2.5/4	"When you've got three of the nation's best actresses in leading roles, it doesn't matter if your script is only adequate and the audience really has to squint here and there to believe what's happening on the screen." Posted Apr 11, 2008	Bonneville (2006)	43%
3/4	"Shelter rises very high indeed, thanks to a superb performance by Trevor Wright in the lead role, a strong supporting cast, very good cinematography and, most of all, emotional authenticity." Posted Mar 28, 2008	Shelter (2008)	53%
3/4	"The film overflows with displays of explosive dancing and does a superb job showing the form's incredible complexity and technical diversity." Posted Mar 28, 2008	Planet B-Boy (2008)	90%
4/4	"For some of the way, it seems like a kind of skateboard whodunit. Soon enough, we understand it's much more than that. And by then, we know we're in for a ride to remember." Posted Mar 14, 2008	Paranoid Park (2008)	76%
3/4	" *The moral conundrum at the heart of Austrian director Stefan Ruzowitzky's The Counterfeiters* is worthy of Kafka or Dostoevsky.*" Posted Feb 29, 2008*	The Counterfeiters (2008)	94%
2/4	"Those waiting for the arrival of the next Juno may want to skip Charlie Bartlett, a relentlessly earnest teen film about a 17-year-old misfit who's been tossed out of one prep school after another for bad behavior." Posted Feb 22, 2008	Charlie Bartlett (2007)	53%
3.5/4	"The film is graced with a mostly superb cast, superior special effects, a sparkling musical score by James Horner and a fantasy-filled plot with a bit of moralizing, but, fortunately, only a bit." Posted Feb 14, 2008	The Spiderwick Chronicles (2008)	79%
2/4	"Some may think the metaphoric possibilities of an incurable illness that can be transmitted through sexual contact have been all but exhausted. Director Andr� T�chin� almost proves otherwise in The Witnesses, a kind of film opera without music." Posted Feb 1, 2008	The Witnesses (2008)	85%
3/4	"Teixeira elicits extraordinary performances from his entire cast." Posted Jan 25, 2008	Alice's House (2008)	88%
2/4	"How She Move isn't a great film or even a terribly well-made film, but it has its moments and, of course, it has the ending it's promised all along." Posted Jan 25, 2008	How She Move (2008)	68%
2/4	"In the end, you will believe the film's talking heads, but, more than likely, what they say may still make little logical sense to you." Posted Jan 18, 2008	Steep (2007)	55%
1/4	"This is a movie that will leave you stunned and stupefied from beginning to end, if you don't head for the exits first." Posted Dec 21, 2007	P.S. I Love You (2007)	21%
1/4	"Give me a bit of the old ultraviolence any day. Just make me care about it." Posted Dec 14, 2007	Outlaw (2007)	24%
4/4	"Juno isn't a film made in the bell jar of unlikely reality that is, far too often, Hollywood: It's a film whose attention to real-life detail is so fine, audiences will be hopelessly and happily lost in its story from the first frame." Posted Dec 14, 2007	Juno (2007)	93%
2/4	"*Despite the flabby direction and uninspired plot, The Perfect Holiday* almost works because Chestnut and Union are an attractive couple and you want them to get together.*" Posted Dec 12, 2007*	The Perfect Holiday (2007)	17%
2/4	"*For its first 45 minutes or so, and intermittently thereafter, Michael Schroeder's Man in the Chair* feels, annoyingly, like a film school project.*" Posted Dec 7, 2007*	Man in the Chair (2007)	50%
2/4	"The film is too short because the characters just aren't sufficiently developed, but even at a scant 90 minutes, it feels way too long." Posted Nov 30, 2007	Undoing (2007)	33%
3/4	"Often gripping and ultimately poignant" Posted Nov 24, 2007	Midnight Eagle (2007)	25%
3/4	"Written by Reilly and Paul Linke, the film is both revealing and evasive. You want to know more about his personal life than you ever find out." Posted Nov 16, 2007	Life of Reilly (2007)	100%
3.5/4	"The truths of [the subject's] life, no matter how unbelievable they may seem at times, make him almost heroic and the film almost perfect." Posted Oct 26, 2007	The Monastery: Mr. Vig & the Nun (2006)	78%
3/4	"A very funny, equal-opportunity broadside that targets Asian stereotyping, and not just by non-Asians." Posted Oct 19, 2007	Finishing the Game (2007)	33%
3/4	"For the Bible Tells Me So doesn't follow the formula. That's just one of the reasons it works well as a film and a lesson about, as one open-minded preacher puts it, what the Bible "reads" about what it supposedly "says" about homosexuality." Posted Oct 12, 2007	For the Bible Tells Me So (2007)	93%
3/4	"Bhukya delivers an entrancing and natural performance, deftly balancing both the wide-eyed childishness of a young girl with the dawning awareness of life's darker possibilities." Posted Oct 5, 2007	Vanaja (2007)	81%
1/4	"The film isn't very interesting because it isn't well made." Posted Sep 28, 2007	The Last Winter (2007)	78%
3.5/4	"Ira & Abby is a comedy of errors that makes very few along the way." Posted Sep 28, 2007	Ira & Abby (2007)	66%
3/4	"The kind of film people call 'uplifting,' and while it is that much of the way, there are times when it's so oversaturated with sweetness and light, it's likely to uplift more cynical viewers from their seats in the movie theater. No matter." Posted Sep 21, 2007	December Boys (2007)	42%
2/4	"The movie's spectacular scenery and compelling message counterbalance the somewhat plodding pace and wooden performances by a cast of nonactors." Posted Sep 21, 2007	Milarepa (2007)	36%
3/4	"With Delirious, writer-director Tom DiCillo has crafted a wonderfully giddy meditation on the nature of fame, the people who sell it and those doing the buying, and their mutually parasitic dependence on each other." Posted Sep 14, 2007	Delirious (2007)	85%
2/4	"Chalk is a gentle mockumentary about high school teachers -- so gentle, you wonder why anyone bothered. So gentle, it verges on 'what's the point?'" Posted Sep 7, 2007	Chalk (2007)	79%
3/4	"God is in the details for director Eytan Fox, and it doesn't matter whether that God happens to be worshiped by Israelis or Palestinians." Posted Sep 7, 2007	The Bubble (2007)	55%
2.5/4	"The performances are fairly static, but Lim and Leow are charming enough to hold our attention." Posted Aug 31, 2007	Cut Sleeve Boys (2006)	45%
2/4	"The film would have worked better if it had stuck more closely to real estate as both the source and target of the satire." Posted Aug 24, 2007	Closing Escrow (2007)	54%
2/4	"*For much of the way, These Foolish Things* not only drips with catty dialogue, it fairly overflows, so much so that you half wonder if it's meant to be a satire. Alas, no.*" Posted Aug 17, 2007*	These Foolish Things (2006)	n/a
4/4	"Don't expect a history lesson: Shaun's story is more than enough to grab and hold your attention." Posted Aug 10, 2007	This Is England (2007)	93%
2.5/4	"The film doesn't mean anything, but it's beautifully photographed and the cast is blindingly gorgeous and frequently naked." Posted Aug 3, 2007	One to Another (2007)	47%
3/4	"No one will be bored with the feature film, but everyone who knows the show well will have a nagging feeling that something is missing." Posted Jul 26, 2007	The Simpsons Movie (2007)	89%
2/4	"As a character, X is rather reticent and buttoned-up. If he'd stayed that way as a narrator, a rather nice film would have been even better." Posted Mar 23, 2007	Boy Culture (2007)	70%
2/4	"In the end, the film's bigger challenge isn't its length, or its deliberate pace: It's that it's overly freighted with symbolism and meaning." Posted Jan 5, 2007	The Aura (2006)	88%
4/4	"The film asks many questions, implies answers for the easier ones, but ultimately concludes that some are simply beyond answering. Those are the questions posed in stories of incalculable human heartbreak." Posted Aug 22, 2006	When the Levees Broke (2006)	96%
1/4	"Lo�c (Pierre Chatagny) is not only stupid, he's dull and uninteresting, as well as uninterested in the world around him." Posted Oct 21, 2005	Garcon Stupide (2006)	52%
4/4	"*Reminds us of what an extraordinary work Our Town* is and will always be, as long as it's handled by real pros.*" Posted Jul 8, 2003*	Our Town (2003)	n/a
