2.5/4	"Hancock is still worth seeing, if only for a glimpse of what might have been a truly innovative idea." Posted Jul 1, 2008	Hancock (2008)	36%
4/4	"The greatest of all films by Pixar Animation, the little Disney studio with the Midas touch." Posted Jun 27, 2008	WALL-E (2008)	96%
3/4	"[Bekmambetov] hasn't just made a thriller with Wanted, he's redefined the genre." Posted Jun 27, 2008	Wanted (2008)	72%
4/4	"The film, shot in black and white, like most of Maddin's creations, is a treat for fans and a migraine for the uninitiated or terminally dull." Posted Jun 20, 2008	My Winnipeg (2008)	96%
2.5/4	"Myers' Pitka is the stealthiest of holy rollers: he makes you roar just when you think he's going to hell in a hand basket." Posted Jun 20, 2008	The Love Guru (2008)	15%
3/4	"*The truth is that Get Smart* is one of the year's sharper comedies, and if it contains any WMDs, that stands for 'wit of major delight.'*" Posted Jun 20, 2008*	Get Smart (2008)	52%
3/4	"In truth, Canadian filmmaker Martin Gero's very funny and insightful feature debut is far less shocking than its detractors -- most of whom haven't even seen it -- would have you believe." Posted Jun 13, 2008	Young People Fucking (2008)	80%
2/4	"The lack of character shading suggests Marvel Studios went too far in distancing itself from Lee's much-reviled predecessor. Could a better balance between brawn and brains not have been struck?" Posted Jun 13, 2008	The Incredible Hulk (2008)	68%
3/4	"Even if you can't completely follow the plot, you also can't take your eyes off the scenery, the thrilling horse chases and the throat-slashing battles." Posted Jun 6, 2008	Mongol (2008)	88%
2.5/4	"*Neither as original as Ratatouille* nor as funny as Shrek.*" Posted Jun 6, 2008*	Kung Fu Panda (2008)	88%
3/4	"*For those who'd like some substance in a movie pushing 2 1/2 hours, though, it's gratifying to report that this Sex* is more than just a fan dance.*" Posted May 30, 2008*	Sex and the City: The Movie (2008)	51%
	"Indy IV may not entirely be the grand return that everyone had hoped for, but it's still great to see a good old friend come around again." Posted May 19, 2008	Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)	77%
2.5/4	"The film does offer a glimmer of hope that behind all the bellowing by politicians and thugs, there are millions of people in the Middle East who simply yearn for peace." Posted May 16, 2008	Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden? (2008)	36%
1.5/4	"[A] flaky disaster." Posted May 9, 2008	My Blueberry Nights (2008)	47%
2.5/4	"The rapport between the two rogue cineastes is enough to carry both films: the one they're making and the one Jennings is trying to make." Posted May 9, 2008	Son of Rambow (2008)	75%
3/4	"The glue that holds it together is Ejiofor's muscular performance as a man whose principles may be about to feel the brass knuckles of reality." Posted May 9, 2008	Redbelt (2008)	72%
3/4	"*The singular achievement of SOP* is reminding us that truth is always a slippery construct, made all the more so by the fallible human mind and the ever-blinking eye.*" Posted May 2, 2008*	Standard Operating Procedure (2008)	77%
2.5/4	"Well acted but dramatically unyielding." Posted May 2, 2008	Fugitive Pieces (2008)	67%
3.5/4	"*There's no rust on the first blockbuster of summer '08: Iron Man* is an ironclad cinch to be a hit.*" Posted May 1, 2008*	Iron Man (2008)	93%
3/4	"Newcomer Wareing delivers an award-worthy performance as the steely Angie, who is impossible to hate even as she descends deeper into the moral abyss." Posted Apr 25, 2008	It's a Free World (2007)	93%
2.5/4	"This is one of those rare pictures that can gross you out and make you think at one and the same time." Posted Apr 25, 2008	Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008)	55%
2.5/4	"Baby Mama offers ample evidence that Fey and Poehler are more than ready for prime-time screen gigs. Let's hope they team again for a comedy that delivers all that it promises." Posted Apr 25, 2008	Baby Mama (2008)	61%
1/4	"*This movie is Battlefield Earth* bad. It's 10,000 B.C. bad. It's bad with a side of fries and a cherry cola.*" Posted Apr 18, 2008*	88 Minutes (2008)	6%
3/4	"This is the long-awaited teaming of superstars Jackie Chan and Jet Li, and it's an occasion to applaud for those who like a few yuks with their kicks." Posted Apr 18, 2008	The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)	63%
2.5/4	"**Forgetting Sarah Marshall finds Apatow back on form, after the recent disappointments of Drillbit Taylor and, to a lesser extent, Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story.*" Posted Apr 18, 2008*	Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008)	85%
1/4	"There's absolutely zippo to fear about this movie, unless you're the kind of person who jumps when formula bogeymen do exactly what you'd expect them to do." Posted Apr 14, 2008	Prom Night (2008)	8%
1.5/4	"*Just one person saves Smart People* from being completely wretched. It's the presence of Thomas Haden Church.*" Posted Apr 11, 2008*	Smart People (2008)	49%
2.5/4	"The movie belongs to Reeves, who at 43 is finally starting to look like an adult, with greater heft all round. He does Clint proud." Posted Apr 11, 2008	Street Kings (2008)	36%
3/4	"It's showbiz, after all. And the band still rocks like none other, true to their creed that if their adored blues masters can play into their dotage, then so can they." Posted Apr 4, 2008	Shine a Light (2008)	86%
2/4	"Clooney is now at the stage of his life and career where a flash of his playboy grin earns him enough audience goodwill to carry him over rough patches -- and Lord knows, this movie has them." Posted Apr 4, 2008	Leatherheads (2008)	53%
1/4	"It looks for all the world as if writer/director Craig Mazin took the screenplay for Spider-Man, propped it up next to his MacBook, and just went through it, inserting fart gags, pratfalls and the lamest of jokes." Posted Mar 31, 2008	Superhero Movie! (2008)	14%
2.5/4	"When Spacey and Fishburne really go at each other, 21 finally starts to add up to something." Posted Mar 28, 2008	21 (2008)	35%
2.5/4	"Run, Fat Boy, Run is the directorial debut of actor David Schwimmer, who is much better behind the camera than in front of it. Here, he's taken material best suited to sketch comedy and turned it into a feature of no small heart and humour." Posted Mar 28, 2008	Run, Fat Boy, Run (2008)	48%
3/4	"Days of Darkness is arguably [Denis] Arcand's most depressing film. Yet it's also one of his greatest and, in a strange way, his most uplifting." Posted Mar 21, 2008	Days of Darkness (2007)	n/a
2/4	"It's strange how a movie with this many different things happening could be so dull." Posted Mar 21, 2008	Married Life (2008)	56%
1.5/4	"This is Apatow Lite, a slapped-together series of sketches that are rarely funny and are often nastier than a movie aimed at pre-teens should be." Posted Mar 21, 2008	Drillbit Taylor (2008)	26%
2/4	"*Saddled with a title all too true to its somnambulist pace, Sleepwalking* is a textbook case of a bad movie partially redeemed by good acting.*" Posted Mar 14, 2008*	Sleepwalking (2008)	19%
3.5/4	"The performances are outstanding across the board. The direction and writing are masterful." Posted Mar 14, 2008	Funny Games (2008)	50%
4/4	"This is animation most animate, a kid-pic so rare, that even adults will fall off their chairs!" Posted Mar 14, 2008	Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who! (2008)	78%
1/4	"This much-delayed film cries out for consideration for Worst CGI, Most Annoying Narrator, Lamest Dialogue and Dumbest Action Hero." Posted Mar 7, 2008	10,000 B.C. (2008)	9%
2.5/4	"This may be just another bank job, like many you've seen before, but here's the payoff: it's a heist that actually looks real for once." Posted Mar 7, 2008	The Bank Job (2008)	78%
3.5/4	"A drama based on true historical events that leaves no conscience unchallenged." Posted Feb 29, 2008	The Counterfeiters (2008)	95%
3/4	"*The uncharitable would change the subtitle to A Film Without Plot. But to do so would mean ignoring a rich character study that finds mystery in the mundane." Posted Feb 29, 2008*	Continental - A Film without Guns (2008)	n/a
3/4	"You can't help but marvel, and laugh at, Ferrell's indefatigable enthusiasm and willingness to make a complete ass of himself." Posted Feb 29, 2008	Semi-Pro (2008)	21%
2/4	"Long before the movie ends, it slips right off the sprockets." Posted Feb 22, 2008	Be Kind Rewind (2008)	67%
3.5/4	"*There's just one thing wrong with The Band's Visit: it's fiction, not a documentary. You want a story as warm as this to be real, because good news is scarce from the Middle East." Posted Feb 15, 2008*	The Band's Visit (2007)	98%
2.5/4	"Romero turns his no-frills production into an asset." Posted Feb 15, 2008	George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead (2008)	61%
2/4	"*Logic takes the greatest leap in Jumper, a sci-fi thriller that plays like a frog jacked on steroids." Posted Feb 14, 2008*	Jumper (2008)	16%
3/4	"A rude and riotous laugher." Posted Feb 8, 2008	In Bruges (2008)	79%
3/4	"[Director Yung Chang] and lenser Wang Shi Qing use powerful images, subtlety and a little humour to apprise the viewer of the human and cultural issues at stake." Posted Feb 8, 2008	Up The Yangtze (2008)	94%
