3/4	" Chabrol is a past master at visual storytelling and a stiletto wit." Posted Oct 2, 2008	A Girl Cut in Two (2008)	85%
.5/4	" No, he didn't." Posted Oct 2, 2008	Allah Made Me Funny (2008)	53%
2.5/4	" Despite the impersonal sameness of the material, it moves along at a good clip, rarely letting a one-note joke outstay its welcome." Posted Oct 2, 2008	How to Lose Friends & Alienate People (2008)	35%
1/4	" A kamikaze flight of a movie that presents itself like a weighty Oscar contender. If there were a category for Best Unintentional Self-Parody, it would be a shoo-in." Posted Oct 2, 2008	Flash of Genius (2008)	59%
3/4	" One advantage that Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist has over the typical teen romantic comedy is a terrific soundtrack that perfectly matches the fleeting loyalties of teenage love." Posted Oct 2, 2008	Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (2008)	71%
1.5/4	" Blindness is an apocalypse movie for sophisticates; it'll work for you if you're more comfortable name-checking Camus' The Plague than 28 Days Later." Posted Oct 2, 2008	Blindness (2008)	37%
2.5/4	" Maher's antireligion documentary, Religulous, has numerous blasts of raucous humor amid passages that feel like a screed." Posted Oct 2, 2008	Religulous (2008)	65%
3/4	" Appaloosa is one of those movies that creeps up on you after the fact." Posted Oct 2, 2008	Appaloosa (2008)	76%
3.5/4	" The Duchess gives us a gorgeous world, a detailed picture of a time and place that could have been painted by Constable, Gainsborough or Watteau. But you wouldn't want to live there." Posted Sep 26, 2008	The Duchess (2008)	60%
1/4	" It's a film, I guess, but just barely." Posted Sep 26, 2008	All Roads Lead Home (2008)	0%
1.5/4	" The story needs rage and poetry and red-blooded sensuality, and we get respectable stodginess." Posted Sep 26, 2008	Nights in Rodanthe (2008)	27%
1/4	" The film is a rag bag of concepts and characters from earlier, vastly better movies." Posted Sep 26, 2008	Eagle Eye (2008)	28%
3/4	" Miracle is far from the sensitive racial politics Lee is capable of delivering, but darned if it isn't rousing good fun." Posted Sep 26, 2008	Miracle at St. Anna (2008)	30%
3/4	" Transforming the calamitous past into the springboard for sexy, satirical fantasy, Menzel tells his tale through the experiences of Jan Dite, a waiter fixated on his dream of becoming a hotel owner and millionaire." Posted Sep 18, 2008	I Served the King of England (2008)	81%
1.5/4	" ... will leave you slightly better informed than two hours spent staring at a wall." Posted Sep 18, 2008	Battle in Seattle (2008)	53%
3/4	" It makes good on the clich� 'it'll make you laugh; it'll make you cry' by providing clever comedy and stock sentimentality without feeling tired." Posted Sep 18, 2008	Ghost Town (2008)	86%
3/4	" Trouble the Water proves that a couple of gutsy amateurs with a home video camera can work wonders." Posted Sep 18, 2008	Trouble the Water (2008)	97%
3/4	" Slick, savvy and well executed, Lakeview Terrace is a typical studio release polished to a blinding sheen thanks to a superior cast and Neil LaBute, America's most dazzlingly gifted un-famous film director." Posted Sep 18, 2008	Lakeview Terrace (2008)	42%
3/4	" How incongruous that while veteran studio heads prepare slates of comic book movies, the slackers behind this $12,000 gem have made one of the most mature films of the year." Posted Sep 11, 2008	In Search of a Midnight Kiss (2008)	85%
1.5/4	" *Despite its proud legacy and promising cast, The Women* is a miscarriage of comedy.*" Posted Sep 11, 2008*	The Women (2008)	10%
3.5/4	" Shot, scored and edited like a paranoid conspiracy thriller, but acted with comic exuberance by a brilliant ensemble cast, it presents itself seriously while making hardly any sense at all." Posted Sep 11, 2008	Burn After Reading (2008)	78%
1.5/4	" Enduring a contrived and convoluted crime drama would be worthwhile if it featured powerhouse performances from the two best screen actors of their generation. Such is not the case." Posted Sep 11, 2008	Righteous Kill (2008)	23%
1.5/4	" Cheadle usually melts seamlessly into his roles. He's less convincing here, however." Posted Aug 26, 2008	Traitor (2008)	53%
3/4	" *An impressive first feature by writer/director Courtney Hunt, Frozen River* boasts considerable suspense-movie tension and a compelling emotional journey for its foreground characters.*" Posted Aug 22, 2008*	Frozen River (2008)	86%
3/4	" *Fleming saves most of his energy for the blowout final production numbers, which play like demented outtakes from High School Musical." Posted Aug 22, 2008*	Hamlet 2 (2008)	63%

1.5/4	" *Two great cuts don't make an album and two fine supporting performances don't make The Rocker* worthwhile.*" Posted Aug 19, 2008*	The Rocker (2008)	36%
2/4	" Henry Poole works hard to convert us, even pulling out quotes from Noam Chomsky, but it feels a little too much like a bumper sticker." Posted Aug 14, 2008	Henry Poole Is Here (2008)	36%
1.5/4	" Viewers who are old enough to eat without a bib are unlikely to find much of interest in the procession of puns and generic zero-gravity gags that fill out the film's running time." Posted Aug 14, 2008	Fly Me To The Moon (2008)	17%
3/4	" Mike Judge's annual compilation of independent animation gathers more than two dozen funny short subjects in a gallery of mind-blowing animation from tomorrow's top animators." Posted Aug 14, 2008	The Animation Show 4 (2008)	86%
1.5/4	" *George, if this is the best you can do, please give us Star Wars: The Final Tie-In* soon.*" Posted Aug 14, 2008*	The Clone Wars (2008)	19%

3/4	" Tropic Thunder works double duty. It's both a sharp satire of filmland's bigger-is-better mind-set and a prime example of the heavyhanded era it stands in." Posted Aug 12, 2008	Tropic Thunder (2008)	83%
3.5/4	" Loneliness, loss and capricious love guide the fortunes of three families in this powerful, beautifully realized drama by German-Turkish writer/director Fatih Akin." Posted Aug 8, 2008	The Edge of Heaven (2008)	90%
3.5/4	" There's nothing on movie screens now that can compare with the footage of Petit's performance." Posted Aug 8, 2008	Man on Wire (2008)	100%
3/4	" When the origami model of the plot finally unfolds, and the well-justified surprises are disclosed, there are still a couple of revelations up the Duplass brothers' sleeves." Posted Aug 8, 2008	Baghead (2008)	78%
1/4	" As the film's triple-threat writer/director/star, Bishop isn't noticeably talented." Posted Aug 8, 2008	Hell Ride (2008)	11%
3.5/4	" Pineapple Express is the unlikeliest comedy of the summer. It's also going to be one of the best-loved." Posted Aug 5, 2008	Pineapple Express (2008)	68%
3/4	" *The look and feel of American Teen* is authentically 21st century, but the rites of passage it documents are timeless.*" Posted Jul 31, 2008*	American Teen (2008)	69%
3/4	" Swing Vote captures the spirit of an election year when many once-apathetic Americans are keenly interested in the outcome. We have met the enemy and he is us. But so is the hero." Posted Jul 31, 2008	Swing Vote (2008)	38%
2.5/4	" First-time writer/director Celine Sciamma focuses exclusively, empathetically and insightfully on her protagonists' coming-of-age experiences." Posted Jul 25, 2008	Water Lilies (2007)	79%
1.5/4	" Low in budget, inspiration and excitement, the film feels less like a bigger, better, widescreen reworking of the old goblins-and-G-men show than a forgotten script agonizingly stretched to feature length." Posted Jul 25, 2008	The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008)	32%
1/4	" There is no plot, no sense, symmetry or structure to this train wreck." Posted Jul 25, 2008	Step Brothers (2008)	55%
3.5/4	" Tell No One maintains a rewarding balance of genuine emotion and high-tension entertainment. See it and tell everyone." Posted Jul 18, 2008	Tell No One (2008)	92%
1.5/4	" The film's creators haven't learned the Pixar strategy of creating a resonant story as the foundation of a film. So we get a formulaic tale of a lazy nonconformist who learns to take his responsibilities seriously and saves the day." Posted Jul 18, 2008	Space Chimps (2008)	35%
3.5/4	" The adaptation of the long-running stage hit is a crowd-pleasing gusher of escapism, not the least of which is respite from summertime teen action fare." Posted Jul 17, 2008	Mamma Mia! (2008)	53%
4/4	" Nolan hasn't simply made a popcorn movie for brainiacs. He's an increasingly self-assured director of action sequences." Posted Jul 16, 2008	The Dark Knight (2008)	95%
3/4	" [Herzog is] a filmmaker ideally suited to recognize and celebrate...deep irony." Posted Jul 11, 2008	Encounters At the End of the World (2007)	94%
3/4	" 'Nonstop Estonian folk music' might not be a great format for a radio station, but it sure works for The Singing Revolution." Posted Jul 11, 2008	The Singing Revolution (2007)	84%
