"A two-hour-and-fifteen-minute sugar rush of a film, dazzling and exciting, a little too frantic and a little too long. " -- Film Blather

" I am so tired of these miserable things that pass for romantic comedies these days, thoughtless assembly-line products that recycle the same components in ever-dumber packaging over and over again." -- Film Blather

"Every time the movie feels like it's about to cross over into the realm of the genuinely inspired, something or someone slams on the brakes. " -- Film Blather

"A movie for those of us who have wanted to see Wong Kar Wai's talents applied to storytelling rather than abstraction." -- Film Blather

"For something that was pitched as a screwball comedy, Leatherheads is kind of lumbering, unwieldy, and awkward." -- Film Blather

"Precise, clever, wonderfully strange, and so funny it hurts, it is simply the best studio comedy since The 40-Year Old Virgin." -- Film Blather

The Promotion (2008)67%

"Enormously entertaining storytelling but highly problematic documentary filmmaking." -- Film Blather

Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008)57%
/
C
 
"In its desperation to deliver an action-packed suspense set piece of an ending, 21 asks the audience to suspend all disbelief, and basically begs to be laughed at." -- Film Blather

"This out-of-nowhere wonder charms from the first frame to the last, and joins Charlie Bartlett on the list of early-2008 films that are both wholesome and intelligent." -- Film Blather

Penelope (2008)53%

"I am sick to death of the clueless, arrogant buffoon that Will Ferrell has made his stock-in-trade, and desperate to see the talented comic do something -- anything -- else." -- Film Blather

Vantage Point (2008)37%
/

"Charlie Bartlett is rated R but is perfect, even salutary for young teens and older tweens. It's sincere, unabashedly positive, smart and funny -- a supernaturally rare combination." -- Film Blather

"After lovingly setting up the intricate relationships among its characters Spiderwick loses itself in the action and pretty special effects, only recovering in time to do a rushed, pat wrap-up." -- Film Blather

"At its best when it considers the shell of a man its hero has become; the ways that war and violence have become a part of his being, and what that has done to him." -- Film Blather

"If Cassandra's Dream doesn't have the heft of Match Point, mostly due to an ending that tries too hard, I'd argue that it's a much more human film." -- Film Blather

"You won't miss much if you choose to let 27 Dresses come and go this month -- except perhaps the unassuming starring debut of a comedienne who, I suspect, will soon become a Hollywood powerhouse." -- Film Blather

"It's a hell of a visceral experience -- but it's a purely visceral experience, apparently to the point of causing some viewers to vomit. Unless you're one of those unfortunate few, you'll soon forget the details." -- Film Blather

"a small, personal film spruced up with a touch of the marketable. 'Lovely' is the best word to describe it." -- Film Blather

"I'm glad the artform that Zucker-Abahams-Zucker brought us in the 1980's survives. It's gotten raunchier, meaner, maybe rougher, but it lives on." -- Film Blather

Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (2007)74%
/
B+
 
"The sub-par singing detracts from the film, as it must. Then again, the whole point is that Tim Burton is smart enough not to make Sweeney Todd about the songs." -- Film Blather

"By far the funniest thing about this painful, if not quite insufferable, family comedy from Fox is its bold stance against merchandising and tie-in marketing." -- Film Blather

"The problem is not that The Golden Compass has been stripped of its rabble-rousing anti-Christian content, though it surely has been. The problem is that the rest of it has been sterilized too." -- Film Blather

"Even the legion of Ritchie fans hooked on the kineticism and casual violence of Snatch will surely turn on the man after seeing Revolver. He has added an insufferable pretense to his usual smugness." -- Film Blather

"Far from the year's worst film, but it might be the year's biggest debacle -- it's hugely, ostentatiously bad." -- Film Blather

"There are problems here, but they're of the good-natured variety -- the flaws of a smart film that aims high." -- Film Blather

"Part of the reason it works is that the film at least tries to make the Kid something other than a face you'd see on a cereal box." -- Film Blather
