Jan 2, 2008	Bee Movie (2007)	53%
B+	"Redford is to be commended for making a film that dares to navigate the "theater of ideas," despite its flaws." Posted Jan 2, 2008	Lions for Lambs (2007)	28%
C	"The excellent actors and good music make you think the movie will get better as it progresses, but it never does." Posted Jan 2, 2008	August Rush (2007)	37%
A	"Scary, thought-provoking, jump-in-your seat suspenseful, it conjures up a 'Cast Away' meets 'Dawn of the Dead' concoction full of simultaneous solitude and nightmares." Posted Jan 2, 2008	I Am Legend (2007)	68%
B-	"Heaven help parents if Hollywood stops making silly, good-natured, PG-rated family comedies." Posted Nov 19, 2007	Evan Almighty (2007)	23%
B+	"A multi-generational romantic comedy is a rare and precious thing to behold." Posted Nov 5, 2007	Dan in Real Life (2007)	64%
A	"Captures the rare chemistry and unforced artistry of two people finding musical as well as personal harmony together and we are lucky enough to be there to watch it." Posted Oct 23, 2007	Once (2007)	97%
B+	"Dealing with a topic like unconditional love and its power to vanquish guilt-inducing judgment requires first hand experience and keen insight." Posted Oct 22, 2007	Return With Honor: A Missionary Homecoming (2007)	n/a
A-	"A modern rarity: a smart, bloody, and truly horrific horror film." Posted Oct 22, 2007	28 Weeks Later (2007)	71%
D+	"A beautiful Grand Bahama island setting and majestic sea creatures can't offset an inert script and lackluster acting." Posted Oct 22, 2007	Eye of the Dolphin (2007)	33%
B+	"Yipee-ki-ay your way past the plot flaws and enjoy the ride." Posted Oct 22, 2007	Live Free or Die Hard (2007)	80%
B+	"A two-star execution of a four-star goal, and is therefore worthy of a viewing." Posted Oct 22, 2007	Resurrecting the Champ (2007)	61%
B+	"This current update is a competent, sufficiently creepy version with an A-list cast that dwarfs its B-movie predecessors by comparison." Posted Oct 22, 2007	The Invasion (2007)	19%
B+	"Should be congratulated as a film that aspires to the non-mainstream genre of fantasy fairy tale with a hint of Brothers Grimm edginess." Posted Oct 22, 2007	Stardust (2007)	76%
A-	"Another yummy concoction from Pixar." Posted Oct 22, 2007	Ratatouille (2007)	95%
B+	"The adrenaline rush the film produces disguises a rather thin plotline, and helps the viewer overlook the nearly suffocating air of self-seriousness." Posted Oct 22, 2007	The Bourne Ultimatum (2007)	93%
B+	"The big screen version of the legendary TV series is a fitting tribute and is worth the wait." Posted Oct 22, 2007	The Simpsons Movie (2007)	89%
A-	"The main point of a movie musical is the song and dance, and that's where the relentlessly happy "Hairspray" packs a knockout punch." Posted Oct 22, 2007	Hairspray (2007)	92%
C+	"With a script heavy on exposition almost completely devoid of sustained action sequences, Harry's latest is long on spiel and short on spells." Posted Oct 22, 2007	Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007)	77%
C+	"This many delicious ingredients should have produced a tastier, more memorable result." Posted Oct 22, 2007	No Reservations (2007)	39%
B+	"A little amateurish in spots, but it turns out better than a space-time adventure-comedy featuring a Nephite, Gadianton robbers, and a Latino gang from L.A. has a right to be." Posted Oct 22, 2007	Passage to Zarahemla (2007)	n/a
B+	"There are just enough interesting characters, along with dozens of fresh ideas relating to ping-pong, to keep the audience along for the ride." Posted Oct 22, 2007	Balls of Fury (2007)	23%
