Fresh 82/100	Fresh 91%	Frost/Nixon (2008)	" Frost/Nixon proves that though history can be inspiring, in film it can be an inconvenience, one readily repaired with the phrase "based on a true story."" — Paste Magazine Posted Dec 5, 2008
Rotten 30/100	Rotten 25%	Four Christmases (2008)	" Proving that quantity does not equal quality, director Seth Gordon (The King of Kong) presents Four Christmases, a weak, soulless holiday film in spite of its inclusion of five previous Oscar winners." — Paste Magazine Posted Dec 1, 2008

Fresh	Rotten 28%	Eagle Eye (2008)	" Even though the political, big-brother-is-watching, conspiratorial aspect of the film tries much too hard, the fast and furious pace of Eagle Eye makes for an entertaining time." — Paste Magazine Posted Oct 13, 2008

Fresh	Fresh 85%	2 Days In Paris (2007)	" If Woody Allen's neurotic Alvy and Diane Keaton's Annie in Annie Hall had borne children it's a good bet they would have turned out like Marion (Julie Delpy) and Jack (Adam Goldberg) in 2 Days in Paris." — Paste Magazine Posted Jul 22, 2008
Fresh	Fresh 88%	3:10 to Yuma (2007)	" *A mini-epic on the historical changes of the old west...serving as a just tribute to earlier, classic westerns such as The Searchers* and, more recently, Unforgiven.*" — Paste Magazine* Posted Jul 22, 2008
