	"A madly beautiful, often straight-up-bonkers meditation on the life of its eponymous Armenian-Azeri balladeer and poet." Posted Feb 21, 2008	The Color of Pomegranates (1969)	80%
	"Shadows was a leap in the dark like none other in Soviet film history, and a slap in the face of the officially sanctioned and artistically vacuous school of Socialist Realism." Posted Feb 21, 2008	Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors (1964)	100%
	"*Laboring in the wide shadow of Almod�var and lacking much in the way of visual distinction, Unconscious* compensates with its cast�s full-tilt commitment to rip-snorting farce.*" Posted Apr 12, 2007*	Unconscious (2007)	85%
	"Profound and joyously silly at the same time, Steve Anderson�s documentary about our most potent secular blasphemy comes at the word and subject from every conceivable angle: Its awesome power to offend the listener and to empower its utterer." Posted Nov 9, 2006	Fuck (2006)	57%
	"A tonic for Buddhists, no doubt, it offers many pleasures to atheists as well." Posted Sep 7, 2006	Vajra Sky Over Tibet (2006)	55%
	"Aranoa's film is a small miracle of controlled empathy." Posted Aug 31, 2006	Princesas (2006)	74%
	"This enormously likable comedy is given an additional boost by the energetic presence of five of Spain�s favorite actresses (including sleek Marisa Paredes, flighty Mercedes Sanpietro and growlin� Carmen Maura, an Almod�var regular)." Posted Aug 24, 2006	Queens (aka Reinas) (2006)	43%
	"Inspirational stuff, and often hysterical to boot." Posted Jul 6, 2006	Sisters in Law (2006)	90%
	"In RV, the downwardly spiraling career trajectories of Robin Williams and director Barry Sonnenfeld intertwine like the ropes of a tangled parachute." Posted May 2, 2006	RV (2006)	23%
	"Consummately well-crafted, unapologetically vicious and leavened with moments of humor that merely intensify the horror." Posted Dec 22, 2005	Wolf Creek (2005)	53%
	"A harrowing and often nauseating compendium of battle-zone confessions that was cast into obscurity almost immediately upon release in 1972." Posted Nov 3, 2005	Winter Soldier (1972)	100%
	"Crowe�s undeniable gifts -- his well-crafted individual scenes and his love for his characters -- are more evident here than his flaws." Posted Oct 13, 2005	Elizabethtown (2005)	28%
	"The colors are lurid, the camera prowls relentlessly, and the lead performers are exuberant." Posted Aug 25, 2005	The Perfect Crime (2005)	84%
	"[Anselmo's] sure-footed handling of emotional tone enables his endearing young leads to function in a sympathetic and coherent realm." Posted May 20, 2004	Stateside (2004)	24%
	"One of the richest prison movies in years." Posted May 12, 2004	Carandiru (2004)	68%
	"Relaxed, leisurely and unforced, exactly the way a pleasant round of golf ought to be." Posted Apr 29, 2004	Bobby Jones: Stroke of Genius (2004)	27%
	"The movie has a rambunctious and likable energy that compensates for its unsteady, only intermittently amusing narrative." Posted Mar 31, 2004	Shaolin Soccer (2002)	90%
	"One of the sturdier superhero movies of the last couple of years, with monsters and effects and diabolical baddies to spare, a heart as big as a house and a love story that actually gets its hooks in you." Posted Mar 31, 2004	Hellboy (2004)	80%
	"*While Eurotrip* scarcely amounts to a considered examination of transatlantic cultural differences, it sure comes through on the belly-laugh front.*" Posted Feb 26, 2004*	Eurotrip (2004)	46%
	"Breathtaking stuff that freezes the toes, harrows the soul and turns the viewer's seat into a foot-wide ledge over a yawning chasm." Posted Feb 5, 2004	Touching the Void (2004)	93%
	"Hysterically funny, historically aware, politically nuanced, culturally sophisticated and productively self-critical all at the same time -- and you'll need a second viewing just to catch all the jokes." Posted Feb 5, 2004	Barbershop 2: Back in Business (2004)	69%
	"For the first time in ages, a film makes one grateful for special effects: Indeed, it feels as if this is the very story such innovations were invented to enhance. You do, you do, you DO believe in fairies!" Posted Dec 18, 2003	Peter Pan (2003)	76%
	"Rough-hewn, improvisatory and contentedly lo-fi, the resulting documentary should prove warmly encouraging to embattled progressives of all stripes, and incidentally offers the best political date-movie of the week." Posted Nov 20, 2003	The Revolution Will Not Be Televised (2003)	98%
	"A nasty, intelligent and complex thriller." Posted Jul 9, 2003	Tattoo (2002)	74%
	"A bracingly sarcastic political comedy ... possessed of a baleful satiric eye for hypocrisy and greed, a delicious anti-clerical bent, and pitch-perfect comic timing." Posted Jun 12, 2003	La Ley De Herodes (2000)	67%
	"Often extremely funny." Posted May 22, 2003	The In-Laws (2003)	36%
	"The always-watchable Bologna is the adhesive holding together this slight and gentle romantic comedy, lending it perhaps more conviction and authority than the material warrants." Posted Apr 25, 2003	Returning Mickey Stern (2005)	31%
	"Relentless, infantile and impossible to dislike." Posted Feb 27, 2003	Cradle 2 the Grave (2003)	25%
	"A coercive script by James Kearns, and some middling direction by Nick Cassavetes, can't rob the movie of an undeniable, headlong crowd-pleasing power as it tackles an issue that touches us all." Posted Jan 21, 2003	John Q (2002)	22%
	"If only all sequels were this much fun." Posted Dec 5, 2002	Analyze That (2002)	27%
	"[Noyce] has made a good-looking, intelligent stab at the novel, mildly undermined by a tendency to seek contemporary relevance." Posted Nov 21, 2002	The Quiet American (2002)	89%
	"The niftiest Bond movie in years -- fresh, funny, and jammed to the rafters with demented stunts, Boys'-Own gadgetry and brazen promiscuity." Posted Nov 21, 2002	Die Another Day (2002)	59%
	"A strangely stirring experience that finds warmth in the coldest environment and makes each crumb of emotional comfort feel like a 10-course banquet." Posted Oct 24, 2002	All or Nothing (2002)	83%
	"Both an admirable reconstruction of terrible events, and a fitting memorial to the dead of that day, and of the thousands thereafter." Posted Oct 18, 2002	Bloody Sunday (2002)	92%
	"Immensely exciting and funny -- and it even has a Proust joke." Posted Oct 18, 2002	The Transporter (2002)	53%
	"Unlike the nauseating fictions peddled by such 'Have-yourself-a-happy-little-Holocaust' movies as Life Is Beautiful and Jakob the Liar, The Grey Zone is honest enough to deny the possibility of hope in Auschwitz." Posted Oct 17, 2002	The Grey Zone (2002)	68%
	"Behan's emotional growth and confused self-examination are ably conveyed by Hatosy's spirited and well-nuanced performance." Posted Oct 14, 2002	Borstal Boy (2002)	48%
	"Culkin, a revelation here, mines every last nuance of the confusion and anger that results." Posted Sep 12, 2002	Igby Goes Down (2002)	76%
	"An intelligent, moving and invigorating film." Posted Sep 12, 2002	My Father and I (2002)	91%
	"An effervescent campus gross-out comedy that�s true to the amoral, anarchic spirit of Lampoon founder-editor and screenwriter Doug Kenney." Posted Jun 1, 2002	National Lampoon's Van Wilder (2002)	18%
