	"*Seesawing from the gleefully stupid to the desperately stupid, Step Brothers* is an indicator that the Judd Apatow juggernaut has made one too many trips to the well.*" -- Variety* Posted Jul 24, 2008	Step Brothers (2008)	53%
No Rating	"So over-the-top it's purple." -- Variety Posted Jul 24, 2008	Repo! The Genetic Opera (2008)	n/a
3/4	"[A] lush, bold, intellectual treatment of the Evelyn Waugh novel about Catholicism and nonconformity, which ventures where the fabled '80s miniseries couldn't." -- Newsday Posted Jul 24, 2008	Brideshead Revisited (2008)	70%
2/4	"Nothing is revealed here, save for the sad fact that while young people's appetite for nonfiction film was supposed to be whetted by reality television, nonfiction film instead has turned into reality television." -- Newsday Posted Jul 24, 2008	American Teen (2008)	67%
3.5/4	"*The way the film marries its subplots will keep audiences off balance, which is exactly right for an X-Files* movie.*" -- Newsday* Posted Jul 24, 2008	The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008)	32%

3/4	"*Dramatically, however, Take* consistently works, and, with such a story, that's an amazing thing.*" -- Newsday* Posted Jul 18, 2008	Take (2008)	44%
3/4	"Tough, brutish prison drama with an easy windup, but good acting and an uncompromising take on the prison system." -- Newsday Posted Jul 18, 2008	Felon (2008)	56%
3/4	"Smartly scripted, convincingly atmospheric morality fable in which Hartnett, usually insubstantial as a good guy, plays a convincingly flawed character galloping toward the precipice." -- Newsday Posted Jul 14, 2008	August (2008)	36%
2/4	"Prendergast seems clueless that an excess of pure weirdness won't lead to an excess of laughs. It won't." -- Newsday Posted Jul 4, 2008	Kabluey (2008)	86%
	"Probably has the highest screams-per-capita ratio in the history of action-adventure pics, and a better thrill-per-minute deal than most." -- Variety Posted Jun 30, 2008	Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008)	60%
	"*There's a precision to the visual ornateness of Hellboy II* that exceeds even that of its predecessor.*" -- Variety* Posted Jun 30, 2008	Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)	87%
	"A jewel of a film in conception, execution and message." -- Washington Post Posted Jun 26, 2008	WALL-E (2008)	96%
	"Pic's condescending attitude toward its subjects won't help its already limited commercial chances." -- Variety Posted Jun 26, 2008	Paper or Plastic? (2008)	n/a
	"Mike Myers is anti-comedy . . . that is, if one presumes comedy ought to be smart, new, surprising or, yes, funny." -- Washington Post Posted Jun 20, 2008	The Love Guru (2008)	15%
2.5/4	"Where it's going all seems predetermined, but the visual journey is lovely, Robbie Ryan's camera turning even council-housing London into something optically enchanting." -- Newsday Posted Jun 20, 2008	Brick Lane (2008)	62%
	"Overacted and overblown, pic will underwhelm commercially, with theatrical perhaps limited to friends and family." -- Variety Posted Jun 19, 2008	The Art of Travel (2008)	40%
4/4	"A movie that is as happily warped and enthusiastically disturbed as the rest of [director Guy] Maddin's eccentric cinema." -- Newsday Posted Jun 13, 2008	My Winnipeg (2008)	97%
	"The portrayal of employment in America is too close for comfort. Or comedy...Not the stuff of lighthearted summer comedy." -- Washington Post Posted Jun 12, 2008	The Promotion (2008)	47%
2.5/4	"*While they might have had their ups and downs, the subjects of Chris & Don* are a testament to fidelity.*" -- Newsday* Posted Jun 12, 2008	Chris & Don: A Love Story (2008)	96%

No Rating	Click here to read article -- Variety Posted Jun 10, 2008	Trucker (2008)	n/a
3/4	"Bold, epic battle-happy movie that humanizes the world-conqueror and gives him plenty to be aggressive about." -- Newsday Posted Jun 6, 2008	Mongol (2008)	88%
	"*The best thing about Children* is the cinematography by Zhao Xiaoding (Hero, House of Flying Daggers), which is so distracting because it so out-classes the rest of the movie.*" -- Washington Post* Posted Jun 5, 2008	The Children of Huang Shi (2008)	26%
3/4	"Director Tucker's virtuosity is in marrying Blake's memories to the present and finding they are one." -- Newsday Posted Jun 5, 2008	When Did You Last See Your Father? (2008)	73%
	"This computer-animated DreamWorks film is infectious and inspiring, despite one's best efforts to resist its charms." -- Washington Post Posted Jun 5, 2008	Kung Fu Panda (2008)	88%
2.5/4	"Stuck is genuinely suspenseful and grotesque. It may make you wonder why anyone thought it had to be made, but it is absorbingly macabre." -- Newsday Posted May 29, 2008	Stuck (2008)	71%
2.5/4	"The performance-enhancing quality behind this muscular movie is director Chris Bell's willingness to go far beyond the call of duty." -- Newsday Posted May 29, 2008	Bigger, Stronger, Faster* (2008)	97%
	"A film crying out to be discovered by midnight movie mavens." -- Variety Posted May 22, 2008	The Foot Fist Way (2008)	58%
	"Suffers from, if anything, a lack of pure confidence in the story, the actors or the audience." -- Washington Post Posted May 16, 2008	Then She Found Me (2008)	54%
3.5/4	"A beautifully made film, one that possesses a troubling visual sense of spiritual corruption." -- Newsday Posted May 15, 2008	My Father My Lord (2008)	92%
2/4	"Prince Caspian has the same problems as its predecessor: a C.S. Lewis story line rendered anemic, and a cast of sweet but unengaging principals." -- Newsday Posted May 15, 2008	The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008)	66%
	"Terra isn't sugar-coated -- the humans are hardly paragons of virtue, but neither are the Terrareans. And the story's resolution won't make Terra the feel-good cartoon of 2008, although it is a work of art." -- Variety Posted May 12, 2008	Terra (2008)	n/a
	"Despite the occasional detour into mawkishness, "A Previous Engagement" nicely balances unutterable truths about marriage and love with the comedy that is human interaction and the unending drama that is man and women, repulsion and attraction." -- Variety Posted May 12, 2008	A Previous Engagement (2008)	35%
2.5/4	"What Happens in Vegas contains enough unbridled silliness to salvage its lowbrow high concept." -- Newsday Posted May 9, 2008	What Happens in Vegas (2008)	27%
3/4	"The film is well-acted, a broad colonial allegory, and again, visually gorgeous." -- Newsday Posted May 9, 2008	Before the Rains (2008)	45%
	"A blackly comic take on the first totally outsourced war? We're too close to being in one right now, which makes this John Cusack vehicle too close for comfort. It's also so close to being funny you can just about taste it -- just about." -- Variety Posted May 6, 2008	War, Inc. (2008)	31%
	"If it manages not to lose its assets while dipping its toe into murkier issues -- becoming, say, a brow-knitting thumb-sucker -- then it's really a work of art; such is Guest of Cindy Sherman." -- Variety Posted May 5, 2008	Guest of Cindy Sherman (2008)	n/a
No Rating	"What auds will find, however, is the same kind of pugnacious self-celebration that affects many nonfiction films about relatively obscure subjects -- relentless, stentorian bombast about how important it is. Which only serves to make one think, maybe not." -- Variety Posted Apr 29, 2008	SqueezeBox! (2008)	n/a
	"Deal is perhaps too briskly paced: The narrative moves along a bit too fleetingly for any genuine character development." -- Variety Posted Apr 24, 2008	Deal (2008)	0%
2/4	"*What may be the first real outsourcing comedy, Baby Mama* is like a pacifier: floppy, nourishment-free and may even keep your teeth from growing in straight.*" -- Newsday* Posted Apr 24, 2008	Baby Mama (2008)	61%
3/4	"The atmosphere created by director H.S. Miller is gothic, tortured, stylized yet tinged with a classicist's sense of composition, symmetry and, yes, perspective." -- Newsday Posted Apr 18, 2008	Anamorph (2008)	26%
	"A work of art on the order of a poem by Yeats or a painting by Rothko." -- Washington Post Posted Apr 17, 2008	The Flight of the Red Balloon (2008)	78%
2.5/4	"Kunis is not just Peter's savior, but the saving grace of a comedy that is really a series of sketches, a few of which sparkle, and most of which you'll soon forget." -- Newsday Posted Apr 17, 2008	Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008)	85%
	"Obvious, plodding, cloying and politically innocuous." -- Variety Posted Apr 16, 2008	Home of the Brave (2006)	23%
4/4	"Hou Hsiao-hsien's first French-language film shows why the Taiwanese master is considered one of the world's great filmmakers." -- Newsday Posted Apr 11, 2008	The Flight of the Red Balloon (2008)	78%
	"Just showing us what ex-sitcom stars and Bavarian directors do in their spare time isn't quite enough to justify The Grand, which does for poker what Best in Show did for dogs while completely avoiding any jokes about poker-playing canines." -- Washington Post Posted Apr 10, 2008	The Grand ()	39%
	"The director has created a not-to-miss gem for the discriminating viewer." -- Washington Post Posted Apr 10, 2008	Chop Shop (2007)	95%
2/4	"It concludes in a way that will have you asking whether the ending was misguided, or maybe it was just the rest of the movie." -- Newsday Posted Apr 10, 2008	Dark Matter (2008)	34%
